Acerca de este alojamiento

Elegante Boothbay Waterfront Estate-15 acres / jardines, senderos, vida silvestre

Aléjate de todo ... recupera el aliento.

A seis millas del bullicio del puerto de Boothbay se encuentra un tranquilo refugio frente al mar, llamado Bold Colorful Life, ubicado entre campos ondulados, muros de piedra serpenteantes y jardines perennes de colores vivos ... imagina un lugar que evoque tus mejores recuerdos ... ..y trae tus sueños de vacaciones a la vida audaz y colorida ...
La finca Bold Colorful Life consta de cuatro edificios de estilo de Nueva Inglaterra: granja y el histórico granero Homer Jones de 200 años de antigüedad; un cobertizo de jardín céntrico; un encantador y renovado Cabo de 1800 y el Granero de la Galería.

The Farmhouse combina nuevas comodidades con un sabor histórico, con porches exteriores y buhardillas, y una nueva terraza con fabulosas vistas al río, todo rodeado de jardines.
En el interior, el primer piso tiene una gran cocina totalmente equipada, un comedor y una gran sala, construida y amueblada con tableros de madera y vigas de 200 años. Estas habitaciones dan al río, a los atardeceres y al estanque. Una acogedora sala de medios con tecnología actual y un dormitorio y baño King con acceso para discapacitados dan al patio. En el segundo piso hay cuatro dormitorios adicionales con baños privados; dos frente al patio, dos frente al río y una sala de reunión sobre la gran sala.

Despiértese con el canto de los pájaros en los manzanos y la niebla de la mañana en el río Back ... luego haga un delicioso café y un desayuno abundante y saludable en la cocina totalmente equipada de la elegante granja.

Pasee por 15 acres de jardines y senderos en el bosque ... pida prestado un kayak sentado para remar con focas locales ... disfrute de los juegos, conozca a nuestras amistosas águilas calvas y otras criaturas ... mire las tortugas pintadas de Maine o escuche a las ranas en el estanque de agua dulce ... pasee por los terrenos del parque ... disfrute de nuestras invitaciones para 'bañarse en el bosque' en el sitio ... pasee por nuestro Sendero encantado y nuestra caminata de hadas ... tome un baño fresco o una vela en el río ...

Refrescado, aventúrate en la región de Boothbay para unirte a un barco turístico para ver ballenas o frailecillos, o para ir a la langosta, comprar, ver nuestras numerosas galerías de arte, probar algunos restaurantes locales y, en general, tener una visita memorable. ¡El jardín botánico costero de Maine está a solo 6,4 km! ¡Así es el campo de golf de clase mundial Boothbay Harbor Country Club! O intente caminar en cualquiera de las 13 reservas dentro de las 10 millas de esta casa.

Al final del día, imagine llegar a casa a tomar un aperitivo y beber en la cubierta delantera o nueva ... un buen libro en la hamaca ... una puesta de sol a través de las ventanas ... y un duerma largo y delicioso en una de sus cinco hermosas habitaciones con cuatro baños privados, ropa de cama colorida, ventiladores de padel, TV por cable, WiFli.

O ven a casa a una noche tranquila en una de tus cinco encantadoras habitaciones con cuatro baños privados, ropa de cama colorida, ventiladores de padel, TV por cable, WiFli ... en la casa del Cabo al otro lado del patio.

Renovado nuevamente, ¡vive tu vida audaz y colorida! Ambos edificios (el encantador e histórico Cabo y la elegante granja) están disponibles durante todo el año.

Es el destino perfecto para un retiro personal, una reunión familiar o escolar, una boda u otro evento de reunión. Vea más buscando en Google Bold Colorful Life Estate and Retreat Center.

Our Maine Event

Our home was lovely. Kitchen was huge and well stocked for our family of 8 adults. The home is well loved by the owner and you can tell by the care taken of the property. The great room had a fantastic view of the river behind. There were plenty of activities on the property and it was an easy drive to Boothbay for other activities.There was a lot of seating both inside and outside we enjoyed a nice view with our morning coffee on the deck. Hammocks were comfy and the peaceful nature around us was a breath of fresh air. Our family took advantage of the walking paths on the property and the owner gave us many other options around Boothbay.

