Growing up in Maine and then moving to North Carolina - to be closer to our children - left us missing the New England coastline terribly, especially in the Fall. We fortuitously found Pamela’s home, connected with her and then took the drive to cooler temps and quieter lifestyles. Pamela’s place was reminiscent of our home in Maine with its wide pine, sometimes creaky floors, the open and high ceilings, the smell of wood in the walls and a quaint woodland setting. It was our “home” away from our rooted home. The place was very clean and is an attachment to a much bigger/several storied home. Though we had neighbors, we never heard or were disturbed by their presence. The few people we saw in the driveway seemed to be on a mission just like us, to explore the Island or were just passing through. There’s a front porch and an outside table with chairs for enjoying the outdoors. Inside, it has a large clean refrigerator, gas stove, coffee pot, toaster and a Ceramic Crock Water Dispenser. (A minor note: no microwave and very few cooking modern pots/pans, these were not deal breakers or inconvenient, just an observation.) The hot water side in the kitchen is pretty Hot so, be careful. The bathroom was very clean and a few towels were available for showering. There is a clean Laundromat right next to McQuade’s Marketplace on Clarke Street. Our overall experience, Very Relaxing and left us wishing terribly that we could stay a lot longer! The Island is filled with a lot of great, genuine people and a whole lot of quiet. So explore and enjoy the off-season quietness and then come home and relax at Pamela’s place. You can thank me later.
