Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Suzie Smith

I am a high school teacher in the KC area and my wife is a Pharmacist working in an outpatient hospital pharmacy. We have traveled the coast of Maine for years and love our second home - Ellsworth, ME. Though we don't live in the area full time, we have been apart of the Downeast community for 20+ years. We have owned several properties here and love to share all the wonders of Maine with our friends and family. It truly is a special place. We love Ellsworth, and think our little town is a fantastic place to live, work, and visit. We are pretty meticulous about the upkeep of our homes, and we work very hard to ensure our guests feel comfortable while staying here. We believe our guest they will find our lakeside homes to be a peaceful place to relax and unwind after a long day of exploring all the area has to offer.
Why they chose this property
Leonard Lake is a hidden gem, right in the heart of Ellsworth. This lake is so quiet and peaceful, you rarely see anyone on the water. As one of the only waterfront homes on the lake, we feel like its our own private place to fish, kayak or swim.
What makes this property unique
This cozy home was originally built in 1964. We bought the home from the original owners and did a complete gut and remodel down to the studs. Every inch of the home is new, and we have put in many personal touches that define Maine's quality of life and immense beauty. Additionally, the home is so close to the water, you feel like you can almost touch it from the any of the windows. The firepit and patio area are perfect for gathering with family and enjoying the beautiful sunsets over the water.
