We just returned from a week at this cottage and loved it. We've been coming to the area for ten years now, but this was our visit time at this cottage. It was perfect. Our kids (7 and 11) loved all the books and games. Our son participated in the tennis clinic. We walked to the beach and the aquarium. Our kids made friends and loved swimming from the association dock to float. Beautiful view and lots of boat traffic. We had coffee each morning on the porch or dock. The cottage has everything you need, is very clean and inviting. We already plan to return.

This is a really cute cabin chock full of fun. If the weather is bad there are tons of books, toys and games to occupy your time. The aquarium down the road is also a blast. The view from the living room is the best. What a good time! I would definately go back!

We just recently spent our second summer at this cottage. Our stay was even better than it was last year due to the fact that we rented it for two weeks, rather than one. The location, constant thrill of the boat traffic, and the charm of the cottage are incomparable.

Truly an old fashioned Maine summer cottage

Positive aspects include very nice owners who left nice touches for us, beautiful views, cottage has some modern renovations (lovely porch & modern bathroom)....however, consider drawbacks which include: lack of privacy (there's a very close cottage right next door), lack of microwave (vacation should mean easier cooking!), lack of comfy seating (furniture is very old), and lack of internet. For the high price we paid (compared to other rates over the past twenty five years in Boothbay Harbor), we expected a bit more.
