* 'This house was perfect for us! It worked out very well for our children who really enjoyed themselves. The 'info-binders' were our bible for the week. A great idea! Our son and daughter enjoyed seeing the horses every day. Thanks for your hospitality.'
* 'We are in vacation heaven. What a great cottage, what a great area to visit. Hope to see you next year too!'
* 'It was just what we were looking for! Peace, quiet and seclusion, comfortable house and great weather'
* 'Thank you for letting us stay in such a lovely house- what a wonderful setting on the lake! We love the open space, all green and sunny, and had many dips in the lake-lovely and cool, but not freezing. This is our second year on Biscay Pond and we look forward to coming again. Can't beat the wonderful Pemaquid scenery, good food and friendly people.'
* 'We had one of our best vacations ever in this beautiful spot. Your home was bright, fresh & extremely comfortable.'
A poem from a guest
It's Saturday and to our dismay
We must take leave from Cottage Biscay
It's been a week of non-stop fun,
Biking, boating and lying in the sun!
Our hosts Karl & Mary were simply great
And our kids enjoyed staying up late!
We'll miss the lonely cry of the loon
And the warm pond that beckoned -
morning night and noon!
Even as we load up the car,
We watch the animals, Sandy and Star.
As we close up the cottage and shut the door
We can't wait to come back in 2004!

Just what I wanted from a quick unplanned trip to a lake in Maine near Damariscotta.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2024
This camp is well stocked and comfortable with a large yard extending through the trees down to a nice waterfront on Biscay pond. Part of the expansive yard is open with a nice fire pit while another part is shaded with large trees down to the lakeside. The camp itself is very cozy with a nice open kitchen, a front deck great for enjoying the lake view and a nice enclosed side porch with comfortable furnishings. The large master bedroom is stunning with an open beamed cathedral ceiling and a large bank of windows overlooking the lake. The smaller bedroom is cozy and comfortable. The camp sits back from the lake but the lakeside has chairs for sitting and a small dock and float. We were there in the cooler fall so we did not swim, but the lake looks clear and inviting.
We love the mid-coast area of Maine and this location is perfect. Near-by Damariscotta has several very good restaurants and shops to explore. It is close to our favorite lobster wharf in Round Pond and an easy drive to other classic Maine coastal locations (i.e. Pemaquid, Boothbay Harbor, etc.) . We return to Maine every year, either summer or fall, and would return here again when we don’t have a larger extended family group with us.
And yes, the sunsets across the lake are stunning.

Sounds of loons and nighttime owls, even indoors as well as over dinner on the deck. We rented kayaks which we could put in right there and paddle either direction on the beautiful pond, away from tourist sounds. This peninsula, the Pemaquid, is an ideal location, just 1-1/4 hrs from the Portland Airport, and a world apart, in lovely lobster-coves Maine. Mary Berger, your hostess is The Best, and you ‘ll love everything about her and this rental house.
