Down East Magazine quote: 'The house is operated like a self-service inn; it works like a hostel, albeit a deluxe one, or an inn with no innkeeper.'

EARLY CHECK-IN/LATE CHECK-OUT: We will negotiate an early check-in time and/or a late check-out time if there are no back-to-back groups with reservations.

We have FOUR houses, The Maine House #102687, The Farm House #131495, The Maine Country House #153426, and The Maine MountainView House #146327, all closed in close proximity of each other.

Let it also be noted that during the summer months (June, July, and August), we just book for a week at a time (Saturday to Saturday) for The Maine House and Farm House.

Spacious with beautiful lake views
Our church spent Easter weekend here and we loved it! We were a large group (22 adults and 15 children) in this house but felt like we had enough room. Favorite feature was the wrap around porch with dining table and large windows over looking the lake. The kitchen is well stocked. The host was very responsive. I would highly recommend. Just a note if you’re bringing children- there’s a nice amount of children’s books and a few games, but no toys. There is one high chair and 2 pack and plays.

Great city escape!
I came to this house with a group of friends to take a break from Boston city life and to do some leaf peeping. We all had a wonderful stay! The house is expansive and has a breathtaking lake view. The host is very responsive and helpful. Many hiking options nearby.

Oh the view
This place was perfect for our large group of families. Truthfully we spent almost all of our time outside and why wouldn’t you, with two docks, a beautiful yard and just a ton of frontage to the pond. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend to any large group.

Pluses and Minuses...
This is on a spectacular lake with a great yard and expansive water view. The canoes, kayaks, picnic tables and firepit were great. The kitchen is well appointed with nice appliances but they need a better cleaning of them and to fix the non-working burners. There were a lot of bathrooms, however very dated. The house needs some TLC, a deep cleaning and a considerable makeover... It needs new mattresses and furniture. It has a lot of potential. Despite the campiness of it, we had a great time and it was commensurate with the price for our family of 23. The pictures show it looking a little nicer than it is. Tim, the host was great and answered our questions leading up the the visit rapidly.
