À propos de l’hôte
Hôte : Meg Hackett
I grew up in Boston and now live with my family on the east side of Cleveland. Being from New England, Maine has always had a special place in my heart. This house is a favorite escape for our family, and we're so excited to share it with you too!
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
Nestled on three acres, Whitney Waters Retreat is a peaceful escape that is also perfectly located to access all corners of Mt Desert Island so you can experience all the island has to offer. We love being just a quick 5-minute walk from the beach at Long Pond for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and fishing.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
This property feels like home - from the cozy Maine decor to the well stocked kitchen - but it also feels like a luxury escape! The 1,200 SF game room is a favorite with kids and the perfect way to spend a rainy day. The hot tub and sauna are loved by adults and children alike, and families and friends can't get enough of spending a night around the fire pit, roasting s'mores, telling stories, and having a good laugh. My family can't get enough of it!
