Carriage House Activities

MOTEL, COTTAGES & SUITES

ACTIVITIES

here are many activities, attractions and things to do on your visit at

the Carriage House and the Southern Maine seacoast area. While at the Carriage House take a swim in our newly renovated heated pool or gather some sun on the lounge chairs located on our large deck area. It's a great way to relax and have some water fun. The pool is open from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. during the summer. The pool is centrally located on premises so that your walk from your accommodation to the pool is a short one.
There are grills and picnic tables on the grounds for family picnics and barbecues. While having that cookout there are plenty of activities at the Carriage House to keep the family entertained. For the gamesters there is: shuffleboard, horseshoes, bocce, paddle tennis, croquet and our children's playground. All the game areas are nearby the picnic areas so you won't have to look far for them when it comes time to eat.
