A rental concept that might swing in our Irish Quarter, but otherwise, “No sex, please, we’re WASPS”.

“the home is sanitized thoroughly with “hospital-grade disinfectant” and a black light between each guest, according to Corpening.” I can’t even ….

This coastal Maine rental house is designed for sex 

Hidden Honey Homes, a company that outfits single-family homes into adult-only short-term rentals, opened its first Maine location on Dec. 1, 2025. It’s one of only four locations in the country owned by the Florida-based company. 

“We’re for modern couples who either are proactively preventing a rift in their relationship or may be experiencing that and want to spice things up,” said Erica Corpening, who co-founded Hidden Honey Homes with her husband. “Or maybe couples just need a getaway and need to know that it’s okay to have sex somewhere.” 

While other companies throughout the country have created similar adult-only rentals, this is the only known instance of one in Maine. It also adds a new competitor to the region’s expansive short-term rental market that can limit housing for year-round residents.

… The home sits on the bank of the Union River in Ellsworth and the exterior looks no different from others around it. The rental has a three night minimum and costs vary throughout the year. In the height of the summer, fees can be more than $1,300 per night, the booking website shows. 

Designed for two people, the home offers a standard kitchen, living space, one bedroom and one bathroom. The property’s other bedrooms, however, have been remodeled to be themed “play rooms” with restraints and specialized furniture that are designed for couples to be intimate. 

The company’s other locations are in Florida, where the founders live, and North Carolina. The owners sought out a coastal Northeast location because Corpening was raised in Massachusetts and “New England is near and dear to my heart,” she said. 

Sex among Protestants is never to be spoken of, and certainly, no proper couple would want to be seen checking into a house whose neighbors would know exactly what they intended to do in there! The horrors!
