Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Our Eastport, Maine home offers easy access to Canada and perfect location for exploring the beauty of Maine. With 5 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, our large home is great for 10+ guests. No more than 3 blocks from the downtown main street, and across the street from the beach, this property is ideally located.

Eastport is known for beautiful spring flowers (lupine is spectacular in May/June), festivals all summer (4th of July and Pirates' Festival in August are fabulous), extraordinary leaf viewing opportunities in the fall, and unparalleled snowy tranquility each winter.

Bonus: Stay on our 5-acre private island in the Milbridge region!
