Photos and Description of the Sullivan vacation house rental

David and Joanna Buell invite you to experience deep peace, freedom, Mother Nature and fun! The Quarry House at Light Heart Retreat overlooks a crystal-clear granite quarry and is backed by old growth forest with walking trails. Canoe on the main quarry; walk to the secluded Bragdon Quarry where Bald Eagles roost--a great place for skinny dipping. On the west overlook is a sacred circle of standing stones, a favored place to watch the sun set over Taunton Bay. A wood-fired sauna offers a place to sauna and swim in the moonlight. The LHR library offers holistic resources, general entertainment, desk, phone line. The Quarry House is well suited for a family retreat, offering lots of room to spread out in the large great room and piano room. The lawn and gardens slope gradually into the water at the 'point', a safe place for little children to swim. The Quarry House also accommodates small workshops, couples on retreat, family reunions, and small weddings. Close to Bar Harbor & Acadia

Notes: Notes: Fall 2008 Special. 20% off the daily rate when you book more than 3 nights.
  • $125-$200/night
  • Payment is by check or money order. 50% down to make the reservation, the balance due 30 days prior to arrival. Signed rental agreement required. Damage deposit of $300, by separate check will be held for one week after departure and returned in full, if no damages.
  • Our high season week begins on Monday with check in at 5 PM. Departure the following Sunday with check out at 5 PM. Please schedule your stay accordingly! This gives our guests time to pack and to arrive on a day with much less traffic. It allows ourselves and guests to participate in the wonderful local summer and fall festivals that take place over the weekends in our area. It makes for an unhurried departure. It's a much more sane alternative to the usual Saturday turnover that cuts into 2 weekends and puts you on the road during peak travel times. We cannot accommodate week long stays with arrival and departures different than our set-up. A 5 day stay must fall between Monday and Sunday, also. Thank you!

Notes: Need a hair dryer, iron, cooler, beach chair, etc.? Please feel free to ask. We are very accommodating! We can put a bed in the piano room for an elderly guest if stairs are a problem. The full bath is on the first floor. Our guests comment, 'You've thought of everything!'. We do our best to keep our cottages well supplied. Our cottages receive 'spring cleaning', not just a quick change over. You arrive to your beds all made up and to a generous supply of towels. We've stayed at cottages listed on-line and have yet to find accommodations as thoughtful, peaceful, beautiful, wonderful as we have here! This is not a cabin, but a lovingly appointed home in a rare, unique setting. We know you'll love it!

Further details for this vacation house rental in Sullivan, Maine

Smoking & Pets.: Smoking allowed outdoors. No pets, no exceptions other than a service dog by permission. See our website for details on our policies or call.

Not your usual Maine Cottage Rental!: Guests voice that they've never been anywhere, as beautiful, peaceful, with as wonderful an 'energy' as they experience as guests at Light Heart Retreat. Our cottages are finished, complete homes-not our personal summer home. We are present on the retreat, available to assist you. We keep the wood supplied for saunas and your own personal campfire pit. If you don't need us, we're all but invisible, except as caretakers of the gardens. We are sticklers about providing a clean space and strip beds down to the mattresses each time. We use natural cleaning products. Our soaps, candles and aromatherapy products come from Sweet Grass Farms. We keep our spaces as allergen free as possible--no glade plug ins and NO MICROWAVES-very bad for your food! Many guests have found inspiration in our holistic library. Joanna is available by appointment for holistic healing sessions. Self Health talks and Reiki trainings are held on Wednesday nights during July & Aug.
