Roosevelt's Campobello and Tea with Eleanor

Roosevelt's Campobello and Tea with Eleanor

August 2, 2016

Roosevelts Campobello summer home

Our plan while here at Seaview Campground was to visit Roosevelt's Campobello summer home on the island across from the campground. But to get there we had to drive about 100 miles round trip. We did see some more of the upper Maine territory on our journey to the New Brunswick, Canada entry point on the bridge to the International Park at Campobello.   

     

 After touring the home and learning some history from the docents. We then browsed the gift shop and got tickets to have “Tea with Eleanor” at the cabin down the road.

The Tea was a tradition enjoyed by Eleanor when she was in residence at the home. 

When we finished with the Tea we were gifted with a recipe book “Cookies for Eleanor”.

We enjoyed our visit and would recommend you see this place for yourself.

Good-by from Campobello
