Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Damariscotta

We chose Jeff's house in Hallowell for our first trip to Maine because it is conveniently located near the Maine Cabin Masters' Kennebec Cabin Company store and Woodshed Restaurant, the town of Hallowell is quaint, and it's easy to get to Waterville, Cape Elizabeth, Portland, and Camden. We visited all of these places and were fortunate to have beautiful weather for late April. While we didn't use the hot tub and only tried the sauna once, we can definitely recommend this house for skiers. I can only imagine how good the sauna and the electric blankets on the comfortable beds would feel after a cold day on the slopes! Jeff is very friendly and provided recommendations. All around great visit and would stay again on our next trip to Maine.

We had a wonderful girl's trip staying in Diana's house! We walked to the beach and to Scratch bakery (twice). The house was perfect for the five of us with a great sitting area to hang out and chat. The house was clean and the instructions for cleaning up were easy to follow.

The home was very welcoming and accommodating for our family of 5. The views were spectacular at sunrise, sunset and during the snowstorm. Bald Eagles and hawks would land in the trees right in front of the house. Also, there was a skating pond down the street my family love to visit almost each evening. There was an alarm going off as soon as we arrived, Debbi was incredibly fast responding and sending someone to check it out clear it up. On the plus someone came and plowed the driveway after the snowstorm it was great. She left a basket of local food and my family ate it up. We are so thankful for our relaxing week and would love to return.

We had a wonderful stay at this Maine house--Barb, the property manager was incredibly responsive, helped with a heating issue while we were there and had the repairs done same day--The house was well equipped with everything you need for a family getaway at the beach! puzzles and games galore, kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed for family meals (including lobster cooking essentials--bibs, crackers, steam pots) Great little fire pit out front which we enjoyed, and fenced in back yard area so pets or kids can be safely contained :) Linens, towels, all clean and provided--truly a wonderful home away from home, perfect for our family trip to the beach!

We had a wonderful stay! The property was exactly as described — clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for everything we needed. What really stood out was Tim’s responsiveness; he was incredibly quick to answer any questions and made sure we felt completely taken care of throughout our visit. It made the experience even more seamless and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Spent the weekend here with friends and really appreciated the host’s hospitality! They accommodated an earlier check in, responded to messages promptly, and the space had comfortable beds and great linens. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This was our 4th year staying at Sandy Cove to celebrate Christmas with our entire family. There are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate overnight stays. We love the 2 dining room tables and refrigerators. We had a small issue with a clog in the kitchen sink. I reached out to Mike and he sent someone over to fix it within a few hours. We hope to stay again next year!

My girlfriends and I had a great weekend at Ned's place! It was peaceful, clean, and extremely close to all the restaurants and attractions of Portland. Ned and Rachael were very communicative and friendly and check-in and check-out were a breeze!

The apartment was just as described by the host, and was very comfortable for a two night stay, for two couples. Excellent, proactive, communication by the host prior to check-in. Very clear instructions. The kitchen was well equipped for breakfast (which is the only meal we ate at the apartment during our stay). A serrated knife would be a nice addition. All of the appliances were very clean, and in good working order. Entry to the building was easy. Be comfortable climbing stairs. Five minute drive, or 15 minute walk to downtown. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Would definitely return, and recommended it to others. Thank you for a nice stay, Susan.

Margaret’s place is very homey with all the necessities for a family gathering. The neighborhood is beautiful and close to beautiful trails

Super walkable and great for a weekend stay!

We had a wonderful time at Diane’s place. Very convenient to Belfast and a great value for the price.

Ian's place was great for a girls trip ti Portland. He was a great communicator if I had any questions or cleaning instructions. Will definitely stay again for any future trips to Portland.

I highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Portland! The apartment was adorable, very clean and in a perfect location. Alex had an entire list of recommendations that we found very helpful! We will definitely be back!

Sadie and Laughlin are the best Airbnb hosts we have come across. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. The apartment is very clean, has lovely furnishings, is nicely decorated and had everything we needed for a very comfortable 3 and a half day stay in Portland. Both bedrooms are a good size and have incredibly comfortable beds. When we needed help with something, our hosts came around fast to help us. If we are ever back in Portland, we shall gladly book again with them. I would highly recommend this apartment!

Very well located apartment, with large living room and bed room, small kitchen and tiny bathroom. Communication with Sharon was easy and responsive.

Easy to find. The description is accurate. The views are breathtaking. I enjoyed waking up early and sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee watching the freshmen start their day and head out on their boats. Great walking area.

The place was beautiful and clean with a great balcony! Access to beach was so easy and so convenient. Thank you for hosting us !!

Great location, great space, great host. A perfect spot for exploring everything in Portland on foot! Deb was great to work with, super responsive, space was quiet and clean and perfect. A Five Star stay for sure!

C’est l’endroit parfait ! Tout est très propre, et il ne manque rien! Kevin est très sympathique. Il a été de bons conseils. J’ai toujours rêvé de venir à OOB l’hiver et j’ai vraiment aimé l’expérience! Nous avons adoré notre séjour. Avec son emplacement et ses portes patios doubles, la vue est splendide! Pour les amateurs du bruit des vagues, de la vue de la mer, des levés de soleil, des longues marches à la plage… c’est l’endroit idéal!

excellent location which made for a lovely stay. very easy to get in and out with no issues whatsoever. Tons of hot water made multiple showers in a row between users a breeze . TV's in every room worked well for those who needed a break from children shows and was a great addition. lovely stay all around and very glad we came!

I had an amazing stay. Place was just as described and was the perfect location for a weekend getaway!

We had the most wonderful time at Pat's place! The cottage is everything you could hope for for a cozy weekend getaway spot - comforting wood smell, slanted ceiling, skylights, and a lofted bed. The place was impeccably clean with beautiful appliances. The bed was one of the comfiest I've ever slept in! Thank you for having us and we would definitely come back!

What a wonderful place in a lovely neighborhood. The condo exceeded our expectations—it was even more beautiful in person. We had a comfortable, happy stay with our small children. Scratch Bakery and an ice cream parlor are right across the street! And the book collection was great. Highly recommend!
