We had a great stay at the Coach House. The accommodations were cozy & clean. Comfortable amenities and a beautiful setting. Karen and Keith were super responsive and welcoming hosts.

Ideal place to stay for exploring mid-coast Maine. Super, super clean, spacious and comfortable. Great space for cozying up in front of the gas fireplace while relaxing on the couch with a good book. Thanks Karen and Kevin for your hospitality.

You won't regret staying at the Coach House in Waldoboro, NH. Keith and Karen are excellent hosts and attend to every detail. The Coach House offers everything you need and is well equipped. Very comfortable---just like a home away from home should be. We'll be back for sure!

This place was a gem and exactly what we were looking for. On a quiet road, away from more bustling areas, it was the perfect place for us to truly relax and just get away. The fact that the property backs up to a large park meant that we could take a 2 hour hike without driving anywhere. Keith and Karen have thought of everything and outfitted the apartment to keep you comfortable regardless of the weather. They're great resources about activities, attractions, and resources in the area. When we go back to Maine, we're checking to see if the coach house is available first.

Second floor, well decorated, comfortable and quiet. Easy driving distance to popular areas of interest. Best beach is Crockett's beach in Owl's Head. Beautiful coastline. Great seafood everywhere. Loved The Slipway Restaurant.

We were delighted with our stay in the Coach House the first week of August 2023. Karen and Keith are friendly and gracious hosts who made sure we had everything we needed, and more: the first night we had a glitch in the kitchen sink, and Karen came over to fix it. Keith and I had a fun, long conversation about their vintage automobiles. They gave us two passes for the Owls Head Transportation Museum car and plane show, a typical gesture of their kindness. The Coach House is on the second floor of their barn. It has two bedrooms with comfortable beds, and each room has an overhead fan. The kitchen has the necessities: plates, silverware, refrigerator, stove, microwave, Keurig coffee maker (with several complimentary pods), a toaster, pots and pans — we even found a tub of bread crumbs, mayo, ketchup, and mustard; the only item we didn’t find was olive oil (can’t fault that). The living room has two comfortable arm chairs and a couch, a Roku television, a DVD player, and a nice collection of films (including Forrest Gump, which we enjoyed watching). Waldoboro is near Rockland, home of the Farnsworth Museum (with many works of Andrew Wyeth, among others). New Harbor is half an hour away; we ate lobsters at Shaw’s, and took a boat ride to a nearby rock island where puffins nest. Our stay in the Coach House was wonderful; it is a great home base, and a very comfortable home. Our hosts were magnificent. We would absolutely stay there again, and highly recommend it.

The Coach House was a perfect spot for our Maine vacation. Easy access to all the quaint Mid-Coast Towns, hiking trails, and the water (ocean, rivers, and ponds!). It was wonderful to come back to such a serene and lovely spot at the end of each day. Our dog loved it too -- so many good smells and places to romp and swim! Karen and Keith were excellent hosts - available and responsive and also extremely respectful. The house had just about everything you could want but wasn't over crowded or cluttered. It was surprisingly spacious and very comfortable to hang out in. We give this rental two thumbs and one paw up!

Despite not having the best weather, we enjoyed our visit to. We have stayed here multiple times, property is very welcoming and comfortable.

This apartment is lovely. Very cosy. The bed was very comfortable. It is located near Damariscotta, which is a great year round town. It is also near delanos, a fish market with decent prices and very fresh fish. Proably the best thing about this property is the owners. They are very nice and were so helpful. I can highly recommend this property.

We stayed here for a month while getting our home ready and everything about the coach house was lovely. Keith and Karen did a beautiful job creating a warm space and it was a delight to stay there. They were a joy to interact with and very responsive. We loved our time at the Coach House. My mom also stayed with us at the beginning and I feel like every conversation we have she gushes about how special of a place it was

Hosts were accommodating. Nice, cozy stay. Would recommend.

Wonderful property. Great hosts. Ideal location for midcoast exploring.

