À propos de cet hébergement

Post and Beam Updated Farmhouse Style, Chebeague Island, ME

L'île Chebeague est relativement facile d'accès et située à proximité de Portland, la plus grande ville du Maine.

Nous sommes revenus sur ce site après deux ans avec une nouvelle maison à plan ouvert et poutre (construite en 2015) écoénergétique que nous louons aux familles de vacances sur une base limitée. Nous avons inclus dans nos frais deux dépôts remboursables pour le nettoyage et la sécurité. Qui ne sont pas étiquetés sur le site à notre grande consternation.

Renseignez-vous sur notre voiture insulaire. Emmenez nos cerfs-volants à la plage. Explorer cette île et les nombreuses plages est une exigence.

Marchez jusqu'à la plage depuis cette propriété isolée. Cette maison est située sur une charmante route secondaire sur 4. 5 acres de propriété. Il est conçu avec un clin d'œil à un quartier de maisons de style chalet et ferme. Mais, il est résolument moderne avec solaire passif (ombre en été) super isolé, fenêtres Marvin et portes françaises. Il est chauffé avec des mini fentes (échangeur de chaleur) qui produit également de la climatisation si nécessaire. Il y a un chauffe-eau à pompe à chaleur au sous-sol. Tous les appareils sont neufs, économes en énergie et à la pointe de la technologie. Une pelouse et un jardin ont été taillés dans les arbres environnants de 60 à 80 pieds de haut pour implanter la maison.

Nous sommes ravis de présenter cette maison pour votre plaisir. Bien que la maison soit compacte à 1980 pieds carrés sur deux étages, le plan ouvert et de nombreuses fenêtres et leur emplacement offrent une vue sur l'extérieur et agrandissent efficacement la maison. L'enveloppe de toit couverte autour du pont agrandit l'espace de vie à plus de 2000 pieds carrés. Beaucoup de nos clients passent beaucoup de temps sur le porche à lire ou à se détendre.

Une grande entrée vous accueille lorsque vous entrez avec une vue sur tout le premier étage. La cuisine a un grand réfrigérateur à portes françaises avec deux tiroirs ci-dessous, un évier de ferme et un îlot avec des sièges. Nous avons tous les pots, plats, verres et couverts dont vous avez besoin, y compris un casier à homard et tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour un fabuleux dîner au homard.

Au deuxième étage, la chambre principale est charmante avec un lit queen à volutes en fer blanc, une armoire, un bureau et des tables de bout avec lampes, un beau tapis de fleurs. Il s'ouvre sur un coin salon. Le centre de la maison est ouvert aux poutres du toit. Avec un coin salon, un bureau et un canapé pour une lecture tranquille. Au deuxième étage se trouvent également deux chambres avec lits jumeaux et une salle de bain avec baignoire profonde et douche à main. Profitez des brises d'été à travers la cime des arbres tout en vous baignant dans notre baignoire.

Au premier étage, la table à manger vieille de 100 ans peut accueillir six personnes. La salle "Away" contient des sièges et une grande armoire contenant une Smart TV et des jeux. Nous avons Internet pour votre commodité. La salle de bain au premier étage a un grand lavabo à l'ancienne et une douche de bonne taille, une armoire pour les serviettes. Niché à proximité se trouve la laveuse et la sécheuse dans son propre coin.

Traversez les portes françaises par la salle à manger / cuisine sur le porche couvert avec des sièges, un peu plus loin vous emmène à une table de pique-nique avec parasol et grill. Le porche est idéal pour s'asseoir à l'extérieur quand il pleut ou simplement à l'ombre de l'été.

Faites griller dehors sur la cuisinière au propane et savourez un délicieux dîner sur la table de pique-nique alors que le soleil se couche sur les arbres à l'ouest. Faites une promenade à l'extérieur à travers les bois ou sur la route d'une plage. Ou profitez simplement des oiseaux, des dindes et des cerfs qui entrent dans la cour. Nous avons du croquet et des cerfs-volants pour votre plaisir.

