- It's Camden, Maine home decor store tour time! Say that 10 times fast! We took a New England vacation for our five year anniversary so I thought I would also take you on a private hotel tour and show you some of the design touches inside of the resort. We stayed in a luxury oceanfront cottage, in the middle of a golf course, at the Samoset Resort, in Rockport, Maine. While I'm at it, I will take you on a short exterior home tour, garden tour, and a walk down the Rockland Breakway to the the lighthouse.

I hope you enjoyed the video of our anniversary getaway in Rockport, ME and seeing the shops the I visited in Camden, ME.
RUclips needs a thumbs up button with 1,000 exclamation points! That's what this video deserves. Thank you.
Wow, thanks Anna!
When It isn’t possible to go and visit a beautiful vacation spot it is so nice to have a friend who lovingly takes you along on their vacation 😌 thank you it was beautiful.
Thank you Patsy!
@@newenglandfineliving I feel the same way. So relaxing and the music was so perfect that it made me tear up. Just so lovely! Thank you! 🌸
Thank you for taking your RUclips friends along for a tour. Everything was breathtaking, I love the peaceful sound of water on the shore. Never enough peonies.
Thank you for watching! You might catch a glimpse of more peonies in a few more videos in the background LOL
I absolutely love this video! So much beauty everywhere. I love that you took peonies with you. Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed it!
These are my favorite videos Linda. When you take us shopping and looking at houses whether it’s in or out I just love them. And you my dear are a gem yourself. I’m grateful for all of your vids. Thank you. ♥️
You are so welcome!
Oh, my! My heart's singing 🥰 I could easily live by the ocean and feel the salty breezes, any time!
Thank you for sharing this video with gorgeous surroundings and lovely views 💖
I'm glad you enjoyed it Helena!
What a treat ! I love the way you film. I could almost smell the ocean back here in Michigan. Happy Anniversary 🥂
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a lovely treat to be able to see the beautiful resort where you stayed for your anniversary. Cant thank you enough. No matter if we tour one of your shopping trips or your lovely home, I believe we are all happy just to be included! Thank you
My pleasure! Thank you for watching
I feel like I’ve been in a mini vacation just watching this beautiful video! The Samoset Resort looks spectacular & the shopping looks amazing! Whenever we go away, like you, kindred spirit, I’ll bring candles & flowers & even vintage table cloths to warm up our surroundings! So glad you had such a wonderful time!🌸🌿
I like that you bring a vintage table cloth! How fun!
oh to sit on that bench and overlook the pind... the peaceful tranquility is like a dream. You are so blessed to have someone to spend these times with.
Thank you Liane. I don't take any of it for granted and do feel blessed.
Oh to have the vocabulary to fully express how soothing, intriguing, and peaceful this video was. Please continue to present more like this. I enjoyed a mini vacation. With much appreciation, thank you.
Thank you! Will do!
I enjoy watching your videos so much, but what I really love is the history that you share of everyplace you are and film. Thank you.💌💌💌
Your narrative descriptions add so much to the gorgeous videos. I think one thing that sets your channel apart is your dry humor and being comfortable with who you are. Despite the “fine living” tag line, your videos feel very down to earth.
Thank you Maria! That means a lot to me.
Absolutely a gorgeous tour--thank you, Linda!
You are so welcome!
Thx for including me on this lovely getaway. Beautiful! I had a delightful time. :))
Yes…would enjoy more of these…👍🏻
Your posts make me homesick for New England. I love them. I loved living there as a new bride and nowhere else feels the same. Thank you for the nostalgia.
Thanks for sharing! New England misses you too!
@@newenglandfineliving Such a lovely reply. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking us along! I have several health problems so I am unable to go anywhere. Seeing something like this was wonderful. ❤️❤️❤️
I'm glad you were able to join me virtually Catherine! I will take you with me on more trips! Soon we will be walking in a field looking for wild flowers. ;-)
Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us! I love Maine and seeing it through your eyes was such a treat!
You are so welcome!
This was lovely. It’s why we life here in New England isn’t it? This sort of thing elicits emotions that defy expression with words. There is only one other place in the world I would ever chose to live and that would be in Great Britain....Thank You.....
I totally agree with you. I have never been to Great Britain, but it is on our bucket list since we have so many ancestors from there.
