Om overnatningsstedet
Moderne Opdateret Classic, Historic Cape i Blue Hill, Maine! Tidligere gæst rabat!
Omhyggeligt og smagfuldt opdateret sene 1800-tals cape farmhouse gemt i en juletrægård i den kæmpestore hummerby Blue Hill, Maine. Original kunst, form / funktion og komfort. Alle de nødvendige forudsætninger for at starte din teknologi detox, plove gennem en stor bog eller skrive din egen debut roman? Dette er område, som "Charlotte's Web" blev formet efter. Generationer af kreative typer og uafhængige tænkere er startet her.
"Back to the Land" -bevægelsen blev født i Blue Hill. Selv i dag starter unge familier og pensionister og venner deres homesteading eventyr til din fordel! Smag lokal honning, ost, øl, vin, kød og jordens bounties på de mange landmænds markeder og vejkanter, hvoraf nogle stadig opererer på æreordningen.
New York Times Travel-sektionen har for nylig udgivet et stykke med titlen "Blue Hill, en litterær enklave, vokser i Downeast Maine."
Forbind igen med dem, du elsker ved ildstedet. Se den unge familie af kalkuner vade gennem unge frøplanter eller samle vild lupin ved vejene efter en frugtbar dag med vilde blåbærplukning. Har du nogensinde lavet en brændebroder? Jeg har en god opskrift på dig! Top det med lokale vanilje bønneris, og jeg garanterer at du vil sove som sten, der prikker kysten i Blue Hill Village.
Håndlavede chokolade på Black Dinah, naturskønne rides til Stonington for 44 North Coffee og chowder på molen, mens Lobsterman ebber og strømmer med deres bounties og slanger ned deres orange gummibukser, bare for at hovedet ud igen ...
Huset byder på rigelig parkering til en beskeden båd for at starte på Blue Hill dock. Wade ved lavvande på stranden / parken med udsigt over nærliggende øer. Der er en meget flot, ren legeplads der.
Rummet: Veludstyrede, komfortable og yderst unikke. Lyse farver, solrige værelser, ren og forfrisket gårdkage, der er på en gang malerisk og lækker. Tre separate sovepladser med to private værelser og hems. Et petite fladskærms-tv / dvd-afspiller til late night film og Flashback Atari showdowns! Spis frokost udenfor på picnicbordet, eller tag en aftencocktail via udendørs lanterne-lys. Brændeovn til at stege væv eller gøre smores, eller bare få varm på en kølig aften.
Gæst adgang: Kom og gå som du vil! Fuldstændig privatlivets fred, fri ledelse af stedet (men ingen adgang til kælder er tilladt), ingen naboer.
Gæsteinteraktion: Vi forbinder via email / tekst forud for dit ophold til vejledning, og jeg vil checke ind via telefon / tekst for at se, om du er bosat i! Jeg er tilgængelig så meget eller så lidt som ønsket via telefon! Har du brug for nogle ideer til middag? Ring eller skriv mig! Jeg har personale på plads til nødsituationer og er til rådighed på telefon til enhver tid. Mit huschef er i nærheden for at håndtere eventuelle potentielle problemer.
Kvarteroversigt: Naboer i denne uge omfatter en ung familie af vilde kalkuner, hjorte, kaniner og lejlighedsvis elg. Der er ingen boliger eller naboer inden for en kvart mile. Huset ligger tæt på en landevej, og det er nemt at se, hvornår man finder det.
Små æbler dækker træer, der omgiver vilen, være cider og æblefrø kommer oktober. Der er ingen internet, kabel eller telefon. Dette er tilsigtet. Hvis du søger at arbejde under dit ophold, skal du medbringe din egen wifi. Men hvis du søger at bremse, er dette et godt sted at gøre netop det. Vil du have en god latter? Glem Youtube. Spil en runde Balderdash!
Vi er tæt nok til Acadia til dagsture, og kun fire miles fra byen. Få en hummerrulle eller frisk fisk og chips på The Fishnet, tag et kursus på Woodenboat School i Brooklin (du kan bygge din egen Northeaster Dory med mesterbygger, George Krewson), tage færgen til nærliggende øer for at udforske eller indånde en Hele Hummer på Perrys Hummer Shack i Surry, Byen ved siden af. Glem ikke blåbærkage og hjemmelavet is!
Det er et magisk sted, suspenderet i tide med hjertelige, venlige folk og stor lokal mad og bryg. Bekymret for at være for fjernt? Blue Hill er en af de eneste byer i Downeast Maine med eget hospital.
Komme rundt: Ingen offentlig transport (medmindre du inkluderer færgesystemet). Masser af parkeringspladser ved hytten og i Blue Hill havnen. Tag dine kajakker, eller en lille vandfartøj. Blue Hill er et godt sted at gå! Der er gallerier, butikker, bøger, et museum og masser af kyster at udforske.
Andre ting at bemærke: Vaskeri på Blue Hill Village til rådighed. *** Huset er et af de ældste boliger i Blue Hill, og en af de oprindelige gårde tager så et par minutter at få bruserens temp til højre. Vær tålmodig!
*** Ejendommen er nu tilgængelig fra oktober-maj til langsigtede bookinger til en dybt nedsat pris. Kontakt mig for detaljer eller et tilbud. Sommerhuset er det perfekte (!) basecamp for rejsende fagfolk, især kreative typer, der ønsker et specielt sted at skabe eller dekomprimere! Jeg vil opfordre dig til at læse mine anmeldelser for at se, hvor godt det er blevet gennemgået og nydt af mine gæster! * Tidligere gæster bedes kontakte mig med dine interesserede rejsedatoer, og jeg vil sende dig et særtilbud! *** Alle billeder er copyright-beskyttet og må ikke gengives uden forudgående tilladelse