Chebeague a deux services de ferry, l'un appartenant aux insulaires, les boutiques de cadeaux, l'épicerie de l'île, la bibliothèque et de nombreux endroits pour déjeuner ou dîner avec vue. Déjeuner à l'auberge sur le porche un jour. Vous serez content de l'avoir fait. Il se passe beaucoup de choses en été. Nous proposons des cours de voile pour les enfants, du coaching dramatique et un jeu d'été produit localement, des cliniques de golf, une grande bibliothèque avec heure du conte, des randonnées à Deer Point ou une plage.

C'est un court saut vers le continent pour visiter ou dîner à Portland. Portland est l'une des grandes villes gourmandes du nord-est, tout en conservant l'ambiance d'une vieille ville de la Nouvelle-Angleterre. De plus, les musées et les magasins sont excellents. Il vaut bien une excursion d'une journée en ville.

My family and I had a fantastic stay at this wonderful home. Chebeague Island was a magical place stay for a week, and we truly enjoyed this home as our home base. Communication with Patricia was very clear and easy, and she even picked us up and dropped us off at the ferry with all of our luggage. She answered all of our questions regarding transportation to and from the island, and was a kind host. The home is very modern and was a wonderful place to relax after exploring for a day. A highlight was the strong AC which made the home comfortable on hot days. We loved Chebeague!

Great place to stay

I stayed with my family for a week and we had a great time. The house was well stocked and best of all had A/C which helped us survive a few hot days. The only thing to note is that the guidebook in the house is a little out of date so make sure to do some of your own research. You will want to bring your own bikes (can't rent from the inn anymore) and/or a car because having a form of transportation is essential. Overall I would recommend this house to anyone looking to spend a relaxing week in Maine.

Fabulous, comfy home on an amazing island!

We had just a 4-day get-away, but it was absolutely spectacular! Pat's home is gorgeous - warm and comfy - with everything you need to have a relaxing stay! Pat and Roman were super kind and accommodating. They made sure we had a ride from the ferry and use of the car, and Pat provided lots of details regarding the house, where to dine, etc. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Lovely rental

We had a wonderful trip to Chebeague and found the island to be beautiful and relaxing and the residents to be very welcoming. Loved having lobsters delivered to the door from Addie and walking down the path to a secluded, rocky beach. Pat was very happy to help get us settled in and was available for questions. The home was beautifully decorated and the kitchen was extremely well-equipped. Would recommend to folks looking for a relaxing trip in a beautiful setting.

Perfect family reunion

The house and island were beautiful. Patricia and Roman were wonderful hosts who made arrival and departure a breeze, and we're very responsive and accommodating. The island is easy to navigate and the beaches are all unique, and kid friendly with small waves, gentle entries, and plenty of seashells, hermit crabs and snails. My kids (2 and 3) loved exploring, digging, and splashing. If you have young kids definitely bring strollers. The use of the island car was a wonderful bonus for making it easy to reach all corners of the island with the entire family.

A great family vacation at the Woodlands Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully designed, spacious and open post and beam farmhouse cottage on Chebeague Island. This was our first stay at the cottage but it won't be our last! The cottage is slightly tucked away from the road giving you privacy but still an easy bike or car ride to many of the wonderful places the island has to offer. The house was very comfortable for our family of four. With two young children it was great to have all the modern kitchen amenities and the new finishings but with an old farmhouse style. The house is amazingly energy efficient. We had a couple very hot days, so it was great to have central air even though we only had to keep it on to cool the house and then we would turn it off and the house would stay cool for the remainder of the day. The house also has very good internet and cell phone service for the island, a nice plus! Patricia was a fantastic host. Always reachable by phone or text with any questions. We look forward to our next visit.

Sophisticated, Secluded with Access!

