A Sweet Little Guest Cottage

Tucked away on Southport Island is this little guest house for two. Located just across the swing bridge from Boothbay Harbor, Little Nick offers one bedroom, a bright and sunny living area, galley style kitchen, and a deck with peeks of the water.

Downtown Boothbay Harbor is just a 7-minute drive away. Robinson's Wharf is right around the corner where you can experience fresh seafood and live music on Sundays. Periwinkle Cottage is located next door to Little Nick. Perfect for two couples who would like to travel together but have their own place!

Dogfish Head Beach is 3 1/2 miles away. The Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens is a quick 10-minute drive, and laundry is located 3 miles away.

Guests have access to the entire cottage. Please note this cottage does not have cable TV but does have a TV that can connect to your Netflix account.

IMPORTANT:
To ensure peace of mind during your stay, we offer two options for damage protection: a small, one-time non-refundable Accidental Damage Waiver (our most convenient and guest-preferred option) or a fully refundable Security Deposit, returned after your stay if no damage is reported. Once your booking is confirmed, you’ll be prompted to complete this step.
Courtesy quiet hours start at 10 p.m. per local ordinance.
Smoking is NOT permitted anywhere on the property.

Perfect harbor getaway

Close to the harbor and schooner cruises out of Boothbay Harbor! Right across from Robinsons wharf with amazing Maine seafood! Great for day trips to Damariscotta, Bath, and Pemaquid Lighthouse.

The property is absolutely exquisite, both in terms of proximity to local attractions as well as well as being a comfortable, quiet place to stay. It’s a small cabin, but if you don’t need a ton of space it’s comfortable. No bells and whistles but all of our needs were met; exactly what we were looking for!

Great location small cottage

We had a very nice time. The cottage is small, as described. The water was hot and plentiful. An instruction page in the cottage notebook explaining how to use the tv would be very helpful.

Nice Stay at Little Nick

The cottage was was warm and cozy in the late-season Maine weather. Check-ing/Check-out was a breeze. Southport's quiet charm is a stone's throw from Boothbay Harbor's more active downtown. Proximity to Barter Island and Wiscasset are also appealing. Rockland for the art museum and galleries are a scenic hour's drive. highly recommend Little Nick.

Out of the traffic but close to town.

We liked the cottage. Just big enough for two, though we are large and the shower is a tight fit. lol. We did leave several rolls of toilet paper so the next guest won't need to buy in advance. No complaints.

Just-Right Cottage

We have visited Down East Maine many times, but this was our first time to stay on the Midcoast. Little Nick on Southport Island was the perfect home base. The location was convenient for all of our explorations. We enjoyed seeing the boats go out from the harbor each morning. The kitchen is compact, but it worked great for our meal preps. We were pleasantly surprised at how well-equipped it was. The cottage is well-maintained, and we loved our time in it!

Just TV needs to be adjusted to be more servicable. Owner & agents could not have been nicer or more helpful.
