Hidden gem nestled on a peaceful side street in Boothbay Harbor

Escape to the idyllic charm of Bay Cottage, a hidden gem nestled on a peaceful side street in Boothbay Harbor. This enchanting retreat, just a short walk from the heart of town, invites you to experience coastal living at its finest. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of a beautifully landscaped backyard, complete with a hammock for lazy afternoons and ample space for family activities. The cottage`s simple yet inviting interiors provide a cozy haven, but it`s the covered front porch that steals the show—perfect for sipping morning coffee or enjoying evening cocktails as you soak in the coastal ambiance. Bay Cottage isn`t just a rental; it`s a harmonious blend of serenity, family fun, and unforgettable moments. Your coastal escape awaits!

Six guests can enjoy a comfortable night`s rest across three inviting bedrooms. Please note that all of the bedrooms and bathrooms in this home are located on the second floor and will require stairs.

The entire house is yours with parking available for 2 vehicles.

Nestled on a tranquil side street along the east side of the harbor, our location offers a peaceful retreat within easy walking distance to a footbridge that seamlessly connects you to local shopping and culinary delights. With Barrett`s Park and Linekin Bay within easy reach, your days can be filled with seaside picnics and refreshing dips. A leisurely 5-minute stroll across the recently revitalized footbridge will lead you to some of the finest restaurants on the rugged Coast of Maine.

Good space with comfortable living room. But the stairs were slippery (need treads on stairs) Also there were mice droppings in kitchen. Droppings were when we checked in.

Well appointed cottage in Boothbay Harbor

Stayed for a long weekend with my family. We had everything we needed and enjoyed the stylish cottage decor. A short walk across the foot bridge to town makes it a convenient location. Two of the bedrooms are lofts which creates a feeling of open spaces but is not soundproofed. I highly recommend this property.

Great location in BBH

Amazing house overall! Best parts: -quick walk to footbridge and .4 mi to BBH -quality furnishings, appliances, furniture, rugs, decor (rare for a rental in our experience!!) -great working AC -quiet street with lovely front porch -so many easy places to walk, didn’t use our car at all -easy booking, great communication Only negatives: -only bathroom is upstairs -stairs are narrow and steep -beds are rock hard (we are ok with firm- but master bed was beyond firm, so crummy sleeping)
