I booked this tour for six of us because I knew we would have a Sunday afternoon to kill in a cold Portland in February. Now I dont drink but I would say this was a thoroughly enjoyable and interesting tour. All very friendly too. Well recommended, we may just go back next year.

Stopped here with local friends to pick a few apples and purchase pumpkins. Went out in the field, there were slim pickings and a lot of the later apples were ripe yet. Still managed to find a good amount. Went back and picked out pumpkins in the greenhouse. There were a variety of mums outside for sale too - very pretty. Then we went inside to see what fresh veggies there were. We bought some tomatoes, shallots, peppers and other items to make a primavera sauce at home. It was delicious. They had apples for sale inside, probably better sticking to that if you're looking for the best choice -- of course apple picking is always fun!

The wait staff is very friendly. The menue is pub fare and most of the choices are very good. The Nacho's are awesome! Best part is the cold beer! My wife and I come here twice a month just to relax in the comfortable chairs and watch a movie.

Four of us spent a half day at "Armand's Kitchen" in a hands-on cooking class with Chef Doug. He asked us to choose the menu for the day and we selected a pasta menu, for which he came up with four different entrees to prepare that day, plus homemade bread and dessert!
We had a terrific time laughing and learning as Doug showed us many tips and tricks that make cooking easier, from dicing an onion to simple knife skills. In addition, we made three different kinds of pasta and went home with the leftovers, aprons, tote bags and great memories! We highly recommend a stop at Armand's Kitchen if you are in the Lakes Region just off Route 302 in Windham, Maine.

This area of Maine is gorgeous. We went in a boat and took a tour of the lakes (small, middle, and large). The scenery, the homes, the blue, blue water.......just gorgeous. Most boats just putter around, cause there is so much to take in. Did some night catch and release fishing - great! Staying in a converted boat house of our families. It is so cozy and comfy. Loving it.
