7 Bedroom House in Damariscotta

The Yellow House is a magnificent old family summer home overlooking the Damariscotta Harbor, perfect for a classic Maine vacation or family reunion. We welcome guests at The Yellow House from Memorial Day through September and close the summer home for the winter. At any time during the year, guests will have the privacy of being the only guests at the property.
The property has a unique blend of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Enjoy a quiet sunset over the water from the large, West-facing porch, steps away from Damariscotta’s charming downtown.
A massive sloping lawn flanked by mature trees provide cover for noise and sight-lines creating a sense of seclusion, despite the proximity to town. A quick two minute walk down a quiet side-street provides access to Damariscotta’s restaurants, shops, galleries, and bars, a local movie theater, and a lovely bookstore. Pop out for a coffee and pastries in the morning, grab a lobster roll for lunch, enjoy renowned Pemaquid Oysters and a beer at Schooner Landing in the evening, or take a walk after dinner for an ice cream cone.
The house has wonderful character and has been a gathering place for families for decades. There is a large kitchen/pantry (updated appliances) that opens up to a central sitting room perfect for morning coffee, card games, or relaxing throughout the day as people come and go from the home. There is a large dining room that can seat up to 14 people, open to a living room with a big leather sofa and 4 sitting chairs. The waterfront backyard offers an ideal venue for lawn games: whiffle ball, bocce, and croquet.
The area boasts a long list of summer activities, including kayaking and boating in town, shopping in Damariscotta or nearby Boothbay, lakes, beaches, fishing and golf. Take an easy day trip to Freeport, Camden or Monhegan Island.
We hope you enjoy this relaxing retreat as much as we do.

Summary: Property location was great and 1 minute walk to downtown. Plenty of bedrooms and nice deck overlooking the Damariscotta River. 20 minutes to Pemaquid Beach and Boothbay Harbor. A few issues with appliances but owner is very responsive.

Wonderful location; two minute walk to Reny’s and other cute shops…as well as incredible restaurants. The host is delightful and very accommodating. We plan to return next summer for another cherished family vacation.

Summary: We enjoyed the time we spent in the yellow house. It is big and roomy with plenty of space for spreading out. The backyard down to the water is huge and tge kids loved spending most of the day out there. The house is well stocked with dishes, cooking supplies, sheets, towels, utensils, cribs, high chairs,… Everything for children of every age. We ate all our meals out on the back porch with a wonderful view of the sun on the water. Additionally, it was a short block to town which made it very easy to walk over and get whatever you needed. We hardly needed a car! This is a great place for families!

Summary: Our extended family of 10 stayed for a week. Plenty of sleeping options to choose from. The house is old and shows it's age but I think it is the way it should be. Can't beat the location !!! One block from Main St Damariscotta and right on the river with a great view of the classic Maine boats. Everyone that went LOVED it. Lots of cool towns within an hour of the house.

Summary: We stayed in this house with our children and grandchildren and it was perfect! The kitchen space was amazing, there were rooms for the children to play in, for adults to read in, to spend quiet time in… There was even a space for my daughter-in-law to do work during the week. The outside covered deck with lights and fans was spectacular. We ate all our meals out there! And the water! It was absolutely amazing. This house is a real find!

Summary: Held more people than we realized, those who thought they'd be sharing were thrilled to have their own rooms. Back porch was big enough to have dinner. Great spot to hang out. Beautiful view, right on the river. Very close to town center, could walk to shopping and restaurants. Supermarket a very short drive.

Summary: The Yellow House was the perfect location for our family reunion. It allowed us to quickly reach Pemaquid lighthouse, Pemaquid Beach, and Boothbay Harbor. The town of Damarascotta is wonderful as well. The house was clean and well-stocked with all the essentials. Hopefully, we can return.

Summary: We loved to be just a short walk from downtown Damariscotta and a short drive to Booth Bay. Great food and some neat things to do in Damariscotta such as the Oyster Boat ride up the river. Booth Bay is great to stroll around or visit some of the many attractions. The house was plenty big for our large group. We had a couple issues but Caroline was very responsive and addressed them quickly. I thought the cleaning crew could have done a little better job cleaning the floors but I think Caroline will address this as she did everything else. We would look forward to staying there again.

Summary: I've rented a number of vacation homes in Maine, and this one far exceeded our expectations. From its spaciousness and location to the little touches that felt like home, the house is amazing. The kitchen was extraordinarily well supplied, and we spent many happy hours cooking and eating on the wonderful, huge covered porch watching the boats go by. The area, of course, has endless things to do for all ages. There was a Covid-related issue with the house that delayed our check-in, and we were very impressed with Caroline's response and the ways she found to compensate us for the inconvenience. She was in frequent contact with us until we were settled in. An extraordinary host for an extraordinary house.
