An Exquisite Property AND friends for life!
It is difficult to put into words how much we enjoyed our stay at The Tortoise and The Mare property. This place was built for us. We were traveling with two of our kids, 12 & 13, and 2 friends of ours along with me and my husband. It is difficult to impress my tweens but they were! We loved our private rooms and the attention to detail. Laura has so lovingly decorated each room and the entire house. My children especially loved spending time with the tortoise and the mare! Anyone with teenage kids know how difficult it is to get them away from their phones. But Chewy and Hartley put a spell on them. Watching our kids just walk around the incredible grounds or spend time staring into Hartley's beautiful, big, brown eyes made me feel like I was doing something really 'right' for my kids. We can't wait to come back and stay in the Containerminium. Laura and Steve are the most gracious, loving and open hosts. We are already planning our next trip! Friends for Life!

Family gathering
We needed a place for a small family group to stay while in the area for our son's graduation from Hebron Academy. The Tortoise and the Mare was perfect for us. Beautifully decorated yet comfortable and homey, it was perfect for our needs. Everyone remarked at how nice their beds were for sleeping, a small but important detail. The large kitchen was great for our celebratory gathering. The vista of the hills from the closed porch and deck was a peaceful spot for coffee or a drink in the evening. Just a wonderful place to spend a few days with family. We highly recommend it.

Wonderful Place & People
Three generations of our family loved the Tortoise & Mare. It's a beautiful setting and was very comfortable. There was something for everyone. The kindness our hosts Laura & Steve showed us, put our stay over the top. They truly have the gift of hospitality.

Exceptional!!
After searching for the perfect place, we discovered The Tortoise and The Mare online and knew immediately that it was the place we would inevitably choose! The mountain views and large property delivered the natural, country setting we were looking for and the Inn itself made us feel right at home ~ we were in heaven! The decor is intriguing and the rooms are uniquely themed. Beyond the splendid setting though, which I can't emphasize enough, are a couple of exceptional character, who are a pleasure to meet and work with. Laura and Steve are down to earth, fun, caring, unique individuals who do a great job helping in any way they can to assure their guests are more than satisfied. We recommend The Tortoise and The Mare to anyone and everyone with no hesitation - WE LOVE IT !

I paid for a house with no electricity. Would you?
Here was my experience, I had intended on leaving no review at all but the owner leaves me no choice. You’ll see why. We rented this property for two nights (the required minimum stay) to do some snowmobiling in the area. Due to a warm up the day before arrival a lot of the snow here melted, but that’s no big deal, we can just trailer up north for the day and come back to the farmhouse. However, within 5 minutes of our arrival at 1pm, the electricity went out (and most importantly the HEAT, it was 15 degrees and dropping into the negatives). The owners called the power company who gave a repair time of 3:15pm. The outage was widespread throughout the area. So we waited over 2 hours, and then by 4pm had to make a decision: If you were in a farmhouse in rural Maine, with no electricity/heat/light, and there was no certain time this would change, what would you do? We did what any halfway reasonable person would do-we left. I called the owner and advised that given the situation we would need to find other accommodations as this one was not legally inhabitable under Maine state law. As it turned out we could not find any nearby accommodations due to the power outage so we made the 3 hour drive home. The next day, I contacted the owner and requested a refund for the booking as the home was uninhabitable on arrival. The homeowner would only credit one third of the total, forcing me to pay (a censored amount of money because Home Away won't let me tell you) for a house that I couldn’t stay in (including a cleaning fee!!) The owner stated that it was because we “chose” to leave, and the power came back on later “that evening” Here’s the bottom line, most reasonable adults would shake hands and agree it’s too bad an unforeseeable circumstance like a power outage happened, here’s your money back, we’ll try again next time. But these greedy people are not reasonable. So if you choose to get involved with them, good luck, you’re on your own. You’ve been warned.

Farmhouse is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The views from every window are gorgeous.
My husband and I rented the Farmhouse for New Year's weekend to go snowboarding and snow mobiling with our 2 boys; 15 and 12 years old. Steve and Laura are probably two of the kindest and most accommodating hosts and people we have met. The Tortoise and the Mare farmhouse is so beautiful inside. They keep it so clean and decorate it so nice in every room. Each bedroom has a theme which was really cool. Loved the wood burning stove in kitchen and the beautiful back room, which we used the most for hanging out, that had panoramic views of mountain sides. From mints on the pillows, champagne and glasses set for us to toast the new year and there in a second when we needed a tow out of a gully we slid into....Steve and Laura are people you want to know and meet. You will feel comfortable the moment you step into their Farmhouse and will enjoy every minute of your stay. We even got to bring our Golden Retriever, Bella, which for us was a huge relief that she could enjoy our get away too!! Fantastic time and fantastic place to stay!!!

A winter wonderland in Maine, and it's all to yourselves!
We rented the Tortoise and the Mare Inn for our Christmas vacation and could not have asked for a better experience. The property was absolutely gorgeous and Steve and Laura were the most gracious hosts. Setting: The Inn is located on 140 acres of property and it feels all to yourselves. Throughout the property there are picturesque views and plenty to do outside. We had over 12" of snow while we were there, which was perfect for playing in the snow and great for snowshoeing through some of the trails around the property. The Inn: We had 8-10 people throughout our stay and there was plenty of room for all. The kitchen is one of the largest rooms in the house and we spent lots of time in there gathered around the table and having a great time. There is an old wood burning stove that kept the kitchen plenty warm and was fun to keep the fire going in. Hospitality: You won't find better hosts than Steve and Laura. When we first arrived there were chocolates on every bed, the Inn was beautifully decorated for Christmas, the kitchen had a basket full of cookies and other goodies, and they left out treats and bowls for our two dogs. Throughout our stay, we got to know Steve and Laura, which was a real delight. If we needed anything at all, they were willing and ready to help. Steve even made these beautiful ice vessels with candles that he lit at night around the property. We absolutely recommend the Tortoise and the Mare Inn and are very grateful to Steve and Laura for making our stay perfect.

absolutely amazing
I can't stress enough what a beautiful home this was. The kitchen was amazing and perfect size for 8 people to hang around the island. Honestly, if I could design a "dream kitchen" it would look a lot like this one. Every room is furnished with beautiful handmade wooden furniture and every touch seems thoughtful. The bedrooms were clean and spacious, all with a different theme. My favorite was the edgar allen poe room, just a little creepy and cute!! I loved all the knick knacks and books. Our one complaint was that we couldn't find any extra toilet paper, luckily I had packed a roll!! The back porch, where we spent most of the weekend, gave us incredible views. The mountain in the distance was just breathtaking. Drinking my morning coffee on the porch was just so peaceful and beautiful. The property itself was spacious and secluded, with a trail into the woods and a few large rolling fields. We loved seeing the beautiful mare just trotting around in her enclosure. Lastly, Laura and Steve were wonderful people. You can immediately tell the love and care they put into their inn. I cannot stress enough what a lovely couple they are. They immediately made us feel welcome and right at home. They were flexible about checking in and out which was very nice. I will be renting from them again, because my experience was so magical. I highly suggest the tortoise and the mare to anyone visiting maine.
