Campground Life
Peace in a package
According to the calendar, we’re already working our way toward Spring…but luckily it doesn’t feel that way yet! It’s bone chilling cold outside, the goats and birds are puffed out like silly souffles on stick legs and the sea smoke is rising from the Bay. It’s a brilliant time of year for those of us…

It’s hard to believe that only seven days sit between us and the turn of the year. The long nights and lingering meals allow our minds to wander and reflect on the wealth we’re fortunate enough to enjoy.

Tidepools, gardens, goats and honeybees…the four words we’ve decided encapsulate our image of Searsport Shores. But in February there should be a 5th word…art.

Read MoreHappy Valentine’s Day
I love Maine in February…it’s one of my very favorite months because the preparations and festivities of Christmas are behind us and there’s still a month of daydreaming, planning and fiber play in front of us. And don’t you think that once you’ve gotten past the anxiety of youth, Valentine’s day is a brilliant excuse…
Read MoreJanuary is for Planning
December always seems to be a blur because of holiday decorations, parties and the inevitable bumpy shifting of gears from closing the campground to being closed. By the second week of January we’re rested, filled with happy memories and fueled to begin planning for the summer season to come…impatiently caught between enjoying our icy imprisonment (the road…
