Summary
Enjoy a side of Maine that few know. Off the well-beaten tourist track a surprise awaits you nestled in the foothills of the picturesque Longfellow Mountains. In the lake district of western Maine, discover a jewel-like encapsulation of what rural living was like in days gone by, in a place the eighth generation of your hosts' family still calls home.
Admire the stone walls lining miles of discontinued roads that provide great walking and biking. Explore cellar holes and abandoned orchards of bygone farms. Have the fun of gathering your own blueberries from our high-bush field. Pick strawberries or apples at nearby farms. Milk a cow at a neighbor's dairy farm. Read epitaphs on old stones in a graveyard behind the still active 200 year old Fayette Baptist church located at the end of our main pasture.
Marvel at the sunrise's colorful reflections off the snow-capped Presidential range, 60 miles away. Live out the old ways at the famous Norlands Living History Museum, whose lofty glistening church spire beckons above a distant tree line, ten miles away. Or simply talk to the animals who make their home here, (sheep, horse, and donkey.).
