The Willows/Damariscotta Lake

 

Relax & Recharge at this Beautifully Renovated Dog-Friendly Lakeside Retreat!

Welcome to your perfect Maine getaway! Newly renovated from top to bottom, this beautifully updated, dog-friendly home combines modern comfort with the peaceful charm of lakeside living. Nestled on a quiet private lane, with an expansive meadow, and graceful willow trees, creating the perfect setting for a relaxing vacation.

The fully insulated home has been thoughtfully redesigned with comfort in mind. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary suite featuring a king-size bed, split-unit heating and air conditioning, a walk-in closet with laundry, and a private en-suite bathroom with double sinks and a walk-in shower. A sliding glass door leads directly to the newly renovated upper deck, where you can enjoy your morning coffee while taking in quiet beauty.
Also upstairs is a comfortable guest bedroom with a double bed and baseboard heat, a cozy study with a twin Murphy bed for additional sleeping space, and a second full bathroom with a shower.

The main level features a bright, open-concept living space that is perfect for gathering with family and friends. The fully equipped kitchen boasts elegant quartz countertops, a butcher block island, and everything needed to prepare meals during your stay. The dining and living areas are kept comfortable year-round with a split-unit heating and cooling system. Large triple-glazed windows and sliding glass doors fill the home with natural light while showcasing spectacular views in every direction. A convenient half bath and spacious walk-in coat closet complete the first floor.

Outside, enjoy the home's brand-new board-and-batten exterior and nearly one acre of open front lawn—perfect for children, lawn games, and four-legged family members to roam. The quiet private lane is ideal for biking, walking, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Guests will also love the detached rustic bunkhouse, which remains as shown in the current photos. Equipped with electricity (but no plumbing or heating/air conditioning), it's the perfect bonus space for board games, puzzles, reading, or an afternoon nap after a day on the lake.

Just a five-minute walk down the lane brings you to the brand-new shared lakeside dock, where you can swim, kayak, canoe, or fish for a day on beautiful Damariscotta Lake.

Please Note: The dock is shared with one neighboring property. Guests may use vehicles to unload and load watercraft but may not leave vehicles parked at the dock. Please return vehicles to the property and follow all posted dock and house rules.

Conveniently located just minutes from Damariscotta Lake State Park's public beach, Jefferson Scoops Ice Cream, Jefferson Market & General Store, and only a short drive to downtown Damariscotta, you'll enjoy easy access to unique shops, local restaurants, art galleries, historic sites, live theater, and scenic river cruises.
Whether you're looking for peaceful mornings overlooking the lake, afternoons spent exploring Midcoast Maine, or evenings relaxing by the fire after a day on the water, this beautifully renovated retreat offers the perfect home base for creating unforgettable Maine memories.
