Dog-friendly Maine 1 BR lakeside cottage with WiFi, laundry, and full kitchen.

Your cozy getaway awaits in Augusta at this charming lakeside cottage. With 1 bedroom featuring a plush queen bed, it's the perfect retreat for couples or solo guests with/without pets. Amenities include WiFi, in-window AC in the bedroom + living room, full kitchen, and a washer/dryer. A ramp from the driveway to the deck, walk-in shower with grab bars, and a low step into the house make it friendly for people with mobility issues. The large deck out front has a table and chairs for outdoor dining, and a smaller deck out back lets you take coffee with lake views.

The yard is fenced and dogs are welcome as long as the dog is not a puppy (for the sake of the furniture!). Owners of dogs under 30 lb need to be mindful that they might wriggle under the gate; we recommend small dogs stay leashed and supervised. And yes, we do allow multiple dogs, but please let us know if it's more than two.

Early risers will be rewarded with pastel sunrises over still waters; night owls can watch the stars reflect in the water from the back deck. Relax in the recliner and listen to the loons calling, golf at the nearby links, walk down by the Kennebec River, visit historic Old Fort Western, go antiquing in Hallowell, or bring your fishing rod and try for bass or pickerel in the pond. Our property provides a comfortable and inviting home away from home—off the beaten path, but it's only a 15- to 20-minute drive to restaurants, shopping, and more.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.

We loved this place. It was so peaceful and quiet. Loved to see the different wildlife on the lake. Only suggestion we have is maybe a privacy shade in the bathroom, so you can have more privacy when taking a shower.Loved that there wasn’t a TV. It made for a very relaxing weekend stay.

Great spot on the pond! Wonderful place for couple or one person to stay. The dogs loved the fenced in yard and so did we. Home had everything we needed to make meals. Also had many of the small things like coffee filters, foil, a few zip lock bags etc that saved us having to pick up. We heard loons throughout our stay, and saw a bald eagle fly over the pond a few times. Its 10 minutes from Augusta, grocery less than 6 miles away. Communication was great with host. Hiked many of the trails around Augusta with dogs. Didn’t miss a TV at all. Home was very comfortable.

The house was lovely and contained numerous thoughtful amenities. The fenced-in yard was perfect for our Great Pyrenees, and the proximity to the water (Dam Pond) was ideal. Sunsets were truly beautiful. One suggestion for future visitors would be a BBQ grill. We truly enjoyed our stay, and the owner, Elizabeth, was helpful and amiable. We would definitely consider a return. Our biggest problem was the 8-9 hour drive from NJ.

Lovely, quiet place on Dam Pond. With the windows open, I could hear the loons at night and in the morning. The cottage is the perfect size for one or two people and was well-stocked. I appreciated that the owner stocked decent paper towels and toilet paper. Boxes of Kleenex would also be helpful. There was one hot day when I closed the windows and used the air conditioner and ceiling fans - they were enough to keep the house reasonably cool for me and my little dog. Two things that can't be helped were the proximity to the road (sound of cars going by) and the number of deer flies - the latter made me reluctant to spend much time out in the yard (hence the four stars). But even with that, we had a lovely time. It was a good jumping off place to visit local sites - I went whale- and puffin-watching out of Boothbay Harbor.

Fantastic Cottage on Beautiful Pond

This property was perfect for us and our labs. The house was very comfortable on a beautiful pond. We saw beaver, mallards, loons, and bald eagles. The kitchen was well equipped and we ate in during our stay. The host was very helpful. We would definitely stay here again!
