DIGBY LODGE is pink. The summer home of Caroline Duhring Baltzell, mother of University of Pennsylvania Professor E. Digby Baltzell, Chair of the Department of Sociology and creator of the term WASP, is nestled within Acadia National Park with a 15-minute drive to Bar Harbor--you have direct access to Park trails, and Norumbega Mountain is directly across the reservoir (no swimming allowed). The trail around the pond is a leisurely thirty minute walk. The house faces west, and the sunsets are lovely. There is an expansive deck where you can read, rest or just watch and listen to very active loons and bald eagles.
