Charming place to stay

We enjoyed our stay at the Daniel Sergeant House. It retained much of the charm of it's1847 construction but still had conveniences of today, like A/C, great WI-FI and abundant electrical outlets. The fully stocked kitchen is a real plus. Perhaps we will actually cook on our next stay. We will be back!

Enough bedrooms to separate the kids, keeping fighting to a minimum. Great place to relax. It was perfect for us because we ventured out in so many different direction (Acadia,Millinoket, then over to New Hampshire. Particularly impressed the new owners (since we booked the reservation) honored the agreement. A few tweaks to the logistics needed to be made, but they were made flawlessly.

Brewer with River Views

We were late in arriving and Google did not give great directions so we spent some time trying to find the property. We reached out to Kristin who responded quickly and were able to get to the property. Getting in was easy and it was a large space. We did not spend much time there as it was a base for going into Acadia. It is a convenient and safe location and made for a good base of operations. We appreciated there was extra ice available so we could pack or cooler for the day without having to stop and buy ice. Checkout was quick and easy. While it was far (about an hour) from Acadia, we knew this before booking and the price more than made up for it. The drive to the park was nice also so a great deal all around.

About the host

Hosted by Josh and Heather

Both Josh and Heather grew up in small central Maine towns. We both attended the University of Maine in Orono and set our roots in the nearby town of Hermon. We have two children, Aiden and Charlotte who are the center point of our lives! We enjoy everything this beautiful state has to offer but have grown partial to the peace and tranquility of the North Maine Woods. We love to spend summers by the water and winters on the frozen lakes and ponds! It has been a dream of ours to be able to provide a great vacation destination for others to enjoy what we've been so fortunate to take advantage of our entire lives!

Why they chose this property

The city of Brewer is a perfect location to easily access many of Maine's great attractions. Within minutes of the airport, and interstate 95, coming and going is a breeze! This neighborhood offers quiet streets for a sunrise or sunset walk and is a short drive to some of the best dining options in the area!

What makes this property unique

The Sargent House stands at the southwest corner of South Main Street (Maine State Route 15) and Town Landing Road in far southwestern Brewer. It is a large 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a main roof line running east–west and cruciform gables (two south, one north) projecting from each side. The gable ends are all decorated with a distinctive vine-like vergeboard. A square tower rises at the northeast corner of the eastern and northern gables, capped by a steeply-pitched pyramidal roof with a finial at the top. A lower octagonal turret stands at the southeast corner. A single-story porch, now enclosed, stands between the southern gables. The house was built in 1847 by Daniel Sargent, owner of a shipyard and lumber mill. Sargent was one of the area's preeminent "lumber barons", whose business dominated the Brewer-Bangor area. The house is a high quality and relatively little-altered example of the Gothic Revival, of which only three examples are known in the county. The alterations include the removal of a porch front the front (which was similar in style to that on the south side), and the addition of the square tower, probably in the 1880s or 1890s.
