It's a beautiful, restful spot to stay for a vacation. Loved waking up seeing the ocean and sun, four of the seven days we were there!It's so nice to come back to a beautiful vacation home with awsome views after a full day.

This was such a magical week. The house and view are amazing. Close to everything we needed and easy to get to the area adventures, but also private enough to make it a perfect break from the rest of the world. We are already looking forward to getting back next year. Highly recommend this stay.

Gorgeous ocean views from a deck cantilevered over a rocky coastline below. Comfy furniture and bed plus everything you’d want if you’re inclined to cook. E. Boothbay is the quieter area compared to Boothbay Harbor….the very definition of a relaxing retreat, which is what I needed.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is clean, comfortable and thoughtfully designed. Gorgeous views from every window and sitting on the deck became our favorite pastime. We hope to return next year!

I had the most amazing, relaxing stay with my pup. The ocean view is incredible and unbeatable. Being near the water is good for the soul - exactly what I needed. Being November, it was cold, but comfortable. The street was quiet and we loved walking alongside the water. My dog also got a kick out of watching the boats. I would absolutely love to make this an annual trip! Can’t say enough positive things - what a gem!!

Nicest place to stay

We truly loved our stay in the waterfront bungalow. Views were incomparable. Sounds of the water was intoxicating. Our host was super nice. This place and host deserve a 10 out of 10. Five stars is no enough.

Hi William so glad you enjoyed your stay. As detailed in the information we sent you before arrival we are on a private well not city water. In Maine that can mean (very rarely and as far as I know not this year at all) a very slight sulfur odor. The water is perfectly fine and there's plenty of it, however it is just a suggestion to purchase your own drinking water if you like. As far as towels we instruct our housekeepers to put out just a few to start with. The closets downstairs are full of them if you need more. Thank you for choosing our property you are always welcome back.

Awesome cottage with breathtaking views! There is no other cottage in Boothbay with such an awesome view. We saw a seal and dolphins right from our deck! We will definitely be back!
