It was a totally amazing spot. All decorated for Halloween. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was superb. We enjoyed visiting with the guests at the breakfast table. We have already booked for another stay in November. Keith and Gretchen, the owners, were very accommodating and delightful!

Absolutely wonderful

This is the most wonderful stay I have had in a long time. The house feels like home. I had an early flight so I didn't get to have the breakfast. This will be my go to stay for all Maine trips.

Gretchen and Keith are fantastic hosts. They were very friendly and great to talk with. They gave me tips on the best places to eat, and for a great lobster roll. If I am ever in the area again I will be staying there.

The location was perfect for us. We like to wander the Cornish area, but it is also very convenient to get to Portland or the mountains in New Hampshire. The owners are very accessible for suggestions or assistance. The breakfast meals were excellent. Will definitely stay again.
