We had a lovely stay in the Main Cabin! Debbie was very helpful and communicated with us as we needed. The property is very homey and comfortable. Perfect stay for a wedding in Corinna. Just tucked away enough down a beautiful road past cows and scenic trees and farmlands. Water pressure in the shower was excellent and sitting on the front porch is really peaceful in the morning!

Relaxing Maine Getaway

Exeter is a lovely town and region of rural Maine for a getaway, and the Exeter Nature Cabins have everything you could need. Debbie and son are great communicators and friendly hosts who are always ready to help. My fiancé and I spent a lovely week at the cabin- with a special shoutout to Yeti the sweet dog next door :) Definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Debbie Bartlett

Host profile image
Betty & Richard Bartlett created this magical place 25 years ago when they retired. They put together 550 acres of unspoiled woods with a family home and 2 comfortable cabins. Exeter has always been a family gathering place and we have had numerous family holidays, get-to-gethers and two weddings here. The younger generation of our family spent their childhood exploring the woods and streams, watching wildlife, eating apples and blueberries from the trees, sledding, etc. Stewardship of this property has passed to the adult children and we feel a sincere desire to share this beautiful, 'good for the soul' place with others who will enjoy it. Debbie Bartlett is the current resident and manager of Exeter Nature Cabins and environs. She is shown in the picture with her brother, Chris.

Why they chose this property

Our family has enjoyed this property for years, we are now opening it up to the public to enjoy.
