Damariscotta Pemaquid Lake Retreat

✓ High-speed Wi-Fi ✓ Washer & Dryer ✓ ✓ All-Day Sun ✓ Kayaks & Canoe ✓ Screened Porch ✓ Fire Pit ✓ Fully Stocked Kitchen

Welcome to your home away from home on beautiful Pemaquid Lake. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath lakefront retreat is the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and experience a classic Maine lake vacation.

The highlight of the property is the private dock. Thanks to its southern exposure, it stays in the sunshine for nearly the entire day—a rare feature on Maine lakes. The water at the end of the dock is deep enough to jump right in, making it the perfect place to swim, float, fish, or simply relax with a good book. Guests are also welcome to explore the lake using the kayaks and canoe provided.

After a day on the water, unwind on the charming screened porch overlooking the lake. It's one of our favorite places to gather, whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, sharing a family meal, playing games, or simply listening to the loons as the sun sets.

Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting home with comfortable gathering spaces and beautiful lake views. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked with everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. Along with the everyday essentials, you'll find thoughtful extras like a blender, pasta maker, and a wide variety of cookware, bakeware, utensils, and serving dishes, making it easy to prepare anything from a simple breakfast to a memorable family dinner.

The home comfortably accommodates families and groups with three thoughtfully designed bedrooms. The primary suite features a king bed, a private balcony overlooking the lake, TV, window A/C, and an ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. The second bedroom offers a queen bed with beautiful lake views, while the third bedroom provides a cozy, naturally darker space that's perfect for sleeping in after a fun day on the lake.

A Day at the Lake

Wake up to the sound of loons and enjoy a quiet cup of coffee on the screened porch as the morning mist lifts from the lake. Spend the day swimming from the dock, paddling across Pemaquid Lake in the kayaks or canoe, fishing, reading in the sunshine, or simply relaxing by the water. As the sun begins to set, gather around the fire pit to roast marshmallows, share stories, and enjoy the peaceful sounds of the lake under a sky full of stars.

Whether you're planning a family vacation, a couples' getaway, or a trip with friends, this lakefront retreat offers the perfect balance of relaxation, adventure, and classic Maine charm.

Some vacations are forgotten. The best ones become family traditions—and we hope your time on Pemaquid Lake is the first of many.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a desk.

Wonderful lake

The house is in an idyllic location. The only problem was the house was not clean. The tops of stuff was dusted but the floors had not been vacuumed or mopped in a while.
