Om overnatningsstedet

Jaw-Droping Mountain & Ocean View Post & Beam Log Getaway Camden Hills & Bay

Hvis du leder efter absolut fantastisk udsigt og en unik omgivelse, der nydes i fuldstændig privatliv, fem til otte minutters kørsel fra to maleriske havnebyer, er denne ferie getaway noget for dig. Dette hus ligger højt på en bjergside og er af Log / Post og Beam-konstruktion med åben grundplan, stor indhyllet veranda, lofts, katedralloftet og med vinduer og ovenlys på alle sider for at slippe ind i den virkelig storslåede, befalende udsigt. Huset sover op til otte personer i to åbne hems soveværelser og en hyggelig, visuelt privat gæsteværelse / bibliotek på to queensize senge, en dronning sovesofa og en fuld størrelse futon udtrækssofa, alt sammen meget behageligt. Der er et boblebad og et stand-up brusebad, plus et halvt bad med forsænket skibssænke. Et landskøkken med en klassisk støbejern / emaljeret komfur, gasområde og skiferplader med udsigt over silvan fra vasken. Elegant indretning overalt. Dette hus er intimt og romantisk, mens naturen på alle sider bringer ydersiden ind.


Vores udsigt og vores unikke omgivelser :: Skove under dig og blåbærfelter ovenfor, du kigger ned over de frodige trætoppe eller vælger dine egne blåbær i sæsonen over huset. Alle naboer er acres væk og næsten helt usynlige. Du bliver nødt til at knække din hals for at se taget af en af dem bag dig fra den brede veranda, og så vil du kun se en del af et tag. Du kan se skaldede ørne og høge svæve under dig! Fred og ro og privatliv her vil forbløffe dig, og der er næsten ingen trafik i nærheden af os, da vi er beliggende ved vendepunktet på en lille asfalteret vej højt på skråningen, og ved enden af en lang, stejl privat kørsel. En diskret brugt, kun lejlighedsvis besat anden bygning på ejendommen er gemt væk fra syne, du vil ikke engang vide, at den er der. På de omkringliggende bjerge til havet, på alle sider ser du intet andet end skove og enge prikket af et par fine huse i det fjerne med deres muntre lys om natten. Du ser snesevis af øerne på havet med Cadillac Mountain i det fjerne på Mt. Desert Island i Acadia National Park 43 miles væk, halvdelen af det, når kragen flyver.

Hav, himmel, bjerge, området :: Solopgangen - hvis du er klar til det - gnister på vandet og solnedgange vil gøre det til dybrosa, og de omkringliggende kystbjerge steg eller guld. Området giver uendelig mulighed for naturelskeren, sejleren, historikeren, art aficionado, fuglevandet eller stargazer. For dem, der længes efter vandet, er der dagssejl, bareboat charter (bedre være en erfaren skipper), fyrture, hummerfiskeri og øko-ture, hummerbager på øer, færger, hvalsafari, kajak og rafting ture, og tre til seks dages nautiske eventyr på de klassiske høje skibe og træskønere kendt lokalt og historisk som Windjammers. Der er vandrestier, der starter lige uden for din dør, over hele Camden Hills State Park og videre, såvel som på betagende smukke stier, der kun er kendt for de lokale, som vi vil dele med dig, når du kommer. Hvis du er en fuglelsker, vil du have et overvældende kor af fuglesang lige op ved huset. Nattehimmelen er fantastisk.

Spisning, kunst, livsstil: Der er køkken i verdensklasse og alle slags spiseforstyrrelser, fra havnefronten til fransk, der skal findes i området, samt Farnsworth Art Museum, hjemsted for Wyeth-samlingen, og historiske gamle havne og maleriske, travle vandfronter overalt, fyldt med fiskerfartøjer, luksusyachter fra hele verden og klassiske træsejlbåde. Huset er udstyret med trådløs adgang og kabel. Udendørs udstyr inkluderer Adirondack stole og grill; velopdragne kæledyr tilladt efter godkendelse. Børn er altid velkomne, selvom huset ikke specifikt er "børnesikkert"; også skal man være forsigtig med spiraltrappen såvel som antikviteter, kunst og kulturelle genstande, da mange er skrøbelige. Vær også opmærksom på kurvemøbler tak.

Gratis wifi
Klimaanlæg (stort vindue enhed. Kun nødvendigt lejlighedsvis i Maine, men de senere år ændrede især sommeren 2018 ting; normalt (og berømt!) sommertemperaturerne er midt i de øverste 70'erne til de lave 80'erne .... og relativt tør luft. Der var nogle varme, krusede dage i år ... så denne indstilling vil være tilgængelig for vores sommer- og begyndende efterårsgæster!)

