    Beautiful location on the water and very close to all the shops and restaurants in Newcastle and Damariscotta.

    We loved our week long stay at the cottage. The views are spectacular! Perfect location for walking to shops and restaurants! We took a boat ride for a day trip to Monhegan Island and also went to the Botanical Gardens! Recommend the lobster rolls at Schooners across the river but every restaurant we went to was fantastic!! The sandwiches at Fernald’s country store are great also!!! We attempted the Van Gogh puzzle but didn’t start it early enough!! Maybe next year !!

    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!

    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.

    Perfect location! Within walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Such a relaxing spot, watching the tides, birds and even a seal!

    Exactly what we were looking for, on the water, close to restaurants, big deck with beautiful views down the river!

    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!

    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! ?

    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 wasn’t 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!
