3. Please contact me before entering your credit card and submitting a reservation request. Most guests book with me privately so the calendar is not accurate.

THANK YOU for understanding the above three points!


Located 1 minute from beautiful Higgins Beach and only 15 minutes from downtown Portland. Please check with me regarding dates, as the calendar is not accurate.

The home sleeps up to 30 guests (please ask about extra beds when hosting large groups). Perfect for family reunions, Bachelor & Bachelorette weekends, birthday parties, wedding & baby showers, corporate retreats, rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches and more. Please note that the beds in the home sleep 20-23 people, depending on the composition of your group (singles versus couples). In order to accommodate overnight guests in excess of 20, let's have a conversation about adding extra beds. We can provide extra beds for really large groups but need at least 1 weeks' notice in order to do so.

This 5.5 acre luxurious estate property with a large main house and an attached apartment was fully renovated in the modern farmhouse style by one of the Portland area's leading experts in that style. The original farmhouse burned down and was rebuilt in the late 1990s (with the salvaged antique pumpkin pine floors) and massively renovated in 2020.

The 5100 square foot main house (plus attached 550 square ft. 1 BR/1BA apartment) is typically set up as follows. Extra beds can be brought in, as needed.

The outdoor living space of the home is absolutely spectacular. We added a VERY large oversized deck on the back of the house (off the kitchen) to feature outdoor dining space and lounge furniture. We have stunningly beautiful and very comfortable lounge seating for 10++. 2 sofas, 4 oversized chairs and 2 very large ottomans. We also have 2 large dining tables and oversized/comfortable dining chairs for 12 that can be added to the lounge area for plenty of room for large groups to gather comfortably. The dining chairs are very oversized and comfortable and can be pulled into the lounge area to seat 22 guests comfortably (2 sofas, 16 large/comfy chairs and 2 ottomans when the dining chairs are pulled into the lounge area).

In addition to the deck, there is a large stone patio (18" x 18") with 14 Adirondack chairs encircling a brand new very large custom-built propane fire pit with a plumbed gas line, so you never run out of propane. We have additional comfortable seating at the house (in the barn) for really large groups).

A very large and very high-quality 7-seat hot tub is now located on a small first floor deck platform that is adjacent to the entry to the walk-out basement for the convenience of being able to walk almost directly into the new large full bathroom after using the hot tub.
