About this property

Maine Bed & Boat, MAZU on the scenic Damariscotta River

Imagine relaxing on the deck, inhaling pure ocean air and nautical vibes, drink in hand, the freshest oysters on the table, lobsters in the pot, enjoying your own private sunset on the Damariscotta River in Maine.
Mazu is docked right in the quant village in Damariscotta, which is “just small enough to be charming, and just busy enough to be interesting.”
Two minutes from Route 1; and parking is free.1 hr from Portland and 2.5 hrs Bar Harbor! The use of two kayaks and a canoe is included. No pets, no parties.
The 42-foot Mazu features elegant bedding, a sleek kitchen, and spacious decks for sunning and entertaining. Two private staterooms are perfect for four guests; but with an additional sofa bed in the main salon, Mazu can accommodate up to five guests.

About the host

Hosted by Olga Oros

Host profile image
What I do depends on the season and the location. During the summer months in Maine I run Maine Bed and Boat and Damariscotta River Cruises with my partner, Captain Chip, meet amazing people, film, take photos, have fun and tend my organic garden. When the weather gets cooler I teach classes based on Traditional Chinese Medicine and Qigong. In the cold months I'm back in New York City and hibernate in the editing room creating documentary films. And somewhere in between I visit my family in Budapest and friends in other parts of the world.
