THE LOCATION
A wide path just downhill from the deck guides you to the lake. Take a dip on warm days or bring your own canoe or paddleboard to explore the wetlands just past the beaver lodge on the point.
The seasonal dock is pulled from the water during the fall and reinstalled in May. The dock extends 50 feet over the water and is perfect for launching a canoe, kayak or even a small motorboat however we do not offer watercraft at this time.
Wildlife abounds on the property. You will likely fall asleep to the mournful call of the loons on the lake. King fishers and heron also make the lake their home.

In the lake there are, alewife, trout, pickerel, perch and both large and small mouth bass. In the woods there are martin, red fox, chipmunk, squirrel and deer. There is an enormous bald eagle’s nest high up in an eastern white pine just past our cove. Bald eagles can be seen soaring over the cove and often perch in a large pine just above the point by the estuary.
Explore the dozens of the coves and the many islands on Damariscotta Lake, a water-wonderland that provides phenomenal bird watching and fishing over it’s 10-mile length. Within walking and paddle boarding distance is Damariscotta Mills – a charming neighborhood beach and swimming area.