Exactly as described. The place was decorated just the way I love it - lots of colors and different kinds of things. Our stay was nice and it was good to detox for a few days. Close to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Jennifer was very friendly and caring as a host. She wanted us to call her to make sure we arrived okay which is sweet but unusual for most VRBO bookings I've had. The only negative was the stairs to the 2nd floor are pretty steep but other than that we had a GREAT TIME!

Blue Hill Cabin
A lovely and quiet stay at Jen's Blue Hill cabin - just a few minutes from the town center, and an hour to Bar Harbor and Acadia. We used this as a quieter, more remote stay than trying for somewhere right in Acadia. The property was clean, just as described, and very comfortable. Interesting history too! Jen was fabulous and very communicative. Recommended!

Cozy and Creative Cottage
Our family of five stayed here on our way up the Maine coast. The cottage was perfect for us - our kids (9,7,5) loved their upstairs bedrooms and nooks to hang out in, and we all enjoyed cooking and relaxing downstairs.
There’s plenty to do nearby if you’re up for some driving. We were out during the days and enjoyed coming back each evening for dinner. The cottage is colorful and charming.

Long weekend in Blue Hill
We had a great stay here for a long weekend visiting the area. The cottage was very clean and the decor was very nice. The paint, floors and art work all seem like they have been recently updated. The floors are a little uneven but that's to be expected in an older cottage. My son loved playing the board games 😁

A Charming Historic Cottage
Loved our stay in this charming historic cottage in Maine! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this place was a true gem. Nestled in a picturesque, tranquil setting, the cottage had all the character you’d expect from a historic home. It's vintage touches that made the atmosphere feel warm and inviting. We enjoyed exploring the nearby towns full of local shops and restaurants. It was the ideal place to unwind and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.The owner was incredibly thoughtful and welcoming, providing us with local recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The cottage was stocked with all the amenities we could ask for, and the attention to detail really made a difference.We can’t recommend this cottage enough to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway steeped in history and natural beauty. We’ll definitely be back!

We had to wait a day for someone to come and get the television out for us. The stove failed to get hot enough for us to boil water to cook lobster. The owner did purchase an electric skillet for our use. She tried to take care of us but we still struggled with the outdated equipment.

Jim-
Good afternoon. I was very sorry to read your review that resulted in a temporary hold on my account. I did my best to accommodate your requests and offered to refund your money prior to your trip when you were not feeling that the cottage would be a good fit for you and your guest due to lack of tech.
That said, I agree that the stay could have went smoother. There was a missing lid to a skillet, which was apparent at nearly 8pm at night, about the same time that you requested that I send someone over to take the small flat screen out of a room upstairs and set it up in a room downstairs, that you preferred. In nine years of hosting, I have never had a guest request this but was happy to oblige. But please understand that this is not considered an emergency, and my helper is not on 24/7 call for non emergencies. He would however be there the following morning, before noon, with a new skillet (with a lid) and to move the tv for you. Stating that the tv was not set up is simply not true. It was not in the place you preferred it, which is not the same thing at all.
When we talked over the phone, your guest cited being "up in years and not feeling comfortable" moving a small flat screen down the stairs. I'm glad that you did not attempt this if it seemed unsafe. The cottage was built in the late 1800's and the listing details/amenities state that the cottage is not good for folks with mobility issues and there are stairs. Please take this into consideration on future trips. Old cottages are quirky and not ADA compliant like a hotel. I do my best to accommodate guests but the cottage is simply not a good fit for every traveler.
The range was not boiling a large lobster pot of water in a reasonable amount of time. I understand and had another guest ask about this years ago, which is why I purchased and had for you a plug in two burner countertop heat source. You said that you didn't see it, yet my helper saw it in a cabinet the following morning. It was where it was supposed to be.
I appreciate the opportunity to host you but your review does not accurately state how long you waited for a response or the fact that you were asking for help after hours and that help arrived the next morning, as soon as possible. I treat my helpers like family and they have been with me since 2016. Please understand that they have families and moving a tv at 8pm is simply not an emergency.
I do want to thank you for taking the smoke detector battery out when it started tweeting. I had that replaced and apologize that the battery died during your stay. I will be more diligent in the future about replacing it routinely to keep this from being an issue with future guests. Please accept my apology for the inconvenience.
Thank you again for staying at my cottage and I wish you both many wonderful trips in the future, hopefully in Maine!