Thank you once again for a lovely tour. As always it was spectacular thanks to your wonderful gift of filming. I live on the West Coast and never tire of the mild weather, overcast skies and cool days. Would love to visit New England. I love your peonies! Happy Anniversary! ❤️💕
Your welcome and thank you for watching!
I felt like we were there, too. It was totally lovely. 💐🎶 happy belated anniversary 💕
Thank you Rhonda! 🤗
It it so wonderful to see these places. You have such an artist's eye when you are filming. Thank you for including us.
Thank you so much!
How calming and beautiful You have such a quiet elegance in all that you say and do. A pleasure to watch and listen to. Happy anniversary. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you so very much Eleanor!
Linda ...just beautiful. The music added such a beautiful and peaceful touch. Glad you got away for a peaceful time.
Thank you Janine!
Thanks for taking us along!! It was such a treat. 💖💕
You are so welcome!
It's so funny but it just shows how strong our Sense of smell is. If you ever smelled a peonies it sticks with you forever. I can smell the one in the car with you. That and a magnolia you never forget. Thanks so much for bringing us along.
Thank you for visiting with me!
What a beautiful place! So magical and I can’t wait to visit one day with my husband. I am adding it to my bucket list.
Thank you for the beautiful, calm, refreshing visit to Maine. As a native Floridian, I've always thought Maine was too chilly for a visit, however, I would go just to see the amazing antique wicker tables, tea cart, and chairs in Leslie Curtis Designs' shop!
It does depend on the time of year. Late July and early August is a great time to visit Maine for true hot (more so constant) weather.
The Lotus flowers are so calming at the end of this awesome video. Thank you for filming while on vacation!🌹
You are so welcome!
I never get tired of anything you show us !! I just love your channel!!
Thank you Lynn!
I love Rockport and Camden Maine. We used to go to visit Maine ( Boothbay Harbor) every summer from Ontario Canada for about 20 years until Covid came along. We visited so many charming stores, antique stores and wonderful restaurants. We visited everywhere along the coast and it is my favourite place to be. I love the ocean and have lots of sea glass and antique treasures from the lovely areas. I think I know every store in Camden, Rockport and Boothbay Harbor and made friends with people we would see every year. Your video has made me so happy especially when I heard the sound of the ocean touching the shore and you picked up the heart shaped sea glass. I could almost smell the sea air. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing and watching!
I have collected so many heart rocks from different locations. Found so many at the beach right after my mom passed.
Oh Linda what a Gorgeous place. I felt like i was on vacation looking at this video. I Loved all those Beautiful Shops i would definitely have a grand time shopping in them. Thank you for taking us along for this Amazing Tour. So until next time God Bless you and your husband and have a Blessed day tomorrow and Stay Safe my dear Friend. 💚😊💚😊💚😊💚
Than you so much Joan!
I would have been happy staying where Willow stayed. lol. This was a beautiful scenic video. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic, everything was wonderful to see. Thank you for sharing and the way you explain it. Can't wait to see your peony sketch, I love peonies so I never get tired of looking at yours.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I forgot. Happy anniversary enjoy your day
Thank you! You too!
Oh my goodness. What a beautiful place to visit. Love that you took the peonies with you. I have a hay rake like the one at the end of the video and a small collection of heart shaped rocks. Thanks so much for sharing this! 💕
I am also a charter member of China Buyers Anonymous! 😂
Loved this video! Thank you!
Welcome to the group! Luckily there are no meetings (yet)
Love this relaxing video especially the last part. My husband & I went to Maine, NY, VT, NH, Conn., a few years ago during the Fall, walked the same places you did. Best vacation ever. Want to go back soon. We are kindred spirits and my soul is at peace in New England. Wish I could move. Thank you for taking the time from your romantic Anniversary weekend to film this. Much appreciated. Til next time kindred spirit. Linda from Florida
I'm glad you got to enjoy it all!
Thankyou for taking us on tour with you loved it all tfs🏖
You are so welcome!
I really enjoyed this video. I appreciate the music you choose to accompany all of your videos. It adds another layer of enjoyment. Happy Anniversary!
Awesome, thank you! I do put a lot into the music and I love hearing that you notice.
Hi Linda...I’m a born Mainer and live on the southern Maine coast. Very familiar with the Rockland and Camden areas. Love everything about those areas. You picked a great resort!
Thank you for another beautiful video Linda. So enjoyable to watch. It almost seems as though I was right there, in person, doing the visit.
