The location
Penobscot, Maine, is a super special spot. Known for it’s rugged coastline, natural beauty, and quiet atmosphere. This is the perfect spot to unwind, relax, and appreciate the quiet.
We will be sharing a local rental, which is composed of three buildings that provide ample space and comfort inside and out. This Sea River Retreat boasts 10+ acres and 600 ft of waterfront. It's serene waters, reversing falls, woodlands and fields, attracts a plethora of wildlife, and is the ideal location to relax and inspire.
This is your opportunity to slow down, tune out the hustle and bustle of life, and tune IN to you. Your thoughts, your desires, and your dreams. Sometimes stepping back is the best way to step forward.
