Quiet, modern, dog-friendly home with ocean views, private trails & firepit
The open Atlantic Ocean is just beyond the trees from this contemporary, light-filled home at the edge of the woods in St. George. With private trails meandering through the property offering gorgeous ocean views, this is a place to both escape and explore the unmatched beauty of Midcoast Maine.
This two-story home is located on the Harts Neck peninsula, on a wooded piece of property with views of the Atlantic from its yard and walking paths up above the ocean. It's a setting that's incredibly quiet yet also convenient. Take a day trip on the breathtaking Monhegan Boat Line from Port Clyde (five miles), attend the Maine Lobster Festival in Rockland (16 miles), or simply admire the beautiful harbors of Rockport (22 miles) and Camden (24 miles) to the north.
Whether you spend your time sailing, lighthouse-peeping, or taking scenic drives, this home provides a wonderful space to begin and end each day. Sip your morning coffee in a rocking chair on the screened porch, light the gas grill for afternoon barbecues, and cap your evenings cuddled up by the firepit with s'mores roasting over the flames.
Perhaps the most special feature of the interior is its openness, offering a breezy layout and walls of windows that bring in the beauty of the forest. Anchoring this space is an elegant kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a farm sink, and a butcher-block island with bar seating. There's also a farm-style table for meals and board games, a living room with plush seating, and smart TVs with streaming capability for your evening entertainment. A private washer/dryer and complimentary WiFi are provided as well.
THINGS TO KNOW The woodstove is not for guest use.

Sweetest stay!
This was my second time staying at Sweet Haven, and it was just as lovely as I remembered! The decor is charming, the beds are super comfortable, and the location can’t be beat — just a short walk to downtown shopping and restaurants, but perfectly tucked away on the water for a peaceful escape. We loved relaxing on the dock and at the house. It was a wonderful stay, and I’m already looking forward to coming back again!
Sweet haven was the best place for a relaxing, long weekend in coastal Maine. We could walk to everything, and the recommendations left in the cozy cottage were spot on. We would love to visit again!

Retreat on Precious coastal Maine
Lovely two house on a wharf rental. Watch the tides come in and out. Short walk or drive to charming town of Boothbay with shops and very good restaurants. Quiet houses and privacy. Great for two couples.

ON Boothbay
Adorable decorations and exciting location on a pier above the water
Oh man, if only the weather would've cooperated, I might have never left. Being right on the water and relaxing on the dock in the sun (when it rarely peaked out) was so good for the soul! Also, I know it's random, but the little unassuming shower has AMAZING pressure. A rarity in vacation rentals, I find. Sweet Haven is such a little gem.
The views were amazing. The house was great. We didn’t use the studio but what a perfect way for a family or two couples to stay. It was just a brief walk to town. And a short drive for hikes. Couldn’t have stayed anywhere that would have been better
We truly enjoyed our weekend retreat at Sweet Haven. The property is ideally situated in a quiet cove, right around the corner from downtown Boothbay. The two cottages were very clean and comfortable and the details were 1st rate. Definitely a Sweet Retreat!
Well located and well equipped spot for two couples who know each other or a family. Cool experience living literally on a pier. I rented after their recent opening and they were ironing out some kinks but were quite responsive.

Cute cottage on the dock
This place was adorable! It was convenient to Boothbay Harbor yet away from all the tourist traffic. It was very peaceful. We could have spent all of our time sitting on the deck/dock and watching the water - so soothing. We were lucky enough to be there when fireworks were set off in Boothbay Harbor. What a great view sitting in comfortable chairs on the dock. We could see the fireworks and the reflection in the water.
Separate front and back houses were perfect for us. One bedroom per home, front house has the kitchen and area for extra guests. Super clean and well appointed. Having your own private docks was amazing. Perfect relaxation! Boothbay is a wonderful coastal town with a mix of active fishing and shoreline tourism. Will definitely stay here again when I return to the area.
