Great location
This house fit out needs for extended family staying together. Lots of space so we did not feel like we were on top of each other. Love the dock, using boats/kayaks, and the easy location to all of Boothbay Harbor’s main attractions.
The property met all of our needs of a large group. Plenty of space to spend time together, while having privacy too! Sunset cocktails at the deck/dock were unbeatable!!

It is steps away from the walking bridge and shopping and restaurants. Sunrise and sunset views are picture worthy.

Great place on the water and near town
We rented the main house along with the two cottages and it’s a great setup for a big family—walking distance to lots of restaurants and right on the water. We brought a boat and the dock is in a calm spot and always has water at low tide. The house can get warm during the day if it’s a nice day out, but it cools off fine with fans at night. We also appreciated the kayaks.
Location is great...privacy..but easy walking to town, restaurants.
Charming furnished...nice to have separate cottages.
Parking good...a bonus....wish they took pets.

Fun Family Time in Boothbay Harbor
Stayed here on a family trip and it was lovely. Great town, great location, very spacious, nice amenities. Only a minor issue when checking in and Wifi only in the main house. Which I didn't mind, it was nice to disconnect. Overall great stay. We really enjoyed our trip.
Amazing views. Great location. Plenty of space with 3 separate buildings. Boat house is quiet. Main house a bit noisy with main road and hotel/restaurant next door, especially when keeping windows and doors open for breezes to cool down house on warm summer days.
This was a wonderful home for big families. To celebrate my 80th birthday, my 4 grown children, their spouse and children joined me for a total of 11 plus a baby. Each family had their own space, using the boat house, oar house, ground level apartment and 3rd floor suite. The grandkids and I shared the 3 bedrooms on the second floor. There was plenty of space in the family room, dining room and living room for family time. We also enjoyed the dock overlooking the harbor.
Great place for family to gather for a wedding party. Boat house on dock is prime cocktail lounge. Main house has 5 large bedrooms, and big kitchen for family to gather and cook lobster. Major lobster wholesale/retail facility is on the docks, 150 yards down to road. Perfect introduction to New England for out of towers. Locals couldn't be nicer.
It was a beautiful setting on the bay! The property is a few minute walk across the foot bridge from the restaurants and pubs . and the shops. The grocery store in town was quite reasonable if you choose to cook your own meals. Plenty of cool day trips within 2 hours as well. Our group of 12 had a blast! Lobster 🦞 and adult beverages on the grill while sitting on the deck at sunset on the bay…EPIC!
We had a family of 14 staying at the above site. All aspects of this location were amazing. There was enough room for us to have a great family time as well as the ability to get away if we needed to. The property was fantastic as it was right on the water and had kayaks and boats we could use. We were just minutes away from the walking bridge, which brought us into downtown Boothbay Harbor. The location was perfect as we were close to great restaurants, breweries, distilleries, and any excursion, we wanted to take part in. While , we had a couple of small issues, the property manager immediately responded and took care of everything. Best customer service ever!

Reviewer Comments:
This house/property was great. Ideal for a large party with the 3 homes on property. Within walking distance from the footbridge as well as to a fresh seafood shop which we visited frequently to purchase fresh lobster and cook at home. The best part is that we mistakenly forgot an important bag of items and TurnKey reached out to help get the items back to us before we even realized they were missing. Hi

Thank you for your detailed input on Atlantic Gardens. This charming former captain’s home, built in the early 1900s, is intentionally preserved to reflect its historic character and coastal heritage. In keeping with the home’s age and history, the owners have chosen to retain many original features, including the pedestal bathroom sinks, traditional kitchen layout, and classic architectural details. Updates and improvements have been made thoughtfully over time to maintain the integrity of the property while ensuring it remains comfortable and functional for guests. We appreciate your comments regarding the furnishings and outdoor areas, as feedback like this helps guide future enhancements. The property’s unique layout and multiple living spaces do allow it to comfortably accommodate larger groups, and we’re glad you recognized its potential as a truly one-of-a-kind vacation home.

Some bad, some good
Upon arrival the property had not been cleaned. It was taken care of by 8pm, after some phone calls. The fountain and landscaping were a mess and the property was not stocked with bath tissue, paper towels etc. There is no coffee maker and the master suite is not accessible from the main house, you need to go outside to access it.
The location and dock are breathtaking and town is so close! The property is spacious, making it easy to spread out and have a variety of sleeping areas. Lots of chairs on the dock and the kayaks were great.
