Comfortable & Charming 2-bedroom barn in peaceful Brooksville

Looking for a cozy stay when you come to the Blue Hill Peninsula to see foliage? Peak season is projected for the first two weeks of October. Equipped with efficient radiators, your fully-heated getaway awaits in Brooksville at this quaint, post-and-beam barn. There are two bedrooms - one king and one queen bed with memory foam mattresses, bamboo sheets, comforters, wool blankets, and down pillows. The two bathrooms are each equipped with dual rain-head / handheld shower fixtures and a bidet. The downstairs bathroom also has dual sinks.

Upstairs, this peaceful retreat offers a fully equipped, large gourmet kitchen, dining room & living room space, and a second full bathroom, all overlooking a meadow & water views with an additional memory foam queen, Murphy bed. The deck & building face west so prepare yourself for beautiful sunsets!

The barn is located on the same 13-acre property as the "Massachusetts House", one of the oldest homes in Brooksville. Our property has a large meadow leading to private frontage in Lord's Cove on the Bagaduce River. The barn has an elevated deck and outdoor table overlooking the whole property.

Nearby activities include hiking, kayaking, and biking in this pastoral area. We encourage you to check out the various sanctuaries on the peninsula and the Dead River Trailhead in Orland is worth the trip.

If you seek to enjoy the local food scene, Tinderhearth, one of the New York Times' "restaurants they are most excited about" in 2024 is approximately 1/2 a mile away. Bagaduce Lunch, a local standard, is close and excellent for local seafood. Northern Bay Market in Penobscot offers a great service - they steam lobsters for you to take home. The Blue Hill Co-op is great for local products.

If you must work, we have blazing fast WIFI, powered by fiber-optics to the property.

Experience the magic of Brooksville at our charming barn.

Fantastic well appointed barn in peaceful Brooksville. Hosts were communicative and helpful and the place is exactly as described. Brooksville is a good jumping off point to explore Blue Hill and Deer Island, though it is a decent drive on small winding country roads to explore the area so be aware of that when booking. Otherwise, everything was fantastic!

Our trip to Maine was amazing. Our stay here in this barn everything we hoped. They had anything you would need available if you forgot something. Did not need or want for anything. Landlords were full of information at check in and very courteous. Told us about all the good places to eat and shop. Would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Maine.

wonderful stay

Inside and outside of property was outstanding. I enjoyed my morning coffee on a beautiful sunny deck watching my son and his dog walking across the very large field and down to the water. The beds were really comfortable. The bathrooms, one on each level, were all one could want. Our hosts were very pleasant and helpful. We were absolutely pleased with this private accommodation

Lovely accomodation - great central location

Emily and her family have created a wonderful space in the converted barn next to her parent's house. The accomodation is very clean and comfortable with great appliances and a kitchen that has been outfitted by someone who enjoys cooking. There are many thoughtful extras including great coffee and many condiments. The furnishings are very new and designed for functionality and comfort as well as looks.The location is quiet and peaceful and an easy drive to Blue Hill, Deer Isle and Castine. The property has frontage on the tidal Bagaduce River, which is a nice walk through a hayfield filled with wild flowers. The sunsets from the balcony are lovely.

Vacation in Maine

We had a relaxing stay, the barn was just perfect. Dave and Meg greated us when we arrived and gave us the tour, and some helpful tips. There was a patch of rhubarb which Meg said help yourselves, which I did and made a strawberry rhubarb pie in the wonderful kitchen. The kitchen had all that we needed, a great chef's kitchen. And all 4 of us loved the super comfy mattresses. And I have to say a few of us loved having the bidet toilets, a plus. It was a super beautiful property, and a very friendly helpful host & hostess. We felt right at home!

Lovely remote getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Brooksville. The property is beautiful and quiet, but close to local hikes. The beds were super comfortable and we loved the chefs kitchen, which is actually appointed so you can make meals easily. The property was very clean and the WiFi fast (we had to work remotely one day). Host was easy to communicate with and flexible when we needed to alter checkout. We will definitely be back when it is warmer, the path to the water would be wonderful then
