Welcome to the Maine Ski House. This house was originally built to be a rental home, with every nook and cranny designed to accommodate guests. The house is outfitted with all of the supplies and conveniences you can imagine. Bring your clothes, your food, your skis, and toiletries- we’ve got the rest! Whether you are drawn to the area to ski Sunday River (only 2 miles away) in the winter or planning a river or hiking trip in the summer: this is the house for you. You will be able to enjoy epic adventures during the day at nearby attractions including Bethel Village, The Appalachian Trail, Step Falls, The Androscoggin River, Mt Abram, Sunday River, Bethel Inn Golf Course and so much more. At the end of the day, return home for a soak in the hot tub, play games or build a puzzle from the well-stocked game closet or enjoy the “pub” while you watch a game on the 55” Smart T.V. For the kids, there are games, toys, and Wii & Xbox360 areas with dedicated 32'' HD LED TVs. Total of 9 HD LED TVs: 4 receiving high definition and 3 receiving standard definition. This chalet-style mountain house features three levels of finished living space. With soaring ceilings, a two-story river-rock mantel, and a wall of windows offering views across the valley, you won’t find a more authentic ski house than this. On the main level, there is extended mudroom storage with cubbies, benches, and hooks designed for each guest to have their own space to store gear. There is a powder room with a beautiful glass sink, tile floor, and custom cabinetry. The great room and kitchen are expansive with an open floor plan intended to allow everyone to convene in one place. The dining table seats 14 people and there are stools arranged at the overhanging kitchen bar so that everyone can dine at one time. The living room is arranged with furniture surrounding the gas fireplace which provides both ambiance and heat. Walkout onto the sprawling deck where you can grill, have a seat in an Adirondack chair, or soak in the hot tub. Everything about the house is high-quality. From the granite countertops to the custom kitchen cabinets, no expense was spared in constructing this house and you will appreciate the condition of the house once you are here. The lower level features the game room, the kid’s area, and the pub. There is a well-stocked game room full of puzzles and board games for adults as well as little ones. A 55” Smart T.V. and an extensive DVD collection make movie night extra fun! The pub is a fun place to unwind; with cocktail glasses, drink mixers, a Jimmy Buffet Margarita Blender, and surround sound speakers- this where the adults will enjoy unwinding for sure! There is a bathroom, utility room, laundry area, and walk-out patio access on this level as well. 3 Treasure Hunts: - Original Hunt* which has 20+ questions about things in the house. - Couch Potato Hunt* which allows you to sit and use your phone for answers. - Our Find Barker the Bear Sticker Hunt was created for younger kids who cannot read yet. *These hunts lead to a treasure chest with goodies or treats inside...

It is also a great place for an afternoon nap with two windows that have screens that let in a breeze. We hope our 'littlest' guests, and those with huge imaginations, will love the idea of a Hobbit Hole and have hours of imaginative playtime in it. ***THE HOBBIT HOLE WILL BE CLOSED FOR THE WINTER SEASON FROM NOVEMBER UNTIL MID-MAY AS IT IS NOT HEATED OR INSULATED *** Bedrooms: All beds, box springs, and pillows have bed bug certified encasements. Beds are custom made from logs by local wood craftsman Steve Stone and are very comfortable. There are extra linens, pillows, and blankets if needed during your stay. All bedrooms have ample storage, individual closets, and plenty of hangers. For rooms shared by several people, we provide hooks or storage bins for individual items to be kept separate and organized. There is a Pack 'n Play if needed one-bed rail guard. Bathrooms: All bathrooms have beautiful glass bowl sinks. All towels (white) are provided, as well as labeled clips so each person can keep track of their own towel. This hopefully decreases the amount of laundry and assures people they are using their own towel. Shampoo, conditioner, and soaps are stocked for your convenience (Eco Amenities). There is also a hairdryer in every bathroom that has a shower. We hope you stay here soon!
