Property HSD8435, Holiday Guest House for rental in Schoodic Peninsula, Maine, USA

Except for all the modern conveniences it feels like my Great-Grandmothers house once felt. Even though we love staying here ourselves it's easier to let our guests comments speak for it.


It has become such a popular vacation rental that most of our guests are return guests and quite a few of those return every year.

The cape cod portion of the home is the oldest section. This style with its sturdy post and beam construction was very popular with the early settlers. During a more recent renovation just decade ago in which I added the dormer windows I found that the roof is actually put together with wooden pegs instead of nails. I also found fragments of newspapers used for insulation prior to the civil war. One piece had an ad for rewards for escaped runaway slaves. A date on another of the fragments was Thursday, March 21, 1839. The year 1765 is carved into one of the timbers under the living room walls.

The Settlers House has been added too and renovated probably dozens of times but its simple beauty, charm and colonial aura remains and are inescapable.
