Wonderful place!
We had a wonderful family vacation here! It was a beautiful location, remote but a short drive to lots of fun activities! The owner was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process! I loved that she reached out before hand and made sure we were all set! My kids loved the loft area - it was like their own little club house!

Great house in the woods!
Loved Tami’s spot. Felt like we were in the wilderness, surrounded by trees, water, and the stars. The house is super comfy and cozy. Very conveniently located for day trips all over Maine.

Stay in Maine for 70.3 Iron Man
I stayed at Tami's place in Bowdoin Maine for my 30th birthday where I was competing in the Iron Many 70.3 Maine. My boyfriend, dog and a few family members came up for the weekend to celebrate and cheer me on. The location was perfect as the bike route came all the way out to Bowdoin for miles 30-40 and I was able to test ride some of the course Saturday with my dad. The house was perfect for the 7 of us and they have a beautiful lot of land. We enjoyed the stay and really loved the screened in porch. We spent 95% of our time there just relaxing, reading and hanging out!

Great stay/getaway during Bates graduation!
House was comfortable, well-equipped and in a beautiful setting. It’s 25min from Bates college, making it easy to get to grad events. Wish we could start every day with coffee on the huge wraparound porch - sun streaming through trees, birds chirping. Owners were welcoming and communication was excellent. Would definitely return if in the area.