We had a wonderful stay. The view from the deck is amazing . We enjoyed morning coffee looking at the sunrise , lobster dinners at night. Melody’s kitchen is well stocked with lobster pots, and all that is needed.Waiting for us when we arrived were delicious jams, orange juice, coffee, locally made bread, eggs- so all that was needed for breakfast.My husband and I traveled with our adult kids, and 2 grandchildren.Before booking , melody did caution us about the open floor plan and spiral staircase for the 3 year old . 2 safety gates were provided and this was perfect for ensuring safety. Beautiful gardens around the home and cozy space in the living room for playing cards/games.Great location to get to Camden and Rockland easily .We stayed over July 4th- had a wonderful time!!

Svar fra VrboOwner den 29. okt. 2021
Mary I am terribly sorry that the “non privacy” was a hardship. I try to make it abundantly clear in my listing description and I remind every single guest that the house has a completely open floor plan. It is a ski lodge style post and beam with open loft bedrooms. It has zero auditory privacy anywhere except in the downstairs powder room. There is visual privacy for the sleeping arrangements but no auditory privacy. You were a wonderful guest and we would be delighted to have you back but we understand that the openness did not work for you. I welcome the fact that this review will remind people to consider the clear description of our unique setting and appointments in the listing, though in this case it cost me a star. I send explicit notes as reminders on this topic at or even after booking. I want this to be a good fit for everyone. Please read the descriptions carefully before booking, or note my candid reminders. There is no auditory privacy! It is the trade off for a unique space.

The views are amazing and we loved watching the birds from the expansive deck. Upon check in, there were fresh flowers and groceries for us (what a nice surprise)!

Quiet Hillside Cabin

Very well done, quiet and private. Close to nearby touristy things on the coast and Hwy 1. Open floor plan allows for some visual privacy, but no sound breaks in the sleeping areas. Worked well for our family but could be tricky in other situations. Overall, we enjoyed it and would recommend it to others.

Thank you Peter. I have tried to highlight the layout of the house in all of the descriptions, I have even resorted to reminding each and every person of that when they book. It is a ski lodge style post and beam log house, with two loft bedrooms, and a dual purpose “library” third bedroom that can be converted to a bedroom. There is visual privacy for all sleeping arrangements but no auditory privacy to speak of. So it’s a unique property, and we want to be sure it is a good fit for you and for your group before you book. Ask me questions, examine photos and descriptions (I will send more).

Gorgeous Location- Beautiful Maine Cabin

On our arrival, we were welcomed with fresh fruit, cookies, coffee, tea and fresh flowers. The cabin is a perfect Maine cabin, smelling of pine and fresh air. It was very comfortable and cozy and the views and setting are extraordinary. The only thing we found to be difficult was the bathrooms- there is not a lot of bathroom privacy due to layout and doors. Otherwise the cabin is perfect!

Thank you for your kind words, it was wonderful to have you, you were appreciative and responsive guests. My apologies for any surprises that you might have experienced due to the completely open floor plan, I’ve tried to emphasize it elsewhere and during the booking progress i may not have done so with you. We did put a description of the completely open floor plan into the section called “the space”. Normally we’ve had conversations with our guests before or immediately after booking to specifically alert them to the nature of the space, especially the “no auditory privacy” aspect, in order to double check that they had not missed it in the written description of the house. Do you think that this stronger version would fix that? Here's how it is presented so far “The house has a completely open floor plan, it is ski lodge style with loft bedrooms with a bathroom between the two loft bedrooms that is partially open to the shared cathedral ceiling. There is visual privacy or potential visual privacy for the sleeping arrangements and in the bathrooms but no auditory privacy to speak of except in the downstairs powder room which is enclosed but also has two doors (one which can make it potentially en-suite to the “third bedroom” off the great room which can be converted from a little library by drawing heavy Pendleton (trade blanket Indian robe) panels. Please keep this in mind for larger groups. If it’s a good fit for your group, and if after hearing my “open floor plan speech” you still find it so, the larger groups that come here (from couples up to eight) do have a wonderful time!” The upstairs bathroom has two glass doors with two heavy Pendleton panels each. They easily cover the doors but you do have to draw them. The effect is that if you don’t need privacy on one side, beautiful light comes in. When they are closed it is also aesthetic. So we decided not to change the doors. We thought about enclosing the top which is open, cathedral ceiling style, directly above the soaking/whirlpool tub, in order to create more auditory privacy, but decided against it as a trade off: again light plays in the room, and also, there is never any steam because of the excellent air circulation it provides. Please keep all this in mind when booking but if it’s seen as an adventure and an aesthetic experience you will not regret it. Again my apologies if it’s less conventional features took guests by surprise but we decided that it’s integral to the charm of the house

Peaceful Retreat

Enjoyed a peaceful, relaxing week celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary. The cabin was perfect for that. Melody was responsive to any questions or items needing attention. Great location for exploring the surrounding area. We were greeted with beautiful floral arrangements & lots of goodies/treats. Nice linens. I would pay attention to her notes about privacy - it may be a bit awkward for more than one couple, unless you’re VERY comfortable with one another.

