Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Denise Hue

We enjoy the outdoors as much as our work schedule allows. Maine offers so many great areas to explore hiking, boating, hunting, biking, skiing, bird watching, fishing. Nature never fails to provide constant entertainment. While at home, we garden for fresh veggies, apples and berries. We also tend our small flock of chickens and ducks for fresh eggs every morning and have a flight pen for chukar partridges. We are training our hunting dogs, two Brittanys who share our love for the outdoors. You might find us in the backyard in the winter months boiling down maple syrup or in the summer planting flowers and vegetables.
Why they chose this property
Denise is a certified public accountant and David is a jeweler. Together with David's brother, we own a store in Downtown Ellsworth on the Union River. We love living on this beautiful Ellsworth Falls property because it is the perfect blend of town and country living. Although it's a five minute drive to work, we get to enjoy our spacious lawns, gardens and forests.
We have been landlords for 23 years for year round rentals and have converted some units on our large campus to offer as fully furnished rentals. We have spent a great deal of time outfitting our places so they would be comfortable and convenient.

What makes this property unique
The house is located in a residential neighborhood and is part of a large campus of homes, gardens and forest also owned by the hosts.
If you have a large party such as a wedding, please ask us about our other vacation rentals that share a common backyard. We have two other houses and an executive apartment available.
The walk/bike trail head (rail to trail) is nearby that connects Ellsworth Falls to Downtown Ellsworth. 11 minutes by bike and 35 minutes on foot.
The Friends and Family Market (and Shell gas station) is about five minutes on foot.
Our favorite spot is Dorr's Fish Market across the street. They will cook lobsters for you so you can avoid the fuss or sample their delicious lobster rolls.
