Wake up to panoramic views of the Medomak River at this two-bedroom plus loft Waldoboro retreat—a private waterfront haven with a beautifully remodeled interior, wrap-around deck, and direct access to the river, Muscongus Bay, and the open Atlantic. Enjoy spectacular sunrises and serene moonlit nights from this idyllic perch.
Set amid 11 acres of wildflower meadows and fireflies, this two-level home rests on the western banks of the Medomak River, just five miles south of downtown Waldoboro. You’ll be a short paddle from where the river meets Muscongus Bay, and only 21 miles from the art galleries, restaurants, and scenic breakwater of Rockland. Keep an eye out for bald eagles, ospreys, seals, and other coastal wildlife.
A long private driveway leads to ample parking and a peaceful waterfront setting. Inside, the open living space has been fully remodeled with hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and a wall of windows framing the water. After a day of kayaking, unwind on the comfortable sofa, play cards around the glass coffee table, or stream a movie on the large flatscreen TV. The home offers WiFi, a washer/dryer, and inviting spaces to relax.
The fully renovated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and all the essentials for preparing Maine-inspired meals. Gather at the breakfast bar or six-person dining table, and when the weather’s warm, step outside to grill and dine on the deck while soaking up the stunning views.
Outdoors, spend your days kayaking or canoeing, basking in the sun on the wrap-around deck, or exploring more than 400 feet of private tidal waterfront with Maine’s classic granite rocks and tide pools. Inside, a second sitting room offers the perfect nook for reading or enjoying the coastal breeze through open glass doors.
The home accommodates up to six guests with two bedrooms, a loft, and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The open loft-style primary bedroom overlooks the river and great room below, offering a king bed and private bath. On the main floor, you’ll find one bedroom with a queen bed and another with twin bunk beds—ideal for families or friends traveling together.
Located along scenic Route 1, this property places you in the heart of Midcoast Maine’s natural beauty. Visit nearby Waldoboro’s Main Street for local shops and dining, or follow the river south to the historic Pemaquid Point Lighthouse. Explore downtown Rockland for seaside charm and top-tier dining, including the award-winning restaurant Primo. Camden Hills State Park—known for its panoramic ocean views and vibrant autumn colors—is just 26 miles away. Boothbay Harbor, the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, and even Acadia National Park are within reach for memorable day trips.
Your peaceful Midcoast Maine escape awaits at this beautifully appointed Waldoboro waterfront home—where each sunrise, tide, and breeze reminds you why this place is unforgettable.

The location, home and property was lovely! Great views for morning coffee and evenings. The beds were comfortable and we had a relaxing stay. We also really enjoyed sitting on the rocks by the lake and watching the sunrise. On the downside check in was a challenge as the management co required a separate registration and then texted they were canceling our stay. I called and they corrected this. The kitchen was not cleaned. There were crumbs, old lunch meat on the counter and dirty dishes when we checked in. The floors also were not swept throughout the house under furniture. There was trash in the outside garbage bins from a prior guest that animals had torn into and spread about.

Maine getaway
PROS: We spent eight nights in this modern up-to-date home. After a couple of fits and starts regarding check-in everything went smoothly. The location, while slightly remote, is still only a 15 minute trip to Damariscotta where you will find plenty of restaurants, shopping and even a theater. The large deck and water views were a plus. Happy to see that a railing had been added to the stairway leading to the main bedroom.
CONS: Climate change has made the old adage that you don't need A/C in Maine obsolete. The portable A/C provided was sufficient for the upstairs bedroom but overmatched when cooling the rest of the house. Granted we arrived during a heat wave but a house as lovely as this deserves central air.

Beautiful property in peaceful location
We truly enjoyed our week here! The property and the sunrises are incredible. We had a lot of fun hanging on the deck and down by the river. The house is in a quiet location, but not far from Camden, Rockland and other towns. The only negative was the housekeeping, which was mostly fine, but the trash was full when we got there, and we had to buy some cleaning supplies that we couldn’t find in the house. But overall it was an amazing stay and we would 100% go back!

Great stay - great location
Awesome stay in the PD. Eastman house! Some old flowers were left in the kitchen that attracted a bunch of fruit flies, and the “clean” dishes weren’t very clean, but that was a pretty minor inconvenience. Everything else was very clean and in working condition, and the view was amazing. Would rent again.

