The covered porch and boathouse deck provide perfect places to relax while watching the bridge open for passing boats and listening to live music from Robinson's Wharf across the cove. Walk there to dine in, or take out lobsters, other Down East offerings, and landlubbers' fare.

Wonderful Cabin on Southport Island
This cabin is just right for a couple. There is a large bedroom with a king bed and a small bedroom with a single bed for storing luggage and clothing. The kitchen is well equipped. The view from the deck is so picturesque. It overlooks a small harbor with Robinsons restaurant. The tide varies for 8 to 10 feet and is fun to watch coming in and going out. There is a swing bridge which can be seen from the dock. The cabin is just a couple of miles from downtown Boothbay Harbor, but is in a quiet area. It is just a few miles from the Maine Botanical Garden, which should not be missed. We will stay again!

Little Oasis
This cottage is so peaceful. It is exactly like the pictures. We were able to have coffee out by the water every morning. We walked to Robinsons Wharf restaurant and had dinner on the outside deck. Judy was great! She met us at check-in and gave us a tour of the cottage and outdoor spaces. She also gave us information needed to know where everything is located, from grocery stores to leisurely things. We will definitely be back! Donna