We spent 6 days at The Woodlands. The house is lovely - great modern convenience with eclectic decor. Excellent kitchen to cook in with options to eat in and outdoors. Patricia was very hospitable - she even picked us up from the ferry! READ her the letter she sends before your trip, it is full of information!!! We enjoyed what Chebeague had to offer - Indian point beach is a must! We dined at Slow Bell and The Chebeague in (plus cocktails on the patio one night). Doughty's had every thing we needed to compliment our shopping trips to Portland. Few must do while visiting Chebeague - Contact Chebeague Water Taxi and do the lobster experience. We were able to board a lobster boat, observe the process and take home FRESH lobsters from the sea. Visit Eagle Island and Jewell Island for some history, a cool hike and amazing tidal pools. The Dolphin was a fun restaurant to take a water taxi and have dinner. Finally, Portland has amazing food both restaurants and fresh catch to cook back at the Woodlands. We will be back to Casco Bay!

Thank you for the wonderful thoughtful review. I am impressed that you explored so many options that the area offers while you were at Woodlands. You also took advantage of our wonderful "foodie" city, Portland. You even did a few things that I didn't know you could do without your own boat. Very impressive! Chebeague also has a golf course and a town swimming pool, Historical Society, Library and tennis. Please keep up in mind for future vacations in Maine.

Beautiful, off the beaten path retreat

We (a family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 boys 5 & 8) stayed here in late August. We knew very little about Chebeague Island before embarking on our adventure. But we managed to figure things out with the help of the owner, the internet and speaking to locals on the island. There was a simplicity to Chebeague that welcomed us with open arms. We had fun walking the beaches, searching for sea glass, swimming at the community pool, driving around the island, eating at the Inn, Slow Bell Cafe, and breakfast at the Niblic. Everyone we encountered was warm and friendly. The house was gorgeous and well appointed. It had everything we needed and more. We felt very cozy - playing in the yard, sitting on the porch, playing games in the living room, cooking in the kitchen... I loved the decor and modern conveniences of brand new everything (appliances, washer dryer, bathrooms). Chebeague is a magical place. It was certainly for us. But one word of caution, if you're reading this wondering about the "night life" on Chebeauge, or looking to party, then perhaps this little island isn't for you. It's slower here. Be prepared to slow down, unwind, take time. A funny side note, there was a garage/store on the island and there was a painted sign outside that said "if you don't have 20 minutes then don't stop". I think that adequately sums up Chebeague. If you don't have time to take the time then this might not be the place for you. But if you are looking to mellow out and be off the grid for a few days then definitely consider this place. You won't regret it. Thank you to Patricia Festino, the owner, for sharing her beautiful place with us.

Beautiful home

Patricia was very responsive whenever I sent her a text. She was also there to help us arrive and leave, a necessity considering how busy the dock area is and the lack of rental cars on the island. The house itself has plenty of rooms and beds. The AC was amazing when we used it. The yard around the house was well maintained and the kids loved exploring the area. Biking all over the island wasn't difficult, but the car that was available was much appreciated! There's a lot to be said for how amazing the island is, bit Patricia's guide included a lot of information on all that's available. Thanks for having us!

Wonderful stay at Woodlands House!

Our September week at Woodlands House provided luxury and simplicity. The home was beautifully furnished and very well stocked for cooking, reading and relaxing. We enjoyed reading and eating on the wide covered porch. The location mid-way on the island allowed for walking to beaches on both ends of the island, and a short walk to the Island Market and Library. Took one trip to main land and one trip to Cliff Island. Our adult daughter, mom and brother all loved our visit! Patricia and Roman are wonderful hosts. We would love to return.

Beach, people, weather, food, island life -- PERFECT!

We had an island car which was very useful for transporting goods and for exploring remoter areas. We had a baby with us so long walks were less fun for her! The house was nicely located near hotel, golf, tennis. Our favorite beach turned out to be at the opposite end of the island -- just a 5 minute car ride away!. Could not find bikes to rent which was too bad. Highly recommend Chebeague. House was lovely. Read three books, cooked a mountain of food! Everyone was so friendly and helpful -- luggage, boats, rides. All good!