That was such a lovely tour. I enjoyed it very much. I felt a bit like I got to go on vacation with you! The last part really took my breath away, it was so gorgeous. And the music you had at the end to accompany it was also beautiful. It made me almost tear up. Thank you. I gotta get to Maine!!
Thank you so much!
Maine us one of my very favorite places! Went there as a child and stayed on the coast in a cottage by Bar Harbour. It stuck with me and I vacationed there as a young adult. I would love to take my kids there someday.💗😊
It is such a beautiful area!
Thank you for sharing God’s wonderful Beauty .
You're welcome Maxine!
Always enjoy these outdoor visits. So beautiful.
Thank you for letting me know that! I will surely do more!
I’m fortunate enough to live in the state of Maine 🙂 my husband and I will have to check this resort it’s beautiful! We’ve been traveling in state since last summer, and you forget when you live here how beautiful this state is.
Have fun if you go there!
I am a founding member of CBA’ just cant help myself........one day at a time Linda!
LOL!
Wonderful video as usual. Your taste is impeccable and the music was also. Great job!! 💕 Willow!!
Thank you so much!
Can’t wait to check out this area of Maine! The shops looked amazing and my hubby would love the lighthouse. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Funny, I’m going to Rockport Massachusetts for a get away this July!
A wonderful getaway destination! So many cute shops.
Such a lovely place to visit. I offered myself a week-end getaway in Rockport, Mass in 2018 for my 60th birthday. All the way from Canada. Lodged at the Bearskin Neck Motor Lodge with a balcony right on the sea from my room! Only thing missing was a glass of wine while enjoying the view. I didn't know it was a dry town until I got there. Enjoy your stay !
Hi Linda I've been watching you for 3 years now I love your ideas and your creativity also your decor a lot of things you do God bless
Thank you so much for watching Martha!
This is such a breathtakingly beautiful area. The next time I travel to the USA I have to make sure I spent a couple of days to see this coast. And I need an extra suitcase then, because I just love the shops. So thank you so much for sharing. I will have to watch this video several times.
Yes, the coast and many of the towns are so beautiful! Thank you for watching Gabrela
Lovely travelogue! We moved from Boston to Coastal Maine last year. It’s paradise. Even the winter was gorgeous. I ❤️ Maine.
We have greatly consider the coast of Maine for retirement over the years. This past visit made us think about it even more. May I ask what area you are in?
@@newenglandfineliving Hi! We’re actually in Windham about 15 min from Portland, which we love and 10 min from Lake Sebago - also gorgeous. We bought a reproduction of the Gov Trumbull house in CT. It’s 25 years old but feels 200, in a good way! Acre of land surrounded by conservation but in a nice neighborhood so not isolated. Good luck with your search! (Cape Elizabeth is wonderful with many antiques but out of our price range.)
How beautiful 🤩 so unique and relaxing, great choice of music 🎶 so calming. Happy Anniversary 💘💘 Of course I like this type of video. I’m seeing ‘New England’ thru you Linda and it is beautiful 💚. Thank you.
Thank you so much 🤗
I so enjoyed your anniversary spoil. I am a romantic. Don't tell anyone. "And the peony laughed and laughed."
Thank you Gwen! I love that you noticed it laughed ;-)
Oh this was a delightful visit with you and Ben - thanks for sharing it!
Absolutely Beautiful! What a wonderful part of the world you live in ❤
Thank you! It really is a beautiful area!
in my alternate life, i would love to live in Maine.. stunning... lucky woman!! beautiful vid, thank you!!
It really is a beautiful place. Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much Linda for sharing! Everything was so lovely and peaceful. 🙂
You're welcome Patty! Thank you for watching
Linda loved your video I was glued to the video lovely treats for he eyes! Beautiful! I like that you mix things up travel quaint shops garden gorgeous homes scenery everything New England. I could watch for hours but I would never get anything done! But who cares I love it all😊
I'm so glad to hear that you like the videos Sherry! I always question myself. Thank you so much for your input. Hugs!
Wow! Such beautiful places ! Your videos are filled with the most gorgeous homes and property’s. Very nice💕
Thank you Sherry!
What a lovely video tour! I enjoyed the views of Maine a lot as I’m planning our next trip up there.
I had to watch the video again with my husband because I wanted him to see this beautiful area too. Thanks for sharing this.
Glad you enjoyed it Debbie!
