GUESTS BEST SUITED FOR THIS PROPERTY Responsible guests looking to get away and enjoy the peace and quiet of our property, relaxing in the beautifully designed home and enjoying local attractions like hiking, water holes, mountain biking, golf and winter sports. This includes small or large families and friends in groups of 12 or fewer. The property is suitable for guests of all ages including babies and children, though we do require that the person booking the listing be at least 27 years old. If you are traveling with small children, we do have a pack & play, kids toys and lots of books. Although we love dogs, no pets are allowed. There’s a doggy boarding house two minutes away which costs $20/night. Like most cabins in Maine, we don’t have central air but it’s cool in the evenings here, and we have ceiling fans and lots of windows. NOTE: Road to the house is plowed and sanded however four wheel drive is wise in the winter time. Guest access This is a single family home. Guests have access to the entire property. We require guests to be over 27th years old and sign our short-term vacation lease agreement. Other things to note My husband and I purchased this home in March 2018 as a weekend getaway for our family. We have a toddler and use the home from time to time when it’s not rented so there are some of our personal items there as well as kids toys which we welcome guests to use
