What a special place. The property and land feels so loved, cared for, peaceful and deeply connected to nature. The apartment was spotless, extremely comfortable with gorgeous views of the land and perfect for our stay. We especially loved the pups and horses and think of them all often. Teresa and Ken were incredibly warm, welcoming and accommodating. We will definitely be back.

The location is beautiful and the place is as advertised. The bed was comfy. It was under 25 minutes to get to Yarmouth where family was staying and on the way to Mt. Abrams to do some biking on the ski slopes. The ceilings are a little low (it has a drop ceiling) and there aren’t many uncluttered surfaces.

About the host

Hosted by Teresa Hough

Host profile image
My husband and I have been in Maine for twenty years but only in New Gloucester for six. I have a love of horses, and he has a love for flying. We have four grown children and our first grandchild in 2024 (boy) our second grandson is on the way in July 2026. We have lots of four-legged babies which you will meet during your stay. We enjoy the outdoors and when not working our full-time jobs we will be doing what we love, riding and flying.

Why they chose this property

New Gloucester, Maine, is a charming and predominantly rural town that offers a quintessential New England experience. It's known for its picturesque landscapes of farms, woods, and fields, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle.

What makes this property unique

What makes our VRBO studio truly unique is the immersive experience it offers, blending the tranquility of a vast working horse farm with immediate access to natural beauty.

Unlike typical rentals, you're not just near a farm; you're on a sprawling 77-acre working horse farm. This means daily exposure to the gentle rhythms of farm life, the sight of horses grazing, and the comforting presence of our friendly dogs and cats. It's a genuine taste of rural living, far removed from urban hustle.

This combination of genuine farm life, vast open space, animal presence, and convenient access to nature creates a distinct and memorable stay that you won't find just anywhere.
