About the host

Hosted by Deirdre

Host profile image
I purchased this from the long-time original owners, as my future summer retirement home, and I'm enjoying improving the property and sharing it with summer visitors to Midcoast Maine. I spend many weeks here in the off-season working on the houses and the grounds.

Why they chose this property

Privacy - on 12 acres, on a private road, no neighbors within sight of the two houses on this property.
Lakefront - Medomak Pond is the perfect size, big enough to kayak or fish for hours but too small for noisy power boats
Location - between Boothbay Harbor and Camden, within an easy drive of dozens of great attractions and the ocean.