This is the second trip to the Coach House. Waldoboro is our favorite spot in Maine and luck has it we have fallen in love with the Coach House. This is by far the best place to stay. . It is relaxing and comfortable. Everything you need. ( including dog biscuits). Just like home. Its a well organized beautiful hidden treasure . Including friendly and thoughtful hosts.

First of all, Keith & Karen were gracious & generous hosts. In regard to the Coach House, it was all it was said to be--& was pictured as being--on VRBO. It was a great place for my wife & me to unwind & renew our spirits. And what a perk it is that the trail to the Peters Pond Preserve leaves from the back of the property. While the Coach is semi-remote, it is within driving range of sites to the north, such as the Penobscot Marine Museum in Searsport, & sites to the south, such as the Portland Head Lighthouse. It truly was a magic place.

The house and property are just as pictured. Karen and Keith were communicative and very friendly. The house was very clean and had the essentials. When I asked Karen about an additional pot for cooking she dropped a brand new one off the following day! My family and I enjoyed the walk down to Peter's Pond and a private path starts right outside the back door. We brought our dog and he gave the house and property 5 wags of his tail. He especially enjoyed the dog treats that were left for him.

The Coach House is a comfortable and lovely home that can serve as a homebase for a variety of mid-coast Maine experiences. It's location on the edge of the preserve lands and close proximity to the river/bay make it an ideal vacation spot. Peter's Pond in the preserve is the crown jewel of the preserve lands and was an idyllic and peaceful place to swim, birdbwatch and relax. Karen and Keith are attentive and available without being at all intrusive and do all they can to help their guests enjoy staying at the Coach House. We would return in a heartbeat!

My husband and I spent six weeks at The Coach House in June-July 2022 while we waited for the completion of renovations to our house. The Coach House is a perfect location to wind down from everyday routines and enjoy the natural beauty of Maine’s coast at your own pace. My spouse and I found it ideal for the two of us, but it could have accommodated two couples for a shorter visit. The house is comfortably furnished and tastefully decorated. The location is a perfect launching pad for visits to traditional Maine coast fishing villages like Friendship, Damariscotta, New Harbor, Round Pond, Pemaquid, and Booth Bay. You will be a short drive from the location where Rachel Carson wrote « Silent Spring. ». Staying at the property gives you access across your hosts’ property through beautiful fields leading down to the shores of the serene Medomak River. Your hosts, Karen and Keith, could not be more welcoming, helpful and responsive to any concerns you might have (we had none, but Karen and Keith were eager to ensure that was true). The house was well supplied with household basics when we arrived. And, if you decide to bring your canine companion, you will find the location to be a perfect place for dog walking and games of fetch. Our little fur baby just could not get enough of racing around the property chasing every one of her vast collection of balls! We wish all future guests at the Coach House as restful and pleasant a time as we had.

We were able to stay in the Coach House for about 2 months early this year. My wife & I both work remotely and the Coach House was perfect for this - it has several different rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, strong Wifi, and a generator that kicks on automatically in case of a power outage. We loved staying just across the street from the Medomak River with coastal breezes making it very comfortable, even on the hotter days. Peter's Pond preserve is a beautful hike right out of the backyard of the Coach House - we even saw a bald eagle soaring over the pond! Most of all, we would highly recommend Keith & Karen as hosts - they were very easy to work with, great communicators, and incredibly helpful with anything we needed throughout our stay. We've recently moved to the area and they made us feel very much at home in Waldoiboro!

I share the sediment of others that I almost didn’t review the place because I want to keep it a secret it’s that nice! I couldn’t say nicer things about the house - so comfortable and well thought out. My fiancé requested I include that this property is big people friendly, as someone whose 6’5 he doesn’t always find rentals he’s comfortable in (let alone that he fits in the shower) but he felt like home here! It has everything you need. I’m unsure who loved the property more us or our dogs. The owners were equally as perfect; checked in and were always very responsive and respectful of privacy! If you stay moodys is a must - just up the road with other good restaurants.

We enjoyed our stay in Waldoboro, a quiet spot perfectly located to explore coastal Maine. Property is super dog friendly but certainly not to the point where a non-dog person wouldn't be comfortable. Hosts are right a across the street and always quick to respond if needed. We can only agree with all the previous reviews.