Wow! what a beautiful resort Happy Anniversary, yes I would love to see more videos like this one your videos pull me right in almost like I'm there. Thank you for sharing.
I love hearing that Jean thank you!
So very beautiful & peaceful! Happy Anniversary...a bit late!
I love Maine! Ive been to Rockport and Booth Bay, both are amazing, and love the shopping of course. Thanks for taking us on your anniversary vacation. Your peonies are gorgeous and I am a chinaholic as well.
Thanks for watching! CBA all the way!
Beautiful footage of a beautiful place. Looks you and your Mr had a lovely time. So happy you shared!
Thank you Mrs. Doucette!
Fabulous! I want to go there! We haven’t been to Maine in a long time. We must plan a trip. Thank you for all the great shopping destinations.
You're welcome! Enjoy
Such a nice video. I enjoyed all of it but the scenery and music at the end was my favorite. Don’t think I myself could have walked out to the lighthouse but I felt like I was right there. Thank you so much for sharing and Happy Anniversary 🌸
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Karen!
Mid Coast Maine, especially Rockland and Camden, is one my favorite places to visit. We live in NH so it’s not too far and we go at least once or twice a year. There is so much to do and the restaurants are wonderful. There is an awesome Botanical Garden called Mid Coast Maine Botanical Garden about 45 minutes south of Rockland in Boothbay. It’s been named one of the best in the country. Even if you’re not a gardener it’s a fun place to visit.
Linda I’m glad you were able to celebrate your anniversary there. I love your videos!
Oh yes! I love The Botanical Garden! We stay in Boothbay each year. We are heading that way this fall.
I loved watching this video. My husband and I have been to Camden and Rockport twice. We made it out the breakwater to the lighthouse on the second visit. The first time we tried, it was very windy and we only made it halfway before we turned back, lol. Your video makes me want to visit again.
I can't even imagine going out there in the wind!!! I'd be crawling back on my hands and knees for fear of being blown over into the water. LOL
Such a beautiful area of our country Linda. Thank you for sharing it! My visits to the north have been few and far between even though my ancestors were French Huguenot founding members of New Rochelle, NY and I have had family roots continuously there since the mid 1600’s. I was born and raised in the southern US. In fact, I’m the first generation of my family that wasn’t born in Westchester County New York since they established New Rochelle. I’d truly love to explore more of the Northeast to trace my roots further and take in the beauty and history of all of this part of our country. Thanks to you, I get to at least do it through your channel until I get there again in person! Susan
Thank you for sharing Susan! Isn't it fun knowing how far back your family goes here in the US?
I love this type of video. I put Camden on my bucket list to visit. ❤️
Wonderful! Enjoy if you get there!
Linda: I so enjoyed viewing the area. I have been to Maine a couple of times, but not Camden. It is on my bucket list near the top. That area is beautiful and the town looks so charming. Thank you for the tour.
Have fun if you get there! There are so many great towns to visit
@@newenglandfineliving Thank you for taking the time to reply to me.....Love your videos, Linda.
Two years ago we visited Maine and one of our stops for a couple of days was Rockport on our way down from Acadia - did the breakwater walk and loved it! I used to live in CT and Maine was one of my fav states to visit. Visited Camden and saw the beautiful view from above and walked the downtown area. Wished I knew about the home decor stores but I didn’t “know” you then 😂. This video makes me want to go back! Thanks Linda for the delightful tour. Mandy fromTucson🌵
Thank you for sharing Mandy! Now you know me and if you return to New England, you will know some more home decor shopping destinations! :-)
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful video absolutely gorgeous. You did an amazing job filming.👍❤️
Thank you!
It was lovely! I much prefer this type of video.
Glad you liked it!
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing! And…you are not alone. I could also be a member of CBA!

thank you for sharing your vacation. What a beautiful place i really hope i get to see it in person one day when all the restrictions lift and we can travel overseas again, we are in Western Australia
I hope so too! I love that restrictions have been lifted here for the most part.
Thank you Linda, it was beautiful. I felt like I was on vacation with you. I just had an argument with my neighbor over oak floors vs laminate which I'm sure you would understand. Your video was very restful after such a heated argument.
I can relate! LOL.
Loved it! Always enjoy your videos, whether home or away on an adventure.
I'm glad to hear that! Thank you Stephanie!
Just gorgeous! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Wonderful video Linda, I loved it. The shops you visited were wonderful.
