Quiet, comfy guest quarters just three miles from Freeport!

The Freeport area has much to offer: shopping, parks, great restaurants, and a vibrant craft beer community. Within 90 minutes of here you will find beaches, parks, scenic towns like Boothbay Harbor and Wiscasset, and of course the city of Portland and the Casco Bay islands. Museums? The Portland Museum of Art is world-renowned. As is the Coastal Maine Botanical Garden in Boothbay. And there is the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath, and the Peary Arctic Museum in Brunswick. Whatever brings you to the area, the Turkey Ridge Guest Quarters is your perfect home base.

The quarters are built in a daylight basement, with tiled floors and lots of pine accents. There is a queen bedroom, a large living area with seating and TV, and a full bath. The quarters are private from the rest of the owner-occupied house, and there is a private entrance. This is the "woodsy" side of a house that sits on 8.5 wooded acres just a few miles from Freeport, Maine. Lots of birds and lots of nature. There's a small outdoor seating area. There is no kitchen, but there is a coffeemaker, microwave, and a small refrigerator.

Free secure high-speed Wifi, smart TV with Hulu and Amazon Prime Video. We have a whole-house standby generator. In addition to the queen bed, we have a fold-out single bed for an older child.

Guests remark on how peaceful and quiet it is here. There are no other guests, and we make very little noise ourselves (no mowing until you are gone for the day!). We travel a lot ourselves, so we know what travelers appreciate.

Access is limited to the guest quarters and adjacent yard. There is no smoking anywhere on the property.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Casco Bay. The apartment offers free WiFi and a patio.
  • The apartment offers a patio, a living room and a Smart TV

A comfy spot in the woods
We enjoyed our stay, close to Freeport, with easy access to major routes. The lodging is well appointed in good taste, but with limited views to the outside. This was not problematic as we stayed only two nights. Useful information for travellers; bring your own body wash/soap, plus diswashing detergent and sponge so that you can wash your mugs and the glasses provided in the bathroom sink. A second, more practically designed sink would be nicer to complement the kitchen facilities. We were overall very happy with our stay. Although it would have been nice to meet our hosts, we appreciated the information they provided in the welcome booklet.

Very woodsy, long crushed rock path to entry
My VRBO reservation went flawlessly, but when it came to receive entry code instructions, apparently it got mixed up in a previous email account that I used years ago when renting my owned property in Florida. I had deleted that email years ago! I received one email on my current account stating "here are the keys to your rental", but when I went to my VRBO app I was unable to access any more information. The agent I spoke to tried to be helpful, but I had deleted the old email, and still was unable to get the information, So I went to the property in the dark rainy night, rang the doorbell and was not able rouse anyone, walked the dark path (it did have motion sensor lights along the way) So I had to make alternate plans for the first night. I returned in the morning and met with the host Wayne who was very welcoming, honored my reservation, gave me the key to the guest quarters and I had a very comfortable stay for the second night. Wayne was very generous and had refunded my fee for the first night. The guest quarters were very nicely laid out and immaculately clean and comfortable.

An Enjoyable Stay
Everything was as advertised. The unit was both comfy and cozy. It was clean and manageable. The one thing to consider, and this is not at all a negative. The location of the guest quarters is around the back of the building at the end of a gravel path. If one as mobility issues - as I do - the walk from the driveway to the entrance of the guest quarters can be a challenge. Please bear in mind that this observation is unique to me. My wife had no difficulty with the walkway. Overall, we highly recommend this property.

Short getaway vacation
There were many choices I could have chosen to stay. The place had great reviews and away from the beaten path but still near town. Wayne sent a message with local suggestions for dining and local attractions that made our stay very enjoyable. The place was as nice as the pictures and the woodworking was excellent. I would not hesitate to book it again.

This property seemed as if we were the first guests ever staying it was so spotless and inviting. Anything we might have needed was available. Beautiful forested and garden surroundings made our stay all the better. We even extended our stay! Hosts Wayne and Kim were attentive if we needed anything but we wondered sometimes if they were around! They made sure we had privacy is my point! We hope this property remains available as we hope to return in the future! Many more times!

Great, quiet spot
Good location about 20-25 minutes from Portland and close to Freeport. Great if you're looking for a quiet stay and make day trips into the city. Clean, and newly renovated with nice amenities. TIP: If you stay during peak travel times, make reservations (or put your name in early + walk around the city) whenever possible at restaurants, or you will wait at least 30-45 minutes.

Wayne was an amazing host! The place was super clean, quiet, and perfect for a couple’s weekend getaway. It had all of the amenities we needed. Wayne was very helpful and quick at responding. He even offered to make us cheeseburgers when we were hungry at 10pm! He is great. The property is beautiful and you can see the stars at night. Parking was convenient as well. Not far from Portland and Freeport. Would definitely recommend! :)
