The Loon Cottage
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Nestled on the water's edge at the southwest shore of Knickerbocker Lake, The Loon Cottage has a private dock and is surrounded by lush foliage. Enjoy the great outdoors to the fullest by frequenting the lake's shared beach (within 50 yards) with kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards.
Your newly renovated 1,100-square-foot all-season vacation home boasts a floor that takes advantage of the lake views available in every room, not to mention it provides spaces designed to highlight your lakeside location. Custom-built by a husband and wife builder-designer team, The Loon Cottage sports a vaulted ceiling, stone countertops, Italian ceramic tile, Scandinavian-design lighting, and is adorned with original Maine artwork.
Spend your time lounging in the sunroom area which overlooks the water and is the perfect way to begin or end your day. Sip coffee or refreshing cocktails as you indulge in the picturesque landscape. When you're hungry, the modern, fully-equipped kitchen has everything needed to make your favorite meals.
This well-furnished and stylishly decorated home offers the ideal blend of relaxation and comfort for families, friends, or couples.
This cottage can be rented together with The Cedar Lodge, The Brown Cottage, and The Chesuncook Cabin to make The Knickerbocker Lake Cottages.

This is a place for renewal. Tranquil, beautiful, and spacious. The house has everything you need and really comfortable. Brand new everything, yet homey. The views from the windows are amazing. You are right on the lake. Close to trails. Porter’s Preserve is a great hike 1.6 miles away with fantastic views. Kayaking on site. Pinkam’s Market and Hannaford’s for grocery shopping. Boothbay Harbor an easy 6 minute drive. Coastal Maine Botanical Garden- a must- is a 3 min drive. My favor part was sitting on the private dock outside our door drinking tea and hearing the loons beautiful sounds. We will definitely return!

Even had a slight "new" odor when we opened the door
Great location for mid-coast Maine exploration. The lake was beautiful and kayaks/canoe were available to explore as well as a private dock. The fire pit was perfect and saw quite a bit of use.
There's a Hannaford's a couple of miles away along with a large number of restaurants, etc. close by in Boothbay Harbor, Damariscotta, and Wiscasset. There are an immense number of hiking trails in the area in the in various "preserves" along with water activities, shopping, etc.
The house comfortably sleeps 6 with two separate bedrooms downstairs and a cozy upstairs area with two beds for kids or adults. Appliances and furniture were new and higher end and worked well. Bedding and towels were excellent and clean and the house was very well equipped leaving us wanting nothing during the stay.
The place was surgically clean when we arrived-- never actually seen any rental that clean before. I spoke briefly with the owner while there and she was very helpful and friendly. We didn't need anything, but she offered any assistance we needed.
For mid-coast Maine, we'd book this again without hesitation and likely will for next year.
