If you need quiet time to paint, draw, or write, you’ll find the workspace and location perfect for inspiration and creativity. Maine is known for its artists, and we have several in the family! There are a number of artistic touches throughout the suite, and you’re welcome to use the deck and outdoor space to set up your easel and paint.
The fully-furnished Family Room area is large, bright and full of books, magazines, games, music CDs and a 42-inch TV with access to OnDemand, Netflix, and Amazon. There is a dining area with a table that seats 4 (or 6 if needed); a hutch filled with dishes, flatware and glasses; a bar cart with a toaster and coffee maker; and an electric kettle, microwave and mini-fridge for your convenience. We'll have a few things in the mini-fridge (milk and cream for coffee, several bottles of water and juice), but you're welcome to stock your own goodies there. We'll provide coffee and tea for your enjoyment.
The private bathroom is newly remodeled and features a large, spacious shower. It’s all yours - no sharing with anyone. No need to bring your hair dryer, flat iron or curling iron, because you’ll find them here. We provide the works, including towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap and body lotion from local purveyors. If you need any extras, just ask!
Our laundry area is also located on the lower level, in the utility room. It’s for family use, but if you need to do some laundry in a pinch, please ask and we can accommodate your needs.
In the summer, we provide beach towels, picnic basket, blankets, cooler, totes, backpack - anything you might need for a day’s outing. Beach passes are reasonably priced, but you’re welcome to borrow ours if we’re not using it.
We have a cat (just mentioning, in case you have allergies), but they’ll stay with us. If you see any of them hanging around the back door, please don’t let them out!
There are tons to do in the area, in all seasons. Visit the Maine visitors' websites for a start (we can't link from this page but they're easy to find online).
And ask us. We’re happy to help plan out your visit.

Interaction with guests
We live here year-round and work from home, so we’re usually around. If not on site, we’re available by text and/or phone. We’ll always try to meet and greet you at some point. However, we will respect your privacy and if you’re here to escape- retreat and be left alone, we will certainly honor that too.
A little bit about us: Sam is a native Mainer and Kathryn is a Canadian, from southern Ontario. Both of us lived in Arizona for a number of years before returning back East, where life is better. We found our perfect home after a three-year search, and are happy to help others discover why Maine is so special.
Sam is an alternative energy consultant, specializing in solar energy development. He loves to go out walking and exploring, and can direct you to interesting places on or off the beaten path. He used to work in the seafood industry, so he can tell you what to look for and what to know if you go to the fish/lobster market.
Kathryn is a jewelry designer and writer. Her contemporary-style work can be found in several museum shops and galleries in Arizona and in Maine. She is happy to be learning the lingo of Maine (you CAN get theah from heah!), and thinks everyone here is so friendly. And it’s true!
Other things to note
You'll use a shared back entrance but will have your own private space just six steps down to the lower level. You can close your doors for complete privacy. The entire bedroom, family room, second bedroom and bathroom are completely private and all yours. No bathroom sharing!
