One of Maine’s most rugged and beautiful roads, the “Lower Enchanted Road”, leads you to one of Maine’s most rugged and beautiful waterfalls at the stunning “Grand Falls!” Beginning off Route 201 north of The Forks, Lower Enchanted Road runs roughly 14 miles through thick forest, rolling timberland, quiet clearings, and some of the most remote scenery in Somerset County. The unpaved road feels like a true backcountry adventure, with long stretches of gravel, deep woods, mountain views, and frequent chances to spot moose, black bears, and other wildlife. Its main reward is Grand Falls, hidden near the road’s far end along the Dead River.

Because Lower Enchanted Road is privately owned and actively used by logging companies, visitors need to drive carefully and pull completely aside whenever a logging truck approaches. GPS can also be unreliable, especially around road splits, so staying on the main route is important. Grand Falls stretches about 100 feet across in a wide horseshoe shape and drops nearly 40 feet into the river below. From the parking area near the rafting put-in, a short trail crosses a metal footbridge and follows the river to the overlook. Water levels can rise dramatically during scheduled dam releases, making the falls even louder and more powerful.

It’s still summer, but seasons change. Labour Day has come and gone. Temps this week have remained high and yes, it feels like summer. Even the lake is warmer! But seasons change. Restaurants are less busy, parking spots can be easily found and zipping through Port Carling takes no time at all.

Back to school makes a difference. It’s not that the leaves are turning or that nightfall is more of a thud than a prolonged event. It’s that the recreators have gone. Sure, some remain (and happily enjoy finding parking spaces available) but the hubbub of midsummer has become a languid stroll to a lakeside chair, followed by a quiet time to reflect (some call it a nap). The pace is slower and more relaxed.

September takes on the mellow fruitfulness as described by the poet John Keats

“ Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;”

It’s a special time. Our favourite, in fact. The season has changed, and that makes all the difference, whether on the lake or enjoying a reflective thought on the dock. Want to be enveloped? Try being here in September.

This September there’s lots to see in terms of property, too. The number of new listings makes it seem like spring! Take a look…

MarketWATCH Muskoka: 31 August 2023

Hard to realize the cool nights are not an aberration. Autumn is definitely creeping over the transom. Sunset cruises require an extra layer - especially if it’s a star gazing trip too. Even with all the lakeside activity and cottages lit up, stars in these parts outshine anything that can be seen in the GTA. The next few nights will be wonderful viewing. Constellations aglow, Venus on the rise and the super moon waning. There’s a story to tell.

The sky at night is never still. To co-opt a phrase ‘the scene never sleeps’.

And scenery? There’s a tree by our place that has completely turned a deep, burning red. Another is having trouble making up its mind; all green but one branch bright red, like a torch, lighting the way. These nights are perfect for warming by the fire (inside or outside). I think of it as marshmallow season … that sweet treat as a reward for a good summer.

But it’s not over. Merely changing the gears. As school starts, so does the fall season. And what a season appears to be in the offing! If any of this week’s listings (new or repriced) are an indicator, there’s lots to see. Check them out!
