Steps to Your Private 100 Feet of Lake Front - $800/Week

Welcome to Biscay Pond- an undiscovered peaceful 3 mile lake where you can be the only boat for most of the day (M-F) and just a few more on the weekends. From your own dock you can explore over 28 miles of fresh water lakes and rivers in your canoe or kayak - power boats can navigate Biscay and Pemiquid lakes. This location is a kayak paradise. If the fresh water is not enough you can take a short ride to the ocean and explore the endless miles of ocean rivers and islands.

Within minutes you can drive to Damariscotta for full shopping and entertainment. Minutes in the other direction and you on the ocean.
Relax and just watch the water from the closed in porch or the patio in the front yard or enjoy many water activity.

Warning - it's quiet at night- many people have trouble getting out of bed in the morning. Mid coast Maine is a paradise of fresh and salt water lakes and rivers- you could spend a lifetime trying to visit or fish them all.

VERY RUSTIC
It was very difficult for me to be in the situation with no Internet and much too far to drive into town every time I needed it. I also didn’t realize that he didn’t supply linens and towels so well though the location was gorgeous those were too big problems for me I really don’t know if I mentioned that on the online booking but I was taken by surprise. The place was a little funky for my taste

Linens should have been automatically included and the linens they ended up supplying could have been nicer. I also think that putting the trash in the trash can should have been enough rather than taking it to the dump. Torn, dilapidated furniture could have been nicer. Not sure about the reason for the old musty books. Nice deck over the lake, TV worked. Close to town.

Perfect location
We really enjoyed our stay. It was just two of us and our dog that loves the water and swam everyday. Kayaking was wonderful and we also caught fish right off the dock! The only thing that I would warn others about are the steep steps thst could be a problem for the very young or elderly. Overall great week!!!

Fabulous view and a great location on the lake! Campy but extremely clean. A rustic property that was a perfect getaway for the 2 of us! The host provided us with lots of detailed instructions and recommendations and was quick to respond to all our questions!

Living the lobster life
The cottage is a throw back to the 50's and 60's. Very vintage, very retro and the most peaceful week that we have experienced in a very long time. We didn't have internet service so we went to the coffee shop in Damariscotta and enjoyed that quaint little village. All in all we will go back and hopefully spend more time enjoying the BEAUTIFUL view and watching the world go by. By the way the lobsters were WONDERFUL and Bill gave us a few places to go to that the locals go to,thanks Bill.
