About the host

Host profile image
We grew up in Southern Maine and enjoy everything this great State has to offer, from Hiking, biking, swimming, surfing, kayaking and running we try to do it all. We spend as much time outside in nature as we can. We love to travel and explore but there is nothing like coming home to Maine.

Why they chose this property

Because we've lived in Maine our whole lives we knew we wanted to buy a lakeside property so that we could share a little piece of our lives with others. We take pride in offering an experience to our guests that they will talk about for years to come.
