  Algo mais...

  Our land is located in Midcoast, Maine less than a mile from the Damariscotta Lake and downtown Newcastle/Damariscotta. From our door you can walk for hours in the woods on trails that span our and the neighbors’ land (and probably not see a soul), you can walk to town for a movie, book, or food.
  
  Very close by you can swim in the lake and ocean and hike in many beautiful spots. We're located a mile from Damariscotta Lake, a mile from the ocean, 1 hour from Portland, and 3 hours from Boston. The area has an abundance of local hiking and beaches and Downtown Damariscotta, just a mile away, has shops, services, cafes, a movie theater, restaurants, and lots of charm.
  
  We can accommodate any kind of diet but we do eat local organic meat and dairy products so they will be around.
