We built this cabin recently with siblings and a few skilled friends to make a getaway place for the extended family. It is built on property adjacent to our fruit farm which is slowly building up to full production with a kiwi orchard planted, ramps seeded, saffron planted, and a producing strawberry hoophouse for early ripening fruit. We move our horse and pony around to different fields during the warmer months, and keep pekin ducks (the white ones) (now all in retirement!). The farm is 80+ acres with logging roads and is located on a quiet road. Food markets and some good places to eat are within 6-7 miles. If you come in the fall you should know that the roof is insulated but the walls are not - so layer up, bring extra blankets, and hugging the woodstove might be necessary! There is an outdoor shower, a nice outhouse, a campstove, oil lamps etc - so it's is very old fashion yet comfortable cabin stay!Our lovely off-grid cabin is located on a quiet part of our organic fruit and saffron farm here in midcoast Maine. There are trails behind the cabin and you are welcome to take a tour of the farm plots and visit the horses if out in the pasture. In August you may be able to rake some blueberries right out the door - if you can beat the birds to them! We built the cabin just a few years ago for family to enjoy and found there was plenty of time during the warmer seasons for others to enjoy it as well. We are located in lovely midcoast Maine with lots to see and do if you like to take walks and explore and perhaps do some paddling. Our local trail guide shows the most public walking and hiking trails in our town in the entire county - so pretty cool! The Camden Hills are just to our north, the boat ferry is out to Monhegan Island is just a jaunt down the road, we have a great low key lobster place we like to recommend….it’s not Bar Harbor and we like it that way! Fall is the perfect time to visit Maine - stunning views with our fall foliage display, often warm days to hike and paddle and cool nights to cozy up to the inside wood cookstove. But mostly - on this quiet road - why don’t you just sleep in and relax! Why rush? Cook a meal on the outside fire…..read in the rocking chair in the roomy screened porch. Besides dining in the screened porch there is an eat-in kitchen and living space with a two burner campstove as well as the wood cookstove, and a main floor bedroom. Sleeping arrangements include the bedroom with a full size bed, a loft with a full sized futon and twin size mattress on the floor, and the living space has a couch which can be opened to a full sized futon (watch your fingers when opening it out!). Sheets are provided and we ask you to bring your own blankets (there are a few in the cabin but depending on weather may not be enough) and towels. We have a few oil lanterns, and candle holders (bring some!) as well as solar powered general lighting (so it may be intermittent) but do bring flashlights for trips to outhouse or reading at night! There's an outdoor raised firepit with seating provided, an enclosed outdoor shower with solar water bags, and an outhouse. We ask that you park and leave your vehicle at the stone wall opening as the field is starting to be restored. We are 6 miles to supermarkets and misc. local eateries and there are lots of parks and protected areas to explore.