Cute cottage in a sweet historical Maine town.
We loved our stay at Crabapple cottage- the house itself is cozy, bright, and clean. We were very impressed with the whole house water being filtered- thanks!! We don't mind not having a dishwasher on vacation, however, we found the kitchen to be needing some upgrades with the stove-top and could have been improved with some fun family cooking items such as a cookie sheet or muffin tins for baking. Overall, we were happy with our stay. We really enjoyed visiting nearby Acadia National Park, despite the hour drive each way. Our host was most cordial and communicative! Thanks Jen for a lovely stay! We hope our feedback on the kitchen experience helps for future renters.

Great place to experience the beauty of Maine!
We had a really nice escape at the Crabapple Cottage! Jen was an excellent host and answered all our questions; more than usual I am sure due to travel in time of COVID. We dug mussels and picked wild blueberries and had our quota of fresh fish and lobster. Visited National and State parks and local wildlife sanctuaries and reservations both sea side and woods and hills. Saw the comet and a billion stars. And just relaxed in the cottage and also was able to get some work done. My son is now hooked on Atari and wants to move to Maine. Couldn't have asked for more!

Welcoming
What’s not to love about this cheerful little farmhouse cottage? We wanted the opportunity to visit Acadia National Park and the surrounding area, but we didn’t want to be in the thick of things during high season. This location turned out to be just right. Blue Hill is a quiet, friendly little town. Mountains, ocean, winding roads through forests, fresh food, fresh air, and a sky full of stars. Jen not only made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, but thoughtfully suggested activities and places to explore. She’s such a warm, pleasant host! The cottage and grounds were very clean and well-maintained. The second floor feels like a luxurious treehouse and was perfect for our two teen girls. Our one week stay wasn’t long enough for any of us! :)

Wendi- Many thanks for your thoughtful and lovely review! Your family is welcome back anytime. I offer previous guests special pricing so let me know when you are ready to return! Adacia is PERFECTION in October! Less crowds and the fall color is breathtaking! I enjoyed hosting you! Our two teen girls love the upstairs in the cottage. I'm glad your girls did too!
Jen :)

Away from the crazy crowds...
Crabapple Cottage is a nice spot away from the busyness of the downtown touristy areas. While it’s in a rural area, it is good to know that's on a busy road, and one with noisy traffic at all hours. The cottage is nice and private, with a good-sized living room, dining table, well-stocked kitchen, and full bathroom. Our family of four enjoyed having their own spaces in the upstairs loft and the downstairs bedroom. The cottage is nicely decorated, bright, cheery, and welcoming. As a family, we enjoyed playing the games left by Jen, and our kids enjoyed the TV and DVD player in the upstairs bedroom. However, for those who don’t do well on uneven floors or need air conditioning to remove the humidity, this is not the place for you. We stayed during one of the wettest weeks in July, and it was tough not to feel damp. A window unit air conditioner would have been fantastic just to take the humidity out so our towels would dry. Do realize this is an older home, so while it has charm, it also has challenges. The stairs up to the loft are very steep, and there is no way to close them off for very young children. Finally, for those who need supportive furniture or beds, please know everything here is very soft. Jen is an excellent host and offered many great suggestions for places to eat and things to do. Follow her suggestions! We had a great time picking wild blueberries, making Jen’s cobbler, and eating lobster. Overall, a nice place for a week away!

Katie- Thank you for your review! I'm sorry that it was storming and very wet out for most of your stay. That weather was very unusual for that region and in the seven years that I have owned the cottage, I have not had guests experience such humidity or amounts of rain. I am glad that your kids had fun and that you were able to make it home for the week you were in the region. Very glad you made the cobbler and I hope that the time away was time to reconnect and unplug. If you would like to come back, please message me and I will offer you a reduced rate given your experience last week was not ideal due to weather. I hope that your trip home was a safe one and wish you all a wonderful rest of the summer!

Our family loved staying at this cottage. Our kids loved their rooms and the cabin's layout. The inside feels much larger than the posted picture. The home was clean and had plenty to do, such as fire pits, board games, and a nice kitchen area for home cooking. The price was better than at local hotels per night, and we used this place to travel between Acadia National Park and a few other nearby areas. The host contacted us several times and even offered suggestions for places to eat in the area. We did not spend too much time here as we spent most of our time in the parks and activities in the area. The time we spent here was relaxed and delightful. It feels much better to spend time at a place like this than in the seclusion of a hotel room. This was our first Vrbo, and we cannot recommend staying here enough. All of us had a great time.

