The Keepers House in Pemaquid Point, perched beside the light tower atop the granite shores of Pemaquid State Park, is a getaway for two with a twist. Commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1827, Pemaquid Light was the first light- house to be featured on a piece of U.S. cur- rency, appearing on the Maine State Quar- ter in 2003. The views from the inside are just as picture-perfect. “You have breath- taking wide open vistas of the ocean from the bedroom, kitchen, and the deep front porch,” says Tanya Blodgett of Newcastle Vacation Rentals. “The kitchen looks out over the lighthouse tower, and there’s con- stant activity on the water–lobster boats, day cruises, and sailing vessels–to watch.” Guests have free access to The Light Tower during open hours and the Fisher- man’s Museum on the first floor. And if all that oceanfront gazing has you itch- ing to get out on the water, Blodgett rec- ommends “taking the Hardy Boat from New Harbor to our nearby islands to watch the Atlantic puffins feed and raise their young.” n Peace and quiet is a practiced art at rolling Meadows yoga and Meditation retreat in Brooks, maine, where guests enter a “social si- lence” for the entirety of the retreat–no talking, reading, or using cell phones. “as they let go of distraction and turn inward, we notice peo- ple becoming more quiet, still, and at peace,” says Surya-Chandra Das, who runs the retreat with his wife Patricia Sunyana Brown. the “light-filled, south-facing 1840 farm- house” accommodates 11 guests of all skill and ability in pastoral single, double, and triple bedrooms. Rates go from $650 to $1,250 per person. Beyond Rolling meadows, the couple leads retreats in india, Costa Rica, italy, guate- mala, and mexico, but maine is the only U.S. outpost. “there’s spirituality here,” they say. Finding Zen Reset inner peace awaits at Rolling meadows yoga Retreat. From $650 to $1,250 per person. aDoBe StoCk
