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.

Great location
This is our second year vacationing on MAZU. We love the easy access to good restaurants and shopping. Also a nearby restaurant has live music during happy hour so we had that as a bonus as we relaxed on the boat. The owners are great!! Although we had an issue with the plumbing this year, Chip responded quickly and resolved the problem. We are hoping to stay on the MAZU again next summer.

Unique Accommodations
We totally enjoyed our weekend stay in Damariscotta. The houseboat accommodations were awesome. Olga, the property manager, was exceptional. We will return. Great location….a short walk to all of the downtown restaurants and shops of Damariscotta and Newcastle. Wonderful place to experience Maine!

Great place for two couples to stay
It was more spacious than I expected based on the photos. Nice location for a quiet, lowkey, pretty getaway. Recommend doing the oyster and wine pairing boat cruise if you can really enhanced the experience. Great hosts.

Nice spot but toilet problems
We reported problem and did not take showers because we didn’t want it to overflow. I had to call and they said it was fixed. Same thing the next night.
