Ask a questionAbout Andrew Pierce
The property and the surrounding area are very dear to me. We donated thousands of acres to the State of Maine for a Maine State Land Reserve which is now enjoyed and respected by enthusiastic visitors. We work hard to keep our remaining private peninsula pristine and in complete respect to the natural beauty of the area. I grew up in the Bangor and Downeast area and have a strong connection to the Acadia region.
Andrew Pierce purchased this Cabin in 1933
Why Andrew Pierce chose East Hancock
Our property is surrounded by two proximal reserves: 2000+ acres east of Donnell Pond and 4500 acres northeast of our Lake. The mountains and lakes formed by the Tunk Mountain Pluton constitute one of the most distinctive landmarks of the East Coastal Region. The two reserves include mid-elevation (~1,300 foot) summits of Tunk Mountain, Black Mountain, and Caribou Mountain as well as Tilden Pond, and Little Long Pond. web site: maine.gov/doc/nrimc/mnap/reservesys/tunklake.htm
What makes this Cabin unique
The State’s best private beach, cleanest water and swimming, fantastic views and sunsets, well maintained cabin and the very close proximity to the Maine coast and Acadia National Park. A perfect romantic get-a-way or a memorable family Maine woods, lake and coastal experience!
