In 1896, Day completed the summer estate, Bide-A- While , of J.L. Ketterlinus, a prominent American lithographer and business executive.

Born and raised in Northeast Harbor, Fred Lincoln Savage is known as Mount Desert Island’s most prolific architect, designing over 300 homes on the island and across Northeastern Maine. His homes are often identifiable by their shingle-style architecture which often featured heavy stone foundations using local granite, complex rooflines, and shingle siding. The Asticou Inn is one of the most recognizable of Savage’s designs. The original lodging, which was owned by Savage’s parents, was destroyed by fire in 1899 and designed and rebuilt by Fred Savage in 1901.
