The place is great! Clean, beautiful, fully stocked, great appliances close enough to town but quiet nice yard. Couldn't have asked for better, When checking in there was a minor misunderstanding about which the two units we were in but owner immediately assisted and it properly would not ever happen again. Otherwise check in would have also been a breeze. Fabulous Place.

This place was beautiful inside and out. It was almost like brand new, only 5 minutes from Boothbay harbor and everything you needed was there.It's in the woods and very private. You do have a neighbor if it's rented as it is a duplex but that was not a problem and it turned out the neighbor was flying home to Florida on the same flight as us. We live near each other, it's a small world after all. Overall, it was a 10 out of 10, and I would return.

Great spot for Boothbay Harbor

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was well appointed with all the amenities we needed for our stay. We enjoyed the evening patio and was able to see fireflies in the evenings.
