Magical Weekend

I first found this property while looking for a wedding venue. I reached out and Lynn was quick to respond and organize a tour of the property. From the first step inside, I was blown away, and it only got better as we saw more of the house. While I wanted to have my wedding here, we soon realized we had too many guests, however decided to keep the rental so our families could all be together. I cannot put into words what an incredible weekend we had! The Emerson House is not only stunning, but had room for everybody to be comfortable. There was something for everyone to do, from hang out on the deck, to sit around the fire pit, to play horseshoes, to canoeing. The house itself was an attraction for both family that stayed with us, and those that popped by to visit. It is full of incredible antiques, and each room is put together with detailed thought and themes. The backyard is magical, complete with a beautiful frog lily pond. Each and every person barely had the words to describe how incredible it was. Lynn was a pleasure to work with and very accommodating when it came to questions and even needing to pop by and take one more look to figure out room assignments. I cannot thank Lynn enough for opening up her house full of treasures and sharing with us! We will be back the next time we have family visiting us in Maine!!! 💛

Beautiful and Relaxing Oasis

This property is beautiful and relaxing. The pictures do not do it justice. There is so much thought put into the decor and it is very comfortable and cozy. We had a party of 10, 8 adults and 2 nine year olds. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their space, when needed, as well as plenty of spots for togetherness. Lynn have a lovely tour upon arrival and was super responsive to all of our inquiries. My only regret was that I did not have more downtime to spend on the property itself. I will definitely rent again if I have a larger party.

Historic Home

This is a beautiful home with a stunning back and front yard. Very relaxing sitting on the back deck, listening to the frogs. The bonus room was spacious and comfortable. Owner was quick to resolve television issue. Would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn

I wanted to restore this New England Cape and Greek Revival home back to its original features and I love antiques, so, after two years, the home is finally ready to share with guests. I call it my "masterpiece" and am very proud of how it turned out. I hope you enjoy the home and its many splendors as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

It is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. It is located on a quiet street close to Bar Harbor, Castine, Deer Isle, Blue Hill, Belfast and Bangor and it's just outside of Bucksport.
