  • 1281 Main Street (Route 102)
"Beginning with the history of the houses of Somesville at the southern end of the settlement on the road to Southwest Harbor: there are several camps and cottages built in recent years around the shores of Echo Lake. Ernest Richardson has built two on the western side, Rolf Motz built a cottage close to the road on the eastern shore which he sold in 1935 to Mrs. O. C. Nutting. There are several others which have been owned by different people, and Ernest Richardson has a store and some overnight camps built in 1935-6 close to the road." – “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, 1938, p. 257. For some time Ernest was in business with his friend Otto Clyde Nutting (1875-1972) [O.C. Nutting] with whom he went hunting and fishing. "There are several small houses on the right side of the road [on the eastern shore of Echo Lake], owned by people who have been employed by Nutting and Richardson in their lumbering operations. This firm operated a portable saw mill in this vicinity for a few years." - “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, 1938, p. 258.

The camp was located on the bluff above Wasgatt Cove "on the east side of Some's Sound, a little to the north of the house of Mr. Asa Smallidge, and opposite Flying Mountain and the cliff of Dog Mountain on the western side of the Sound." "Charles [Eliot] did not know just where he would pitch the camp, but expected to find a suitable and central place somewhere between Otter Creek and Seawall Point. So, after picking up the camp equipment at a house on Waukeag Neck, he cruised along that shore and went up into Somes Sound and anchored in what we now call Wasgatt's Cove on the eastern shore. There, above the gravel bank, was a bit of open meadow with a good spring at the back and just to the north of the brook which is the outlet of Hadlock Pond fell with a little waterfall into the cove." - "The Champlain Society" fragment of manuscript by Samuel Atkins Eliot, 1931 - in the collection of the Mount Desert Island Historical Society. See also: "Charles Eliot, Landscape Architect, A Lover Of Nature And Of His Kind, Who Trained Himself For A New Profession, Practised It Happily And Through It Wrought Much Good," p. 26.
