Antiques near Damariscotta, ME

“This place! We LOVED meeting and chatting with Miriam Buckley proprietor. Full of knowledge about Damariscotta and her lovely wares. Her husband is talented at restoring antiques and breathing new life into them. The chairs were 30% off and I wanted them all. Unfortunately they wouldn't fit in my checked bag. Her McCoy pieces were plenty and in pristine shape. Love the way she had them displayed by color. I saw a table that was actually made in the 1700s! When I move to Damariscotta one day, I plan to become best friends with the Buckleys. You must visit.”

“I’m in awe every time I visit this store, antique treasures galore! I always have to make sure to plan ample time to look around. So many beautiful items, big and small, all displayed perfectly. I’m always excited to see what’s arrived from across the ocean and feel like a kid in a candy shop @The Art of Antiquing. Not only is the store packed with wonderful quality antique treasures, the women who work there are so knowledgeable and amazing!”

“This place is awesome! If you like American Pickers this is the place for you! The have every thing from gas and automotive to mechanical toys and trains. Also Wedgewood and other collectables. Multiple floors , well organized and a variety of goods. Will definitely stop again.”

“We stayed here on my first visit to Wiscasset. The proprietor, François, is amazing. She was friendly and helpful, quick check in to a beautiful room, clean and elegant French primitive. The spot is very central to restaurants and shopping. Breakfast is included and tailored to what we preferred—tea instead of coffee, flavors of jam, etc. I loved the firm mattress but will warn, it’s very firm. Lovely spot in the world!

Nearby activities: Close to the famous Reds Eats, and the more welcoming Spragues.

Walkability: All of Wiscasset is walkable. The only problem is getting there through the traffic bottleneck if you arrive toward the end of the workday.”
