A Classic Maine New Englander Near Colby College

Welcome to our 1940s New Englander in Oakland, Maine—a comfortable, character-filled home in the heart of Central Maine and just a short drive from Colby College.

This is a true New England home: established, welcoming, and full of the charm and quirks that come with a house that has been part of the Maine landscape for generations. We’ve thoughtfully updated the home for today’s guests while preserving the relaxed, lived-in character that makes it feel distinctly Maine.

Inside, you’ll find plenty of room to settle in and make yourself at home. The spacious living room is an easy gathering place after a day exploring, visiting family, or cheering from the sidelines at Colby. The kitchen is stocked with the everyday cookware, dishes, and essentials for preparing meals at home, whether you’re making a quick breakfast or sitting down for dinner together.

Upstairs, comfortable bedrooms provide space to recharge at the end of the day. Throughout the home, high-speed internet makes it easy to stay connected.

Need to work while you’re here?

Our dedicated home office sits behind French doors, giving you a separate space for virtual meetings, emails, or a few uninterrupted hours of work. Close the doors, open the laptop, and skip the virtual background.

Outside, the backyard offers room to slow down and enjoy Maine at a quieter pace—bring your coffee outside in the morning, enjoy a meal in the fresh air, or settle in with a book.

A Great Home Base for Central Maine

The house is especially well suited for Colby families, alumni, visiting professionals, and travelers who want a residential home base rather than a hotel stay. From here, explore the Belgrade Lakes region, nearby towns, Maine’s outdoor recreation, and everything Central Maine has to offer.

Coming to watch a game, visit your Colby student, spend time with family, or simply escape to Maine for a few days? Settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy life in a classic New England home.

Please note: This is a genuine 1940s home, not a newly constructed or hotel-style property. Guests who love older homes will find plenty of character here, including the natural variations and quirks that come with an established New England house. We’ve chosen to preserve that character while providing the comforts that make it easy to enjoy your stay.

We’d love to welcome you to Oakland.
