Welcome to Cottage at Roads End, situated on one of the most desirable streets in all of Boothbay Harbor. This one-story, 2 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath year-round, Cottage/Home is .7 miles to the Footbridge and about 1 mile to all downtown amenities.

Treat yourself to spectacular western-sky sunsets, with views across New England's oldest continuously working Lobster Pound. The master bedroom affords completely private views of a woodland forest, replete with song birds and butterflies, and includes an en-suite 1/2 bathroom and walk-in closet, along with access to the wrap-around deck. A separate laundry room (mudroom/pantry) is conveniently just off the kitchen. You will treasure coming down this lovely road with views to the ocean!

Relax beneath the custom canvas awning where you can delight in watching the harbor activities from seasonal fireworks to windjammers and lobster boat races!

The house was perfect for us! It is in a great location and was cute and comfortable. We could walk to downtown and / or short drive around. Beth was super helpful and even checked in that we go in ok (we had arrived a bit late). The town was lovely and this was a great spot to be for the visit.

My stay in Boothbay Harbor was wonderful.The cozy cottage was very clean, with a well- stocked kitchen and comfortable living spaces. The location was perfect- an easy walk to restaurants, shops, and the waterfront, plus a great base for day trips exploring other part of Maine’s coast. I would stay her again!

We absolutely loved our visit to the Boothbay Harbor area and our stay here was amazing. It was very close to many things in the area and the view from the front porch was beautiful. We loved having the room to spread out and really enjoy the area. Loved and would definitely stay again. We especially loved watching the little duckies in the pond next to the property. They were so adorable.

It was a quiet, relaxing and peaceful getaway. The wrap around porch next to small babbling brook into a duck filled pond was enjoyable. The sunsets and sunrise wile sitting on the porch making it much more lovely. The place was clean, Beth was wonderful to communicate with prior to and during the visit. I would love to rent for a week. The coffee mugs were perfect.

We absolutely loved out 2 days in Boothbay Harbor in Beth's beautiful home. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the amazing sunsets. We walked down to and over the footbridge to explore the fun town and take a sail with the Schooner Eastwind. Fun experiences! We had dinner both nights on our side of the harbor, first at the Boothbay Lobster Wharf and the next night at Coastal Prime. Two different experiences, both wonderful in their own way. We stopped at the Maine Coast Botanical Gardens on our way down to the house and were blown away! Beth's house is well furnished, though we didn't make use of much but the bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen for the refrigerator and coffee! And the deck!

Nice Cottage - not on the water

We had a lovely stay in BoothBay Harbor. The town, people, food and surroundings are amazing! The cottage is at the end of a road, not on the water as the description might lead you to believe. The owners keep the cottage very clean and the checkin process was very smooth. We fell in love with the town and will visit again - but we'll look for a lake house next time.

Sweet Cottage Walkable to Boothbay Harbor

We loved everything about this sweet little cottage that looks over the water and a working lobster dock. It is at the end of a beautiful, leafy street lined with older, stately homes, and it’s walkable to restaurants, lobster wharves, etc. The cottage is well appointed and comfortable, from the thick, fluffy towels, to the cozy furniture, crisp linens, and nice deck furniture. Communication with the owner was excellent; she was very responsive and clear. Highly recommend for a small family or couple who wants to be close to Boothbay Harbor, yet have some peace and quiet in a nice neighborhood.

Disappointing

Gorgeous view of a working Lobster fishing operation that most days started at 4:30. -5:00 am. Very loud and noisy .Poor attendance to provisions in the house. We had to buy all paper products, salt,pepper,coffee cups that you could drink out of! I text the owner for Resturant recommendations, no reply. Lot of time dealing with “how to turn the Television on”. The owner sent her son over to help. He was there maybe 30 seconds ,pushed some buttons. But he failed to show us the last one to turn it on? Beth did offer to drop by but we were walking out the door for a dinner reservation. Very dangerous porch railing on right side. We loved Maine and our 18 days in Boothbay but not the house or uninvolved owner!

A Great Place to Stay

We enjoyed our visit to Boothbay Harbor and liked the house . The accommodations were cozy and comfortable plus we enjoyed a view of the sunsets. We spent time sitting on the deck reading and were pleased to find there was a grill we could use. The cottage was just the right size for four people and had comfortable beds. The house was equipped with all that we needed . We liked the neighborhood and found that we were close to the downtown area. Our favorite activity was watching the ducks that were fed every morning near our cottage.
