This was a wonderful place to stay. The accommodations were perfect for the two of us. The cottage is tucked away but still it was easy to get to the harbor or different places to visit. Our hosts, Celeste and Tom were very inviting and helped with things to do and see. I’d love to come back one day.

Wonderful getaway

This is a wonderful place to stay! The views over the pond are lovely, and the inside is furnished comfortably. It’s peaceful and away from the more touristy areas, but easy to drive to town, the beach, and hiking nearby.

We loved this cottage, the immediate surroundings, and the overall location. The cottage was spotless, well furnished, tranquil and relaxing with lovely nearby walks, and convenient for driving into Boothbay Harbor and to other sites we wanted to visit. We didn't want to leave and are already thinking about when we could return!

Beautiful, quiet spot

This was such a peaceful spot to celebrate my birthday. We spent hours just sitting by the mill pond watching the various birds fish. There is a great little store, a bar & a restaurant within walking distance so we didn't leave our little neighborhood at all the first 2 days we were there.
