About this property

Peaceful Cottage on Maine Flower Farm

ABOUT THIS PROPERTY
Nestled next door to Ferris Farm, our family-run flower farm, this charming cottage offers a private place to rest and recharge. Thoughtfully simple and cozy, it’s designed for guests who appreciate quiet mornings, fresh air, and an easy pace.

Enjoy slow, coffee-filled mornings, peaceful walks, and cozy evenings by the fire pit. Use the cottage as your home base to explore nearby beaches (about 30 minutes away) or head into Portland (about 35 minutes) for breweries, coffee shops, and great dining.

Perfect for a couple’s retreat, a solo escape, or a remote work getaway, with reliable Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace.

THE SPACE
The cottage is minimal yet comfortable, offering everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE
• A sun-speckled dining nook, perfect for slow mornings with coffee
• Fresh country air and quiet walks right from your doorstep
• A cozy living space with books, blankets, and room to unwind
• Starlit evenings by the fire pit or quiet nights in with a home-cooked meal
• Reliable Wi-Fi and a comfortable workspace for remote work
This is a peaceful, adults-only retreat meant for rest, creativity, and connection with nature.

GUEST ACCESS
The cottage sits on a separate lot next to Ferris Farm and feels private and peaceful. We’re nearby if you need anything during your stay, while still respecting your privacy.
Guests also enjoy access to the Saco River, just a scenic five-minute walk from the cottage. This shared area includes a picnic table, Adirondack chairs, two kayaks, and a dock for relaxing and enjoying the water. While shared with our family, we always prioritize guest privacy and a quiet experience.
