Just 10 miles inland from the beautiful, picturesque coastal town of Belfast Maine, Brooks is a charming small town with a small town feel. This beautiful lake-front home is only 20 minutes from Unity; home to the Common Ground Fair and 45 minutes from Bangor. A peaceful, winding, private dirt road will take you right up to the house. Directly across the road is our very own private beach with stunning views of the private, spring-fed lake! Behind the home are several thousand acres of beautiful woods. The grounds are naturally landscaped (no gardens in the front:)) with exposed ledge and all that nature can provide. The back yard also has a large fire pit, deck and is definitely rocky and woody (traverse carefully:)) Please note that guest are not allowed to start fires in either of the fire pits. On occasion, we can start a fire for you provided there is wood available. Although we share this private oasis with a few other camp owners, this serene setting is everything you can ask for to relax and renew the spirit. Just outside of your bedroom is a porch area that you can sit and enjoy a glass of wine, a cup of coffee, or anything else that is legal in the great state of Maine! We supply you with coffee upon your arrival and your refrigerator will be stocked with cold water. The barn door you enter your room from has a lock for your privacy and convenience. There are a few unique and wonderful art pieces in your room for you to enjoy. Please respect them. There’s nothing like living on the lake! If you feel adventurous enough to kayak or paddle board, we would be happy to arrange those items for you. Please give us 1 week advance notice as there is an extra cost in this. There are hiking trials throughout Maine and there are even a few close to the house. If the ocean is your thing, then take the short drive to Belfast. Belfast is a beautiful coastal town with a lot of “groovy” energy. Fantastic dining, schooner trips, park events, fishing trips and hiking trails all on the ocean! We are located only 30 minutes from the coastal town of Camden and 45 minutes from the coastal town of Rockland! There are non-stop events in the summer to enjoy all along the coast. Day trips to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are a must and are only 53 miles and 58 miles respectively. There is a shared entry way with us that leads to your own private room and bathroom. This is the only access to the house for guest. You can access all of the backyard and front yard areas as well. We are definitely sociable and don’t mind interacting with our guest over wine or whatever, but completely understand if you just want time to yourself to enjoy the beautiful, peaceful surroundings that this place can offer. Aside from being close to Belfast, Brooks has one of the most scenic golf courses in the state. There is also a small cafe (Ralph's Cafe) with wonderful breakfast and lunch during the week days and dinner on the weekends! Getting around in Maine is best done by car. No worries. Just about everywhere you go, beautiful scenery awaits you. Since we are located in a serene thickly wooded area, access to cable/satellite/wireless internet is not available. However, your room has a large TV and we’ve supplied you with a Blue Ray player and a few choices of movies. If you have a particular genera in mind, we might have it and would be happy to let you view them in your room.