A beautiful setting!

Our group of 8 (three generations of family) spent a wonderful week on this bucolic property.The beautiful farmhouse was clean and well furnished and looked exactly as it was represented in the photos. Bedding and towels were plentiful and clean. The house included everything we could possibly need -- if you can think of it, it was available, from laundry detergent to Tupperware to plenty of hangers to spices. The beds were comfortable and we all slept well. The area was quiet except for the sweet sounds of birds and frogs from the picturesque pond on the property. The kayaks were great and made for a fabulous adventure. We loved hanging out in nearby Boothbay Harbor. It is obvious that Melissa loves this place!

Great week in Boothbay

Melissa is a superb host and took the time to walk us through everything about the house and the area. Great spot with beautiful views and the great room is truly a great place for everyone to gather. It also helped that the weather cooperated for almost the entire week. Highly recommend.

A wonderful time, enjoyed every minute.

Melissa couldn't have been a better host, her warmth, wit and respect for our needs were all that we wished for. She is such an interesting person, passionate about her artfully restored farmhouse. She shared her love of the area and gave us a lot of good suggestions. Breakfast the next morning was delicious.

Awesome property!

We had a delightful stay at this home! Melissa was a gracious host and greeted us to review the grounds and property! She kept in constant communication throughout our week and gave us great recommendations for local restaurants and activities. My children and grandchildren enjoyed using the kayaks. The setting was peaceful and quiet. The house was equipped with anything you might need! The layout worked perfectly for our multigenerational family. I would definitely recommend!

a wonderful place to stay

The farmhouse is a spacious nicely decorated relaxing vacation spot. It is well equipped with comfortable beds and clean through out. The farmhouse in a beautiful setting overlooking a tidal inlet. We were a large group in town for a wedding. Our time at the farm house was very enjoyable. There was plenty or room for all of us, we had a great time sitting around the giant table and laughing the night away. Just be careful of the family airlooms that adorn the place.

The house was brightly colored and inviting from the moment we stepped inside. There were plenty of supplies throughout the beautiful home, and Melissa had thought of everything we might need during our stay. When we had questions or needs came up, Melissa was available immediately to do whatever was necessary to make it happen. The grounds are beautifully manicured and there is plenty of yard space for children to run and play. We especially enjoyed the rocking chairs on the front porch and the ones on the back deck.

Beautiful haven in Boothbay!

My father , who will be 90 soon, grew up visiting his cousins in Maine. He wanted the whole family to go again and stay in one big house! There were 12 of us and one, my mother, is physically disabled and can’t do stairs. This house worked perfectly for us! There was a handicapped accessible bedroom and bathroom on the first floor and lots of space to gather in. We were able to have all 12 people eat meals together at the huge dining table. The grounds are beautiful and there are several kayaks you can borrow. There is a view of the river from the back deck and we saw deer and a groundhog out back! It is very peaceful and secluded, but still not far from town. Melissa was great to work with and very communicative! We would definitely stay there again!

Had a great time here!

Just back from 8 nights at Bold Colorful Life and had a total blast! We were a party of eight — four adults and four 9- and 10-year old girls — and everything about this place was great. The kitchen and dining area are spacious and well-equipped, the deck large with a great view of the river (and some occasional pesky mosquitoes), the bedrooms comfortable and quirky. The property itself is fantastic — tons of places to explore, a pond to catch endless frogs in and a lovely river to kayak in during high tide. Melissa, the owner, is charming, responsive and had many great recommendations. The house is close enough to Boothbay (~10 mins), yet far away for some privacy, which we appreciated. And there are so many great things to do nearby: hiking, swimming at Knickerbocker Pond (highly recommended!), lighthouses, Pemaquid Beach, Ocean Point, Monhegan Island. It was a bit too far from Acadia NP for a day trip, but a quick hour to Camden State Park for some good hiking. All in all, it’s a perfect place for a group getaway. Highly recommended and we’d happily stay here again.

