Jul 7, Cooks Lobster House, Bailey Island, Maine

Only

13 miles from Brunswick - along Route 24, on Bailey Island, Maine, is

one of the most picturesque

places in New England to enjoy a Maine lobster dinner, or any other

meal for that

matter.

Surrounded on three sides by water, Cooks Lobster House

sits on its own peninsula of land off the larger

peninsula that

connects Great Island, Orr's Island and Bailey

Island.

You'll know you've arrived at Cook's Landing, also

known as Cook's Point, when

you cross the one-of-a-kind Bailey

Island

Cribstone Bridge - connecting Orr's to Bailey - and the

salty

air takes on the smell of lobster, shrimp, scallops, haddock and

clams. The famous restaurant is just off to your right,

as it has been for over 60

years.

Wait

a minute... Why not let Maine's own PotatoePete

tell

you more, with his "Cooks Lobster House You Can Get There from

Here" Video!

According to bangordailynews.com

Cooks Lobster House has

new owners! Nicholas and Jennifer Charboneau finalized their purchase

on

June 30, 2015, Among other exciting changes to the property is a plan

to rename the restaurant to Cook's

Lobster & Ale House.