Thank you Steve you were wonderful guests. Please set your heart at rest that I’ve made it a habit to ride around on the “very open floor plan” even with guests that have already booked. I make sure that no one comes here without a crystal clear idea of what to expect and I make sure they understand. I used to remind guests only when the party was greater than a couple but these days I remind even a single person! Perhaps i failed to go through that with you? The couples (and one single) guests were very happy here but began to worry about larger groups and would mention that fact in reviews. Please rest assured that everyone gets my “very open floor plan speech” and gets reminded that it is ski lodge style log post and beam with loft bedrooms with visual privacy or potential visual privacy for the sleeping arrangements; but no auditory privacy except in the downstairs powder room. Guests who get past that, even large groups up to eight (we’ve had many over 14 years!!) are self selecting and they end up having a blast. It creates closeness in a unique environment for the right group. I tell people only you can know your group! We ourselves have had family and friends of all ages here on winter weekends all together. Yes, please be aware of the openness; but it can also be a very very special time here which we ourselves have experienced as have at this point hundreds of guests. We are always full in the summer months and shoulder seasons (we do not rent in winter) with groups of every size from 1-8. My apologies for the incident with the new air conditioner we are installing a much more powerful circuit breaker this week. I’m sorry that you had any trouble like that during your stay and had to go hunting for the box while trying to enjoy your anniversary. You took fabulous care of the place even the birds will miss you. Thank you Steven please come again.

Nice getaway

Make sure you read the host’s review about house. It was our fault that we didn’t realize that there was no air conditioning and the set up of the rooms was weird that when we got in the bedroom, had to walk through the bathroom and the other bedroom to get downstairs. Other than that it was a nice stay.

Thank you Donna for directing our potential guests back to the extensive descriptions on the platform that we provided to make sure that it is a good fit. My apologies that we did not direct you to that information. We normally remind guests that it is a very open floor plan when they book, with no auditory privacy except in the downstairs powder room. It is a ski lodge style post and beam log house with lifts open to the great room with a bathroom between the two lofts, which is ventilated through a cathedral ceiling that is open at the top to let in light and air. Once you are aware of that and only you know your party, if that works for you, the people who come here tend to have a blast…but one must consider all of that. My apologies for the air conditioning problems you may have had. There is an air conditioner in the door stairs area. It is located in the “library” off the living room which can be converted to a third bedroom. Our second unit was struck by lighting in a storm that our last guests endured. Unfortunately this time of year with supply chain issues it cannot be replaced right away. Also when the weather is cool it is better to be able to open the windows next to the bed and have room to move around it…but yes there is at least one working air conditioning unit in the house. It is a very large one on wheels that vents out the window. Sorry you were not able to find it or make it work. We were unaware that that was the case; we would have sent someone to help. You were wonderful guests and thank you for your understanding and the favorable rating despite these inconveniences. We appreciate your candor and your kindness. You left the place in meticulously beautiful shape; thanks for everything. We hope to see you again

Great house- literally a hidden gem! Melody was incredibly helpful, and made great suggestions for things to do and places to eat. But the most memorable aspect of our stay was the thoughtful little touches upon our arrival. After traveling all day, and little energy to go shopping at 6:00pm, it was amazing to find a dozen eggs, butter, and half & half waiting for us in the refrigerator! Then we found they had left a loaf of sourdough bread, cookies, coffee, tea, honey, and fresh apples on the counter. That’s true hospitality! To top it off, we got to watch the Camden Fourth of July fireworks from the deck. We will always remember this stay. Thank you Melody and Mike!

Great Views

Melody is very fast and responsive. The house has great views and is very clean. Little welcome goodies are left to enjoy. Traveling with 2 large dogs there was nowhere for a dog to be able to play or use the restroom. There are small patches of grass alongside the hillside driveway. If taking a large vehicle as in and SUV or truck there is no room to turn around the driveway at the top. Otherwise, it was a pleasant peaceful stay with a warm cozy fire on chilly evenings!

