Boothbay Harbor Home with Water Views | Near Dining & Whale Watching
Set back on a grassy knoll overlooking the water, this 3BR/2BA Boothbay Harbor home offers a truly tranquil vacation retreat. Drive minutes to restaurants, hiking trails, whale watching, and the quaint fishing village of Boothbay Harbor. Sleeps 10.
INSIDE THE HOUSE
After arriving in this leafy neighborhood overlooking the water, pull up outside the house on a driveway with parking space for 4. A dark wood walkway leads up to the front door.
As you step inside, turn right into the main living room – an open-concept space with hardwood floors and lots of natural light. There's seating for 6 on a charcoal gray couch and sofa chair. After a day of coastal adventures, curl up for the evening in front of a 40” flat-screen TV.
Next to the living area, a dining area with a glass top table seats 6. From here, gain access to a wrap-around back deck with a BBQ grill and outdoor seating overlooking the trees.
Next to the dining table, an open kitchen makes it easy to chat with the group while prepping meals. Find plenty of appliances close to hand, including an electric stove-oven combo, microwave, and dishwasher. In the mornings, fire up the coffee maker or whizz up fruit smoothies in the kitchen blender.
A hallway off the living area leads to a bathroom with a single-sink vanity and shower/tub combo.
Further along, you'll find the primary bedroom, furnished with a queen bed and 32” TV.
Next door, a snug 2nd living room offers an extra hang-out space with an L-shaped couch and 42” TV with cable.
The remaining bedrooms are located upstairs. On the left of the stairs, a bedroom has 2 queen beds, while the 3rd bedroom comes with a queen bed and two twin beds.
Both bedrooms also share access to a bathroom with a shower/tub combination.
LOCATION
Drive 4 minutes down the coast to East Boothbay. Stroll around the marina in the morning, then grab a lunchtime bite at East Boothbay General Store or Lobsterman's Wharf Restaurant.
Take a 7-minute drive for beautiful coastal views at Ocean Point, or watch the waves roll in against the rocky beach at Grimes Cove.
Just 12 minutes away, the fishing village of Boothbay Harbor is a tranquil place to wander between laid-back cafes, shops, bars, and eateries. Grab brunch at Mama D's, try the Lobster Dock for seafood, then stroll to Downeast Ice Cream for a sweet treat.
The harbor is also a great jumping off point for whale watching, fishing trips, and island sailing tours, the perfect way to soak up the natural beauty surrounding this quaint coastal town.
Enjoy Boothbay's Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens! If you're planning a trip in November or December plan on experiencing Gardens Aglow, Maine's largest light display, with over 360,000 LED lights illuminating the central gardens and buildings.

Great vacation home in Acadia.
We loved our 3-day stay in this home. Close to the national park and in a quieter neighborhood. Would definitely recommend it.
Excellent getaway. Beautiful location and the friendliness of the staff was outstanding.
This is the second time we have stayed at this property and we will definitely be back!

A relaxing and peaceful getaway
Lovely location in the Southwest Harbor neighborhood. We enjoyed walking to the beach, the nearby pier, and into town. It’s a cute, welcoming, and comfortable home with a great deck. Would absolutely stay here again.
The house was clean and warm and had everything we needed. The location was beautiful and close to a great restaurant, little general store, and spectacular ocean front walk.
Nice location, walkable to Beals for lobster and the Claremont for lunch on dock. Kitchen was beautifully stocked with everything you need to cook, bake or grill.Comfortable beds. Nice deck with view of the water. Short walk to crushed shell beach perfect for watching passing boats or small kids to play.

Very nice!
We were very happy with this house. It looks so small online, but it did fit all 10 of us comfortably. The deck is big and has very nice, updated outdoor furniture.! We would definitely go back again.

eleanor, thank you for sharing your experience with us, we are glad you enjoyed our lovely home. We hope to host you for another great vacation in the future.
The location was great. We had five kids with us and it was a great place for kids. They loved the fire pit. There is also a small beach down the street with really great views.
We had a wonderful time at this cottage. Ocean Point was close for exploring the coast, the Boothbay area had plenty of great restaurants and the deck was great for coffee in the morning. We appreciated on site laundry and two full bathrooms as well. We had a great weekend and hope to be back.
Our large family stayed while visiting Boothbay. The house was very comfortable and clean. Beds were good and the room setup worked great for us.
It was a nice peaceful area and easy drive to downtown.
