About Ruth Francis
We, Sam and Ruth Francis, are the owners and hosts of eight rental properties in Georgetown, Maine. We have four wonderful grown sons and are proud grandparents. We worked for years to finish our timber frame dream home at the tip of the peninsula. We now enjoy our role as pastors to a growing church in Bath, Maine.
Ruth Francis purchased this Cabin in 2000
Why Ruth Francis chose Georgetown
We purchased this unique fifty acre property with its half mile long peninsula over thirty years ago. Since then we have lived here and operated a traditional wooden boat shop. Over the years we have built six charming cottages, as well as, converted a Sailor's Loft to a rental with breathtaking, panoramic views. We also, offer the home that we first built and lived in to renters, with it's ideal location at the tip of the peninsula with deep water frontage and a private dock. We have added other touches to our property with a garden house, ten slip boat dock, a hiking trail and clearings for fishing and picnics.
What makes this Cabin unique
The cottages are situated to allow privacy but also to maintain the quality of the open, natural spaces. Each cottage overlooks the marsh and adjacent Back River which flows off the mighty Kennebec and Nature Conservancy land beyond.

Peaceful, relaxing & hot.
The cottage was exactly as described and was a quiet and peaceful base for our family vacation. It comfortably slept 6 people and provided plenty of space for everyone to hang out. The screened porch is perfect for relaxing mornings and after busy days at the beach, hiking and exploring. Our stay was during a 90 degree heat wave and the upstairs bedrooms were extremely hot even with the fans that were provided. We knew there was no ac and took a chance anyway. Once, the temperature broke it was an ideal spot.
Great Escape
Extremely comfortable, managers extremely responsive. Porch is worth the price of admission! Loved our stay!

Rustic
The owners and property management were very responsive and great to deal with.
Conveniently located, well maintained property
We had a good one week stay here with our family, friends, and our dog. Everything worked well and as advertised. Our group size varied during the week. As many as 6 stayed comfortably, but it was also good for just 2 of us. We used the cottage as a base for our visit and that worked well. Drive times: 15 minutes to Reid State Park; 10 minutes to Bath; 20 minutes to Brunswick; allow an hour for Portland. Screened in porch was a big plus. Internet was reliable with speed typical for non-business service. If you are looking for a main coast vacation "base station" this is a good option. Owners were very friendly and helpful. No issues there. We recommend this property.
Great stay. Wonderful screened porch!! Comfortable cottage. Fantastic vacation!
Pretty hot and muggy weather for Maine but the screened porch and the fans provided by the owners made everything work!! Very comfortable cottage.
