Waterfront, dog-friendly home on Damariscotta Lake with sunrise view

Damariscotta Sunrise

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Greet each morning with a sunrise view over Damariscotta Lake at this waterfront home in Jefferson, a classic glimpse of Maine if there ever was one. Cross the beautiful lawn out back to spend memorable days canoeing, kayaking, and marveling at the view from the water's edge.

This home sits on the lake's western shore, about eight miles south of small-town Jefferson and Damariscotta Lake State Park. When you're not out on the water fishing for salmon, brown trout, smallmouth bass, or white perch, you can easily meet up with Route 1 in Damariscotta (10 miles south) to explore. Boothbay Harbor (25 miles), Rockland (32 miles), and Camden (32 miles) are just a few of the charming villages within day-tripping distance.

No matter how you spend your days, you'll delight in returning to this lakefront retreat. Slide open the doors to the deck, light the gas grill for dinner, and dine alfresco in the crisp Maine air.

Find every essential indoors, including a well-equipped kitchen, a dining area, and a woodstove to curl up next to in the evenings. Leave the day's clothes spinning in the washer/dryer as you stream movies on the smart TV or share photos over the high-speed WiFi.

Simple and rustic
Cabin is rustic, a few updates are needed to make it more usable - for example, the living room furniture is unusable because it is disintegrating, so there's nowhere comfy to sit inside on a rainy day. Not shown in picture is a neighbor's cabin RIGHT on the waterfront. And lastly, there's no oven in this camp (electric stove stop only), so be prepared. If you're traveling with a crew, bring your own large cooking pan as the largest pan there is in disrepair.

Go elsewhere!
Falsely advertised! The original booking should say that this is a shared waterfront with shared dock space and parking. I asked about AC and was told there were window units in the bedrooms which was NOT true. There was one unit on wheels in the "dining area" that had no hose for venting. Screens to deck had holes in them. Bathroom faucet was constantly dripping. A week prior we got a message saying that the owner had his boat at the dock and the basement was off limits. Good thing we didn't have a boat rental lined up! We didn't even bother to stay at the house at all. Should get all of my money back for the false advertising. We have rented a lot of houses through online sites and this was the worst. Pictures don't include anything of any consequence on purpose. Living room furniture was completely torn up. Basement was boarded up not even a proper door. Steps up to the house didn't seem to be attached to the house. No oven. Bad all the way around. We didn't even stay in the house at all. We walked in looked around for 5 minutes in disbelief and left.

Don’t stay here!
Trash welcomed us when we pulled in. Dirty floors, broken floor boards, broken deck chairs, filth and lots of dog hair everywhere! Couch and chairs in the living room were torn and scratched by something with claws. The kitchen had broken cabinets and a dirty washing machine. Reached out to Vrbo and Vacasa and they couldn’t get a hold of the owner to clean or get the trash. Awful experience!
