Baker Island Dance Floor
Southwest Harbor Public Library
Description:
The Baker Island “Dance Floor,” is a series of huge flat slabs of granite found on the south shore, where area-islanders would hold dances on warm summer evenings. Many visitors come here for an “off the beaten path” experience and because of its unique and pleasant setting. “I believe the Thorpe family was instrumental in forming a corporation to purchase a plot of land on Baker’s Island where the dance floor ledges are located to protect the site. When the tremendous sea during a violent storm moved and tipped the large flat rocks out of place a crew of men was sent out to jack them back level.” – The Stanleys of Cranberry Isles…and Other Colorful Characters, Fisheries of Cranberry Island Chapter [show more]
