Cottage holiday rentals in Boothbay Harbor

The most beautiful place, exceeding all expectations. The views are spectacular. We breathed in peace and tranquility. A fabulous place to celebrate my 80th birthday with the whole family -- 16 of us. Everyone was comfortable in the space. In addition to being the perfect host, Samantha provided surprise extras which was such fun! Just a few of the highlights: S'mores at the firepit, lobster dinners, seals, bald eagles and fireworks. She made our stay truly memorable. My family gives the place the highest recommendation.

We had a great two nights here and enjoyed the hot soak and the sauna. It was near many amenities and also felt very removed. Matt’s was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our stay was perfect and the escape we hoped it would be.

Adorable cottage, newly renovated. Perfect for two with an open space loft for one more. Kitchen is well stocked right down to the coffee. A good location if visiting Fort Knox, Mt. Barrie and not too far from Bar Harbor if that is on your list. Great stay, highly recommend. Beautiful view and private.

great stay for a relaxing weekend trip. perfect house for chilling but still drivable to Acadia. well stocked on the essentials, linens, and stunning views! host very responsive as well.

Great clean air bnb. Accurately as described.. looks good in photos but even better in-person. Bed was comfortable. Would rent their properties again.

Perfect for what we needed for a weekend getaway. So peaceful and a lot of interesting wildlife. We saw so many different types of birds! The hot tub is spacious and easy to use.

We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs across the country and I’m not exaggerating when I say that Lydia’s place was one of the cleanest and most well-maintained homes that we’ve been in. The property and scenery are breathtaking. The numbers of birds and chipmunks that entertained us while we sat on the back deck was surprising. We ate all of our meals with the exception of lunches at the cabin and had everything we needed to prep and cook our food. This trip was all about relaxing and Lydia’s home was everything we needed.

Wonderful,private, well equipped cottage on pretty pond. Owners quick to respond to our texts. Relaxing hot tub and fantastic sauna! Many restaurants and breweries within a 30 minute drive. Book it ..... you won't wanna leave!

We had a fantastic time at this cute and cozy cottage! It’s within 15 minutes of basically anything in the Portland area and the cottage itself is so charming and inviting. We only wish we had planned to stay here longer!

Amazing experience! Michelle was a great host and her place was perfect for our anniversary getaway. We spent 5 nights, but wish we could have done more. Beautiful and peaceful location, and would love to come back. Oh, and it was a coffee lovers and snack paradise!

Beatiful cabin on the water, thoughtfully decorated. I loved the layout, plenty of seating areas and lovely decor. There is only one small bathroom which may be an issue with more than 2 or 3 guests, but worked out perfectly for us. We saw deer twice when driving down the trail to the house which was exciting! Loved using the firepit outside. The only bummer was that the dock wasn’t in the water yet. I still managed to use the kayak but would not advise attempting without the dock lol. Wonderful host, David was very responsive and had a nice bottle of wine waiting for us on our arrival. Would 100% come back

Alana's home was more than we expected. The home was spotless and well equipped for our quick stay. She is very accommodating and responds to questions immediately. We would definitely stay again if we're in her area.

Beautiful setting and peaceful. Great place to rest and relax. Easy access to town and restaurants. Will definitely return!

This spot was just perfect. Seemed like a brand new lake house with modern decor. It was perfectly clean and cozy, with an open floor plan that made it feel big and bright. All the appliances were easy to use. Having the opportunity for outdoor and water activities was great. It made our packing much easier as we could take advantage of the kayaks, canoe, grill, and outdoor corn hole game provided on site. The fish were really biting, both from the dock and out on the boat - we caught 11! The fire pit made for a relaxing night, and the shower had excellent temperature control and pressure. The location was close to groceries, ice cream stands, and a very cool car museum. We didn’t want to leave!

What a beautiful location! David is a great host. He made sure we had good directions, tips for the area, and was quick to answer any questions. The lakeside cabin has absolutely everything you need to have a peaceful, relaxing vacation. The view of the lake is spectacular. The cabin is very clean, has a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and Echo lake is a gorgeous pristine lake. Every morning, we enjoyed our coffee on the dock. We swam, kayaked, canoed and even tried out the paddle boards that came with the house. We would love to come back! Thanks!

Popham beach stay was great! We enjoyed the easy access to the beach and long walks twice a day. The house itself is very roomy with lots of space for everyone. Good heating and comfortable furniture. The tapwater is very rusty so be prepared but drinking water is provided. The floors are unfinished wood so you’ll need shoes to avoid splinters but overall, it’s a very comfortable place in a great location!

Our stay at the River View Casita was wonderful! It’s a small, cozy space - perfect for two people. It’s very bright and airy, which we loved. The instructions to find the house were super helpful and after the first time - it was very easy to come and go. We did locate and walk down to the dock, which was beautiful, but it was just a little too cumbersome to bring chairs and food down there, so we didn’t spend as much time as we thought we would. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend it!

Carole was a pleasure to stay with. She was always responsive, and had a lot of great recommendations for what to do. Her place is absolutely beautiful, and staying at it was one of my favorite memories. I hope to come back some time!

The Eagles Nest is an amazing space! We stayed for 4 days and didn't want to leave. The view is beautiful and you must wake early to watch the sunrises. We even saw an eagle. Shannon was very responsive to all messages and super helpful when we needed to leave a different rental property (not one of hers). The home is immaculate. I can't say enough about The Eagles Nest and Shannon.

As we arrived there was a bottle of wine waiting for us! We so enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the tides and the eagles soaring above us, diving into the water to catch fish! We kayaked right off the property which was also super convenient and very beautiful. We had a lovely week at the cottage and thoroughly enjoyed its amenities. We would definitely recommend and return!

Mischele really thinks of a traveler when she sets up her place! The extra touch of orange juice, creamer, coffee, freshly baked breakfast is great! Everything is there. Convenient to many great restaurants.

the stay was nice, the place was clean, match the description, pretty easy to find, and Christine had great communication. very beautiful views, right on the water, kayaking was nice.

Very quiet and cozy area to spend our holiday weekend! Plenty of space for the family to hang out and play games, and a kitchen we were able to cook in almost every meal! It was a very comfortable and clean home that we were grateful to get to enjoy on vacation. Not every day we Michiganders can find a place as beautiful as here at home to spend time away, but this cottage and the aesthetic in southwest Maine in general is a place that certainly measures up!

This was our third time staying at this property, and we always look forward to our next stay once the current one ends. I don’t want to duplicate past reviews, but the listing is 100% accurate - dramatic views and sounds of the sea - and we come to rest and recharge. We also bring our dachshunds who can’t get enough sniffs when they are here. Tips: - May weather is unpredictable but it will definitely be cooler here than inland. Come prepared. We bring robes, heated throws, and our own small heater (they also provide multiple heaters but the large fireplace goes a long way to get the cold out of your bones). - Don’t overpack. Bring your non-negotiables, but you can get groceries in town. Do laundry during your stay to cut down on packing. - Do check out Waterstruck Wellness in Newcastle - not too far. Nice Nordic circuit (sauna, warm pool, cold plunge) amid a forest environment. - Don’t hesitate to reach out to your host with any issues. They’re great and responsive. Enjoy!
