Ted's Castine Coastal Compound was the perfect location for our family reunion. We used the Big House for my mom and the three siblings/spouses and the Carriage House for the adult children (two couples and two singles). This allowed the whole family to gather together in the BH and gave the cousins their own space to hang out together. The Tiny House came in handy for people to work during the day and for folks to gather later at night without disturbing those who went to bed. It's an easy (and pretty) mile walk into the town of Castine, which has two very good restaurants, an excellent bakery/breakfast spot, a seafood lunch shack and a small grocery store. There are plenty of other restaurants and cities/attractions within 30-40 minutes from Castine and Acadia is a little over an hour away. Plenty to do if you want to keep busy and very relaxing if that what you are looking for. Teds' Summah Guide provided ideas for dining and activities and he was always just a quick text or phone call away if we had any questions. Everyone at the reunion was extremely pleased with the location, which was nice since I selected it :). I highly recommend the Coastal Compound for family gatherings (it can sleep many more than we had if you have a larger family).

This was absolute perfection for our family get together: enough space for privacy and enough space for meals, games and just being together. The house was comfy and well-appointed- everything from olive oil to umbrellas. Ted was wonderful about communication and had helpful info for the surrounding area. Castine was lovely and the bioluminescent kayaking was a lifetime highlight for many of us!

We rented the entire compound for a week, grand mom, grand dad, three adult children and their partners/children. First time to Castiine - very nice.
