Taylor's Island is a spit of land that juts out from the north side of Mashomack into
Coecles Harbor.
The scenic sandbar features the rustic Taylor house that has since been the
subject of a large renovation and effort to preserve the land and its history. Large
boulders that were dropped by receding glaciers millions of years ago occupy the
shoreline. It's a good place to stop and take a break while paddling. But if you
decide to have a picnic lunch there please pick up your waste as we like to keep the
Island clean.
Now there is a group of preservationists that have been working to keep the
integrity of the small island intact and have recently secured funding to refurbish the
historical spot.
