Email this listing to a friend
This charming and rustic cabin, on Lake Damariscotta, is vintage Maine. It was built in the 1920’s, a place families could come to fish, swim, play and relax. The cabin is only a few steps from the lake and is a perfect place for families to retreat from the crowds and pressure of everyday life. The cabin sits in a grove of trees on a slight outcropping of land near the widest part of the lake, where the water deepens quickly (reaching 114 feet) making it ideal for fishing and swimming. The buildings sit close to the water, with a 165 sq. ft screened porch offering beautiful views of the lake, the far shore and the stunning sunsets. The lawn provides plenty of space for shuffleboard, barbeques and relaxing. The dock is ideal for swimming and boating. There are three bedrooms one with a king bed, one with a queen bed and one with two twin beds.
Today, Lake Damariscotta is one of central Maine's most pristine lakes. Available at the cabin are canoes, kayaks, sailboats while motorboats for water skiing may be rented in the area and moored off shore. FISHING The Native American word which gives Lake Damariscotta its name means “abundance of little fishes.” The lake sports Brown and Lake Trout, Coho Salmon, Northern Pike, Pickerel, Smallmouth Bass and White Perch, among others. It is popular with fisherman. In the summer, fishermen find salmon in the deep trench that is several hundred yards off our beach
Lapping water and the haunting cry of the loons will lull visitors to sleep after long chats by a fire, and a day of swimming, fishing and boating. Other daytime activities may include a visit to the sandy beach in Jefferson a mile down the lake in Damariscotta Lake State Park for hiking, bird-watching, picnicking and water sports. If visitors are inclined to leave Sunset Lodge's lakeside peace, Camden, Rockland, Boothbay, Augusta and Bath, where you will find antiques, arts, crafts, and museums, are all close by. One can also follow the lake down to the Damariscotta River and on to the Salt Bay and ocean beyond. On the Pemaquid Peninsula, a half hour's drive away, you will find the Pemaquid Light House with its Fishermen's Museum and the picturesque yachts of Christmas Cove. You can eat lobsters on the deck at Shaw's Fish & Lobster Wharf and look out on the working lobster boats moored in New Harbor. Visitors may also enjoy the picturesque village of Damariscotta for shopping, eating theater, and music concerts at the Roundtable Center of the Arts. Craft fairs and auctions are commonplace in Mid-coast Maine. But at the end of the day you will be happy to return to the peace and quiet of the lakeside cabin. Damariscotta Lake and the lakeside cabin still capture the hearts of those who vacation here, as they have done for nearly a century.
