Dana has lived in the village of Salisbury Cove his whole life (so far).
The Heathwood Inn is situated on Mount Desert Island, in the township of Bar Harbor, and within the village of Salisbury Cove.
Dana's family home of 68 years is one mile from Heathwood Inn Bed & Breakfast Bar Harbor, Maine. Dana's mother still resides there!
His family has deep roots on the Island and throughout Maine.
In Fact, Dana's father's family were the Owners/Inn Keepers at the Woodland Cottages just up the road from the Heathwood Inn.
Lena is originally from California and lived in Florida 23 years before visiting New England and Maine in 2009. She fell head over heels in love with the area. Looking for an excuse to stay (forever) with the idea of being alone and happy, she bought a Made in Maine store in Bar Harbor, which moved her to Maine in 2011.
In December of 2011, Lena and Dana met as Dana was late Christmas shopping, and visited Lena's holiday vendor booth. The rest is making history!
They were married April 29, 2012 at the fountain in Agamont Park in the town of Bar Harbor, Maine.
