Boothbay Harbor cottage

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was nice to be able to walk to the footbridge and into the village. It was nice to have a bathroom upstairs with the bedroom. We enjoyed watching the cable TV when we were back at the cottage (rather than RUKO, HULU, etc.)

Comfy cottage

Well stocked kitchen supplies (if you want to cook occasionally). Spacious living/dining room with two screen sliders that provide good ventilation. We enjoyed relaxing on the back deck overlooking trees with an occasional glimpse of the harbor. On-site laundry was a big convenience. Another plus for us was the ability to walk into town.

Lovely cabin, great location

This is a very nice little cabin a few blocks from the footbridge to the harbor area. Parking around there seems tight so being able to walk was great! The bed may not be quite as large as what you’re used to, if you have a King size at home. Overall it’s a great place to relax at and explore the area from.

Great location for Boothbay Harbor, Me

Nice comfortable home for a couple. Older cottage but, in good condition. Needs a little TLC and maybe new stove as front left burner did not seem to work. We enjoyed ourselves.

:Lupine Cottage

This is a charming cottage. The bedroom is roomy and airy. The kitchen is perfectly adequate and well stocked with kitchen equipment and utensils. It's on a quiet street. It's very easy to walk down to the water. It wasn't more that a 10 minute walk to a great lobster shack. The host was very welcoming. We had one unseasonably cold and rainy day, but the electric baseboard heaters kept the house cozy. There is a really noice porch, which would be a delight on a nice day.

Great Location

If you are visiting Boothbay Harbor and the surrounding area Lupine cottage is very accessible. The kitchen had everything we needed and Al was great to work with. Our only complaint is the bedding, this is a full size bed, with a very stiff mattress, neither of us slept very well. The other minor complaint, is the bedroom, during the spring and summer months gets VERY early day light, I am talking 5am and the window blinds do nothing to address this. A bigger more comfortable bed and black out blinds or curtains would have made this an ideal stay.

Not very much for the money

Cottage in dire need of maintenance and repairs. Two stove top burners faulty. Only two of nine down stairs windows have screens. Lots of peeling paint and rotting exterior wood. Washing machine allows only 12 inch clearance to reach toilet. Burnt out range hood down light.

Enjoyed our stay at Lupine Cottage

The property as described/pictures accurate-Very clean/comfortable. Additional info binder provided for things to know about property/area. Previous review noted ‘rocky’ area leading to front door-Maine has rocky terrain/Boothbay its share. From provided parking spot (looking at cottage is at right) lawn slopes down to front door. There is some uneven rock terrain, but is flattest close to wooden decking at front door. The outside porch wraps from cottage side into back where the ‘view of Harbor’ is difficult-there are tall trees-maybe if no foliage? No matter to us, a very comfortable spot. The “walking path” (from previous reviews) near the property goes “down” partly bumpy asphalt, cement steps, trodden grass, with spotty uneven terrain to lower street that leads to Boothbay Footbridge. Good ‘walking shoes’ suggested as path is time saver-best way to Footbridge and “Walking’ suggested because Boothbay parking areas are spotty. The Lupine Cottage very nicely decorated, The kitchen has everything needed, The 2nd floor bed very comfortable – we didn’t use the sofa bed on 1st floor so we can’t address it. Plenty of linens, Water pressure fine, Bathroom showers are standard 3 foot wide..no extra elbow room. Stairs with railing 1st to 2nd floor, note this is an ‘adult’ property. The ceiling/other fans provided and opening windows were fine for comfort with the weather in mid July. Washer/Dryer very convenient, located at entrance of 1st floor bath. Would return again.

Pleasant little hideaway.

Nice little hideaway, very quiet and private. Location was fine for a little walk into town. It’s an older house but very clean and well equipped except there was no grill and we had planned on having one. We would recommend this to other couples but anyone with mobility issues would have trouble getting in and out of the property since the ground is very uneven and there is no railing for assistance.

Quiet cozy cottage

Having been to Boothbay Harbor before it was the perfect place for a quick getaway. The cottage was perfect. It seemed more spacious than the pictures looked but still cozy. Everything a cottage should be. The bed was comfortable and a full bath both up and downstairs was a plus. We spent quite a bit of time on the back deck which was surprisingly quiet. Although there are other homes in the area, the back yard is surrounded by trees and very serene. Be sure to read the visitor guide on the dining room table for directions to the public path down to the footbridge. Real time saver! Al is a great host.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The interior is quite cozy and the cottage is on a nice quiet street with friendly neighbors. Boothbay is quite lively while beautiful and of course Maine in the summer just can't be beat.

A delightful experience, walking distance to The Harbor!

The cottage was clean and had all of the amenities that we needed! The peaceful, shaded deck was perfect in the morning and evenings to relax with coffee or a glass of wine! It was a heat wave when we were there, so the cottage got warm, but between the provided fans and the fan that we brought, it was comfortable for sleeping at night! We would definitely stay again!!!

Wedding Anniversay Getaway.

My wife had never been to Maine before. It was a complete surprise to visit both the state and stay at Lupine Cottage. She was ecstatic, at what I had arranged. I have stayed at Booth Bay Harbor a few times previously, but not for quite a few years. The pictures do not do the Cottage justice. It had a great energy inside to it. Absolutely perfect. Nothing needed to it, and nothing to comment negatively about it. Just perfect for us. Thank you Angela & Al

About the host

Hosted by Rhonda Pakyz

Host profile image
Owner is from New Orleans who lived in Portland with family in the early 80s while managing a manufacturing plant. Learned to ski, ice fish, etc with local families. Taught college at night and completed his 20 years Naval Reserve in Kittery. After moving he continually visited the area until finally purchasing this home (Lupine Cottage). As a Southerner he appreciates the coastal northern New England, cool, pleasant summer weather.

Why they chose this property

Boothbay Harbor has always been my favorite 'outside of Portland' area. It is the largest small boating harbor in Maine with a combination of lobster and sailing vessels (including major wooden boat/ship repair facilities); visually a postcard town. The restaurants are excellent, shopping is convenient as is all services; a real quaint yet modern town with good medical facilities.

What makes this property unique

We chose the Lupine Cottage because of it's charm and closeness to all activities. It gives one the feeling of outdoors inside. It has been fully renovated which includes a modern kitchen and very spacious bedroom upstairs. The cottage was purchased for myself and happily for a few guests every year.
