Charming cottage on the Damariscotta River, easy walk to downtown.
Rustic Maine cottage on the banks of the Damariscotta River with dock and river access. A historic, classic New England area with fresh seafood and produce abound -- plus many outdoor activities to enjoy. The property is downtown, a short walk to the charming twin villages of Newcastle and Damriscotta in mid-coast Maine. Many excellent restaurants and artisan shops are nearby. For getting outdoors -- hiking, kayaking, boating, beach and other ocean activities. There are also beautiful lakes and estuarine waters all around.
Perfect spot! Comfortable accommodations and great host! Enjoyed yoga on the dock, SUP/yoga on the river and walking to shops and restaurants. Best kept secret in the area! We will be back for sure!
The house was very accommodating and perfect for the 4 of us! It was clean and comfortable and close to town. Comfy beds, nice views. We enjoyed time on the deck and the dock.
Only suggestions may be to have access to a toaster and microwave. Communication with the owner was great-positive, helpful and very responsive!
Had a great stay at the cottage. Although the building is rustic, the amenities (eg, hot water heater, washer, dryer, etc.) are great and high quality. Owner was responsive and helpful (eg, when we noticed there wasnât a lobster pot, when the awning ripped during high winds, etc.) Getting access to the cottage was seamless and easy to get situated. It was so nice to quickly walk to town and visit restaurants and shops. The location also offers easy driving access to both points on either side of the town. One nice addition for the future would be a close out guide. I felt like I cleaned and did everything well before departing but it would be nice to have a checklist so I know I hit all the marks. Thanks so much and hope to visit again soon!
Perfect for those looking both to have walking access to Damariscotta and have an oceanside location. The stay we booked was during the winter holiday and cottage was very cozy - including a wood stove (although we did not use). Would definitely recommend!
The location was fabulous overlooking Damariscotta riverside. Easy walk to restaurants and shops. Fabulous view of boats on the river. Charming and rustic. Good central location to drive to other sights in mid coast Maine.
We had an excellent time, and the best part of this property was its location! Never had to deal with traffic except to go to other towns. Shops and restaurants are steps away. Enjoyed the deck and dock. It's not fancy, but it is comfortable and clean.
Probably not the best option for families with small children due to its proximity to the water and lack of outdoor 'play space' however, it is perfect for relaxing adults. We'd stay here again--who knows? maybe this fall! đ
