My husband wants to come back every year!

The place was perfect! You are so secluded, the hot tub looking at the lake under the trees is a vacation in itself. We were able to easily access Bangor, Belfast, and Bar Harbor during our stay. Many thanks for a lifetime of great memories of our first trip to Maine!
