Snug and toasty by the fire, you can watch storms sweep across the bay, sea-smoke if the dew point is right, seagulls riding the updrafts when the wind is out of the west, and an occasional eagle. In Boothbay Harbor, just three miles away, at least one of the best restaurants is open every day and there is plenty of parking; the pace is a little slower and the attention a little warmer. There are many events around the holidays including Gardens Aglow through the end of December at the Botanical Gardens when the whole town is decorated as well, and the historic Opera House has programs (not opera) year-round.

Possible Fees:

Linen Service: Many people bring their own linens, or you may use ours for $60 per stay ($35 for just two people). This includes sheets, towels, and kitchen linens for the whole house and all your guests for your entire time. You are welcome to use as many of our pillows and blankets, provided to make the beds to suit your own desires, whether or not you bring your own linens. Bed sizes are a queen and two twins that we can put together on advance request to make a king.

Pet Fee for shorter stays: For one month or less we charge $350 for one dog which is the maximum allowed. $100 of that is partially or wholly refundable depending on damage, grounds clean-up, and how much time we must spend cleaning specifically after the animal on your departure. No cats! For a multiple-month stay, the pet deposit is $600 limited to one dog with $100 of that possibly refundable.

State tax: We are required to collect 9% lodging tax for the state on vacation rentals. We will figure the correct amount and include it in your contract.

Cleaning fee for One-night stay. If you must deviate from our two-night minimum and stay just one night ($200/night in winter for 1 – 2 people), there will be an added $80 cleaning fee.

Credit Cards: All rates shown are our lowest prices for payment only by cash or check. To pay by any other method, please inquire about our regular season rates and let us know what method you prefer to use.

The second quarter of the rent will be due January 1st with the balance (remaining half) of the rent to be paid on your arrival along with linen and pet fees.

Cancellation and Re-booking Fee: One-half the total rent is payable in advance as a deposit to hold your time; the remainder is due on arrival.
