A few important notes before booking:
Summer rentals (July/August/First half of September) are week-long from Saturday to Saturday.
- The bunk house is not a 4 season abode, meaning that once it starts freezing at night we have to close and winterize it (no water or electricity and antifreeze in the toilets). This means that after Columbus Day (the beginning of October) to Memorial Day (the beginning of June) it is not available for your use. This means that the home only sleeps 9 from Columbus Day to Memorial Day.
Memorial Day to Columbus Day:
Accommodates: 13
Bathrooms: 3.5
Bedrooms: 5
Bed: 9
Rest of the year:
Accommodates: 9
Bathrooms: 2.5
Bedrooms: 4
Bed: 6
- The dock extension and the watercraft are also only available from Labor Day to Columbus Day.
- As a historic 150-year-old home in a rural setting, guests should anticipate some “old home” issues as well as encounters with local fauna, including bugs, rodents, deer, and the enchanting calls of loons. Additionally, please be prepared for occasional power outages and keep in mind that the region experiences frequent rainfall, but these are all part of the unique charm of Northern Maine :)
-This is not a party house; considerate behavior is expected out of respect for nearby and full-time resident neighbors who value their peace and quiet.
