Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! The last time I was here I did the trails. They're a fun hike that isn't too difficult and there are benches periodically spread out through the trails. There's one area where you go up (or down) a very steep hill, so if you have balance issues, weak knees or ankles, I recommend bringing trekking poles. From this trail, there is an abandoned boat and a barge you can view. You can get to them eventually by continuing along the trail, eventually taking a left onto an unofficial trail, and then bushwhacking. Beware, the beach there sitting on is very muddy, so be prepared to get your feet wet or to view from the edge of the woods.
The rest of the park really speaks for itself. Gorgeous ocean views, thundering sounds of waves even on a calm day, view of islands off in the distance, the sound of gulls, smell of salt, a breeze (or more sometimes), and all around pleasant and calming to be at. The pond on the other side is equally beautiful, and a calm counterpart to the ocean.
In order to help maintain and preserve these parks, please be sure to pay the fees! They're cash only. I have attached an image of the current fees to this review.
Beautiful location. If you go farther down the road till you end up at a boat launch take the trail through the woods to find a beautiful cove.
This is a small sandy and rocky beach with the most fragrant dune roses. There was plenty of parking and a beautiful picnic area across the road from the beach but little else. No trash cans, just two primitive outhouses. Cost is $4 for Maine residents and $6 per person for those of us from out of state. Payment was cash in a post on the honor system.
Beautiful park, with wonderful views of the ocean and a very nice lagoon.
Okay, so I didn't think much of this park at first. I was there in late October but there was a beech and a pond. But then I found the trails and went for a walk/hike. This was a wonderful and cool place to explore. The Starr trail starts at the rightmost part of the park by the statue.
Our first time at the beach. Our family was looking forward to enjoying that beautiful day. When we got there with our Chihuahua we could not go on the beach. So our granddaughters who are 8 and 10 would not be disappointed I had to stay on the park side so I could not enjoy the beach. It was 82 and bright sun no clouds. There needs to be a few tables that have a roof over them. It was very hot. I also saw just in the first 20 minutes 6 cars come and not pay any fees. There needs to be someone collecting the fees on the weekends. The outhouses wee clean, and the signage was good. Very clean too. I understand about dogs but mine is small in a carrier. I did see someone who took a dog on a leash on the beach even though the signs are there.
Beautiful little park. We drove in past the park as it wasn't opened yet and we're able to watch the lobsterman ck their traps and the ferry arrive from the island. Then back to park for a walk on the sand beach. Peaceful place to spend the day.
There is more to the Rogue Bluffs State Park than you would imagine. On one side is the Simpson Pond where you will see kayaks and on the other side is the Rogue Bluff Beach which is a very scenic white sand beach. I like it because they have picnic tables, bathrooms and grills. Nice place to visit.
