    Lisa went above and beyond to answer my questions leading up to our visit and responded quickly! The house was perfect for our needs with two littles and two dogs. Location was a minute away from the Botanical Gardens and less than ten minutes from town. We hope to stay here again in the future!

    This property is in a beautiful spot , with a yard for my dogs to run around in and explore . The deck was amazing to just sit on and relax and watch the boats. Beautiful views from all the back rooms . Great location to everything in the area. House had all the amenities you would need .

    The house was very clean and the kitchen was very well supplied. The outside deck was wonderful with a nice picnic table and nice rocking chairs.The view was amazing and we enjoyed watching the working lobster boats! It’s very quiet and peaceful and the Botanical Gardens is minutes away and worth the trip.Also close to downtown Boothbay shopping with nice shops and restaurants I highly recommend the candy store.The only thing that I would say is being it’s an older house the basement is very musty smelling and the room they picture with the ping pong table is not useable space. Overall we would return and it was awesome to be able to have our dog with us.

    Great location to Boothbay Harbor and area attractions. Enjoyed all the nearby hiking preserves. Home is well maintained and clean. Deck view relaxing with water, so peaceful. Was enjoyable to watch the variety of birds coming in at low tide. Children enjoyed the spacious backyard for playing and table tennis.

    The home and location were perfect. Only a few minutes from The Botanical Gardens, and a short trip to downtown. The bedrooms and living space/kitchen were perfect for our group. Bedrooms were comfortable and spacious, the kitchen was perfect for sit down meal and conversation. Living room was also set up nicely overlooking the deck. Water pressure was great! Kitchen stocked nicely with utensils and cookware. The only suggestion is to possibly put in a dehumidifier in the lower level to help with the moisture and damp smell. Otherwise, very happy with our stay and looking to rebook for next summer!

    This home is in a nice location and we enjoyed the views from the living room and deck. The house was also very clean. Unfortunately I was so overwhelmed by the intense air freshener smells and musty odor that I had difficulty sleeping the first night. I had to air the house out a bit. The musty odor was coming from the first level but could be smelled on the second as well. It’s the only issue I had with the place but unless it was resolved I wouldn’t consider returning.

    Two nights at the house. Overall good, just needs a little extra cleaning. Carpets and couch/chairs. Was not use to having to wash and fold sheets and towels. Ran us a little late with our plans for that day.

    This is an outstanding property. Great house. Great host. Well stocked. Enjoyed watching the tide coming in and going out. Boothbay is a great vacation spot. And a perfect time of year. We had a great time.

    The location of the house was perfect. The view was fantastic. It is close to Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, which we enjoyed visiting. The layout and seating was good for us. The house could use some updates. Upon entering there was a musty smell which dissipated after opening some windows. Neither of these things affected the enjoyment of our stay.

    First, let me say that this is not a fancy place, but it is wonderful!! The house was immaculately clean, the kitchen was well stocked with all that you need, and the whole place was homey and comfortable. The view of the tides going in and out every day was amazing. We sat on the deck for hours watching the water and the wildlife. It was so lovely and peaceful. There's much to do from exploring the town 8 minutes away, to eating the freshest lobster ever, and sunset sailing on a schooner. Don't miss Acadia National Park! It's beyond worth the 2.5 hour drive! Owner was helpful and nice. We would DEFINITELY stay here again, highly recommend!!

    My mom & I had a great mother/daughter weekend. Weather was spectacular, the view from the house was lovely as was the surrounding area (very quiet & peaceful). We enjoyed trips to the harbor for dinner and made it to opening day of the Maine Tasting Center - so fun!. The only con of the house would be that it lacked bedroom shades. We were both awoken at 4:45am each morning to the bright sunlight which was rough.
