Vacationing in Mid Coast Maine

Editors note: Here's another in our continuing series of guest blogs.  Today we hear from Anita Palsgrove of our sister company Newcastle Square Vacation Rentals.

Summer is beginning to unfold in the Damariscotta Region and we're busy at Newcastle Square Vacation Rentals preparing for the arrival of a new season of vacationers. Just in case you're worrying about what to do with your out of state guests or visiting family members we want you to know that it's not too late to find a great vacation spot!  We have wonderful vacation cottages with good weeks still available - all you need to do is direct them to us and we'll do the rest!

We have the largest inventory of vacation rental properties in Lincoln County, spread nicely across the Damariscotta and Pemaquid Region with lots of choices in size and price.

  Although most of our Lakefront cottages are already under contract, we've recently added several new properties with wonderful amenities and great waterfront locations - and good open dates!

On the Saltwater side we can also offer a good selection of available properties - many with prime season dates still open. (Our Saltwater Owners are notorious for holding out weeks for their families and then returning those weeks to the Availability List at the last minute.)

We also represent several charming intown properties within an easy walk to our most popular restaurants, the shopping district, cybercafes and our wonderful Damariscotta Town Landing.  It's truly a "village" experience.

Or maybe you're worrying about what to do with those guests after the obligatory lobster dinner? A week can be a long time!

What to do? What to do?  The Area Information section of our website is filled with links to all sorts of activities. There's always shopping, but what about local antiques auctions?  What about a village or church fair? Art shows? Ice Cream Socials?  Strawberry Festivals? The Lobster Festival?  Or, our own Oyster Festival?  How about world class musical performances?  Or, local stage productions?  We have great Agricultural Fairs (including the Maine State Blueberry Festival and the Windsor Apple Festival). We even have the largest organic farming "Celebration of Rural Life" in New England during the Common Ground Fair in September.  Would they enjoy an afternoon on a lobster boat?  Or a scenic helicopter ride? Or a day trip to Monhegan Island?  What about Puffin watching?  We can match you up with Kayak trips, point you to Canoe Rentals on the Pemaquid River (featured in the April Edition of Downeast Magazine), museums, golf, charter sailboats or give you trail maps to some of the most amazing conservancy property you'll find anywhere. And there's still more to do!

Of course you could always hang out at the Pemaquid Lighthouse, or the Beach or the hammock on your rental property.

Maybe your friends should think about two weeks?  You should call us!

And if your travels to Maine will only allow a short stop in our area, please drop in to our office at the top of Main Street, and take a look at our possible rentals for your next visit. (If you come to Maine once, you'll come back again and again.)

Maybe we can help with a transitional "testing the waters" furnished winter rental?  Or maybe you'll fall in love with this Region and want a longer term rental while you start looking at local real estate?

We truly believe that Great Vacations Begin Here!
