Our History

Historical sign of Spring Hill recreation area in South Berwick Maine

In the 60's Spring Hill served as a local public recreation area, drawing people from around the area to enjoy its hills, pine groves, and waterfront for picnics, games, and swimming in the summer, and skating, skiing and tobogganing in the winter. The Lodge, with its panoramic view of the recreation area, and its warm open fireplace, warmed the hands and hearts of local families.

In the 70's, John and Rosalie Scharf became the owners and caretakers of the South Berwick landmark. The grounds and facilities were modernized, and the two decades to follow saw Spring Hill and its scenic acres become a highly sought-after venue for weddings, company picnics, banquets, private parties, dances, and business functions.

In the 90's, son Eric Scharf continued the family tradition and took on a management role at Spring Hill.

Spring Hill on a summer evening

In the 2000's, Spring Hill was completely rebuilt. The new facility is a beautifully rustic and modern building boasting panoramic views from all function rooms. A large walk-out deck hugs the entire length of the building, overlooking the countryside and the waterfront.

In 2022, Spring Hill continues to offer affordable all-inclusive Maine wedding and function services, in addition to hosting a variety of local community and charity events.
