About this property

Rustic Charm close to Portland

My place is a quiet cabin in the woods hidden away just outside of the biggest city in Maine. Peaceful and private. My home is a country getaway with unique charm and has a feeling like no other. Close to downtown Portland, the Portland Jet Port, Freeport, beautiful Maine beaches, apple orchards, a Gorgeous wedding venue a mile away called Caswell Farm and close to trails for hiking or biking, my home has many options nearby. Its the perfect family vacation destination or business trip location. Wedding? It's a great spot for a family of 6 to stay. Looking for a romantic get away weekend? Look no further! Great spot for a honeymoon or anniversary celebration.

My place is set back off the road a bit. It has a good size front yard and a large back yard with ample areas for kids to run around, as well as a firepit. The perennial and annual gardens are kept natural and organic for the sake of all things wild and we love our greenhouse which is also used for wood storage in the winter.
There is a yurt on the property that is rented out as well. It is a separate listing so if you’re into glamping, this is the spot! It could also be an add on to the house if you have a big group. The driveway will be the only shared area so we ask guests to please respect each groups privacy.
Upon entering from the deck, you will find yourself in the hallway of hooks. The laundry room and the downstairs full bathroom are off the hook hallway. The bathroom has a clawfoot bathtub and other unique fixtures. The kitchen is next and its fully stocked with whatever you may need to cook at home. We provide coffee and tea while pantry items, condiments, herbs and spices are readily available. We added a Nespresso machine for those of you into that but at this time will not be providing the pods. Bring your own pods or they can be purchased at Shaws on Auburn st in Portland.
The next stop is the open concept dining room and living room. The dining room table can seat 4 and a highchair and the bar at the end of the kitchen can seat 4. The living room has a wrap around couch and a large screen tv. YouTube TV is provided. Firestick is used for streaming all your favorite apps. The woodstove is located here as well and the coziness is undeniable. If wood stoves are not your thing then no worries. There is a monitor heater that heats the whole house no problem.
Next, there are two doors heading into the downstairs bedroom which has a queen size bed and a super awesome heated mattress pad for those cold winter nights.
Next head up the stairs and enter the master bedroom which has the king size bed as well as the full size bed. High ceilings and a very unique shower are present here and are calling for a visit. The shower has a steam feature which is great for relaxation. There is a smaller tv with a dvd player and plenty of movies to choose from Also a chromecast player to stream with your apps.
My place is a very unique and magical space and I'm happy to help guests at anytime for any reason and to share this home that I am very proud of. Thanks for considering my place and feel free to ask any questions.
FYI I do have two security cameras located outside. One is on the front porch and the other is located on the side of the house pointed towards the driveway.
Lastly, please kindly book for the correct amount of people in your group as I do not allow parties or unauthorized guests. I aim to keep pricing competitive for groups of two so my listing price is set for two guests. After that four more people are allowed for a total of 6 guests with an extra person fee of 25$ per person per night after the initial 2. This fee helps pay for the extra cleaning, laundry and maintenance/utilities that occur with more guests. Lastly experience with a woodstove is preferred otherwise please use the monitor heater in winter.
