This place is amazing, full kitchen with a separate bar. Four doors open up going out to the screened in porch allowing wonderful fresh air to circulate throughout the living and dining area. Great WI-FI. Just a short walk to sunset point from the camp via marked trail. This place has all of the comforts of home in a quintessential Maine getaway.

Fantastic early-season stay

We had a lovely stay at the Boathouse. Very quiet and secluded at the edge of the cove, we were able to launch our paddle boards right from the back deck. The stream and hiking trails that surround the house bring extra beauty and an opportunity for amazing sunsets. From this base we were able to dine at local restaurants, play a round of golf down the road, and visit beautiful Popham Beach. It’s a reasonably short ride to Bath, Brunswick, Freeport and even Boothbay to explore the region. Both Bob the owner and Callie the property manager were amazing communicators and provided ample suggestions for maximizing our stay. The home itself was comfortable and had everything we needed, though a quick message to Bob or Callie was an option if we needed anything else. They even left us a loaf of fresh baked bread and fresh flowers with a personal welcome note, a great touch. The deck off the main level is screened in, which was key to enjoy the evenings bug free. Highly recommend.

Excellent property for our vacation with our adult children and partners. Picturesque location, with lots to do in the area, including Popham Beach, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and the golf course at Sebasco Resort. We rented kayaks from Seaspray Kayaks who provided drop-off and pick up. Communication with Bob was excellent and highly appreciated.
