Absolutely beautiful with lots of extras!

My family of four loved this beautiful home! There was enough room that several more could have easily stayed, and it would have still felt roomy. The owners had done so many extras like preparing a house book explaining a lot of the perks, a book of maps to local recommended areas, and having a supply of bird food on hand. The pictures looked good, but even they didn't do it justice. The wooded setting could not have been any more gorgeous. The large windows offered beautiful views of trees and gardens all around the house. It was private and secluded, but still close to many hot spots. The kitchen was large and fully stocked, with plenty of room for cooking together. I seldom had to turn on the lights in the kitchen because of the skylights and large windows...again, with beautiful views! The beds and furniture were very comfortable, and everything was immaculate. Some of the activities we'd recommend are the Whale Watch at Boothbay Harbour, the walk-on adventrues at L.L. Bean (We were first-time kayakers) and shopping in nearby Freeport, a ferry-ride from Casco Bay to Peaks Island with bicycling and rock/shore exploring. We also think you should make the 2.5 hour drive north to Arcadia and exploring the island for a full day. Our favorite eating was at Montsweag Roadhouse, just down the road. The Maine coastline was truly awesome, and eating breakfast at the house each day, and then coming home to such a gorgeous setting at night made it an exceptional experience and one we'd recommend to all!
