Campobello Island is quite unique. It is actually in New Brunswick Canada. To get there through Canada you have to take a very small ferry to Deer Island drive around to the other side of the island and then take a second small ferry to Campobello. FDR had a summer cottage on Campobello so the US built a bridge so he could get there. No gas or many stores so you just back and forth to Maine for these items. Great provincial park there and a great restaurant that serves fresh lobster which you pick and the lady at the store will take you out the back where the pot is always boiling and you drop them in and wait. The East Quoddy light house is apparently the most photographed lighthouse out there. The tides are so hight you can walk down the rock by way of ladders out onto the ocean floor and then up the ladders onto the light. After you leave and the tide comes in you cant believe there is 20 ft deep water separating where you walked to get to the light. Worth the trip Maybe go there this year again
