About this property

Charming Dog Friendly MidCoast Maine Coach House - Great WiFi, Clean & Cozy

We look forward to welcoming you to the Coach House on Dutch Neck, with warm, natural colors and woodwork that evoke feelings of a cabin in the woods. In fact, the Coach House is located right next to the Peter's Pond Preserve, part of the Midcoast Conservancy, with direct access to the hiking trails and a beautiful 12 acre pond. Dutch Neck Road has its own public boat launch as well as the Osborn Finch Wildlife Sanctuary. Whether you are seeking to unwind on vacation, or looking for an alternative remote work location, the Coach House is ready for your visit.

When you arrive, you will walk up the stairs into the spacious kitchen/living room. The open floor plan with windows all around and ceiling fans everywhere will ensure your comfort in the summer, while a gas stove will easily complement the baseboard heating in other seasons. Caribbean Heart Pine floors warm the kitchen, living room, bathroom and hallway, while cozy wall to wall carpeting will cushion your feet in the bedrooms. Each space has its own thermostat so everyone will be comfortable. For your peace of mind in the event of bad weather, we've installed an automatic generator so you will have water and power.

Down the hall you will find the two bedrooms, each with queen beds, ceiling fans, big windows and plenty of drawer/storage space. The bathroom has a beautifully stone tiled and glass enclosed shower, a large vanity, Kohler fixtures, and a full size LG washer and dryer. Towels and linens are provided.

When you don't feel like eating out, you will enjoy cooking in the large kitchen with plenty of granite counter space, full size range/oven, and microwave. The table has plenty of room to seat six people. The kitchen is equipped with all the dishes, utensils, glasses and mugs you will need, along with basic cooking necessities, and a Keurig coffee maker will make your mornings easier.

Just outside your door you will find a lovely patio with a Weber gas grill, table and chairs for 4 for your outdoor dining pleasure, and a cozy gliding love seat so you can fully enjoy the peace and quiet on Dutch Neck.

Waldoboro features some local favorites such as the Odd Alewives Brewery, Borealis Bakery, and Moody's Diner. Within 20-40 minutes you can find wonderful lobster wharfs, and the quintessential small Maine coastal towns, Damariscotta, Rockland, Rockport, Boothbay Harbor and Camden.

We also have put together a binder of information for you on the local area - all the inside info on things to do and places to eat. And of course we are available to answer any questions that will help to make your Midcoast Maine vacation the most fun and memorable!

In the glorious woods

We loved our four nights in this cozy red cabin. Very quiet and surrounded by magnificent fall colors. We did do a lot of driving in the area, visiting the lovely towns, shoreline, and small beaches. The hosts were very welcoming, and the cabin was great for the two of us.

Charming

Delightful second floor apartment, tastefully decorated and well furnished. It is on a country road that winds, so if you think you will be driving at night, be comfortable with that as there are no lights. During the day it is lovely with the leaves turning and not far from various great photography spots if you are into that. On my recommended list!

Wonderful house in a beautiful, peaceful area

My husband and I spent a few nights at the Coach House and absolutely loved it. The space was beautiful and spotless! Every amenity was thought of, even a cookie jar of dog bones! Dutch Neck is a lovely, peaceful spot. We especially liked the trail just behind the house to a nice loop trail around Peter's Pond. I highly recommend this place and would stay again.

Great location not far from town

We had a great time at the coach house! It was plenty of space for my dogs to run around outside and it spacious inside for us and our 2 kids. The house is close enough to town but nice that it wasnt in town. We had a great stay!

Comfortable home in a relaxing location

We enjoyed our stay at the coach house so much it was difficult to leave! We are tall people and the high ceilings were very much to our liking as well as the overall cozy, homey ambiance! We appreciated the luxury touches like, soft close cabinets, large walk in shower and the convenience of in unit laundry! The large yard was enjoyed by both dog and humans!

Excellent quiet getaway spot

Stay was perfect. Property is kept immaculate and host communication is thorough and helpful. We enjoyed our stay immensely and this lodging was very clean and comfortable. We chose this location because it is central to the mid-coast and you can get to many touristy things in 45 mins in all directions. It was a nice getaway.

Great Maine Basecamp

This is a great place to stay for midcoast adventures. The coach house is super comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed and little touches made it great - Bose speaker in the kitchen, extra fans and blankets, etc. Be sure to hike the trails behind the house! Our dog and kid loved that walk and we went back out almost every day we were there. Really enjoyed our stay here.

Re-connecting with myself

I chose this property for several reasons. 1. It was dog friendly and we needed to separate our two dogs (brothers) to see how they would function without the other. 2. It was so close to home, only an hour away and in a beautiful area of Coastal Maine. and 3. I needed a place to process personal issues. This was it. Five stars. Even the pollen invasion didn't deter my stay. I was comfortable the entire time. Had everything I needed, well equipped, dog friendly, and welcoming. I will seriously consider staying again in the future. Karen and Keith were wonderful hosts. They addressed every issue and question I had quickly with speed and grace. I highly recommend "The Coachhouse at Dutch Neck".

So good I want to keep it a secret

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.

Wonderful home base in coastal Maine

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.

Perfect Maine Getaway

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!

Maine vacation

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.

About the host

Hosted by Keith and Karen Langendorfer

Host profile image
Keith and Karen found their home in Waldoboro in 2012, a beautiful 1810 Cape on 30 acres of land on the beautiful Medomak River. Keith is originally from Long Island, while Karen grew up in New Jersey. A frequent vacation destination for us, Maine was a natural place to move so that we could enjoy the beauty we fell in love with, year round.

Why they chose this property

Mid-Coast Maine has a wonderful mix of restaurants, shopping, culture and natural beauty. Our property has that natural beauty in abundance, with views down a gently sloping hill to the Medomak River, open fields, and beautiful woods.

What makes this property unique

We built the Coach House in 2015 on the foundation of an old barn, across the street from our house. It provides a cozy comfortable place where guests can stay - a wonderful "home base" for exploring the beauty and uniqueness of Mid-Coast Maine.
