“Summer tourists who enter Mount Desert by the way of South-west Harbor are liable to receive very unfavorable impressions of this beautiful island. While approaching the shore, the most charming views are obtained, but after the first salutation their majesties the mountains become shy, and when the steamer reaches the pier they are wholly lost to sight. On landing, an ancient, fish-like smell is found to pervade the air around the dock in the vicinity of the lobster-boiling establishment, while the general aspect of the place is hardly inviting. By crossing the harbor to the Ocean House, the view of the mountains may indeed be regained, yet the prospect from the east side is tame.” - Rambles in Mount Desert With Sketches of Travel on The New-England Coast by B.F. DeCosta, p. 45 - 1871

Clifton House hotel had been razed in 1939 and the Northeast Harbor Fleet purchased the dock for access to the water on the east side of town. They rebuilt the dock. “The new Clifton Dock was made an ‘official station’ of the Cruising Club of America and a fueling resource for boats of all kinds, and has had a marine supply store, which made it invaluable to yachts.” -"History of the Northeast Harbor Fleet" by Joseph L. Grant, published by Sawyer Cove Press, Seal Cove, ME, 2006, p. 85.
