My family has been visiting and vacationing in Lubec for more than 20 years. We fell in love with the area's rugged coastline, abundant wildlife, friendly community, and breathtaking Bay of Fundy views, and in 2021 we were thrilled to purchase Halibut House and make it part of our family's story.

My husband is a commercial fisherman in the Florida Keys, and I serve as the president of our local animal shelter. As passionate animal lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, we enjoy sharing our adventures with family, friends, and our dogs. Our children; Jaden Chief of Coast Guard Station, Key West and daughter, Hanna a veterinarian still visit the cottage every summer!

We hope you'll create wonderful memories here and come to love Halibut House and the beauty of coastal Maine as much as we do.
