Here are the directions to our house in Brooksville. Take our phone number with you in case you get lost:  207-326-9482.

  1. From North Brooksville
    • From the corner where Rt 175/176 (Bridge Road) makes a T-intersection with Rt 175 (Bagaduce Road) at the Brooksville town sign, turn left or south onto Rt 175 (Bagaduce Road). Go about 2.1 miles.
    • Turn left into Judy Point Lane. This is our unpaved lane. Ignore overgrown turnoffs and a pair of sheds to your right. About halfway down the hill you'll hit a fork with a gate on the left and no gate on the right. Go to the right. If you don't already see our house down at the water's edge, you soon will.

  2. From Blue Hill
    • Take Rt 15/176 (Mines Road) west out of town. Go about 4.2 miles, until you hit a T intersection.
    • Turn right or north onto Rt 176 (Graytown Road). Go about 2.4 miles, until you come to a Gulf Station and C&G Growers (Gray's Corner).
    • Turn left onto Rt 175/176 (Frank's Flats Road or Bridge Road). Go about 1.2 miles, past the Bagaduce Lunch, over the reversing falls, until you hit a T intersection at the sign for Brooksville.
    • Jump to Step 1.

  3. From Ellsworth

  4. From Bucksport
    • Take Rt 1 (also Rt 15) east out of town. A few miles out of town, Rts 1 and 15 diverge. Follow Rt 15, which requires a right turn at a Shell station.
    • Take Rt 15 south to North Penobscot. After 3.6 miles, turn right on Rt 199, toward Penobscot. After 5 miles, turn left on Rt 175, toward South Penobscot and Brooksville. Take this another 5 miles to C &G Growers.
    • When you come to a Gulf Station and C &G Growers on your right (aka Gray's Corner), turn right, onto Rt 175/176 (Frank's Flats Road or Bridge Road). Go about 1.2 miles, past the Bagaduce Lunch, over the reversing falls, until you hit a T intersection at the sign for Brooksville.
    • Jump to Step 1.

  5. From Deer Isle
    • Take Rt 15 north. Cross the bridge to the mainland.
    • Follow the road on the mainland about 1.3 miles to Rt 15/175 (Caterpillar Hill Road). Turn left. Go about 2.9 miles until you reach Black's Corner (Rt 175 or the Coastal Road).
    • Turn left or west at Black's Corner (Rt 175 or the Coastal Road). Go about 0.6 mile.
    • Turn right or north at Walker's corner (Rt 175 or the Bagaduce Road). Go about 1.9 miles.
    • Turn right into Judy Point Lane. This is our unpaved driveway. There is an immediate fork; follow the newer looking road to the left. Take this past the trailer to a second fork, where you will turn right. Our house is the only one on that branch of the road, at the bottom of the hill.

  6. From Bangor

  7. From Portland
    • Looking at a map, the most direct route is both slow and ugly. The best combination of speed and charm is probably to take Rt 95 to Augusta, then Rt 3 to Belfast, then Rt 1 to Bucksport. Then Jump to Step 4.
