Sightseeing

The Rail Trail in Belfast is 4 miles long and used for walking and bike riding. Along this trail you'll enjoy multiple vistas with the train depot at one end and the start of the board walk at the other. The boardwalk actually takes you into town, past the Come Boating! shed, along the harbor, past the park and to the Boat House at the far end. There is a small swimming beach here that is lovely and somewhat private. I love swimming in this particular location.

Shopping

In 1949, Robert H. Reny (better known to all as “R.H.”), opened his first store in Damariscotta, Maine. The first winter was so slow that in order to keep the store open, R.H. had to go door-to-door around the area selling merchandise out of his old Hudson. That winter he made so many friends that in the spring his new friends came in to shop at the store and the business has been growing ever since! His philosophy was simple – make great buys of quality merchandise and pass these incredible values along at the lowest possible price to our customers! This philosophy has driven our successful business for over 70 years!
