About this cottage rental
Nestled along the shores of the private 90 acre West Harbor Pond, this quaint cottage offers the perfect escape just minutes from the heart of Boothbay Harbor, Maine. A welcoming property featuring 2 queen beds and 4 twin beds, it's the perfect place for a family or group of friends to relax, have fun, and recharge.
With direct access to the freshwater pond just feet away, you can enjoy paddle boarding, kayaking, and fishing at any time in the pristine non-tidal water. Or simply sit on the dock or deck, taking in the tranquil views of the water and sounds of bull-frogs. You'll have pine needles at your feet, leaves over your head, and the smell of smoke from the fire in the air. Though the distant sounds of a car passing by can be heard on occasion from across the water, this property is located on a private road, offering a buffer from the hustle and bustle of the tourist seaside town. Here, the sounds of bass splashing in the water and the call of loons will more often grab your attention. It's a great little spot to watch the sunset over the pond or enjoy a morning coffee while listening to the melodic songs of birds.
Inside, the cottage features cozy, coastal-inspired decor with all the comforts of home. The open living area with floor-to-ceiling windows invites you into the home and a fully equipped kitchen allows for easy meal preparation. The indoor dining area offers a scenic spot to enjoy meals with family and friends, but let's be honest - you'll want to maximize your time outdoors cooking on the propane grill, eating on the picnic table and gathering by the fire pit.
Be advised there are EXTERIOR only cameras around the property to help maintain security of the premises.
Located just a short drive from the bustling harbor, local shops, restaurants, and attractions, this cottage offers the ideal balance of peace and convenience. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or an adventure-filled getaway, this beautiful cottage on the pond is your perfect home base for exploring all that Boothbay Harbor has to offer.

The property was peaceful and serene. Our kids loved fishing off the dock and caught & released some good size large mouth bass. The water was clean and great to swim in. Meredith our host was very friendly and communicative with us. Great place, great time, and great memories. We will definitely be back!We suggest visiting the nearby Botanical gardens. It’s worth it!

The cottage had the BEST views of our 2 week long New England trip. The cabin was comfortable and close to Boothbay Harbor, just a short drive to town. Sitting on the porch each morning was absolute beautiful! One of us even saw an American Mink one morning after catching his breakfast! We will define stay here again when we come to New England.

We had a wonderful stay in Boothbay! I love that we could stay on the water at the pond while also being able to see the ocean. We even saw a bald eagle for the first time across the pond! The property was clean, had everything we needed (including fishing poles) and was well stocked. I would stay here again!
