About this property

An Authentic Clean & Cozy Maine Homestay

This private, animal-free* home, managed by Nifty Bug Rentals, has been refurbished with a brand new kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. Originally ‘The Priest House’, parts of the home date close to 100 years. Guests feel the pulse of a New England community while maintaining a feeling of coziness and privacy. Conveniently located near Tilton's Market, Post Office and High School. Only 15 minutes from Androscoggin Riverlands State Park, 25 minutes from Bates College in Lewiston and 1 hour from Portland. Ski and snowboard at Black Mountain (45 minutes), Mt Abram (45 minutes), Lost Valley (25 minutes), Pleasant Mountain (52 minutes), Sunday River (60 minutes) or Attitash/Wildcat (1 hour 30 minutes). 4 to 5 Guests can comfortably share this rental with 2 bedrooms and a third optional bedroom. Wifi and Apple TV included. Please note that the AC is not central air conditioning. There is a new air conditioner in the upstairs master bedroom and the loft and living room have ceiling fans. To keep our cleaning fee low on our full cottage, we charge an additional daily fee of $10 per person per stay for more than 2 guests. Infants staying with a couple in the master bedroom are not included as additional guests. (*Due to severe allergies, our listing is an animal-free zone. We are unable to safely host guests who travel with pets or service animals. Thank you for your understanding.)
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Menes

Host profile image
I work as a touring artist and media producer and love to travel and escape into nature. My partner, Andrea, who is originally from Prague, Czech Republic, is a woman of many talents who loves nature and the arts. We make our home together here in rural Maine. We enjoy Airbnb hosting and welcome guests from all around the world. When we travel, we prefer to stay away from the touristy places and hang out with the locals, discovering hidden places and having authentic experiences. We live nearby our Village House in case there are any issues that come up with our rentals.

Why they chose this property

This is a great property for folks who are visiting family or friends in the area, planning outdoor activities, attending weddings or events, or who are in the area for work assignments. The internet is fast for doing work on line and everything is convenient being right in the village. Our neighbors are quiet and respectful.

What makes this property unique

The Nifty Village House is an authentic homestay. It's not a commercial rental property. It feels like a real home because it has many handcrafted features and the furnishings that are family treasures that go back several decades.
