Beautiful, comfortable, perfect getaway
This cabin is so cozy, comfy, and totally relaxing and private. It was a chilly night and Dick, the property owner, had fired up the wood stove for us so it was perfectly warm when we arrived. Beds were very comfortable, we slept so well, and the cabin has everything you could need. The kitchen was great, the whole place is very charming. We loved cozying up you watching old video tapes from the 90s in the living room upstairs! My husband and I especially enjoyed the peaceful and expansive view of the beautiful meadow from the windows, and the view of the water just a few steps from the door. We went to Blue Hill for dinner per a recommendation from our hosts which was lovely. All around a wonderful stay!

They went the extra mile
We had a lovely stay on this unusual property. The house was clean, and had everything we needed including llamas across the street.. Our hosts were very gracious , so gracious that they helped us retrieve our computer which we had mistakenly left behind on our way out. If you don't mind a little extra driving to get home, this is the place.

uncomfortable furnishing and flies
The property was well staged and the host were polite and friendly; however the chairs and beds were horrific. They were uncomfortable. The space was filled each morning with a new batch of flies and wasps. The windows were difficult to open; the cranks were broken. During the storm the windows leaked.

Unfortunately, some guests are not suited for the country in a rustic barn. Our farm is in meadow which is encouraging a return of plants, wildlife and all life. After many years of being mowed, we witnessed a return of the endangered Bobilink. The fields are full of fireflies and the pond with frogs. This is a first regarding our wonderful bedding., Beauty Rest and Cuddle Down are both high end products. Our furniture is very comfortable and we have many kinds of chairs and couches. We have flies and wasps in the fall inside the farmhouse also, very typical for the coast. I certainly hope this person finds a more suitable place in the future. Please read other reviews and thank you.

John Krugman seemed to have difficulty. The farm is easy to find on GPS and unfortunately they had trouble navigating. The night sky is beautiful here because we have no streetlights or site overnighting. Many guests seek us out for this reason. Check in is at 4 pm which allows ample time for guests to settle in.

late summer stay
Had a great time at the barn @ Tapley Farms. Carol was an exceptional host, and the barn was exactly as advertised. It more than met the needs of me, my wife, and mother-in-law for a week. Very peaceful location. Loved it, and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for quiet, coastal retreat in the most beautiful part of Maine.

Lovely Location and Property
My wife and I plus our 2 teenage daughters stayed at the barn/cabin at Tapley Farms. The hosts were lovely helpful and friendly people. Their property is a quiet and picturesque area of Brooksville ME. An original barn/studio was nicely renovated to a comfortable and rustic cabin and nicely furnished, Would return for sure!

We Love Tapley Farm!!!
Our One Week in Maine! I can still hear the sounds of Spring peepers, the birds, the waves, soft sounds of distant horns on the water, the breeze in the trees and a cozy night of rain. We saw the most beautiful pink sunset and the sky full of stars in the field. Tapley Farm is a true example of the beauty of Maine country life. The coastal farm has an incredible history and everything is lovely about the location, the barn house, the animals, and beach. The girls were delighted when they discovered on the first morning that there were alpacas looking at them in the field. The water so close down the dirt rode was most surprising. Life is simple here- quiet and no fuss, and the beds are very comfortable! I will miss the fantastic fresh sea air coming through the screen windows. After breakfast (by the warmth of the gas fireplace) we went down to the beach then back for lunch. We spent most of the afternoons reading, painting with watercolors, writing, arranging shells on surfaces all over the porch. The girls loved the tree-swing. We went swimming in a pond nearby 2 times. For one breakfast we bought cinnamon twists and chocolate croissants from the Tinder Hearth bakery nearby. That was good with bacon and coffee! In the evening we mostly cooked (but great restaurants and CoOp in Blue Hill) then took another trip to the water. Made a fire in the wood stove upstairs most evenings. We played games and watched VHS's, had some wine. Brought me back to my family vacations in Northern WI in my youth. All these little things that I did and my parents did before came back naturally here with my own family and we were so content. The towns and islands and scenic drives were just what I have always imagined Maine would be like only more so- more dramatic, more rugged, more stunning. The farm is so close to the places in which stories that we know well were inspired by and close to where the authors lived and are buried- Robert McClosky's Buck's Harbor (a Condon's Garage and Buck's Harbor Market were there), EB White (Allen Cove, Brooklin)....Burt Dow (The REAL Deep Water Man buried on Deer Isle) etc. The owners, Carol and Dick, were so kind, helpful and generous. We didn't want to leave! One of the best weeks of vacation we have ever had together. We hope to come back one day. Keep doing what you are doing Tapley Farm. It is so very important!

Rustic cabin on farm
As the photos showed -- fields & woods but a walk to the water. Suited our kind of simple living with kitchen amenities. The Brooksville area has lovely farming scenes & small towns. Lots of sanctuary-hiking trails which we took & then swam in Walker Pond. Owners friendly and let us use the fire pit for roasting marshmallows. Provided a bike for riding. We came for the quiet -- found the next door neighbors with some kind of loud music/band practice a bit unsettling for two nights. Suzanne Gay 8/11-18/2018

The Penobscot peninsula is the best of Maine. Nice and quiet on the property, with good beaches clo
We will come back to this part of Maine…and hopefully stay longer. The property is as described, with the Bay just a hundred or so yards away, and fields of hay all around. Lots of birds for folks who enjoy birdwatching and finding all those migrants who pass by the rest of the US headed north in Spring. The cabin is rustic, a bit more than we had anticipated, and according to its history as noted on literature at the site, was at one time an art studio over a storage area that was once reserved for farm equipment, etc. The beds were quite comfortable and living room area spacious with a good view of the fields. We made a few recommendations to the owners for a few ideas that could improve upon the ambience and also what were really some things any renter would expect, or possibly anticipate when reserving the cabin. They were quite agreeable with our suggestions, and were glad we made them…a very nice couple with long ties to the land.

We enjoyed our stay at Tapley Farm. Dick and Carol were very good hosts and took care of us.
The farm was very nice. Centrally located to visit the area. Lots of serenity relaxing on the back porch. Interesting visits to Arcadia,Castine and Stonington.
