and walking along the one-way park road loop. There are so many things to see: the cliffs, rocks and boulders along the cost line are spectacular and I especially enjoyed the vibrant colors and the ever changing landscape.\u201d<br \/>\n&#8211; Thomas Barothy<br \/>\n\u201cFor me, Schoodic provided a wonderful escape from the relatively crowded Mt. Desert Island portion of Acadia NP. I loved the isolation and the varied coastline. The mysterious character of the fog on Thursday morning was the highlight of my week in Maine.\u201d<br \/>\nWoody Stone<br \/>\n\u201cMy time at Schoodic Point challenged me to broaden my boundaries beyond the expansive coastal landscape. I found myself surrounded with intimate details from the whimsical pattern of feathers in a still pool of water to the dancing rhythm as sea meets the land to the soft details of a wildflower. I was engaged throughout my journey by all that Schoodic has to offer.\u201d<br \/>\nMichael Buffis<br \/>\n\u201cI found Schoodic to be quiet, beautiful and dramatic at the same time.<br \/>\nI enjoyed the landscape, seascapes and rockscapes.<br \/>\nI liked the quiet and isolation at Schoodic.\u201d<br \/>\nScott Tansey<br \/>\n\u201cThe best thing about Schoodic Point was experiencing mother nature.

I especially enjoyed the vibrant colors and the ever changing landscape.\u201d<br \/>\nJose Senna<br \/>\n\u201cSchoodic was both brooding yet enthralling. The remoteness and raw beauty captured my attention. The pond near the sea was magical; ancient and twisted beautiful trees. It drew me in trying to capture the moment. I will not forget. I will be back.\u201d<br \/>\nSherry Teefey<br \/>\n\u201cSchoodic was wild and deserted masterpiece of nature. I loved the rock formations and the ghostly islands that showed through the fog. I was especially moved and inspired by the world that was revealed at low tide, when kelp, rocks and tide pools revealed themselves as beautiful still life arrangements.\u201d<br \/>\nKathy Bristor<br \/>\n\u201cFog horn<br \/>\nPine scent on morning breeze<br \/>\n&#8212; an old friend.\u201d<br \/>\nBill Mauzy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jose Senna While Maine\u2019s Acadia National Park is one of the most visited parks in the nation, most visitors don\u2019t make it up to the lesser known Schoodic peninsula (about an hour and half away from Bar Harbor by road, less by boat).
