We suggest you visit our primary site for a complete story .

Stockton Springs is a historic town in upper Penobscot Bay, one of the 10 top sailing bays in the world. We are approx. 6 miles from the Penobscot Narrows Bridge & Observatory and the original Fort Knox. The Observatory is the tallest in the Western Hemisphere. Stockton Springs also houses a beautiful and unusually shaped light house at Fort Point State Park, our light house is the most "inland" and most controversial light house in the U.S. and was absolutely necessary because of Penobscot Bay and the Penobscot River.

Further, we are approx. 6 miles from Sears Island, the largest uninhabited island on the East coast, where you may hike, bike, X country ski, pick a peck of clams, find sand dollars and sea glass - and just enjoy yourself in quiet contentment. And, approx. 7 miles to Maine's oldest marine museum, the Penobscot Marine Musuem with a very green campus housing 12 buildings, most on the historic register. Its a fun museum and very educational - loved by people of all ages.

We have beautiful fall foliage that normally lasts longer along the coast than in-land. 2009 promises to be good with the leaves hanging on longer due to the inordinate amount of rain we had this past spring & summer.

We are centrally located between Belfast & Bucksport, with a 35 minute drive to Bangor. Wonderful restaurants, both family & upscale, fresh foods, great antiquing, flea marketing, galleries, wineries, breweries, unique stores and the #1 rug hooking studio in the U.S. You can get to most all of Maine's great sites in easy day tours - including Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park, but you won't want to miss our very beautiful State Parks & Historic sites.

 Lilac Place, Stockton Springs, ME, October 28, 2009

By Jerome Hirtz (Holts Summit, MO USA)

Lilac Place is highly recommended as a staging point for both sides of Penobscot Bay. The rental is very reasonable, nicely furnished and equipped.

 

 Great place to stay on the mid-coast, August 22, 2009

By BT (Middle Tennessee)

My family (wife,son,myself)recently stayed here on a trip through Maine. Very clean, comfortable,affordable spot centrally located to Belfast, Camden/Rockport, Acadia, etc.Also, a fishing pier at Fort Point is nearby so I could fish while everyone else slept in.The kitchen had everything you need if you don't want to eat out every single meal. A word of advice - if you want luxury or to be in the thick of restaurants,bars,lots of people and touristy places then Stockton Springs isn't the place for you.It is a very small, quiet village but there are nice restaurants within 5-10 minutes of the apartment. Also, Belfast is very close by and it turned out to be one of our favorite towns on the whole coast.For our purposes, the upstairs apartment was perfect and we would definetly stay here again. I rated it 5 stars because of everything mentioned above.
