    FANTASTIC!!! We had the best time at Cook's Cottage. The location is terrific - we loved having water access to a nice lake that was very swimmable for our young family, as well as the close proximity into Damariscotta, as well as Round Pound. The kitchen is very well appointed and has literally everything you could ever need. Our children loved playing with the toys in the cottage (we did not pack any). We were out on the water every day swimming, SUP, kayak. We did Smores a couple nights at the fire pit. We are already booking our trip to return to this cottage next summer.

    What a wonderful vacation in Maine! My family enjoyed a relaxing week swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and just relaxing. We ate meals on the deck overlooking the lake, sat by the fire and spent the day swimming and lounging on the dock. The house was beautifully decorated, clean and was stocked with everything one could need. It was a great home away from home for the week. Being close to Damariscotta, we were able to enjoy dinner out and go for a walk through town. During the week we also visited Pemaquid Lighthouse and beach and Boothbay Harbor, both easy rides from the house. Definitely one of our favorite VRBO stays and a home and location we will look to return to!
