Thank you for everything. Your preparations for the 35th wedding renewal ceremony was definitely above and beyond what we expected. You did a beautiful job.
Great time in Maine for our family reunion.

It was all the small details that made our stay so enjoyable... the friendly, easy going greeting by Marc when we first found the place online and made a reservation, the warm welcome by Annette as we drove our tired family to rest after a very long journey late Sunday evening ( a welcome complete with juice and everything she could find for our hungry children), the treasure trove of childhood goodies found in every nook and cranny throughout the week, the games and "social hour", the tent setup for relaxing after a day biking and swimming, the friendly conversation throughout the week, and the flexibility in letting us stay on an extra day after arriving a day late.
Thanks to your kind gestures and well run operation, we enjoyed yet another incredible trip in this mazing part of Maine. Hope to return soon.

We had an awesome time in Maine. Today we went to Thunder Hole. It was amazing. We had smores last night. A few days ago, we went to an Oceanarium. It had starfish, sea urchins, and other cool creatures you could hold. WE also went hiking. We drove up Cadillac Mountain and walked around at the top. It was an amazing view. We went swimming at Sand Beach and made about a 2 foot high tower with all sea weed and a bit of sand. As soon as we stopped working on it, the waves destroyed it. We got to wak to an island. When the tide was low, there is a sand bar that you can walk across on. When the tide was high, you can't walk on the sand bar any more. At the Oceanarium, we saw a female lobster with eggs. It was cool. We went to the whale museum today. We saw whale bones. There were 2 stuffed seals. There were also big barnicles that grew on a whales back. There was also dead plankton and another sea creature that whales eat.
Everything was very nice in Maine. The cottage we stayed in was very warm and cozy. We saw some cool mushrooms around our cottage in the woods. There were lots of cool games and books in the Hospitality Suite. I liked walking to the bakery in the morning to get breakfast. I hope we can come back to Maine again.

We had a fantastic time in the Bluehouse. It was very relaxing and quaint. We loved walking into town every night as well as sitting by the pond at Anna's. We also swam in Echo Lake everday which was refreshing. Acadia National Park was beautiful and had a lot of good hikes to offer. We hiked around Jordan Pond, and up the South Bubble which was our favorite, and ate popovers at the tea house after, which were delicious! We also did the Wonderland Trail which is right by the Sea, and the Guggenheim Summit which has awesome views. We also went into Bar Harbor to eat lobster and shop. We loved staying here, and enjoyed all the activities.

By providing us well with creature comforts and cheery decorating, you have changed a basic summer cottage into a tranquil retreat -a step back to a more tranquil time and era.
Thanks for a very pleasant week at Anna's Quietside Cottages.
