On this episode we’re sitting down with Mike Girard, co-owner of the Kingfield Chalet near Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. Mike will take us through the journey of discovering and purchasing their dream cabin, how they’ve made it both a family getaway and a successful rental property, how sustainability has shaped the choices they’ve made for the cabin and why going eco-friendly is both rewarding and practical.

 If you’re interested in finding the right balance between cabin life, hosting, and making your space more eco-conscious, this episode is packed with valuable insights!
