- Market Outlook / Competition
- We are centrally located to serve organizations throughout Maine, and those that are holding events in the greater Augusta, Maine area. We are effectively the only boutique lodging establishment as a quiet rural alternative to the many chain hotels/motels in the greater Augusta, Maine area. The highly desirable meeting, event, and wedding facility is unique with the built-in technology, soaring ceiling, and lots of natural lighting and the property hosts 200+ events every year. We have the only double whirlpool tubs in guest rooms in a very large area.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The property is being conveyed with 31+ acres of buildable land, plus an additional 18+/- acres of adjacent land (with house and storage buildings) is available separately offering ample opportunities for growth, especially in terms of lodging. The two-story barn could easily be converted into an additional wedding and event venue, the present Gathering Place could also be expanded into a larger facility, and endless opportunities to attract destination conferences and weddings when more lodging is added, and there is ample room to do so.