Korey- It was such a pleasure to host you all! A bonus that I got to be your first host and that you had a wonderful time! I appreciate the thoughtfully written review. Very kind.
Come back any time! I often have guests for long stays over the holidays. October is nice because Acadia isn't as busy.
Best to you all and thank you again!
Jen :)

Wir waren in diesem Sommer zum ersten Mal in Maine. Das Haus ist für die Gegend ein sehr typisches Haus. Das bedeutet aber u.a. das die Böden oft sehr schief sind und man sich beim Laufen wie auf einem Boot fühlt. Auch die Treppe ist recht steil und hat schmale Stufen. Für Menschen mit Schwierigen beim Laufen oder Kleinkindern könnte dies ein Problem darstellen. Außerdem liegt das Haus recht nah an einer (leider auch Nachts) recht befahrenen Straße. Man sollte also vorsorgen, sofern man einen leichten Schlaf hat.Zudem gibt es keinen WLAN Zugang, wie auf der Seite beschrieben. Auch der Empfang ist sehr schlecht. Ich musste zum Telefonieren immer das Haus verlassen und die Internetverbindung war sehr stockend. Der Fernsehr befindet sich im oberen Stock im offenen Schlafbereich. In der unteren Etage gibt es gar keinen. Ich möchte unbedingt sagen, dass wir eine sehr schöne Zeit hatten! Ich denke aber, dass diese Punkte für einige Reisende sehr wichtig sein könnten. Die Gastgeberin hat uns bereits im Vorfeld mehrfach kontaktiert und uns so ein gutes Gefühl vermittelt. Das Haus war sauber und fröhlich eingerichtet. Es wurden einem auch viele Informationen für die Umgebung zur Verfügung gestellt. Man hat sich sehr Willkommen gefühlt!

Julia- Thank you for your review and I'm glad you got to see Maine! The cottage is indeed original to the area and I do mention this in the description. The floors are new, but are not perfectly straight. I do mention in my description that guests with mobility concerns might be better suited elsewhere.
Internet and cell service for guest who come from other regions/countries also often have challenges making calls. There is one cell tower for the entire DownEast Maine region and larger nationwide carriers work best.
That said, I'm so glad that you all enjoyed the feel of the cottage and had a good time seeing Maine! It is a very rural, rustic area. No hotels. So, it is a little surprising at times for travelers new to the area. I've had guests from as far away as Beijing and Mexico City, and unplugging can be a little strange at first! I do my best to help my guests feel submerged in the area, and have an authentic experience.
I hope that your family took back many happy memories and will see more of the East Coast, USA, in the future!
Kindly-
Jen

Gemütliches Cottage
Gemütliches, gepflegtes und kreativ eingerichtetes Cottage. Ziele wie Deer Isle und Acadia National Park waren mit dem Auto gut und relativ schnell zu erreichen - die Hauptstrasse (Route 15/177) ist nur 5 Meter vom Haus entfernt. Auf den Geschirrspüler kann man leicht verzichten, da ohnehin nur eine genau auf die Anzahl der Gäste abgezählte Anzahl von Tellern zur Verfügung steht.
Dass es kein Wifi gibt war vorher bekannt. Nur leider hatten wir auch keinen Empfang für unsere Smartphones.

Om værten
Vært: Jen Rynbrandt
I'm Jen, a gallery represented artist since 2004, a busy mother of four, and devoted wife to my fella. Together, we renovated and updated this cottage as a year-round vacation home for us and to share with fellow avid travelers.
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
Coastal Maine has felt like home since my first visit back in graduate school. I suppose that's because my great- grandfather was a sea captain out of South Bristol, Maine, and the salt water is in my blood.
It's been a dream of mine to have my own place to detox, sit, read, write, and paint. This property offers that in spades. I've been very deliberate in appointing the colors and furnishings in both form and function, focusing on color and visual stimuli that both pleases the eye and allows one to rest.
Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt
There isn't a neighbor for a quarter mile. No lack of parking, no traffic. It is close to the road, so it's very easy to find with GPS, but private and comfortable. A place you wouldn't mind being at on a rainy day.
There is no internet, cable or wifi. This is intentional. This is a place for rest and resurgence of family ties, friends, and loved ones. Who needs Youtube when there's Balderdash? An Atari throwback showdown with the kiddos? Yes, please!
There's a kitchen table plenty big to work at if you must. But do be sure to prepare for fireside bonding, wild blueberry picking nearby, and the multitude of farmer's markets, local food and libations that Blue Hill has to offer. There's even a BYOB lobster shack in nearby Surry, where you can bring your 30 year old cognac to sip on in between buttery bites of fresh lobster and slaw.
