We stayed through Christmas and New Year's, and had a most comforting and tranquil time. Despite the snow and cold, there are some wonderful walks and hikes in the near vicinity. Even from the front door down to the beach or through the woods can make for a nice stroll. The nearby towns in the winter are uneventful, but enough remains open to avoid cabin fever, and many people are still out and about and quite friendly.
The house itself is most comfortable, cozy, and inviting. There is plenty of room to work in the library and kitchen, or to read or relax in the living room. Lovely views of the ocean and sunrise over the outlying islands from the second floor; serene woodscape from the backyard. Quite pleasantly, everything one needs is available (or can be provided by the hosts) from washer and dryer to kitchen knives.
Highly recommended!

| I can not thank you enough, Steve and Gretchen. You have a wonderful family and many thanks for allowing me to be a part of it for my stay. Your farmhouse is amazing and the close proximity to everything I was looking for was a plus. My first visit to Maine will not be my last. I loved the view from Mt. Battie, the schooner ride in Camden, the visit to the Portland Lighthouse and the many selections of seafood restaurants. I look forward to seeing you again in the future. I only wish the ocean was warmer but that is only a small sacrifice to make for such a wonderfulk time. Thank you again. |

Steve & Gretchen,
Thanks so much for the great accommodations while we visited the amazing East Coast-what a perfect, central location to many of the places we wanted to visit, and very comfortable atmosphere as well! |

We stayed at the farmhouse while renovations were still going on -- you can't beat the location. It is within walking distance of lovely Lincolnville Beach and early a.m. walkers can stop in right across from the beach for coffee and yummy breakfast sandwiches at the beach store -- lovely shops right there too -- and Camden Harbor, five min. away is a lovely place to relax.
If you are going to relax though, you can do that every season, except winter, right there in the beautiful gardens right outside your door. The house is rustic and charming and perfect for a family or two couples to share. We loved our time there. Even though it was in November and a bit chilly to sit outside, we enjoyed exploring the area -- so much to see and do there.