Large place needed for large party

We had to find a place for 7 adults and 3 children for a family reunion for the memorial for my mother. Places that can accommodate parties that large can be difficult to find. From the moment I began to communicate with Melissa (and mind you this was a very emotional time), I felt her kindness and her enthusiasm for our reunion at her farmhouse. I was BLOWN AWAY upon arrival to the property and even more so when she gave us the tour of the grounds and the home. We never felt crowded and the kitchen was SPECTACULAR! Lots of tears, lots of laughter and LOTS of great meals filled 802 Back River Road during our week. The place is absolutely MAGICAL both inside and out. The price may sound high at first but when split it up it was quite reasonable. You will not regret it! Thank you, Melissa, for everything!

Super Vacation Home with all the right stuff!

We are a family of 10. Last year we stayed in the Cape House which was lovely. This year we decided to stay in the bigger Farmhouse. It is a fantastic house. Truly a home away from home. My teenage daughter exclaimed "this place is awesome!" Everyone was very comfortable and happy having their own rooms and bathrooms. My 86 year old mother was very happy with her bathroom which was handicap equipped. The kitchen is well equipped and the large barn door kitchen table is a masterpiece! There is plenty of room for everyone and plenty of play space inside and out to keep our two toddlers happy. We also love the location. It is quiet and woodsy with a great view of the water. It is also minutes to downtown Boothbay. Melissa is a pleasure and very accommodating. We have already booked our return trip for next summer. Thanks Melissa from a very happy family!

Coming back— Soon!!!

We couldn't have picked a better spot to recapture and share with family & friends our memories of Down East Maine. First the all important tour— nice touch because there was so much there. It was Father's Day, so for the fist day we decided to make a Lobster feast (Pinkhams for Lobster) at the Farm. Everything was accurate down to the last detail. There really was so much to do right there, with all the trails, and gardens (the girls adored the fairy-gardening, kayaking, etc... but as far as outside activities, the Cabbage Island tour was the all-around favorite, with Botanical Gardens coming in a close second—oh, and the Royal River Grillhouse in Freeport on our way back to Portland was Fabulous. Still, for me, another week at home at Bold Colorful Life Farm, listening to the night frogs, smelling the peonies, and cooking up more lobster would have been just fine. Thanks for making everything so perfect, Melissa.

Family gathering in Boothbay at the rainbow house.

Three generations stayed with 4 grandchildren ranging in age from 3 - 11. The grandchildren were immediately enthralled with the collection of stuffed animals, games, musical instruments and interesting artifacts in the library and the TV room. They nicknamed the house, the rainbow house because of the vivid colors in each bedroom. It was perfect for us having 5 bedrooms and each bedroom having its own bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped and the grounds are a pleasure to stroll around and explore. Unfortunately due to Covid we were not permitted to entertain other members of our family, not staying at the house, but it would be perfect for a large gathering with a fabulous fire pit and lots of space. My husband and I used the kayaks the first morning and enjoyed going out, but the access is tricky for young children. We have stayed in Boothbay Harbor over many years, so this was a different location for us, but very easy to get into Boothbay Harbor and also convenient to the playground and The Maine Coastal Gardens. I would highly recommend it as a place to stay for a large group.

A beautiful spot for a wedding!

My fiancee (now husband!) and I, along with our families, rented both the farmhouse and cape house on this property for a week in early September. At the end of the week, we had a small wedding in the back yard, overlooking the beautiful Back River. We simply could not have asked for a better setting for our wedding!! The property is absolutely lovely, and the view of the Back River from the farmhouse is breathtaking. The houses are bold, colorful, and beautiful, as is the proprietor, Melissa! With 9 bedrooms between the two houses (5 in the farmhouse and 4 in the cape), each with a private bathroom, this place would be perfect for any large group! Finally, the location of this property is perfect- close enough to Boothbay Harbor to easily pop into town for shopping or dinner, but far enough out of town to get away from the hubbub and enjoy some peace and quiet! Melissa is warm and welcoming, and makes you feel like family from the moment you arrive. What a beautiful place for a vacation, and a wonderful way to start our married life! Thanks Melissa!

