Sandy Point Arts Retreat-Maine Workshops and Retreats

Specifically, the cottage has a studio with fiber (4 harness and back strap looms), sculpture - found/mosaics/tiles/wood, painting, drawing and general supplies for creative team building activities. The cottage has a beautiful hand made tile fireplace with plenty of wood and a 16 foot pine table for large group dining. There is a nature trail with cross country skiing in the winter and, of course, our 2-mile long Sandy Point Beach.

We also have access to the Sandy Point Community Hall for large space activities such as dancing, movement, performances, yoga or theater. The Sandy Point Community Hall was founded in 1823 and is within walking distance of the cottage. The Inn at French’s Point may be rented for more formal events you might plan.

This property is located in Sandy Point, Maine, a town of 50 people, at the mouth of Penobscot Bay. You will have your own private cove on a mile long sandy beach with screen house and postmodern found furniture and fire pit. It is 30 miles from both Bar Harbor (Acadia National Park), and Camden (home of the tall ships schooner fleet). It is very unique property built by an artist/professor and engineer; including a Brazilian granite counter in the kitchen, a nine piece light sculpture in the great room, a handmade tile grotto bathroom and fireplace in great room and Mexican suite full of objets d'art found on travels throughout Latin America. There are two decks and the entire water side of the house has ocean views.
