Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Take in gorgeous oceanfront views from every bedroom and from the Adirondack chairs across the road at this cottage in East Boothbay - a serene escape that has been enjoyed by four generations of the same family. Witness spectacular sunsets from the spacious glassed/screened porch, and spend clear nights on a blanket watching shooting stars. Inside, you'll find a beautifully updated living space with new Simmons bed sets, high-quality linens, a kitchen with top-notch appliances, a new bath with a shower, and a Jotul gas stove to warm you as you play games, read books, watch TV, and catch up with your loved ones.

What’s nearby:
Here on the oceanfront Shore Road, you'll find two miles of Atlantic shoreline available for walking, biking, jogging, or driving. From the property itself, you can fish, launch a kayak or canoe, go for a swim, and find shells, snails, crabs, and starfish in the seaweed and tide pools. You'll also have a view of local lobstermen hauling in their catch of the day, windjammers, and passing seals and sea ducks. If you're looking to explore town for a bit, bustling Boothbay Harbor is less than seven miles northwest.

Best View in Maine

Adorable Cottage, Shore Road is everything you would imagine Maine to be at its best with its picturesque views of the ocean, islands and scenery. Our family enjoyed our stay and is looking forward to returning. Great value for the money and well equipped, just bring your clothes and camara.

Perfect family getaway

You could tell this house has been a well-loved family getaway for its owners for a long time. Everything is set up so that when you arrive, it will feel that way for you, too. Cozy, charming, beautiful views from every window, lots of games & activities for the kids, plenty to do in the area. I hope we'll be back!

The property was fine but for two retirees it was much more than we needed! We essentially used the bathroom, bedroom and porch…..oh and the refrigerator,. The location of course is spectacular and the walk to ocean point very memorable. We loved the duck nesting in the front yard and did have one occasion to use the lawn chairs…otherwise it rained the entire visit!

Location, location, location!

The view doesn't get any better! You can see the water from most rooms in the house, the sunsets are incredible. The house is as pictured. It's a quaint, family cottage. The kitchen was very well stocked. It really had everything we needed and we enjoyed out time sitting by the water. Very peaceful location.

Great views

Place was wonderful, calm relaxing. No complaints other than all the extra fees. They actually double the nightly fee., a little excessive. Was looking to stay 2 weeks next year. Went with another option that has lower total fees

A wonderful spot!

We stayed with our three kids and my mother-in-law for a long weekend at the end of August. The house is in a beautiful spot overlooking the water. It's a basic cottage with lots of charm and character. I would have preferred fewer trinkets around the place, but that is my personal preference. The view across the water is stunning. We had a great time!

Fun family time

My family of four and my brother and his teenage daughter stayed there. My husband and I had one room, my 12 year old son stayed in another, my 14 year old niece and seven year old daughter stayed in another, and my brother had another, with plenty of room for all six of us to sit on the couch. It was beautiful and breathtaking, the view was unreal and the quiet neighborhood was perfect! The screened in porch was just great to eat dinner and watch the sunset go down!

Pictures are better than truth

A charming cottage in a great location. The initial walk-in is a bit of a shock,, the photos are using a wide angle lens, it’s actually smaller and darker than it appears. Most of the windows on the glass front porch don’t open or blinds don’t function so you walk through a little oven to enter the house. The neighbors do not like that this is a short term rental so glare at you rather than speak to you and they don’t want lights on after dark… I don’t mean to make it sound unpleasant, it was fine, but with the nightly cost coupled with all the Vacasa and Vrbo fees, I think it wasn’t a fair deal.. we’ve stayed in houses all around Boothbay, it’s a wonderful place! This house is great, it’s just not priced correctly.

It was indeed a GREAT view!!

We loved sitting on the porch watching the boats and the AMAZING sunsets. The beds, linens and towels were very comfortable. There was excellent communication with the property manager and extremely fast responses to some of my concerns.

The Porch, the Views!

Hands down the highlight of our stay was the view of the ocean from the porch. Absolutely gorgeous and relaxing! The location is outstanding - chairs provided on the waterfront and lovely walks around Ocean Point. The house itself is small, but well suited for four adults. We had an abundance of towels, kitchenware, and all the necessary amenities. A couple of things to note: 1) with only one bathroom you have to be patient for your turn; the shower water pressure is weak, and 2) no cable TV (if that matters to you); however there is an HDMI cable. Would we stay here again? Yes, because of the views!

It was quant, comfortable, good beds, very workable kitchen, safe community and nice walking areas. We had a great time. There were a couple small things that could easily be fixed by the maintenance or cleaning people. We loved the front porch and walking down to the water for the sunsets. Overall it was a great choice for us.

Amazing ocean view, very homey!

We loved our stay here. Very clean, comfortable and homey. They location is so nice right by the ocean, what a view! We enjoyed the ocean air and view on the enclosed patio - our fav place to be. We wished we had more time to just relax enjoy the home. It had everything we needed.

Beautiful view

This is a charming, older home that is quintessentially Maine. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the boats pass—once we were able to cool it down as we experienced a heatwave. Boothbay is a cute little town and we found that it had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The listing claimed to have water access, but we never could figure out exactly where. We walked down to the dock about 1/4 mile away and went swimming there. If the owners included paddleboards or kayaks, this would be a huge plus to the property. Until they do, bring your own or rent some in town.

Perfect for Small Family

Great location and well appointed. The porch was dirty but that is understandable given the area's labor shortage. The downstairs master bed mattress is pretty bad. Like a hammock. Should be replaced. We left everything as found or better. I live locally year around. RE
