Just what we needed... a quiet, secluded spot to relax and recharge. Property had everything we needed, and loved that the kayaks and water access was so easy. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area, from shops to tours to restaurants. But, if all you want is to just rest, there is a lovely deck and back garden for that, too! Comfy beds, well-supplied kitchen... and don't forget to take a book down to water and just sit and read on the dock. Perfect!

Great stay

Cozy comfortable older cottage in an excellent neighborhood near Booth Bay Harbor. It had everything we needed and was a great hub from which to explore the area. We had a bit of trouble maneuvering in the narrow driveway, but that my have been just us. Would certainly stay again.

Perfect Beach Getaway

This cottage was perfect for our week stay in Boothbay Harbor! We were close to town and the shops and great little restaurants to eat. The cottage had all the amenities we needed to cook and we had fun playing some of the games. We enjoyed having our coffee on the deck each morning and listening to the ocean.

Comfortable

An old- fashioned cottage which is what we were looking for. Very comfy cozy. There is nothing that you will need that is not there for your use, for the kitchen, bathroom and even a work desk. Would definitely rent again.

a perfect place to relax

my husband and i rented this home as a way to relax for a few days. everything was perfect. the location could not be beat. the proximity to town allowed us to come and go and not feel like we needed to plan for the entire day at one time. The kayaks made for a fun escape on the water each day (we even chased a seal around one afternoon!). Thank you for a perfect vacation!

Great Coastal Cottage!

Quaint and well-stocked cottage with a beautiful and private property with water view and access. Everything was in working order and well-maintained. Location is superb for access to the Harbor/town and for day trips out of the area. Owners were super-helpful with local recommendations too. We'd certainly return another time.

great little getaway

Cute cabin with water access. Inside is a bit small, but had all we needed (family of 4). Thoughtfully stocked, and very clean. Instructions were clear. Loved being able to walk down to the water anytime! Just a short drive to downtown but really feels "off the grid."

Perfect 1st pandemic getaway. Calm, clean & beautiful.

Exactly what we needed. The property is as advertised. So very clean! Very well equiped, you won't need to hunt anything down. The location is quiet, convenient and beautiful. Access to water definitely a plus. Julie & Andrew share their home with pride, good taste and honesty. Thank you!

Such a nice quaint cottage in a beautiful and tranquil setting

This is an enjoyable and relaxing place to stay. Proximity to the water as well as the grounds are quite relaxing. They create a tranquil atmosphere of a quiet vacation. We really enjoyed it. The tide variations are remarkable in that when it is out there is hardly any water. Unfortunately this was at all too often at times when we wanted to sit at the dock. Of course this is out of anyone's control. But we still enjoyed the dock and watching birds and once a seal or possibly sea lion stuck its head out of the water. We had looked forward to biking but the area is not really conducive to this (for us) due to the hills. That and no real accessible bike paths pretty much took that option away for us. Between safety concerns and riding unfamiliar bikes on narrow roads was a downside for us. But there are incredible hiking areas nearby with the Boothbay Reserve Land Trust. Those were quite enjoyable with various habitats to explore. The Coastal Maine Botanical garden is a real GEM. A must see that was one of the high points for us. Our day trip to Pemaquid Light House was a highlight. It is a beautiful drive and a lovely place to hang out. The lighthouse, the rocks, the view is all worth the $3 pp admission fee. The cottage is comfortable with all of the necessary amenities. And the owners were always accessible if there were any questions. We would stay here again if the opportunity arose.

Relaxing on the bay...

This home was the perfect place for our relaxing vacation away! The location was very quiet and peaceful, while still being close enough to town. The place was very clean, and the owners were responsive to any questions we had. I'd definitely recommend this place...hopefully we will be returning!
