About Me

My photo
Kingfield, Maine, United States
As owner of the Mountain Village Farm B&B and the Farm Cottage Gallery, I am living my lifelong dream.The story of how I got here is available for the asking, but let me simply say now that my path to this place has been a great adventure. My roots plunge deeply into New England coastal culture but shorefront gentrification and congestion combined with my interest in exploring another culture led me here to the mountains of western Maine where life seems less complicated and more connected to nature. My fortune is to greet interesting guests from around the world. Come join us and stay awhile.

The B&B

My B&B offers six comfortable, well appointed guest rooms with private baths. Guests are primarilly from coastal Maine and Boston north but people visit from around the world throughout the year. Lots of skiers during snow months - December to April. Summer and fall bring Europeans touring New England, Canadians traveling across Maine to reach the maritime provinces for their summer holiday and plenty of hikers, bikers, fishers and paddlers from across the US. There is an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities in this region, and I'm able to direct my guests to all trail heads, swimming holes, kayak & canoe rentals, Maine Guides, restaurants, scenic drives, waterfalls, etc. I'll take care of you while you're here.

About Breakfast
Breakfast is served at individual tables in the Trailside Cafe. The Cafe has a window wall that offers panoramic views of Sugarloaf and the surrounding mountains. Fall foliage "leaf peeping" is spectacular from each breakfast table. Guests are presented with their breakfast menus on the day previous to dining and, after indicating what they want, leave their menus in the kitchen anytime before retiring for the night. Farm fresh organic eggs, organic oatmeal with apple, raisins and walnuts and homemade organic sesame granola are offered daily. There is always a special on the menu that might be chocolate walnut stuffed french toast, belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream or blueberry cornmeal pancakes. The coffee is an organic grown in the shade dark roast and decafe is always available along with tea or cocoa. Sides include bacon, sausage, ham, and canadian bacon all from my pasture raised all natural fed pigs - no additives at all. Homefries are cooked up fresh from good old Maine potatoes.

Sugarloaf behind Black Nubble

October 15th snowfall left over six inches of powder at Sugarloaf. Snow grooming equipment was out and several hardy skiers hiked up for the first run of the '09/10 ski season.
