About this property

Oceanfront Cottage & Studio on Mill Cove w/ Water Views, Deck - Walk Downtown

There are few more beautiful settings in Midcoast Maine than the one enjoyed by this oceanfront property on the shores of Mill Cove in Boothbay Harbor. This light-filled coastal escape includes a one-bedroom cottage and a detached studio in a gorgeous dock setting - all just half a mile from the shops, restaurants, and recreational outfitters in the heart of downtown Boothbay Harbor.

As you step inside the main cottage, you'll be greeted by beautiful wood floors, beamed ceilings, and crisp, blue-and-white decor that reflect your nautical surroundings. Windows on three sides of the room bring in views of the ocean, the dock, and the front garden, allowing you to enjoy the setting whether you're playing board games at the coffee table, watching the artfully hidden flatscreen cable TV, preparing meals in the open kitchen, or sitting down to breakfast at the bistro table by the window. Both the living room and the bedroom - just off the kitchen - have glass doors that open to the expansive dock-style deck, where you can grill and dine in the afternoons and sip wine in Adirondack chairs at sunset. Strolling across the deck will lead you to the separate studio, which offers a queen bed and a half-bathroom of its own. Additional amenities include a washer/dryer, free WiFi, and window air conditioning for your ease and convenience.

House was very clean. Kitchen was fully stocked and I was not missing anything. There were dog bowls cleaned and ready for the next visitor. We didn’t have pets this trip. The one thing is the floating staircase is a perfect design for this house and well constructed. I did have a dog that would not like this but that is minor if your dog doesn’t mind. Plenty of places to walk your dog in nature. That being said be prepared to get immersed in nature and quiet serenity.

This is a lovely home with tons of natural light and a great screened porch. People and dog all enjoyed the miles of mulched trails right outside the door. The waterview is limited, but you can hear the waves due to the absolute quiet of the location.

We had an amazing time at the Treehouse. The architecture, including numerous windows, brings the outdoors in. The house is so comfortable and the trails and coast kept us in discovery mode all week. It is a beautiful, secluded retreat. We visited in August, but I can imagine an equally fulfilling experience in Spring, Autumn or Winter. Thank you.

Beautiful, spacious home

We enjoyed our stay at the property. The home is lovely - well appointed and spacious. Perfect for our family’s stay in St. George to attend a wedding. The walking trails were much appreciated- we even saw the Milky Way while taking an evening walk!

Home away from home

This is our second time staying at this property - it’s truly a home away from home. It’s clean, with simple yet thoughtful decorations / furniture. Everything is extremely comfortable. The screened-in porch is lovely in the mornings and evenings. The location is private, yet still within a 10 min drive to downtown St George! We love it and hope to return again.

Peaceful

The Treehouse is the perfect relaxation vacation spot. All the windows bring in so much natural light along with the calming presence of the woods and the ocean. I wish we could have stayed longer..... It was also a great starting point to many road bike routes. And we were so happy to be able to bring our dog definitely considering making it a yearly trip

Gorgeous home in the woods

Our family of six enjoyed this fabulous home in the woods for almost a week. It was stocked with all we needed, the beds were very comfortable with ecofriendly mattresses, we enjoyed the view of the ocean in the distance, the fireflies at night, birds in the trees and lots of natural light. The screened in porch was especially lovely for morning yoga and listening to the sounds of the waves at night. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

This was the perfect house for us as we were in town visiting family and wanted something nearby. It is exactly as pictured. Modern, clean house nestled in the woods, bathed in natural light. The master bed was very comfortable. Bathrooms were spotless. Kitchen has everything you would need to cook. My favorite spot in the house was sitting at the kitchen island overlooking the ocean while enjoying breakfast every morning. Thank you very much for the walking trails. It was really nice to get out for a little hike through the forest (we even got lost). Peaceful is how I would describe the outdoor surroundings.

Maine Fall Trip

This property and home exceeded our expectations. Absolutely beautiful, clean, and a wonderful place to stay. My only issue was that getting to the property at night was a little scary because there were no lights on at the property and the area is very remote. It wouldve been helpful to have detailed instructions.

Unclean & Poor Guest Services

The property is nice; however, numerous dead bugs in dishes, dirty dog paraphernalia, and incorrect information provided by guest services left us feeling like we significantly overpaid for the experience we received.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 July 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Armin. We apologize to hear about your experience with the cleanliness issues, including the presence of dead bugs in the dishes and dirty dog paraphernalia. This is certainly not the standard we strive to uphold. We aim to offer clear and accurate assistance, and I’m sorry we fell short in this instance. We hope we will have an opportunity to provide you a better experience.

Not a clean property

The location and house looks great on the listing. In fact it was a bit while after we settled in that we realized how dirty the place is and how neglected it is in terms furniture maintenance and hygiene. The main couch is falling apart with feathers all over it. The windows have dead bugs and insect droppings on them. The dishes in the cabinets have dead bugs in them. The dog area, including the dog bed and the dog bowls were extremely dirty. It is not worth over 500/day to stay at this location as it is clear that the property needs a lot more attention from the owners and the renting company that it is getting at the moment. Very disappointed. When we described some of the cleanliness issues with the management team, they just suggested to have someone come clean it, on our time, during our vacation.
