Make a left onto Sunday River Rd. from Route 2 at the Brew Pub, follow Sunday River Rd. to the first fork in the road -- bear right towards the covered bridge, continue along Sunday River rd to the second fork in the road -- bear right again, pass the covered bridge on your left and then make your first right onto Douglass Rd., then make your second left onto Keystone Drive, your first left onto Steamboat Drive, and then your first left onto Powder Ridge Rd.