Beautiful Home and Location - but issues with cleanliness
My family stayed at this house in early August. We found the house quite comfortable for our group of six, though a bit tight with that number. It is a beautiful home with comfortable seating inside but is notable for its large deck overlooking the water. The location is very private but only a short drive from nearby towns with necessary amenities including grocery stores and quite a few restaurants.
However, we did have some issues with our stay. Though Vacasa promised that the house would be cleaned and sanitized before our arrival (with check-in pushed back to allow for extra cleaning) we arrived to find that the house had not been cleaned. There were clean linens, but the floors were dirty, and the refrigerator was dirty - with bits of food left in it. The counters and stove were dirty and sticky. The outdoor garbage and recycling cans were stuffed completely full leaving us nowhere to put garbage over the weekend. We called Vacasa customer service which arranged for the cleaning person to return and spend time cleaning – though even then the result was less than expected given what was promised amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Their maintenance person did come to remove the excess garbage, as well as replace the propane tank on the grill, which has been left nearly empty. It was frustrating that we had to spend time and make multiple calls to get this all done – especially given the substantial cost of such a rental.
Ultimately our vacation was successful, and we loved the house and the location. But I do not think we will return for a future stay.

Great location. SO beautiful. Beds super comfy. Home really well stocked. Only issues: WiFi not great and heat is in living room so gets all parts of house except 2 downstairs bedrooms if you close the door and then no way to get heat in there and no source inside room. No canoes or kayaks provided. Ring of rocks to make fire down on rocks below house. Lovely!!

Relaxing and beautiful
We were a little worried with how we were pretty secluded with three teenagers but, we had a great time just hanging out, checking out our surroundings and the wild life around the house. We made a couple ventures out to see the lighthouse and have breakfast and get some games.
^Bright in the early mornings (5:00), bring a sleep mask if that will wake you.

Lofty luxury
Beautiful home on the water. Loved exploring the shoreline and watching the sunrise over the water. The home is cozy and has everything you need. King bed in the loft is comfortable but bunk beds are a bit hard for an adult. Only negative might be that people walking in the loft can be heard below in the bedrooms, otherwise our whole family loved it.

The house is beautiful, and the view gorgeous. We enjoyed it very much!
The property is lovely, plenty of places to sit, privacy in bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms. It all worked well for us. The kitchen is a galley, and a bit difficult for group cooking, but well-stocked with dishes and cookware.
We saw some nice wildlife, and enjoyed both low and high tide on the river.
The deck is huge, and so is the grill.

Beautiful house in a perfect setting
I came to this house for a relaxing 30th birthday weekend with a few close friends and it was everything I hoped it would be. Everything about the house, including the drive down to it from the road, was beautiful, and it has a great history too!
It was the perfect size for 6 adults. We especially enjoyed morning coffee out on the giant deck and watching the sunrise down at the water (accessed by a wood staircase).
Since there is no AC, it did get slightly hot in the upstairs loft during the day (end of August), but the provided fans made it comfortable enough. The house was spotless on arrival and the kitchen was stocked with all of the necessary items you'll need while there. We had a bbq one night so it was great to have a propane grill right outside on the deck - just remember to bring the bug spray!
There were a few minor exterior maintenance issues that we noticed: some of the deck chairs were broken and unusable and the top rail of the deck railing was loose on one end causing it to wobble if anyone leaned on it. I realize we were there towards the end of the summer after a steady stream of other guests so they weren't huge issues for us.
One final note - it might be better to just swap out the glass coffee table in the living room for something more solid instead of having the guests put foam pads on the edges. I think even with the foam, all of us still hit into it at some point.

3 Star property for 5 Star price
Quiet, peaceful location. Wildlife all around. Nice deck, well equipped. House was clean and updated. Good wifi, TV, appliances. Beds good, baths adequate. Great views of the River. No air conditioning (as advertised) which makes it nearly unlivable during the summer due to glass wall. It was 80- 90 degrees outside, over 95 degrees inside for part of our stay. Loft has king bed but was even hotter. Fans not nearly enough. Full glass views were nice facing East, but sunrise at 0430 without adequate curtains made for very early bright mornings. Forget sleeping in. House sits on large field but not enough mowed for kids to play. No kayaks/canoes available on the premises as advertised. No firepit. Home is very, very small, pictures made it look bigger. Not really enough space for 2 families, no privacy at all inside. Overall I've been to Maine many times and have stayed in better and worse accommodations. We would not go back to this home, very close quarters and difficult sleeping issues. With some additional amenities and a few corrective changes it could be well above average, but size/privacy are limiting factors.
