Photos and Description of this Damariscotta holiday 2 bedrooms when including Loft, fold out futon, 1 bathroom, sleeps 5-6

This cozy cottage is situated twenty feet from the shoreline of quiet Dyer Long Pond in Jefferson, ME. Newly remodeled in 2003, this quiet retreat offers a rustic pine interior with all the amenities needed to enjoy your Maine vacation. Near the lower half of the lake, the cottage is nestled in dense pine and oak trees. The lake is quiet with very little power boating and is more geared towards canoeing and kayaking. It is a nature lovers spot with good chances of siting ospreys, bald eagles, beavers, turtles, loons, and many other bird species. The cottage is 15-min from the Mid-coast of Maine. Explore Damariscotta and the Penobscot bay areas for antiquing and outdoor pursuits. Sheepscott golf course is 15 minutes. Close to area lighthouses and maritime museums, Pemaquid point is 27 miles. Please call me or email me for more pictures. I can send them too you via e-mail quickly.

A quiet, cozy vacation spot in Maine

LindaJ4452 North Dartmouth, MA
Review Submitted: September 6, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I've spent the last two summers vacationing at this Cottage close to the coast of Maine. Even in the middle of the busy summer months like July and August the lake is very quiet and peaceful. I love the birdwatching from the shore as well as while kayaking. I've seen loons, bald eagles, ospreys to name a few. Kayaking is superb as there are many coves to explore and the lake is often as smooth as glass. The owner has left many books of local interest, as well as nature books and also some DVD's. These come in handy on those cool rainy days when you just want to cozy up by the warm fireplace. It's also dog friendly, my golden retriever Casey never gets enough of the place. I definately recommend this rental to anyone and plan to return in the years to come.

Great set-up and location, quiet and comfortable

GreyhoundFamily Boston, MA
Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Me, my husband and my greyhound just spent a week at this house and had a fabulous time. Communication with the owner was excellent beforehand, and he was great about answering all of my nit-picky questions.

The location is perfect, very far from the main road. There are some other houses in close proximity, but the pond is very underpopulated...there are maybe 6 houses on the entire pond. Most people are swimming, kayaking, canoeing and fishing on the pond...only one small motor boat the entire time we were there. It's a 20 minute drive to Damariscotta where you can do all of your grocery shopping, fish buying, ice cream eating, and more. We also took the 50 minute drive to Camden which was a nice day trip. Kayaks are provided and at 3 miles long, it's easy to explore the entire pond. We couldn't find any life-jackets, so I'm not sure if those are provided.

Furnishings are simple and clean. All of the amenities we needed were provided: gas grill, pots, pans, microwave, toaster, sheets, etc. The tv gets no reception, so bring some DVD's, books, and music for entertainment.

Bring a lot of bug spray!!! Near the house it's not very bad, but if you have to get up at 6am and walk the dog, you will be eaten alive!

Cottage at Dyer Long Pond is the Best

RevLina New York Metro Region
Review Submitted: August 28, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
I'm been staying at this cottage every summer for the last 4 years and hope to be back again next summer. This is a little slice of heaven.

It's quiet, rustic and beautiful, but with all of the amenities a city-dweller needs to be comfortable.

The newest owner is very nice and always professional. A pleasure to deal with.

The nearby towns offer much to do and locals are extremely helpful and welcoming. You'll start to think about moving up there before the week is out.

By far the best thing about this place is the lake itself. It's pristine. You spend hours swimming or canoing about and never tire of it.

As a final thought, I'm disabled and use a cane or walker to get around. I have no trouble navigating the cabin or the incline into the lake.

Caroline, a happy renter