Love the location and the region. If you are in Midcoast with a dog or two, this is the only place I recommend staying. We've been here three times over the years. We've been coming to Maine for vacation for the past eight years, and this is the best place I've found.

The Carriage House is in a lovely, quiet location. It is beautifully designed and decorated for comfort and convenience. Hiking trails accessible from the driveway, other trails nearby, lovely walk to the river, plenty of outdoorsy stuff for us old folks and our border collie. But the comfy furniture and well-equipped tv for streaming made our stay a delight even on rainy days. Five stars.

Comfortable Dog Friendly Property!

We LOVED our stay at the coachhouse! It was a remote school and work trip so high speed internet was a must--it worked perfectly and my husband and two sons were able to easily attend school and work calls. Karen and Keith were also very accommodating in shifting our dates back slightly in light of Hurricane Henri making landfall right when we were supposed to be arriving. The apartment was so comfortable--wonderful kitchen and bathroom, huge TV, and incredibly comfortable furniture! In addition, the location of the coachhouse was excellent. The tidal Medomak River and gorgeous Peter's Pond are steps away, not to mention all of the cute midcoast towns like Damariscotta, Boothbay Harbor, Wiscasset and Rockland. We couldn't have been happier with our stay and hope to be back someday!!! Thanks so much, Karen and Keith!

We had a great stay at the Coach House on Dutch Neck. The hosts are wonderful and go to great lengths to make their guests comfortable and manage the property in a professional manner. You can expect top notch communication, an ultra clean and well-appointed space with quality furnishings and everything you’ll need for a relaxing Mid-Coast getaway. Direct access to the Peters Pond Preserve Trail is a big bonus. Highly recommend!

The coach house is located in a quiet neighborhood . There are SO many hikes and areas to spend out doors. Karen and Keith are just wonderful people. They are there to help if needed, offer suggestions and are very welcoming to travelers. This stay really needs a 10 Star rating!

Highly recommend! This is an excellent mid-coast option. Quiet surroundings but only a few miles from Route1. The house is relatively new and has all expected amenities (no A/C, but it’s not really needed). A real bonus is that the property is adjacent to the Peter’s Pond Wildlife Preserve, and there is a short trail from the driveway that leads to a loop trail (less than 2 miles) through the woods. In front of the house, it’s possible to walk through a field to a tidal portion of the Medomak River. Wifi is strong and reliable at the house. Surprisingly, mobile coverage (AT&T) is very good at the house and generally good in surrounding rural areas. There is a good size supermarket and several restaurants within 5-10 minutes. Many more restaurants and lobster pounds are within 25-30 minutes. We hope to come back and stay longer next time!

Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Coach House. Karen and Keith have thought of everything a vacationer might need! The house was immaculate, the hosts were responsive and easily accessible if needed, and we had all the space we needed, in and outdoors. It was just a short hike to a beautiful pond with great swimming for our entire family (two kids, ages 9 and 11). The beauty of Maine surrounds the Coach House!

We had such a lovely stay at the Coach House. Karen and Keith were wonderful with answering questions and making recommendations for lobster rolls and ice cream! The place was cozy and was on a great piece of Maine country property. We enjoyed starting our days with listening to the birds (and seeing an occasional turkey) and ending our days either sitting out back with a book or walking to the pond (10-15 minute walk) and jumping in for a swim. If we return to Waldoboro or the midcoast area, we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again! After a year and a half of not traveling, this was exactly what we needed. Karen and Keith’s attention to detail was perfect!

The property was everything and more!! Great location for our needs and interests!

We enjoyed the clean, comfortable home which had games, movies and magazines/books of the area—after a long day of touring coastal areas of central Maine we relaxes and cooked at this sweet, quiet spot in waldoboro.

We had a lovely week at the Coach House. The house was clean and had plenty of games and puzzles to keep us occupied. The location was great. Karen and Keith were super responsive and generous hosts. We took advantage of the trails in the back of the property with our dog.
