About this property

Updated lake cottage right on Damariscotta Lake.

Little Thumb sits on the water's edge on Damariscotta Lake under pine and oak trees. Blueberry bushes line the shore. The cottage is surrounded by water on three sides and looks south down the long part of the lake. The cove to the east is a favorite feeding place for heron, osprey, and bald eagles. Dangle your feet off our private dock, and watch ducks paddle by. Let the loons lull you to sleep.

We offer weekly rentals during the summer. We offer longer and shorter stays in the shoulder seasons. We have wi-fi suitable for working away. This is a seasonal cabin and is not available during the winter months.

The kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms have been totally remodeled. The kitchen has a gas stove, microwave, refrigerator, and center island. The bathroom has a washer and dryer. The living room has a propane stove and full views of the lake. There are two bedrooms with blankets, pillows, and quilts provided. Sheets and bath towels are standard. Please bring your own swim towels.

We have a Webber charcoal grill and grill tools. We have a stone fire pit and grate.

The cabin was originally built on an island but the island is now attached by a causeway. There are only about 10 houses and it feels very private.

Walk or bike along the dirt roads. Kayak or canoe from the dock. Fish in the cove. Or just relax and enjoy the views.

Swim right off our dock. We also have an additional swim float which sets a little deeper. The lake water level does vary but gets deeper beyond the cottage.

We keep two kayaks at the cottage, a 14' Necky Manitou and a 13.5' Perception Catalina, plus two paddles and life vests. You may bring your own kayaks too. Plus you can rent kayaks, canoes, or paddle boards and have them delivered. Please let the life vests drip outside before bringing them inside.

If you wish to rent additional kayaks or a canoe you can make arrangements with MidCoast Kayak in Damariscotta. They will deliver and pick up right from the cottage.

There is a sand beach at Damariscotta Lake State Park, 10 minutes from the cottage.

There is a sand beach and ocean swimming at Pemaquid Beach in New Harbor, about a 1/2 hr from the cottage.

We have a private well so you do not need to bring bottled water to drink or cook with.

Sheet sizes: We have one queen-sized bed and two twins beds.

About the host

Hosted by Natalie Norris

Host profile image
I am the mother of two boys and a girl who are all now grown. My husband and I moved to Maine in 1998 and we raised our family here. I was a math teacher. We all love to hike and kayak and explore. When we can, we like to visit National Parks. We've been to 38 so far!

Why they chose this property

Well, my kids wanted to be on freshwater, so I started looking for cabins around the local lakes. When I first visited this cabin it was well-loved but in rough shape. My realtor didn't like it since there were so many better cabins available. But when we stepped out toward the lake I knew we had a rare gem. Very few houses on the lake can claim to have a southerly view, and here it is! We are also in a more quiet spot.

I'm not afraid of a project and couldn't wait to start. First thing was to get the building level. It had been supported by tree stumps, many of which had rotted away. The floors were as level as six kids hiding under a sheet. After that we squared off the rooms and expanded the kitchen and bathroom. The rest of the renovation was just cosmetic and finding fun things at garage sales and rummage stores.

We enjoy watching and listening to the animals on the lake. We often see osprey, bald eagles, deer, beaver, loons, mallards, fox, turtles, bass, barred owls, red-tailed hawks, cedar waxwing, etc.

The best thing is that it is so private. We feel more isolated than we really are. We are only a few minutes from a town in either direction.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful views. Fishing. Kayaking. Islands. Inlets. Quiet walks. Afternoon breezes off the lake.
