"Location was perfect and Lynn was so helpful. We’d definitely stay here again!"

"The cottage was wonderful and David was very welcoming. Everything we needed with great views and close to town. There is something special about watching a gorgeous sunrise from bed. The gas fireplace made the livingroom cozy in the chilly fall weather."

"Another lovely stay at Maine Bed & Boat in Damariscotta. Highly recommended!"

"The captain’s house is on a beautiful street full of stately old homes and just a 10 minute walk across the bridge to Damariscotta. The house is roomy and comfortable and has a gorgeous front porch where you can sit and watch the people passing by and look out over the river. We love it there. This is our fourth stay."

"All in all a pleasant place to stay; a bit noisy at night from the bands at the wharf and from early am truck traffic but private and close to shops & restaurants. The "easy chairs" are not so easy to get out of and too soft for back support for people who read a lot of books, but that's a minor quibble. We'd happily stay there next September if we can."

"If you want a fun glamping experience on a boat, I can't recommend Mazu enough! The location is fantastic, with live music close by and fresh lobster just steps away. The harbor offers a classic Maine vibe—truly a quintessential Maine experience! While Mazu is a bit older, it was comfortable and clean, making it ideal for our two-night stay. I can't wait for a longer visit next time! Thanks for a wonderful stay!"