Beautiful house! Close to everything.

I was recently married on Chebeague Island. My family stayed in the house and we used it for all the Bridesmaids to get ready the morning of. It was perfect. It's open and airy, nicely decorated. The backyard is big and has a grill. The owners allowed us to use their car and even delivered it to us at the ferry. They were also responsive and easy to deal with. Highly recommend!

This is my second home on Chebeague Island. The first was a renovation of an 1855 foreclosure which was throughly renovated, walls moved and strengthened. It was sold (although not listed for sale) a few years later. What I really wanted was a home of my own design, passive solar and energy efficient. This home is the result of my wishes and meets those requirements.

I am from Maine but had been away for fifteen years. I came back to Maine in 2010 when I found a house on Chebeague that suited my taste and was in foreclosure. The house I found on Chebeague I named "House on the Hill" a historic family home and was in dire need of renovation including supporting the house from the basement up, heating system, new plumbing and walls moved at the top of the lists.

I had lived on my boat for five years and sailed back and forth from Maine to the Caribbean. I found that my parents needed me in Florida so I took down my sails and stopped in Florida where I spent ten years.

After spending so many years in the tropics my heart's desire was to have a super insulated home and be near my family. I had the family part solved as I had raised my children close to Chebeague in Maine.

So while I was happy to have and dearly loved my last home I sold it and started to look for property to build my next home.

I didn't want to leave Chebeague which is a very special place to live and looked at every property that was listed or even rumored for sale. I was not sure that I wanted to live on this side of the island but when we turned down Carter's Point and I saw the wonderful homes close to the site, I lost my heart.

After designing or renovating and building five houses I had found a wonderful place to build my home which I now offer to share with you.

Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement

One of the many special things about Chebeague is the people, friendly and caring. We have wonderful neighbors.

The island has a lot to offer, two ferry services, the elegant Inn, library, top rated schools and recreation center with pool, tennis, golf, island grocery, Historical Society, the many beaches surrounding the island, easy access to seafood if you fish. Fishing for mackerel, squid or stripers as the season provides. Second Wind Farm organic produce. Lobsters delivered to your door. Local organic eggs are also available. Wonderful walking or biking, birding or photography.

In the summer there are several places to enjoy lunch with beautiful views, gift shops, even the transfer station is a special island experience.

Two ferry services offer easy access to the mainland and Portland, the largest city in Maine. From Portland fly, bus or train to any destination in the world.

A very special place to build my home.

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

I designed this home myself with some valuable input from Raoul Hennin of Montsweg Brook Corporation. When I walked down the road I realized how beautiful this old neighborhood is. The trees, the homes, the wildflowers and ferns on the side of the road. A lovely short walk downhill will lead you to water in either of two different directions. A wonderful spot for my next home. Families on Chebeague have been here through generations. The family I bought my first house from had built it in 1855. They are still here. Even the summer people have been coming to the island for generations and most own historic summer homes here over generations.

This new house is completely modern post and beam with state of the art energy efficient appliances, passive solar, covered porch and designed with a nod to the surrounding homes which are New England farmhouse or Island Cottage style. It is furnished with a mix of antiques and modern furniture. Colors are muted and lend a warm comforting ambience to the rooms.

The property has a mature beech grove on the east side of the house. There is forested wetlands including streams to the west. Many interesting plants and animals live here. If you stand in a special spot on the property there is a water view.

My children kayak over in the summer to visit. We have offered a four person golf cart for transportation in the past. The island has many golf carts in the summer.

The house has views of slightly different types of forest from every spot you stand or bathe. The covered wrap around porch is inviting in all kinds of weather. The house is climate controlled. A walk in the woods or down the hill erases all stress.
