Recently Renovated Home Minutes from Ocean Point
Bay Ridge Cottage is in picturesque East Boothbay, just across Ocean Point Road from beautiful Linekin Bay. A short drive down the road is the treasure of the region, Ocean Point, a rare public access to Maine`s spectacular rocky coastline. Residents and guests can walk, run, cycle or drive a lovely 2-mile oceanfront loop called the Shore Road.
Guests will find that Bay Ridge Cottage has recently undergone a complete renovation. In addition to the kitchen, dining, living, full bath, and music rooms on the first floor with a beautiful large front porch to enjoy the natural environment!
There are 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. Bedroom one has a king-size bed, bedroom 2 has a queen-size bed, and bedroom 3 has a queen-size bed and twin bunk beds. Together, the bedrooms can accommodate 6 adults and 2 children. For the fun of it, children (or anyone else) can take advantage of the two roll-away beds (with mattresses) in the bunk house, just across the breezeway from the kitchen.
Roughly 100 yards from the house is the entrance to Linekin and Burley Preserves, two adjacent preserves that in total protect 138 wooded acres and 651 feet of waterfront. Here you can hike the nearly 3 miles of trails over a rocky ridge to the Damariscotta River. The trails wind through a forest of old hardwood and pine, and along streams and ponds, from the Linekin Bay side of the peninsula to the Damariscotta side. Virtually all the other Boothbay region’s attractions - Maine State Aquarium, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, beaches, boating, and restaurants - are only minutes away.
Just a 3 minute drive down Murray Hill Road is Linekin Bay Boat Launch where guests are welcome to launch kayaks or small personal boats. Don`t have a kayak? Contact Maine Kayak in downtown Boothbay Harbor and they can deliver a kayak straight to the property.
Private driveway with space for 3 cars.
A Sea Maine team member will meet you upon check-in to deliver keys, give a tour of the home, and answer any questions you may have.

Wonderful relaxing get away
It was a gorgeous house in great condition. It was quite large for just me and my husband, but the fenced in yard was great for our dogs. The location was close to the ocean and some good restaurants. Short drive to the downtown area.

Family stay in Maine
It was an excellent trip. The house was outstanding, clean and perfect size for my family. The area was great. My only problem was the communication because the Verbo app did not work properly. Wendy and Judith were wonderful hosts

Fine Place to Hesitate
Stayed a week here. Had a great time. The house was comfortable and well supplied. The only issue we had was there was a lot of traffic noise at night due to road construction. Recommend this home for any family get away !

Family vacation
Nicely appointed home with easy access to nearby activities. House has been renovated although stll has a warm cottage feel. Only downside was gas fireplace still being installed and not available. Also there is no acess to the river across the street as it is all private property. There is a nature preserve within walking distance. The four of us had plenty of room to relax and enjoyed cooking our own seafood in the well equipped kitchen.
