I miss that old huge tree!

Holiday Greetings and best wishes for the New Year to all of our FB friends. This accompanying summer photo was taken by one of our long-time tenants. Wow! You can find our information on our web page at www.virtue.to/cottages.

Happy holidays!

Some atypical views of the scenery from our little corner of paradise!

Haven’t really gotten around to doing anything for next season yet. Be watching this space in late February or early March for summer 2025 details.

Thank you for the pictures Stephanie Yuskis!

It is glorious on a clear moonless night!

The night sky is a wonderful thing to get lost in, and it’s a terrible thing to lose. Here's everything you need to know about stargazing in Maine.

A quick note to all our followers:
Reservations for Summer 2025 will open up in late February or early March.

Watch this space for an announcement in Early February.

We had close to a 90% occupancy for summer of 2024, we are hoping for a sell out in 2025! Early inquiries are trending higher than last year, with many people asking about 2 or 3 buildings the same week.

If you are hoping to rent a couple buildings, make sure your have your group organized and know what week/s you want!

Thank you for supporting us!

A brief visit today since I’m in town for my 40th high school reunion.

A glorious day on the coast of Maine.

I have a donut from Frank’s bakery in Bangor, I have a cup of coffee from rooster brother in Orino, and then apple from the tree between the blue building and the red building.

If you can’t find me later this week, check to see if I’ve managed to leave .

Northern Lights all over tonight! This is from Acadia. KV saw them from Rhode Island; CV could not see them near Worcester MA because of cloud cover!

How do you like your lobster roll?

The seafood slingers, chefs, glossy food-mag writers, and entrepreneurs who helped turn the unassuming lobster roll into a national phenomenon.

With the exception of our full season renter who is with us until the End of September, that's a wrap!

Thank you to everyone who rented this year! Out of 11 weeks for each building from June 23 thru September 8 (33 total) We had 4 open weeks! 88% Occupancy! Our full season renter was there for all of May, June and September too!

A special thanks to Rob F our all purpose property manager. We couldn't do it without him! Same with Amanda's cleaning crew!

I have had folks already try to book weeks for next summer, but we will stick with how we usually do it.
**Prior renters will be able to make reservations in Early February; I will email you when I am ready to roll.
**New renters will be able to make reservations in Early March-- Watch this space for the 'open for reservations' announcement!

(May, June and September rentals will be possible too...reach out to work it out with us if you want to be there 'off peak' season!)

Dee, Cynthia and Karen

We want to see Maine through your lens!

Have you stopped here?

Over the years, the roadside attraction has grown into a place to learn about blueberry-farming heritage.

Good morning all!

For those of you who have rented our cottages before, are you aware of any places locally that rent kayaks? A new tenant has asked us about that and we do not know the answer!

A new place to check out!

HULLS COVE — A small street sign on the outgoing lane of State Highway 3 at the top of the hill past the Hulls Cove Beach is all that indicates
