Fulfill your fantasies of a summer in Midcoast Maine at this four-bedroom Boothbay Harbor retreat, a century-old home with a wrap-around porch, a dog-friendly living space, and a glorious oceanfront location within walking distance of downtown.

Built at the turn of the century, this classic four-square home sits one mile east of downtown Boothbay Harbor - the perfect place to book a kayaking excursion, a fishing charter, or an unforgettable whale-watching adventure. From this beautiful spot, you can explore the ocean coast at Barrett Park half a mile southwest, or dine on fresh lobster at Boothbay Lobster Wharf half a mile further.

The living space is full of warmth and charm, offering a country kitchen (with a dishwasher), free WiFi, and a cable TV for your indoor entertainment. Bring your morning coffee outside to the wrap-around porch, read the newspaper at the picnic table with a view of the ocean cove, and set up badminton games with your loved ones in the grassy yard below. Come dinnertime, you can host family clambakes on the charcoal grill outside and take your dog for long, leisurely walks around the neighborhood at sunset (please note that dogs must be leashed outdoors and that a nightly pet fee applies).

Escape to one of the most beloved towns on Maine's gorgeous Midcoast - book your family vacation to Boothbay Harbor today!

Lovely long weekend in Autumn
The title and description are spot on, this is a vintage home with every amenity we needed for a long weekend exploring Damariscotta and Boothbay Harbor. We only needed 3 bedrooms, so did not use the bunk beds tucked into the first floor alcove, and planned to spend most of our time out & about. It was a perfect location for us.

The location was perfect. Very close to town and the Botanical Gardens. The Driveway is a bit dicey to say the least.

Classic Boothbay Cottage
Great location close to town with great view of lobster cove. some of the furniture needs updates the lift chair has a short circuit and gets stuck in up position. the other upholstered chair should be replace or at lest a slip cover quote dirty. Trash is an issue, prior tenants has lobster and barrels were full. a trash bin to hold barrels would be a big plus since animals got into the trash.

Disappointed
We knew the home was older when we booked, which was fine, but it was very cluttered with unnecessary and unusable furniture and other “things”. It was not very clean. There were dust balls everywhere. Although the towels may have been clean they smelled like cigarette smoke and perfume, thankfully there was a washer and dryer and we washed them all. I think the most disappointing and misleading thing was that the water access is treacherous and not really usable. There is no landing at the bottom of the steps seen in the pictures. The steps are steep and crooked and at the bottom (if the tide is out) are jagged rocks and seaweed. We brought kayaks but only used them twice because it was quite difficult and dangerous to launch from the house. This area was not swim-able. I took my kids to a small park down the road to do that. It’s sad because this could be an absolutely beautiful house and property
