As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

It’s winter in Maine and while some days have been warmer than others, we’re definitely not seeing spring any time soon. We could all use some warm rays, but while we’ve got it let’s enjoy the snow and cold! Part of doing that is getting outside to experience it. Hiking and walking are great, but those who ski know that the thrill of going downhill is pretty great. If you love that and have a something special to celebrate you might want to consider a unique rental experience you’ll never forget! Or, do it for no good reason at all!

Make your way to Rumford along the backroads of Maine and you'll come to one of our favorite little ski areas in New England! The journey to the slopes is beautiful, but once you arrive things get even better.
