Summer picnics 🧺
It’s a quintessential element of summer. From meadows to mountains to beaches and everywhere in between picnics in the summer are a bucket list item. Dining alfresco is one of the many enjoyable moments of summer in Maine. This is why I provide guests with a packable cooler from and a list of options of where to go for a memorable picnic. Featured here is the quiet local beach just moments from the cottage perfect for when you don’t want to fight the summer crowds of MDI.

My favorite place for a picnic was at Jordan Pond House but they no longer allow people to do that so my new favorite spot is now at Schoodic Point.

Do you enjoy picnics? Where do you like to go?

The colors of the season-💙💚
It’s getting closer and closer to that time when the surrounding landscape bursts into deep greens. The blues have already arrived with bluebird skies which make the ocean water even more blue.
The main bedroom at the cottage has the best views. It takes in not only the large lawn but also the beautiful views of the water and mountains in the distance. During the summer sleep with the windows open to let that salty sea air mixed with sweet pine float in. I promise you will love it! Or am I the only one?

Celebrate being together 🎉

Days filled with GREEN are on the horizon 🍀🌳🌲

Birds are arriving, the first buds are popping and the air is starting to shift. We are eager to see it all! I’m starting to think about planting in the garden. Any suggestions? We are heading up soon so be sure to follow along as we tackle more projects and show off our wonderful area of Maine. “It’s the way life should be”

Ready to change your perspective?
Winter is a world of black and white but with it we gain clear perspective and a peace as our senses rest. Then when Spring bursts forth we are dazzled by the contrast and our senses come alive.

Freshness 🌲

It’s kind of hard to describe a smell but imagine salty air mixed with sweet pine with light notes of flowers drifting through. It’s the smell of Downeast. The smell is so captivating and unique that many try to capture it. We can’t recommend enough opening the windows wide to let it all in. It’s good for your soul!

The time when lobster boils line the shore and laughter echoes across the water. Summer is slowly slipping away but for now it’s just the perfect time.

EXPLORATION IDEA: ☕️🥾
Have you heard of ? The original location is in a tiny shop on Deer Isle. This tiny shop delivers big on their coffee. They custom roast their batches right there and you taste the difference! For anyone who knows about this shop supplies the coffee for Erin’s guests. One of the best features this shop provides is they ship! (I have been known to order from them when I’m missing Maine…which is all the time!) So I suggest stopping in and picking up a cup then heading over to Sylvester’s Cove or Edgar Tennis Preserve on Deer Isle. Can’t stop in? Just head to their website and ship a taste of Maine to you!

If you have tried their coffee or stopped on Deer Isle before tell us below! 👇🏻

EXPLORATION IDEA: Stonington Harbor 🌊🛟🦞🏘️
This absolutely lovely seaside village is just oozing in charm and beauty. As you can see we hit it on a rainy and foggy day but it did not stop us. The harbor is teeming with lobster boats and other vessels. We would have loved to be eating ice cream cones on a bench along the harbor on a sunny day. We wandered the town and ducked in and out of shops and just admired the lovely cottages dotting the hillside. Everywhere we went we heard and saw neighbors greeting each other, fishermen chatting about their catches of the day and residents going about their daily rituals. The beauty of this place is just amazing. There is a beach area right on the outskirts of town excellent for exploring. You can even see another lighthouse from the shore.
I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary. Stonington is about an hour drive away from the cottage and the drive winds you through other towns such as Blue Hill and Deer Isle.
