Rockport Eco Homestead Come unplug at the Main House of Hill Spring Homestead. Central location only 10 minutes from Camden, 8 minutes from Rockport and Rockland. Full private use of the hand crafted main house will be yours. Three bedrooms and full bath with brand new clawfoot tub upstairs, plus additional sleeping area (office with queen sofa bed) and another full bath with laundry and farmer's sink on the first floor provide accommodations for the whole family, or a group of friends. Organic fruit trees, vegetable gardens, trees, and flowers will greet you out every window. Take in the bird songs while you enjoy morning coffee or evening drinks on the wrap around deck. Deck table seats 8. Build a bonfire and enjoy the stars at the large fire pit. Breathe easily knowing the home and organic linens are cleaned with plastic free all natural products, and electricity comes from the solar grid. Meditate, journal, paint, or read in the sun filled cupola. If you have the privilege of enjoying a magical, misty, cool Maine summer day here light a fire in the woodstove and cozy up with a book, or do a puzzle, in the open concept downstairs. If you're ready for adventure there are mountains, ocean, lakes, rivers, shopping, galleries, restaurants, and exceptional locally produced food all within a 10-20 minute drive. Take a day trip to Acadia National Park, Portland, or countless beautiful seaside towns along the Mid Coast. Let us know if you'd like to use our 2 double kayaks during your stay. Our family (including sweet natured Golden mix and 2 kitties) shares the property in adjacent guest house. We are happy to provide recommendations and suggestions so you can enjoy Mid Coast like a local, and will be available should you need us, but we are often away from home at work so you will have plenty of privacy. Welcome to a true get away!
