About
This historic property, established in 1795, offers a serene overnight stop in a peaceful small town setting just minutes from I-95 and convenient to Bangor, Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Park. The large, newly paved parking lot behind the church features two clearly marked spaces with pleasant views—one overlooking a meadow and fields, the other near the garden—providing privacy and scenic surroundings for rest and relaxation. Guests consistently praise the level, spacious parking and the quiet, safe atmosphere that makes for restful nights. Electric and water hookups are available upon request, and amenities include WiFi availability by request and convenient access to a nearby farmer's market, local pizza restaurant, and breakfast café within walking distance. The location serves as an ideal base camp for exploring the surrounding region. The welcoming congregation and community atmosphere enhance many stays, with guests noting warm invitations to services, community breakfasts, and gatherings. Those who participate often describe meaningful connections with friendly, hospitable church members. A donation box and QR code at the back of the building provide convenient ways to support the property. The property's convenient location near I-95, combined with its calm, well-lit, secure parking area and access to local amenities and attractions, makes it a popular stopping point for travelers heading to or from Maine's coastal destinations and national parks.

Hookup Notes
Limited hookups are available, please let us know if you'd like to use them, as they are first come first serve. If you use the electricity, please take that into account when making your donations - electric rates in Maine are kind of high, but we're happy to offer it as long as people are respectful of its use.
