Wi-Fi and Internet

Network: UCSL-Guest

Wi-Fi and internet are not available in all accommodations. We encourage our guests to enjoy conversations and the outdoors versus electronics. VCRs and tapes may be provided upon request.

Children

We love kids! However, safety regulations in 1929 differ than those of today and due to the historic nature of the lodge, there are a few items to consider. Baluster spacing is wide and balcony railings are short, for this reason, the historic lodge and cabins are not recommended for small children.

Capacity Limits

Unity College Sky Lodge abides by State of Maine Eating and Lodging Rules. Each accommodation has limits to the maximum number of guests, for this reason cribs and cots are unavailable. Accommodation capacity limits are as follows:

• Mountain View Cabin – 6 guests
• Trails End Private Home – 8 guests
• Individual Guest Rooms – 2 guests

Do not dump ashes in the trash, on the deck, lawn, or snow. At this time, the fireplaces in the historic lodge are unavailable for use.

There’s no substitute for nature and trash can harm the wildlife.
