Stunning Views with Walks to the Beach and a short walk to pay and play tennis

Located in East Boothbay on breathtaking Ocean Point sits this traditional cottage with three porches. Enjoy the view from the screened porch off the kitchen, the covered porch at the front of the house, or on cool days enjoy the view from inside the cozy windowed porch. Inside you'll find 5 bedrooms, 2 bath and stainless appliances. ​

Built in the 1880s, Three Porches was at one time a lodging for summer visitors called "Millinocket Lodge". It became our owner's family summer home in the early 1950s.

It's a 15 minute walk to Grimes Cove where you can swim and walk along the rocks. When you are ready to leave the Point, it's a 7-mile drive to downtown Boothbay Harbor.

We are available 24/7 during your stay.
Courtesy quiet hours start at 10 p.m. per local ordinance.
Smoking is NOT permitted anywhere on the property.

This was a quaint, lovely home. Everything was just as described and very clean. The host was helpful and quick to respond. The area is amazing! We didn't want to leave. I hope to come back to Maine soon just to stay here longer!

Incredible location
It is a great house. I would suggest having twin beds in one or two of the second floor bedrooms would give greater flexibility. The second floor front bedroom, on the left facing the ocean, is pressing on the electrical outlet. But other than those minor issues, bravo!!!

Amazing!
The view is unbeatable. This is an authentic Maine cottage. The floor plan has tons of space. The bedrooms are well outfitted with beautiful bedding and spectacular views from every room. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you might need or want. I also really appreciated having starter supplies in the kitchen and bathrooms- truly thought if everything you might need. The team was very friendly, responsive and accommodating to our special requests. I will definitely rent again and can’t wait to go back.

Wonderful Visit to Three Porches
When you think about staying in Maine, your mind automatically goes to the water with a rustic feel and becomes one with your surroundings. Well, we can tell you Three Porches gave you this in spades. It’s a beautiful setting right on the harbor in an older home that has been kept up with all your possible needs. We used the house to stage a family reunion with 10 of us at the home, and at no time did we feel cramped or on top of each other. The serine setting made you feel one with nature, but you were only 15 minutes from Boothbay Harbor, so there was always something to do. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could have wanted to prepare meals, the only thing missing was the lobster. We are already looking forward to staying there again next year.

Perfect location and a welcoming home
With 9 people to satisfy, we departed with very fond memories of a wonderful week. The home was clean, well-adorned and nicely furnished. All bedrooms had ocean views and the top room even had an air-conditioner. There was plenty of warm water available for the entire clan for showers. The kitchen was well furnished and the porch was an ideal place for watching the lobster boats in the morning and chatting with the passers-by at all other times. One can see two lighthouses from this same porch. The Ocean Point Inn is just a short stroll away for any meals out or late-night drinks.
