About the host

Hosted by Chris Nielsen

Host profile image
Originally from Upstate New York where I learned to fly fish, I moved to Maine where I found home and my wife. Took up ruffed grouse (i.e. partridge) hunting, when I adopted my hunting dogs. We fell in love with the house we are putting on VRBO, and we want to share our love of the Maine outdoors with our guests. This is our first time hosting, and we hope that we will get some good feedback, as well as some feedback to make the place more appealing. Best of luck fishing across the street at Wyman Lake, or your favorite Maine outdoor fun.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location because of its central location - you can get to the Kennebec Valley or up to The Forks or Jackman in a short time. So much to choose from. Considering I used to drive from Southern Maine for a day trip in The Forks, this is a lot easier!

What makes this property unique

We love the privacy that the property affords being surrounded by trees, and we especially love the sun room where we can kick back and relax while enjoying the scenery. In the cooler months, that wood stove kicks out a great amount of heat that keeps the whole place cozy. Get away from it all and be close by to the outdoors.
