Rustic Retreat

Description

🌲 Welcome to a rustic retreat tucked into the quiet woods along Maine’s coast—just 5 minutes from local lake access, the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, and Back River. Plus, it’s only 10 minutes to downtown Boothbay Harbor.

Come for the peaceful setting, stay for the open skies, forest walks, and cozy campfires. You’ll find a mix of open fields and shaded forest sites, ideal for tents, vans, or small RVs. Whether you’re looking for a communal feel or a more tucked-away spot, there’s plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the land.

✨ Best for guests who enjoy calm mornings, mellow campfires, and quiet nights under the stars—thanks for helping keep this place peaceful for all.

📶You’ll also enjoy reliable cell service, so you can unplug—or check back in—on your own terms.

🌿 A Note on Accessibility and Stewardship:

I truly believe everyone deserves a peaceful chance to unplug and reconnect with the natural world. If cost is a barrier for you, please feel free to reach out—I’m open to discussing alternatives that could make a stay here possible.

All funds from Hipcamp bookings go directly back into the land—supporting projects to restore native habitat, build regenerative systems, and nurture this place for future visitors (human and wild alike). By staying here, you’re helping make that vision grow. 🌱

🚐 Larger Vehicles/RVs:

The driveway gate is approximately 12.3 feet wide, which may be too narrow for some wider rigs. Please double-check your vehicle size before booking.

🌿 Thinking of a longer stay?

If you’re planning to stay 3 nights or more, feel free to message me before booking—I may be able to offer a special discount (excluding holiday weekends). Longer stays or simple work-trade options are sometimes available too. Just ask!
