DragonFlye Inn

We also provide all the information you'll need for day trips to explore the rest of the Blue Hill Peninsula, Castine Maine, Deer Isle and its lively art community, as well as day trips to Mount Desert Island, Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. In the library you will find a list and description of nearby art galleries and restaurants, as well as descriptions and maps of suggested bike routes, walks and sea kayak trips. Each morning we are available to share our experiences with the hope of making your days in Brooklin Maine flow more easily.

We designed and decorated each three-room suite with local art and craft, utilizing and reflecting local materials, skill and energy as much as possible. All the art and some of the furniture in each room were made either on the Blue Hill Peninsula or nearby in Maine.

We guarantee that, to the greatest practical extent, every product that is not actively reused at DragonFlye Inn will be either organically grown, manufactured with sustainable practices or some combination of both. Wherever possible all products will be bought only from companies dedicated to Fair Trade standards of practice. You will be provided soaps made locally from all natural materials. Even the trash bin liner (when not a reused plastic grocery bag) and the cleaning products we utilize are 100% natural, biodegradable and earth friendly.

Our pledge extends beyond the products you will immediately utilize or consume as our guest. As we update this 1874 "cottage", you will eventually sleep under a faux-slate roof made from recycled automotive tires, be kept warm by insulation made from recycled plastic, and by the end of 2008 more than 30% of all the energy keeping you comfortable during your stay will be generated on site from either solar or wind power; 80% by 2010. Join us as we strive to lead the way into a new era of sustainable, ecologically and socially conscious tourism.
