Damariscotta B&B holds Open House

    The fabulous Oak Gables Bed and Breakfast will be holding an open house celebration this Sunday, October 29, from 1 to 3 in the afternoon.

   If you have ever stayed at Oak Gables you know what a wonderful Bed and Breakfast it is. Located on 11 acres overlooking the Damariscotta River and within walking distance of the Village,  Oak Gables features a stately Main House with several over night rooms and a separate river view apartment. There are two apartments available in the Carriage House and a wonderful, private cottage that sits away from the house. There is also a Boat House at the rivers edge with a small game room and a deck that looks like the perfect spot to spend a summer afternoon with a good book.

   At one time the owner, Martha Scudder, ran a highly regarded pre school in the Main House and is affectionately known to a generation of local children as "Miss Martha". Now, she is better known for her breakfast muffins and the peaceful oasis she has created here.

   If you have never stayed at Oak Gables or have always wondered what was behind the stone pillars at the end of Pleasant Street, don't miss this chance! Refreshments will be served and I'm told there are some great door prizes!