Wow what a great place!- Linda,Goffstown,NH

My 3 sisters and all of our spouses spent a long weekend at this fabulous farmhouse from 7/10-7/13/09. All 8 of us had a fantastic time. The farmhouse is a gorgeous creation by Melissa Thornton. She has taken pieces from the barn that once stood on the property and built this beautiful farmhouse with a spectacular view of the river that is surrounded by acres of wonderful wildlife of all kinds. The house has 5 beautiful colorful bedrooms all with their own baths. The kitchen is enormous with everything you need. Fully stocked and a table that seats 14 easily. The greatroom is full of windows and more windows that also look out over the river. Lots of space in this very large cathedral ceiling room. It's the perfect place to hang out together and read, do puzzles, play games or just talk and laugh Just awesome! So much to offer right on-site and if you are looking to get out and about, the beautiful botanical gardens and Boothbay Harbor are only minutes away. I can't say enough about the property and Melissa was a fantastic host. She was very accommodating and attentive to her guests. Would definitely return for another stay!

Big, Spacious - Perfect!

This is a fantastic spot! Between the Farmhouse and the grounds, a lot of space to unwind and relax and enjoy Boothbay. We had a group of 8, split evenly among adults and kids. The kids had plenty of choices for where to play inside and do their thing, and that didn't compete with what the adults wanted to do. The Library/Study on the main floor is an especially cool space. Love the large Kitchen and Dining Room. Easily handled the 8 of us when making meals and fixing snacks & cocktails. The outside and backyard was really nice. Lots to explore. The kids loved the various hammocks! We made good use of both the kayaks and the outside games/toys (wife ball, etc.). So many options; easy to keep the day rolling without anyone saying they are bored! Nice view of the tidal river from both inside the house and from the back deck. Just the right amount of water view to help you appreciate the area and set the right atmosphere. Very convenient location. It's just 15 minutes to downtown Boothbay Harbor and the all the restaurants and shopping. You don't have to over-plan the day in order to get into town. We really enjoyed our stay and Melissa was more than accommodating. Not that we needed anything but she was available if we needed her. I'd definitely go back!

Perfect rental for group of friends!

A group of 8 ladies rented this farmhouse for a weekend getaway in June. We live in New Hampshire and found the rental online. Boothbay Harbor was fun to explore for a day. The Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is a MUST visit. Spend at least 3 hours there. Great for the family and any garden lovers. This was a perfect rental for our group! Plenty of private space for everyone and great community rooms: kitchen, porch and living area. The kitchen was a highlight with the long table to enjoy meals and games after dinners. The large living room with the wall of windows was relaxing to sit, read, listen to music and enjoy the view. We enjoyed coffee on the deck seeing a deer in the field and listened to many birds singing beautifully every morning. The house is decorated with beautiful vibrant, fun colors. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of dishes, drinkware & serving pieces which all feel new - not worn as some rentals. Great rental for a group - we felt like we were in someone's country home Melissa was attentive to any need we might have and responded so quickly as we corresponded planning our weekend away. The rooms were so clean as were the bathrooms. The color coordination of all the rooms was so creative.. definitly planned by an artist! This is a special rental that would be wonderful for family or small group - comes highly recommended!

