Great View and Location but a bit lacking in other ways
Posted Oct. 9, 2023 on HomeAwayIt is a cute cabin but needs some serious maintenance.
The entry slope would be improved by stepping stones along the very appropriate gravel path. It is a steep path and the stones can be slippery and awkward. The inside front door would benefit from a "wipe-your-feet" mat. The microwave, dishwasher and stove are nicely upgraded although we only used the microwave as we were just 2 and mostly ate out. There are 2 good heaters, one up and one down but they do not have fans so they do not heat up the larger spaces. Do heat a bedroom with door closed. Since there is no washer or dryer it is difficult to dry any clothing that gets wet in the rain or is washed by hand. I had to wash one bath towel by hand and it took 3 days to dry. Some clothing I hung very near the stationary heater and still took 2 days to dry. The house had been cleaned but only in main areas: Kitchen and bathroom and wood floors. Lower shelves, exposed wooden areas etc were very dusty and/or full of old spider webs, droppings, dead insects etc. There was nothing available to clean those spaces but paper towels.
There was no entry instructions sheet posted nor notes for the house. When the breaker tripped as we tried to use the third heater for warmth we were able to find it and restore power but it was not marked. As many of the electrical outlets appear to be just on one circuit that should be noted. The shower is very difficult to regulate water temperature.

Great Location

Decent
Posted Jul. 16, 2022 on HomeAwayWe love the cabin but were disappointed since our last visit. The double bed fell to the ground when I sat on it. Upon further investigation we found no slates under it. My husband put it back on the bedframe. Thede was a window with no glass and just plastic staped to it. Also the screen door had a hole in it that was there the last time we were there. 4 yrs ago. There were TONS of ants on the second floor.
The cabin was clean when we entered and we loved the cabin life. The toaster was broken but maintenance delivered one immediately. The coffee pot was old and made terrible coffee. It, too, was same one 4 yrs ago which did work well then.

Very peaceful pretty view of the water. The wood burning stove was not working properly, we tried many times with different wood. Without heat in the cabin, it was pretty chilly at night. The space heater was helpful, but the circuit breaker could only handle it and nothing else requiring electric at the same time!

Cute cottage
Posted Oct. 29, 2020 on HomeAwayVery clean and cozy. Loved the atmosphere and all the cute cottage decor. At low tide you can go down to the shore and enjoy the sandy/rocky shore. A quick 5 minute drive to downtown was perfect for us. Close yet private. There were kayaks under the deck that we would have liked to use but they were locked up. It’s smaller than it looks online but definitely sufficient. We were 3 adults and a toddler and it worked for us. Would stay here again soon.

A great place for our getaway
Posted Aug. 25, 2020 on HomeAwayThis home is rustic and more of a really comfy cabin than a house but it was perfect for us and our two teens. The water view and access if wonderful. It really had everything we needed. I would recommend replacing the metal deck table and chairs which were really unsightly and the broken chair was a hazard. Be aware that there is no privacy between the rooms or the bathroom. Every sound is heard loud and clear but its fine for a couple or family with kids.

Cozy home in excellent location
Posted Jul. 9, 2020 on HomeAwayThis home was very comfortable and cozy for our family of four. It is small, there are some tight spaces in the bathroom and you may need to duck your head when coming down the stairs! But it is full of seaside charm and has stunning views. Very easy to access the Boothbay peninsula and the hikes, shops and restaurants.
