Hi, we’re Jeff & Jess, along with our son JJ. We live here in beautiful Freeport, Maine and are the owners and operators of ProActive Properties. Since 2014, we have welcomed guests to some of our favorite destinations throughout Maine and beyond, helping families and travelers create memorable experiences together.
Travel and hospitality have always been a major part of our lives. Jeff is also the owner of ActivSport Travel, an international educational and sports travel company that has organized experiences around the world for schools, teams, and groups. Jess has an extensive background in education as a high school math teacher and has also led international educational travel programs. Our shared passions for travel, skiing, soccer, the outdoors, and exploring new places inspired us to create spaces where others can relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories.
This home is especially meaningful to us. We first discovered this property in the summer of 2014 while walking our beloved dogs, Gustav and Nelson, near Wolfe’s Neck State Park. From the moment we found it, we envisioned creating a peaceful coastal retreat where guests could truly experience the natural beauty, privacy, and charm of Maine.
We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do. Whether you are kayaking along the coast, relaxing by the fire pit, exploring Freeport and Portland, or simply enjoying the quiet surroundings, we hope your stay becomes a special and memorable experience for you and your family.
Please make yourself at home and treat the property with the same care and respect you would your own. We have thoughtfully prepared the home and this guide to help you enjoy everything the area has to offer.
Thank you for staying with ProActive Properties. We truly appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back again in the future.
Enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property
Welcome to western Maine! We hope you have a wonderful stay at our chalet near Sunday River and enjoy everything this beautiful four-season mountain region has to offer.
We chose this property because it offers the perfect balance of location, privacy, and authentic Maine mountain charm. We wanted to be close to Sunday River Resort and Bethel’s restaurants, breweries, and activities, while still having a peaceful place to relax away from the busy resort condo atmosphere. The location truly offers the best of both worlds.
One of our favorite parts of the property is the spacious backyard leading down to the Sunday River itself. During the warmer months, it is a great place to relax, enjoy nature, fish, swim, or simply unwind after a day of outdoor adventures. Being within walking distance of local breweries and restaurants is an added bonus that makes the location even more special.
We found this chalet in 2021 and immediately knew it would become a place where families and friends could gather year-round to enjoy skiing, hiking, mountain biking, fall foliage, and everything the Bethel and Sunday River area has to offer. When we are not hosting guests, we enjoy spending time here ourselves with family and friends along with our son.
Whether you are here for a ski trip, mountain biking weekend, hiking adventure, brewery tour, or simply to relax in the hot tub and enjoy the mountains, we hope your stay becomes a memorable Maine experience.
Please make yourself at home and treat the property with the same care and respect you would your own.
Enjoy your stay!
