The Way Life Should Be is with Rebecca & Richard!
Review Submitted: October 2, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
2009 was our second year in Rebecca & Ricard's charming carriage apartment. Once again, we were welcomed with fresh-caught lobster, courtesy of lobsterman Richard, and hosted by YooHoo and Shy Girl, their sweet dogs.
The apartment was just the perfect size with all the amenities we needed. Inspired by the wonderful food and produce of Maine, we cooked and baked lobster, blueberry scones, and more. It was also great to be able to have our dog with us, without whom vacation would not have been the same.
Over two wonderful and relaxing weeks, we explored Mid-coast Maine from this perfect location. It was easy to plan days at Pemaquid Beach and Lighthouse, Rockland, Bath, and Camden. Damariscotta, too, is a great town, with shops, including a great independent bookstore; restaurants; wine-tastings, a top-notch public library that screened classic movies; a robust farmers market; and outdoor activities.
We also had nice days at the homestead, swimming and kayaking in the river off of the dock, enjoying morning coffee on the patio, being mesmerized by beautiful sunsets over the river, and sipping wine in the evening as we stargazed.
On top of all this, it's a bargain!
We are already plotting a 3-week stay in 2010 during which we hope to enjoy fresh eggs from R&R's chicks and a lobstering excursion with Richard.
