The Willows
The property also features a summer estate built in 1913 called "The Willows" which is operated as a Bed and Breakfast.

The Willows was built in 1913 for Miss Charlotte Baker, a patron of the arts who operated a finishing school for girls in her native Boston. The entire project was completed for $50,000. Local newspaper accounts of the time clearly thought this to be quite an extravagant sum to spend on a summer home.
The name Willows was chosen because of the stately willow trees that lined the curving entry drive. Miss Baker enjoyed her home for a number of years and was active in the arts in the summer community. The great room with magnificent views of the bay was her conservatory and she frequently hosted concerts, poetry readings, piano recitals and other affairs connected with the summer art scene. When not otherwise in use, the conservatory served as Miss Baker's art studio, where she liked to paint scenes of Frenchman's Bay as viewed from her picture window.

After Miss Baker's death, The Willows was acquired by Sir Harry Oakes. Oakes was a multi-millionaire businessman who also had homes in England and the Bahamas. Lady Oakes preferred to summer in Maine to escape the oppressive summer heat of the Bahamas and Sir Harry would join her when the demands of his business empire allowed.
In the summer of 1947, a wild fire destroyed much of Bar Harbor including most of the summer homes. Where once there were over 200 summer estates, after the fire only a few remained and Lady Oakes disposed of the property since none of her former acquaintances rebuilt. The property changed hands a number of times and fell into disrepair until the Cough family acquired it, lovingly restored the Willows and began to operate it as a Bed and Breakfast.

The grounds at "The Willows" are very spacious and have a park-like feel. Here, in a nutshell, is what to expect when you arrive at The Willows.