Great Family Vacation State

The "Bold Colorful Life Inn" we rented for 7days was the best choice I had ever made for my family reunion. We were 8 adults and 2 infants in a 5 suite mansion. Each room had its own bath and theme colored. Plush robes were provided, which we all wore every morning for breakfast. The space in the kitchen and dining area easily sits 20 people and with plenty of counter space for self serve meals. The house was large enough that we could all be doing separate activities at the same time without disturbing each other or those who preferred to sleep in the bedrooms on the first or second floor. The green lawn in front of the house provided a safe heaven for the little ones to crawl or run around while the adults played freesbe, BBQ or simply sat on the porch. The house was 10minutes by car from "downtown" Boothbay, were we rented kayaks and went on several tours like whale watching and "lobstering". A big and nice playground was between the house and downtown, a great location to allow the little ones to play while the adults rested. Melissa, the owner of Bold Colorful is a great hostess. She provided maps, information regarding tours and also had several items in the fridge we could use as a start up upon our arrival. The kitchen as well as each room were complete, with anything you needed from blenders to waffle makes. The bathrooms and bedrooms with linens, pillows, blankets, towels, hair dryers and more. When our vacation was over, we also left some left overs for the next renters and also new items they would need like coffee filters and sugar. Last but not least, Melissa was always close by not only to chat, but in case of emergency. Luckily we had no emergencies despite the wide range of ages from 9 months to 87 years old gread grandparents. If you plan to go to Maine and have a good time in a great place, go to Bold Colorful Life Inn. I am sure you won't regret it. How did I find it? It's the best well kept secret in Maine.

Imagen de perfil del propietario o de la propietaria
I’ve been saving for my ‘dream house’ for 40 years....and I fell in love with kayaking about 12 years ago. After a five year search through waterfront properties in CT, the Adirondacks, MA, NH and finally ME, this was the property that offered the combination of things I'd been seeking. And it was perfect for building vacation rentals so that the awesome environment could be shared.

The setting is idyllic...with fields, woods, many perennial gardens, apple trees, lilac trees and old stone walls wandering down to the Back River. There are 15 acres of land, facing west for sunsets, on the protected waterfront of Maine and with a big freshwater pond and woodlands. The whole estate sits atop Maine ledge, which is sculpted to fall gently towards the water.

It's in an area where I am able, in the 'off-season', to offer weekend and week-long retreats that combine personal growth, spirituality and 'back to nature' events, including hiking, paddling and exploring the nearby Botanical Gardens. And I want to share this beauty with as many people who love Nature and the wild, wonderful aspects of Maine as possible...so vacation rentals are the perfect answer.

Mother Nature has shaped this property to be both elegant and beautiful...the buildings are on the plateau at the top of the estate and the lawns and gardens, stone walls and woodlands slope gently down and down to the Back River. A great Blue Heron often visits the freshwater pond; then flies off towards the river. Our local pair of bald eagles are seen wheeling overhead regularly as the tides change. A huge porcupine was seen at the south end of the property recently and we have visits from foxes and deer, ospreys and hawks.
The property has a healing energy which most people feel the moment they step onto it. A visit here fills the vision with color, the spirits with hope and the body with calm and peace.

Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial

The Boothbay peninsula offers the perfect getaway. The area is naturally breath-taking, with forests and fields, farms and gardens, brash rocky coastline and gentle coves and lakes.
Boothbay Harbor is a charming town with lots of engaging activities and it’s just six miles down the road. This is the area to go shopping, visit galleries and craft fairs, sample local fare at great restaurants, enjoy deep water activities like whale watching and lobster-boating.

And there are natural bonuses: 13 nature preserves for hiking within 10 miles---5 within 5 miles---one within 1/2 mile; a world-class Botanical Garden within 4 miles; kayaking possibilities in rivers and lakes and the Atlantic. We also have a world-class golf course 4 miles away.
The Rockland/Camden area and Freeport shopping are within an hour's drive in either direction; and my favorite Maine park, Acadia National Park is just under three hours away. Nova Scotia and Prince Edward island, both favorite parts of Canada, are nearby too…
The Bold Colorful Life Estate is also a Retreat Center in the off-season, so plan to join us for a Retreat for personal growth, renewal and spiritual centering...The Bold Colorful Life Gallery offers colorful elegant jewelry, stunning natural photographs, and dramatic works of art in oil and pastel to our rental guests...when it's open.
