I spent 3 days and 2 nights and - in hindsight - very much regretted not having listened to Donna’s suggestion to book at least 5 nights! Staying there was so relaxing - Donna and Kent really go out of their way to make you feel at home. I felt no pressure whatsoever to participate in any of the activities...

I spent the last week in December at the Sewall House (6 nights) and it was everything that I can imagine. I needed a much-needed break from NYC for a week and Sewall House exceeded my expectations on all levels. Donna & Kurt are great hosts, the food was amazing, loved the different types of yoga/mediation, and Maine is extremely...

I had a great retreat at Sewall House this winter. It was the perfect place for a quiet solo retreat. I enjoyed all the yoga classes, and the food was excellent. But I also had lots of quiet time to myself for walks, reading, knitting, and napping. Just what I wanted. Donna Kent have a very comfortable and intriguing old...

What you get...An historic home (still in the family) filled with furnishings from Teddy Roosevelt's time there....A quiet, charming, and rural town that is a "world away" even by Maine standards....A fabulous lake cottage framed by hills, with options for kayaking, boating, or walking along the local stream....Easy access to Maine's Baxter State Park (home of 5,267' Mount Katahdin)....Great homemade...

I just spent 7 nights at Sewell House and was thoroughly satisfied with the impulsive decision I made to come from Texas to northern Maine based on an Internet search. From the time Kent picked me up at the airport I felt like I was a guest coming back to visit long lost friends. Kent is a Renaissance
Man, musician,...

Just returned from 6 fabulous nights at Sewall House. I went solo as my husband was on a boys trip in Alaska and I thought this might be the ideal get away and I was not disappointed. I opted not to rent a car and was picked on in Portland by the convivial Elinor who is the unofficial Grandma of...

We only do air pick-up from Bangor except for bookings of 7 or more nights., in which case we will drive to Portland to pick up guests. Bangor is closer, rental cars available at both airports and buses come up to Sherman daily for pick up there as well. Thanks!!!

I loved our stay at the Sewall House! Donna and Kent are wonderful hosts and made us feel right at home. We had incredibly delicious and healthy meals and enjoyed getting to know the other guests. The rooms are very inviting and comfortable with lots of nice touches. We enjoyed quiet time reading on the porch as well as hiking...

Sewall House was a great place to get back to nature and truly relax. It was like visiting your favorite grandmother’s house in the country when you were a kid, without the family drama! Exceptional freshly prepared healthy meals, yoga taught by a world class (and fun!) teacher, side trips to go hiking/mountain climbing, canoeing, and swimming in lakes, streams,...

One of my favorite escapes is a delightful yoga retreat in a lovely home once frequented by Teddy Roosevelt -- Sewall House in the tiny, historic town of Island Falls, Maine. Owned by Donna Davidge who is the great grand-daughter of William Sewall, the nature guide and original owner of the home, Sewall House is operated by Davidge and her...

So I have been telling Donna that I would write a review on here for a VERY long time. But I didn't have time to write a review that would adequately reflect the truly AMAZING experience I had here. I arrived there after 5 weeks of roaming around Europe and the R&R was truly needed. I drove up from Boston...
