Wonderful Cottage and Location

The cottage was clean with plenty of space for me and my family to relax and play inside and out. Our kids especially liked swimming and canoeing down at the lake. The hosts were very responsive the couple of times we had questions during our 6-night stay.

Peaceful vacation home

Good communication with Jaja and helpful info from Dave upon our arrival. An amazing post and beam home that was comfortable and cozy. Away from the “crowd” but only a short drive to the restaurants and shops in Damariscotta. Pemiquid Point was nearby and breakfast at the Seagull, overlooking the ocean, was great. The house was clean and had everything needed for our stay.

Comfy, secluded, and peaceful

We loved our week at Jaja's cozy lake house. It feels like a cabin but it's got all the amenities you'll need (the actual house is brighter and more spacious than it appears in the photos). Biscay Pond is perfect for paddling, fishing, swimming, and stargazing. Supermarket, Damariscotta, and the coast are all easy drives away.

Lovely, cozy with lots to do!

The cottage was clean and comfortable. The lake was so much fun to swim in and we enjoyed hiking, eating at the local restaurants, biking, hunting for rocks, picking berries in the yard and relaxing in the quiet. We will be back! JaJa have greatest suggestions and made us feel that this was our home.

Beautiful Property

The house was beautiful, very clean and well appointed. The property was gorgeous and we enjoyed seeing the animals and walking the property. We enjoyed fishing in Biscay pond and the beautiful sound of the loons at night. It was a short ride to the Pemaquid lighthouse and to Camden for some sightseeing daysThe owners were available and greeted us warmly. We would absolutely return.

Lovely Waterfront Environment

The 5 acre location of this cottage was outstanding with water views through the trees and a spacious interior. Water access is good and use of a canoe allows for lazy paddling on Biscay Pond. The peace and quiet on the property makes you want to stay put and not bother with anything beyond. But we did find time to venture out to some of our favorite midcoast locations.

A Lovely Home

We traveled to this cabin as an extended family. Our daughter, son and law, and two grand daughters joined my husband and myself for one week at JaJa and David’s cabin. The weather for the week was in and out, giving us two sunny days and the rest rainy. But we found good things to do and had great fun together. One thing to be noted is that this home is not really handicapped friendly. There is a wooded path that leads down to the water, which is well prepared for walking but hard for a person that is unsteady on their feet.

Great Stay

We had a wonderful week at the Lake House. It is a rustic cottage, well appointed with all cooking items needed in the kitchen. It is very clean! JaJa is eager to please and checked in with us by stopping by and by email. She left items we requested....some beach towels, on our porch after an email request. My only suggestion may be to add a dock ladder so it's easier to get back on the dock after jumping in! We made some lovely, old fashion vacation memories. It was wonderful. Love that there is no TV. Internet it available and works well. No washer and dryer, just FYI. It was easy to run to town and do a load of laundry. Thanks so much!

Perfect Maine Getaway Cottage

We had a fabulous time at Jaja and Dave’s Lakefront cottage. Jaja is the best VRBO Host I have ever had. She went above and beyond and helped me out tremendously with my stay at her place. She was very prompt and responsive to all of my messages prior to booking and once I arrived. The property is amazing and I loved all of the wildlife on the Preserve. We saw porcupines, a fox and turtles laying eggs. I am a birder and I loved birding on her property and saw over 30 species. The Song sparrows, Common Yellow-throats and Red-eyed Vireos sang every time I went out the door. I loved hearing the Common Loons in the evening and seeing them in their breeding plumage was spectacular - we even saw them when we took out the canoe available with the property on Biscay Pond. The new deck and staircase crafted by Dave were spectacular and my husband admired his woodworking skills. The house was well-stocked with everything we needed and it was close enough to Damarascotta to go grocery shopping and get basic needs at Reny’s. Jaja also recommended Muscongus Lobster Pound and the Lobster Coop in Round Pound and both were excellent for bringing cooked lobster dinners home to eat – Jaja has the lobster crackers you need to crack and eat the whole lobsters. This is a perfect location for a relaxing Maine getaway.

Zero complaints. Beyond expectations.

This property was exactly what myself, husband, and two daughters needed. A short sweet walk down a beautiful path to the water where we fished, swam and canoed all day! The house was VERY clean (I’m a bit of a clean freak so I brought some of my own cleaning product in case because you never know…it needed nothing before unpacking and making ourselves at home)! The linens were fresh, the counter tops and floors were spotless, it was like coming home. The owner was super nice as she met us on the property and gave us a quick welcome, lots of suggestions of things to do and left her number in case we needed her. Zero complaints. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
