Acadia National Park | ROCKEFELLER WELCOME CENTER


The Rockefeller Welcome Center is part of the Schoodic Institute, an education and scientific research center within Acadia National Park. It is located on Big Moose Island, which is attached to the Schoodic Peninsula by a causeway. I did not visit the Rockefeller Welcome Center, so all I can report is that you can get park information here, purchase an Acadia National Park entrance pass, and peruse some exhibits about the former Navy Base that occupied the area. Hours are as follows:

  • Exhibits
    • 10 AM to 5 PM daily from Memorial Day through Columbus Day
    • 10 AM to 4 PM on weekdays the rest of the year
  • Business Matters
    • 10 AM to 5 PM on weekdays from Memorial Day through Columbus Day
    • 10 AM to 4 PM on weekdays the rest of the year

Times can always change, so be sure to get the latest schedule on the Schoodic Institute’s Welcome Center at Rockefeller Hall web page.
