About this property
Beloved family home in Boothbay Harbor!
Stuart Little is a wonderful place to slow down and just breathe and the perfect place for making summer memories. The bright and spacious living/dining room offers plenty of seating and is an excellent place to gather. The large well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher makes for easy meal preparation. This cottage has a regular drip coffee maker. There is a 3/4 bathroom located on the first floor off of the kitchen. Bedrooms are all located on the second floor as well as a full bathroom with a claw-foot tub. An enclosed back porch makes for a perfect quiet afternoon reading spot. The covered front porch with both water and garden views is an enchanting place to enjoy a cocktail or read a good book.
It`s a one-minute walk down a stone step path and across the field to the beach where you can revel in sea glass hunting or enjoy a swim out to the community float. There are four beautiful association clay tennis courts as well that are available for use with a fee. The nearby Community House is a hub for kids to meet with ping pong and board games - a fun step back in time. There`s certainly something special about summer coastal communities in Maine.
The Maine State Aquarium is a 15-minute walk down the road and a delightful place to explore with a 10` touch tank. Walk around to the back and discover a great fishing pier for your use. Downtown Boothbay Harbor is a quick 2 miles away.
Parking is available on site for 3 cars and it`s a 5-minute drive to town.

Perfect weekend in the most perfect house. Loved the location with a pathway right to the beach and great views of the sunset from the porch. Close to town. Would love to come back!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the house, the beach access, and those beautiful sunsets. It’s such a special spot, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
We had children and grandchildren all coming from out of state and the property was perfect for us! The grandchildren were young but all seemed to like the "bunkroom". Views were beautiful and the beach access was great. We would stay here again for sure!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that the property was a perfect fit for your multigenerational gathering. It’s wonderful that the grandchildren enjoyed the bunkroom — it's always a favorite! We're also glad you were able to take in the beautiful views and make the most of the beach access. We would absolutely love to host your family again anytime!
Cozy and charming. The cabin is in a nice
Location. We were here in Sept and it was a little cold so no water sports (it looks like a great place for that). Wendy is great and easy to communicate with.
We had an amazing time celebrating my mom's 60th birthday at the Stuart Little cottage. It brought back so many memories of my own childhood in Boothbay Harbor and I know my parents will cherish the new memories we made with my small nephews.
The cottage was in a gorgeous and quiet neighborhood overlooking the water. We met a few neighbors who were so friendly and welcoming and gave us great pointers about where to go during our stay.
I wouldn't consider it super walkable to downtown, especially with the little ones as it was off a main road, but it was a very quick drive to the heart of Boothbay.
The house was fully stocked with many amenities I hadn't even expected. The washer and dryer were especially awesome. Judy was exceptionally helpful during check-in and helped us locate everything we needed to get comfortable. I hope they will have us back for many summers to come!

Mediocre
We had a lovely time in Maine. The area around the home is absolutely breathtaking. However, the home could have been better. The beds were quite comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped but the living area was awful. There was no comfortable seating in the living room. The dining table was so wobbly that we couldn't use it to eat at. The outdoor furniture is in bad shape including another wobbly table and chairs. There could have been more towels for showering instead of having to do laundry every other day and lastly there was a wasp nest nearby. They were swarming around the deck and several got in the house. My daughter and my grandson were both stung. I give it a 4 out of 10. Best part was the view

Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we're glad to hear you enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding area and found the beds and kitchen well-equipped, we're truly sorry that other aspects of your stay fell short of expectations.
We take your comments seriously and have already flagged the concerns regarding the seating, wobbly tables, and outdoor furniture for immediate review. Your note about the wasp activity is especially concerning—our team will ensure pest control is dispatched to address this issue right away. We’re also revisiting our towel supply to make sure guests aren’t needing to do laundry so frequently.
Your experience matters to us, and we appreciate your honesty. We’ll use your feedback to make improvements so future guests have a more comfortable and seamless stay.
Warm regards,
The Sea Maine Team
This house is rustic and very "Maine" - the view from the porch is incredible - pictures don't do it justice. We found the location super convenient to visiting everything that Boothbay Harbor has to offer. Would definitely stay here again.
