My husband and I have stayed on Mackerel Cove four times within the last eight years. Yes, it is a hidden gem and one of our favorite areas of Maine. (See “A summer in Maine’s ‘hidden gem’,” October.) We hope it remains a hidden gem and does not become so popular that it becomes overcrowded and overpriced. We have seen this happen to another favorite of ours: Rockport, Massachusetts. Keep Harpswell a gem!

Who are we to judge?

I'm not sure what to make of your August article looking at the legacy of the Skolfield family and its "ties to slave economy." The article seems to suggest that we would all do well to "reexamine" this family and its legacy in the light of "new research."
