Bates parent visiting student, this is a perfect place to stay

Can’t say enough good things about this place. The property is gorgeous, the animals are fun, the host is friendly and welcoming, the apartment has so many nice touches to make your stay comfortable. This is my favorite place to stay when visiting my kiddo. I wish I could come visit more often.

Visiting our Son in Auburn.

We stayed at Teresa and Ken's beautiful studio apartment for 9 nights. We had come over to America from England, for the first time, to visit our Son who has a soccer scholarship at Central Maine Community College in Auburn. This was the most amazing 9 days in New Gloucester at Taildragger Stables. Teresa had thought of everything from the treats on arrival to the property, to everything you could possibly need in the home including hair dryer, hair straighteners, spare toothbrushes, toiletries, coffee machine etc. This was complete 'home from home'. The apartment was very warm, comfortable and welcoming and they had done everything possible to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. I would absolutely recommend this property, and really hope we can return one day. Our Son particularly loved their cat that came in for attention, and we enjoyed pottering around the stables looking at the horses, goats and pony. This was a great area for relaxing and also exploring - Boston, Freeport, Portland, Kennebunkport, Camden, Salem - the list is endless! I am missing the views we woke up to each morning now we are home! Thanks for the most amazing stay!

Very pleasant

The owners were very friendly and nice. We enjoyed the privacy and very much enjoyed all their animals. Because of our age walking down the hill to the door was a little challenging in the dark but we should have brought a flashlight. The light on my phone wasn’t enough. Being a country girl myself I felt at home.

Better than the pictures

Great stay. Hit the mark on the things that matter. Comfortable pillows, comfortable bed and clean. The location wasn't too far from the airport as we were looking for a quiet, peaceful location. We've stayed at other rentals in the city and there was too much neighbor noise. This was so perfect for our style, quiet. Perfect for a couple or a parent(s) and child. Although quiet and remote there are plenty of places 10-15 minutes away to grab food if desired. Thank you!! The stay was everything we hoped for. God bless!!

This is a beautiful horse farm in a rural area of Maine. The hosts were lovely, the horses gorgeous, and the rental apartment comfortable. I hope this will be available when I return to Maine.

The property is on a farm with very friendly outdoor cats, and a lovely views of the fields. There's no road noise, and its great for walks outside. It was pretty easy to come and go, and the kitchen meant we could cook dinner without having to spend on takeout (always a bonus!) Overall Absolutely lovely!

Great place to stay for animal lovers

Apartment is on a beautiful farm setting. Teresa is very welcoming as are all the animals (horses, dogs, cats… and I think I heard goats!) Studio is well laid out, plenty of amenities, one queen bed, one twin bed, and a couch that looks like it can also convert into a bed. I slept in the queen bed and it was very comfortable. My daughter came to visit me (Bates student) and she ended up napping in the twin (so I’m assuming it was pretty comfortable too). Air conditioning worked great and was much appreciated. This studio apartment is in close proximity to Bates College and makes for a great place to stay when visiting. I had such a relaxing stay!
