About the host
Hosted by Lad and Christina Mills
We appreciate the quaint village and cottage, and hope our guests will, also. The town dock is a great place to tie up a dingy or canoe, or sit at the table so nicely situated. We enjoy the village atmosphere, the beautiful views, and close proximity to fresh lobster.
