Charming cabin in an amazing location

My family enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It has the classic Maine vibe that I remember from my own childhood. And the location is incredible. It's tucked up into a pine forest with gorgeous views out every window, and it's a very short walk to Hendrick's Head beach.

A great location removed from the crowds of Boothbay but close enough to enjoy everything the area has to offer. The cabin is quiet, tucked up in the trees with a distant view of the water and a quick 5 minute walk to the beach. We could hear waves crashing in to shore at night.

It worked out

There were several issues from day one, however, the owners were great at communicating with us and resolving them. The cabin is perfect for all things "Maine" and nicely situated in the woods with a five minute walk to the beach. Great for families, kids, and adults alike.

Spectacular

A simply gorgeous and airy cabin that feels private and secluded, yet is just a stone's throw from Hendrick's Head Beach. Spotless with thoughtful touches throughout, plenty of boardgames and beach toys, and an ample kitchen. Plenty of room for a family to stretch out, relax and enjoy everything Southport and BBH have to offer. My wife, my five-year-old twin daughters, and I had a wonderful time during our week's stay -- HIGHLY recommend. Even soft music on the radio was playing for our arrival. Exactly what Maine with the family should be all about.

The vacation we needed!

Just like it was advertised, classic cottage. We were pleasantly surprised with the property. Everything better than expected. Our dogs loved running around outside and going to the beach on their morning walk. The area was walkable and many people did just that. The kitchen was well equipped for someone like me who likes to cook, even on vacation. There are 19 hiking trails close by. Many activities for the whole family. Shopping-there is something for everyone from farmers markets to gift shops to thrift shops.

Great summer cottage, close to the beach

Great cottage surrounded by pine trees . You feel like you are a million miles away from the hustle and busel. Wild blueberry bushes surround the cottage and you can pick away if you are there at the right time of year. Only a short 3 minute walk to the a great beach. Cottage itself has a lot of charm, all the amenities and many sleeping options with a seperate sleeping cottage just outside the main cabin. Morning walks to the Southport general store make you feel like you are back in the 60's. Boothbay harbor is just close enough for some shopping and great restaurants. This place is a hidden jem, shhh don't tell anyone!!!

The Perfect Cottage

We loved our stay in West Southport. We have rented many cottages throughout the Northeast, and this was our favorite. It reminded me of cottages of my childhood. It is homey and cozy so feels like a beloved family cottage rather than a sterile rental. The location is incredible. The sunroom and rooftop deck just add to its perfection.

Great value for price, especially with dogs

We enjoyed our stay. Nice, rustic cabin within a 5 minute walk to dog friendly beach with a beautiful view of Hendricks Head Lighthouse. Kitchen has all necessities. Very friendly neighborhood for walks and just a few minutes from Boothbay Harbor for amazing restaurants, boat trip and quaint stores. Wifi worked great for us. We picked up cooked lobsters right down the road and brought them back for dinner. Check out the General Store for minor needs just a short walk up the street and Farm 23 in Boothbay Harbor for a great bakery.

Quintessential Maine

I hesitate to write a review because I want this place all to myself. It was the most perfect time, ever. We walked to the beach everyday and spent the evenings reading in front of the fire. The kids had do much fun crabbing and jumping from the "island". We cooked/grilled at the house most days, but Boothbay harbor is an easy drive and there is lots of sites to explore. I grew up spending every summer of my childhood in Boothbay. It's so nice seeing my kids enjoy the same thing. The house was everything we could possibly want. Oh...yes, there is internet access, but I told my kids there wasn't any. Thank you so much for an amazing time. we've already requested for next year.

Very good place to stay.

First, VRBO had wifi on the list of items available. It is NOT. NOT on the property. 7 minutes one way, 12 minutes another. Hoping next year it's available on the property, or closer by. Otherwise, owners are friendly and helpful. Place was amazing, in that a comfortable cottage, really good kitchen and bathroom, situated in the woods, with a view of the water, and an amazing beach to walk to. Good prices. Overall very good experience, totally enjoyable.
