Modern kitchen with premium Italian appliances

Cook with premium Italian appliances in the sleek kitchen and unwind in the two custom-designed bathrooms. The cement soaking tub—one of the home’s standout features—provides a serene space to relax, with views into the tranquil woods. The woodwork throughout pays homage to the region’s boat-building heritage, and the walls display works from local artists. Books about the area can be found in each room, offering context to the region's history and offerings.

Relax and unwind in a comfortable space designed for cozy moments by the fire on a snowy day or for unwinding after a day of fun on Penobscot Bay. Whether you're swimming, sailing, paddleboarding, or enjoying a lobster bake on an island, this retreat offers a perfect escape for peace and relaxation.
