About this property

With stunning, panoramic river views, this is more than mere waterfront.

This simple, charmingly rustic cottage sits right over the Damariscotta River, affording serene waterfront seclusion; at high tide, the river laps the shore beneath your feet. Upstairs, you'll find one bedroom with a double bed, futon, and closet. Downstairs, the living room couch folds out to a double bed. The ground floor includes living room, full kitchen, and bathroom, opening up onto a spacious deck and float, providing access to several miles of island-studded river views--perfect for exploring by kayak or rowboat (rowboat available upon request).

Moreover, at your feet sits a remnant of old Maine - a real working waterfront, complete with fishermen, yachts, and a thriving aquaculture oyster farm. Lobsters and other seafood are available right on the wharf.

The cottage itself sits below a field two hundred yards from a country road, seven miles south of the market town of Damariscotta.

PLEASE NOTE: this property is only available on a weekly basis, renting Saturday to Saturday. No smoking is allowed. On weekday mornings, the fishermen may start their engines early, but it is a brief and a minor disturbance.

Cottage @ Back Cove :)
Very cozy and comfortable. You cannot beat the view from the cottage. Space heaters needed when it gets colder but they worked like a charm. Thank you Becky for being a terrific host

Maine Getaway
"Honeymoon Cottage" was adorable. Small and rustic with all the comforts of home. Just what we were hoping for. The location was beautiful and quiet.
