13125Satterlee Tea House
  • Reference
  • Structures, Tower
  • Acadia National Park, Lafayette National Park
  • Great Head
According to an article entitled "The Stone Tower on Great Head" by Gladys O'Neil in the Journal of Friends of Acadia and reprinted in "The Rusticator's Journal" (1993, Friends of Acadia), the observatory was actually a stone tea house tower built in 1915. The land (Great Head and Sand Beach) was bought by J.P. Morgan in 1910 as a gift for his daughter, Louisa Satterlee. The great fire of 1947 damaged the tower and destroyed the three nearby bungalows. Louisa Satterlee's daughter, Eleanor, donated the land two years after the fire to Acadia National Park. For safety reasons, what was left of the tower after the fire was torn down so that only the foundation remains.

A landmark along the Shore Path was the Musgrave Tea Tower. In 1881, New York banker Thomas Musgrave built Edgemere, a Shingle-style cottage designed by William R. Emerson. Five years later he added a second cottage, Mare Vista, to his property. Musgrave's tower contained a second-floor tearoom and an attached bowling alley and dance hall." - "Bar Harbor" by Earle G. Shettleworth Jr., Postcard Series, Arcadia Publishing, Charleston, South Carolina, 2011, p. 50. The Musgrave Tea Tower was built by Thomas Bateson Musgrave (1831-1903) and his wife, Frances 'Fannie' Eleanor (Jones) Musgrave. Archivists researching the life of the Musgraves embark upon a sea of stories combining opulence, litigation and controversy.
