East Side Cove

The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Check in and check out process was very easy. We loved how fast it was to walk downtown.

This property is in a great location with a great view of Boothbay Harbor & is clean. The home needs updating. The queen bed was very uncomfortable as was the living room sofa. Both sagged. The kitchen dishes & pots & pans are quite old & need to be cleaned out & updated. The carpet needs to be replaced. The 1/2 bath is a toilet only in the basement in a dark part of the old basement with no light. Nice washer & dryer but located in the old/dated basement with steep stairs. We made the decision to leave the rental 2 nights early to be able to get some comfortable sleep. The bathroom was updated 7 years ago per the family owner & it was fine. We originally rented for 11 days and it’s probably fine for a long weekend but was not comfortable for a longer stay. The enclosed porch was a favorite place for us to relax & read. We were grateful the home is dog friendly. This property will be great just by updating the furniture, cleaning out the kitchen cupboards & replacing the dishes, glassware & pots & pans, replacing the queen mattress & sofa, a fresh paint job, adding a half bath on the main level & moving the washer & dryer upstairs.The rental company team were great to work with throughout the process. We would absolutely rent this property again with the changes we’ve recommended. But sleeping comfortably is an absolute must, especially for the price we paid.

From the moment of our arrival (personal greeting and walk through) felt very welcome and comfy. Our three kids, dog and us loved staying here. Plenty to do inside and outside the house. Very clean.

This clean, spacious home offers many bonus features and is within walking distance to so much! Most days we didn’t touch the car. Plenty of room for the family to spread out too. A few of our favorite things- We loved watching the harbor wake up every morning from the sunroom. Kayaking about the harbor was so fun- be aware of the tides before you head out. Walking the footbridge to great restaurants, shops. Our pups enjoyed exploring the shallow tidal waters! We would absolutely stay again. This place is a gem!

Perfect location to walk across bridge into town/take boat excursions; loved water/town views from sunroom/kitchen/ Wendy was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants/outings
