Description: The Collier House continues a tradition of over 100 years of Mount Desert Island hospitality. The 'Rusticators' began boarding on farms with local families to experience the outdoors, devote themselves to artistic expression and share food and fellowship with their hosts. No longer a working farm, Collier House still offers: an 1849 Farmhouse with private guest rooms and baths, dining room and common room with fireplace, a Gambrel style residence reminiscent of a barn and built into a slope, a Saltbox style 3 unit Carriage House, a 2 unit Cape style Pond House, and a lofty sky lit 2 unit Creek Retreat for a total of 13 units and 14 baths. Amenities include mountain views, a pond with paddle boat for summer use which is perfect for ice-skating in winter, hiking and cross country skiing trails, Jacuzzi tubs, antique furnishings, porches and decks, refrigerators and fireplaces. Surrounded by fields and woods the guest is still a short distance from a general store and restaurants.