Thank you for your kind words I am sorry you had trouble with your dogs and cars though. We are on our seventh German Shepherd they average 90 pounds and our Honda Pilot SUV and Ford F-250 Superduty Diesel truck are able to park side by side and turn around up there. If we have a third vehicle it does have to back down. But there are several parking spaces in addition on the lower part of the drive if you have extra guests or a larger group. For dogs, there are endless acres to run right outside the door if they are under voice command…it’s the entire Camden Hills and we own the land above the house…and below it….there’s also an easement across the blueberry fields and a network of peaceful roads and mountain trails. I’m sorry you did not reach out to us….we allow dogs because we have big dogs and did not have the heart to turn them away as they travel with us often….we do advertise that it is a very steep drive….Fair Winds safe travels…

Hilltop Hideaway

Somehow, this place is both a cabin in the woods and a mountaintop aerie. We all had a great stay for a long weekend getaway to the area. The location was very convenient to Camden/Rockport/Rockland with all that area had to offer: great shopping, restaurants, and hikes. We were there with three dogs and were able to walk them on the property on the driveway and surrounding grass area. The hosts were wonderful.They responded quickly to questions and concerns and went above and beyond supplying us with anything and everything we’d need. They even supplied us with several options for breakfasts, which we all enjoyed thoroughly. The one difficulty was the upstairs bedroom layout, with the bathroom blocking access to the inner bedroom. We sorted that out easily enough though, and everyone was more than comfortable.

Wonderful stay in an eclectic house with lovely views

This is such a lovely property! The house is open plan, so there's not a lot of privacy, but we're a close family, so it didn't matter. The space is comfortable, the kitchen is extremely well-stocked, and the hosts were so kind to provide some staples like milk and creamer, as well as tea and cookies. And the flowers on the table were beautiful. The location was perfect for us - close to hiking trails and beaches, and not too far from Portland and Acadia National Park (1.5 to 2 hours each). The house is tucked away up in the mountain with lovely views, including of the stars on a clear night. You can sit out on the balcony enjoying the view and local birds visiting the feeder, or if it's chilly, the wood-burning stove warms the living room perfectly. It was such a treat to be able to stay there. Thank you, Melody and Michael!

Weekend Home Away from Home

We were in the area for a family wedding and felt as though we were staying at the home of old friends. Melody and Michael are thoughtful and welcoming hosts. All communication prior to and during our stay was helpful and timely. We were delighted by the beautiful bouquet of flowers and selection of fresh fruits, local bread, coffee & tea that welcomed us upon our arrival. Such a kind-hearted detail! The house is cozy and feels like a home away from home with everything you could possibly need made available. The porch is a wonderful extension of the living space and we enjoyed starting the day with the birds while watching the sun rise. The view is simply spectacular- so high up we were looking down on the tree tops! We were even lucky to catch a few trees turning from green to red over the course of the weekend. We were also so pleased that the four legged members of our family were welcomed as well! Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

Mountain Views, peaceful respite

Lovely. While some rentals feel sterile, this truly feels like a home. Great communication from Melody throughout, from scheduling the rental, to encouraging us to call her or her house manager at any hour (there was no need). Welcomed by the rock garden, 3 gorgeous flower arrangements, and a kitchen stocked with eggs, bread, butter, juice, coffee, jams, honey, fruit- all you need for breakfast your first morning and more. Well stocked kitchen with cookware and basic supplies needed for preparing and storing meals. Comfy furniture, good reading lights and lovely mountaintop views from the sofa and the deck (bring your sunscreen). After a day of hiking, what a treat to come back to that deep, long jacuzzi tub. I personally loved close up views of birds at the feeder, and an ample supply of seed for refilling them. We were seeking a week of respite and relaxation and got exactly what we needed. Thanks Melody and Michael - sorry we didn’t get to meet you and hope to in the future.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

This was our dream house. We knew the man who built it, a friend of ours, Cpt. Rick Miles, former Master of the Pilot Schooner Timberwind out of Rockport Harbor at the time, now Master of the Wanderbird, who built it with his own hands. Its Post & Beam log components are from a kit shipped from Canada, but many of the features are hand-finished by Rick and his wife Karen, some by us. It is minutes from all the activities of the mid coast, but set apart, with a sense of remoteness and freedom from the bustle of the world, sweeping views and with an immense sense of privacy, completely surrounded by nature. The setting is unique, on a steep hill with a very dramatic drop, Mountains & Sea

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

We love renting our house in part because it has become a resounding success as a business, in part because it is a personal pleasure to us to share it with others. The place is that unique! Having the opportunity to give others the experience of it is very satisfying. The house has a tendency to select its own guests, people for whom it is a perfect fit. It has elements of a Swiss Chalet and a Maine cottage, an Adirondack camp or a Maine summer retreat that might appeal to one of the old families that summer here. It in fact has some appointments that belonged to such a family, my own, At the same time it is decidedly rustic in all the right ways, with a unique air of authenticity and charm, something very hard to find. If you add to all of that the breathtaking way the outside breaks into the house, the way the views pervade every room, the light of dawn or dusk transform the place in new ways each day and each hour, then you have a place unlike any other, a sort of gem that in this day and age is increasingly difficult to find.
