Absolutely LOVED visiting here…read more Alex our tour guide in the Aquarium center did a phenomenal job! She was informative and gave us a private tour showing us all the animals. I learned that there is a very rare cotton candy lobster and an orange and blue colored ones too! They have a 10 year old female named "Big Mama" and she is going to give birth to a thousand eggs! There is a small one year old lobster and a 5 year old. I learned so much about about the aquatic animals and got to touch slugs, starfish, sea cucumbers and more! Highly recommend supporting educational institutions like this! Enjoy this lovely place while visiting Acadia Bational Park!

There are areas that are sorted by global region and then by prehistoric periods. They have interactive exhibits for kids (or adults) throughout all 3 floors of the store. 7-year-old would have been wild for this store and even as an adult saw so many cool books that I wanted. I managed to escape with only having purchased 2 books and a journal. The salesperson was very friendly and available if help was needed. Great selection of books, would much rather support an independent bookstore like this than a big box store or online retailer. Great value for being able to look through such a cool collection of books related to all things nature and science!

Meh. Not worth the $10…read more It's small and underwhelming. I guess I guess I gave it an extra star on account of the fact that it's cool they support the local native Americans. But to go just for that isn't the best idea. They need to put more on display for the price. It should be two dollars to get in. That's all.

The staff is friendly and the store is well-stocked. I decided to try the pizza on one of my visits and overall it wasn't too bad. The crust was very fluffy and the pizza was loaded with cheese (they did NOT hold back). The pizza had a soft base and the sauce was excellent! My only complaint would be the excessive cornmeal on the bottom of the pie. I'm still giving the store 5-stars for the good prices, good selection, friendly staff, and convenient location.

We…read morehad a couple of dressed-up, knowledgeable and idiosyncratic docents/tour guides (the Fort is strictly tour-guided), with a peculiarly interesting repertoire that sometimes over-shadowed the Fort's history being recited (at least for me). Nothing negative; just interesting. The Fort itself had never seen war and a good majority of the Fort has simply been recreated) so its historical history is strictly Maine -- I believe it may be the oldest standing wooden fort in the USA. Overall, if you like old forts and history, definitely take a tour.

A lot of pretend play areas, three floors but easily done in about 60-90 minutes for our 5 and 7 year olds.
