Ambleside in Boothbay Harbor Maine! Perfect for a warm and cozy Gardens Aglow!
Ask about our monthly Winter rental rate! Situated on the Eastside of the quintessential Maine harbor town of Boothbay Harbor, this home is just a short walk across the historic footbridge to the village or to the ocean views of Spruce Point. From the amazing town of Boothbay Harbor to the quaint twin-villages of Newcastle and Damariscotta, you will be close to all the area has to offer. Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Harbor cruises, the Maine State Aquarium, Boothbay Railway Village, beaches, hiking in the many area preserves, shopping, excellent restaurants- all within 5 minutes!
Completely renovated and totally new, with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, everyone will enjoy all the comforts and amenities this home has to offer. Relax with a book in the sweet window seat or the hidden reading nook on a rainy day, play board games together, or catch the big game- with 2 living areas, there is plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Maine vacation at best!
Enjoy beach-combing at Ocean Point, or shopping at the amazing local shops in the area. Hikes through the many preserves (15 just on the peninsula!) are just minutes away (Porter Preserve is a favorite) and Barrett’s Park nearby has an excellent swimming area. End the day with a meal cooked on the grill while relaxing on the back covered deck while listening to the boats coming and going with their catch of the day. Enjoy stargazing while roasting smores in the firepit and relaxing in the adirondack chairs surrounding the fire.
The kitchen is a chef's delight with a large island for preparation and serving and a 5 burner gas range for putting together a truly gourmet meal including a pot-filler for large pots. A large convection oven helps to make meal preparation quick and easy. A French door refrigerator provides ample storage for as many lobsters as you would like to eat! Baking is enjoyable with a mixer, food processor, and blender all at your fingertips. Oh, and beverages! Our beverage station provides a great way to chill your cold drinks in the beverage fridge or make a delicious cup of coffee for sipping. Enjoy your dinner at the large dining room table or on the covered porch.
Fresh, clean beautiful linens welcome you when you lay your head down after a full day for a sweet, relaxing sleep. You will be ready for all of the adventure the next day has to offer - shopping and exploring or a relaxing day at the beach!
And, if you are lucky enough to work remotely, why not do it in a beautiful place? Our separate office with blazing internet will help you get the job done.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We had a very short but sweet stay at Ambleside, just an overnight, but found it to be beautiful, spotless, and wonderfully appointed for a stay of any length. The Welcome Basket was a lovely - and much appreciated - surprise! We definitely recommend it to anyone staying in the area!

Excellent stay all around. The property is freshly renovated and decorated and is just beautiful. Everything was spotlessly clean and in great condition when we arrived and we appreciated the well equipped kitchen for cooking at the house. The screened in porch was a great feature which allowed us to enjoy being outside without being eaten by mosquitos. Additionally, the location is perfect, outside of downtown just enough to be quiet but just a short walk from Lobsterman's Wharf (.4 miles) and a few other restaurants and the footbridge to the downtown area (.8 miles). I would definitely book this property again.
