Close to the harbor and schooner cruises out of Boothbay Harbor! Right across from Robinsons wharf with amazing Maine seafood! Great for day trips to Damariscotta, Bath, and Pemaquid Lighthouse.
We had a very nice time. The cottage is small, as described. The water was hot and plentiful. An instruction page in the cottage notebook explaining how to use the tv would be very helpful.
The cottage was was warm and cozy in the late-season Maine weather. Check-ing/Check-out was a breeze. Southport's quiet charm is a stone's throw from Boothbay Harbor's more active downtown. Proximity to Barter Island and Wiscasset are also appealing. Rockland for the art museum and galleries are a scenic hour's drive. highly recommend Little Nick.
We liked the cottage. Just big enough for two, though we are large and the shower is a tight fit. lol. We did leave several rolls of toilet paper so the next guest won't need to buy in advance. No complaints.
We have visited Down East Maine many times, but this was our first time to stay on the Midcoast. Little Nick on Southport Island was the perfect home base. The location was convenient for all of our explorations. We enjoyed seeing the boats go out from the harbor each morning. The kitchen is compact, but it worked great for our meal preps. We were pleasantly surprised at how well-equipped it was. The cottage is well-maintained, and we loved our time in it!
