This property was an excellent choice for a weekend getaway for my girlfriend and I. It was clean, well furnished, and quiet. The rental was reasonable cost wise and the oceanside views/water access were priceless! The host was friendly and communicated quickly and concisely via messaging. I would certainly consider visiting again in the future and encourage others to do the same.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 Sept 2026
Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the excellent location. I’m sorry the size of the room was not a fit for you. The listing does note that the space is 265 square feet, and the furnishings, including the table, are intentionally selected to be appropriate for the compact size of the room. For future guests, I’d also like to clarify that the space includes a towel rack, a towel ring, and both indoor and outdoor double hooks for hanging wet items. The key is provided in a standard lockbox. I’m always happy to help with any questions or concerns during a stay, but unfortunately, I wasn’t contacted about any of these issues, so I didn’t have an opportunity to assist. I appreciate you sharing your perspective, and I’ll continue looking for ways to make the space as comfortable and functional as possible.

First of all…What a view!! Leah has provided a beautifully appointed condo and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. I ended up traveling solo and it was perfect for me. Sitting on the front porch was one of my favorite things to do…whether having my breakfast and doing some reading or late afternoon/evening watching the sun go down. Breathtaking! The location is great…quiet but close enough to Ocean View (2 miles drive down the road and great place to go for a walk or search for rocks & shells) or go into Bar Harbor which is 20 minutes away. Hope to be back again next August…good time to get away from hot & humid South Carolina! :)

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m delighted that you enjoyed the condo, the view, and especially those peaceful moments on the front deck. It sounds like you made the most of your stay, and I’m so glad the space was a perfect fit for your solo getaway. Just a small clarification for future guests reading the review: Ocean View is about 2 miles down the road, and beautiful Boothbay Harbor is approximately 15 minutes away. Bar Harbor, however, is about a 3-hour drive from the condo. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I would love to welcome you back again. I’m so happy you found a peaceful escape from the heat and humidity of this summer!

Beautiful location, quiet small town yet close to Boothbay Harbor which is a bustling harbor town with lots of boat tours, kayaks, eateries & shops. The location is also driving distance to many harbor towns, lighthouses & gorgeous scenery. Condos are right on Linekin Bay which has lobster boat activity to greet you in the morning on the small but nice deck area. Good views of the bay & the dock from the deck & picture window in the room. Large outside waterfront community area which is very well cared for!! The interior condo has been updated beautifully! It is very clean & comfy! Be prepared to pick up or bring along some basic supplies like trash bags, toilet paper, tissues, condiments & any spices/cooking oils you want to use, minimal extras on hand. It's not a big problem, but good to know when packing. This is a beautiful part of Maine!! We truly loved our stay here & will definitely be back!!

Thank you so much for all of your kind words regarding the unit and the property! I enjoy being able to share this gorgeous part of Maine with quests! Hope to see you again soon! To avoid future guest packing unneeded items, I do want to clarify what is in the room. The room will be set up with 2 toilet paper, 1 paper towel roll, hand soap, dish soap, bar soap, coffee filters, sugar packets, salt and pepper. There will be two trash bags in each trash container. If more is needed, please message me.

About the host

Hosted by Leah

Host profile image
Hi there! I’ve been hosting on VRBO for over 15 years, and I still love it just as much as when I started. It’s such a joy to be part of someone’s vacation — that special time when they can relax, recharge, and make new memories. I take pride in offering a peaceful, comfortable spot that’s close to everything Maine has to offer.
Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many amazing guests and hearing their stories. Hosting has brought me a real sense of community and connection, and I feel lucky to share this beautiful corner of Maine with others

Why they chose this property

What I enjoy most about my neighborhood are the quiet moments in the mornings and evenings. I love starting the day with a cup of coffee while watching the boats, fishermen, birds, and other wildlife on the bay. In the evenings, the sunsets are beautiful, and there’s a calm that settles over the water as the day winds down.
There’s a true sense of community here — it’s a small, peaceful place surrounded by nature. I appreciate being close to scenic hiking trails and the opportunity for quiet walks along Ocean Point. And when I want a nice meal out, there are great restaurants nearby on the peninsula, so I can stay close by when my day is complete.

What makes this property unique

Wake up to a brilliant morning and end your day with a dazzling Maine sunset over the water. This oceanfront retreat offers the best of both worlds — peaceful seclusion and easy access to coastal adventures.
At low tide, step onto your own private stretch of beach to explore tide pools or take a barefoot stroll along the shore. When the tide rises, cast a line or dive in from the floating dock and pier — perfect for swimming, fishing, or launching a kayak.
Inside, you’ll find a bright, comfortable home designed for relaxation, with windows framing stunning water views from sunrise to sunset. Enjoy morning coffee on the deck as seabirds glide by, or gather for evening cocktails as the sky turns gold and rose.
The property sits in a quiet coastal community, yet you’re just minutes from a lively harbor filled with restaurants, live music, dancing, bars, and boating excursions. Rent a kayak or paddleboard for a day on the water, or spend an afternoon exploring nearby towns known for antique shops, maritime history, museums, and theaters.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love the many hiking preserves and scenic trails nearby, offering everything from gentle seaside walks to wooded adventures.
Whether you’re seeking romance, relaxation, or recreation, this oceanfront haven captures the spirit of Maine’s coast — wild, welcoming, and wonderfully unforgettable.
