Edgar M. Tennis Preserve — Attraction in Deer Isle

We did one of the big loops if you go all the way down to the shore and then stay right and go down that path. Please note there is hunting nerarby and it is required to wear orange from October I believe to April so be prepared with orange! We picked the dotted red sometimes scary path and everyone did fine. Had a 5, 4 and 2 year old in tow and two pups as well. Please know some of the trail can be really wet or muddy especially if it was raining the day before. Wearing sandals and socks (I know I forgot my good shoes at home) I managed to not get my socks wet! So if you are smart there are definitely ways around the puddle parts! So don't let that discourage you! So many good views all along the way. Went the day after Thanksgiving. The trail can be rooty or rocky at times, definitely not a smooth one. Just a couple small hills here and there but not a lot. Very enjoyable overall. Would rank this as a moderate trail...

Great little spot with a couple of different paths you can take. Rather hiking in the forest or meandering along the rocky shoreline, great to be out and enjoying nature. There are about 6-9 parking spots, but doesn't seem to be too busy. The trails are nice, however be ready for rock steps and tree roots more of the way :). Not too different then most...

Range of trails that can be very boggy in places, peak a boo views of lovely bays, lichen, moss and stone remains of old farmsteads. Moderately rough underfoot, and some other trails look demanding, so check the maps, but beautiful all around. Not too many parking spaces, we went in the first week of May and 5 of 8 spaces were taken!...
