You can also go for a ride down the road to the Boothbay Land Trust for more coastal serenity and nature trails.

Super stay
Property was recently constructed and was an exceptional floor-plan. All new appliances and beautiful walk in shower in the master BR. The property was clean and the property mgr was exceptional in corresponding to my questions. Very close to downtown Boothbay Harbor and the shops and restaurants. We had our sm-mid size dog on the trip with us. The property mgr does want to know the size of dog before you come as they don't allow large dogs. Or that's the impression I got. Will want to come again and stay longer.

Amazing house and setting
We had a wonderful time enjoying Jake and Jenn's home! Loved the bright open interior and amenities as well as the deck and surrounding woods and wetlands. Lots to do close by - even in the rain. You do have to be careful walking on the road in front as can be fair amount of traffic at times; after short distance will be on quieter roads including the walk to Porters Preserve (amazing spot!).

Perfect getaway
This was a perfect getaway for us. The home was lovely and very clean. Had everything we could need/want including a sweet welcome gift from the owners. Home is exactly as described and pictured. Location is convenient to everything in the area. We gave 4 stars for location only because we couldn't walk the neighborhood as there aren't sidewalks and it's a somewhat busy road. But having said that there are endless trails and paths everywhere to walk. We visited a different one every day and there were plenty more that we didn't get to. We definitely would recommend this home and would stay here again for sure. Boothbay Harbor is a special area. We've been here several times and will return again.

Woodland Hollow Cottage Boothbay Vacation
We had a wonderful stay at the very cozy cottage. Every possible amenity was provided which speaks to the thoughtful owners concern that we thoroughly enjoy our experience. The house is perfectly situated in Boothbay which allows easy access to two of our favorite activities: hiking Boothbay Region Land Trust trails and the Maine Coastal Botanical Gardens and eating out at the fine Boothbay restaurants (although for all you cooks, the house has all state of the art appliances you could possibly ask for). All in all we had a very comfortable stay thanks to owners Jake and Jenn.

Our stay was wonderful. The cabin was very clean. Everything was provided. We enjoyed sitting around the fire on the cool evenings. Boothbay is a friendly little town. My husband and I loved hiking the trails. Jenn was very helpful providing info on where we could launch our boat. We kook forward to a return trip.

Exactly what we were looking for
The location of this home is perfect. Close to Boothbay Harbor but far enough away for some peace and quiet. Porter Preserve, Boothbay Harbor Land Trust are beautiful with amazing views and great easy hiking. Jenn and Jake did not miss a thing. They are great hosts. Their property has everything you could possibly need. The fire pit is a great way to end the day. We felt so comfortable and even saw a few deer. We hope to be back real soon. Thank you for a great vacation.

Felt at home while exploring a gorgeous part of Maine
The house is gorgeous. Extremely clean and well equipped. The best part for us was the beds were firm and comfortable. We slept just as good as we do at home which you don’t get often when traveling. Our 8 and 6 yr old enjoyed the roomy upstairs loft all to themselves. The stairs to the loft can be tricky at first, but you get used to them. The fire pit was perfect for after dinner and we took advantage of the front porch for several meals. The stovetop was a bit tricky at first. You can’t use a burner unless the pan covers the entire burner due to sensors. So if you are trying to percolate espresso the old fashion way :), it won’t work. The owners graciously leave stocked pods for the Nespresso machine. Boothbay harbor and the surrounding towns are all lovely to explore. Our highlights were paddle boarding on Knickerbocker Lake, Ocean Point and Hendricks Head Beach. You can’t go wrong with this house or this part of Maine.

A great family retreat.
We had a wonderful weeks stay at Jenn and Jake's place. It was perfect for a family of four. The place was extremely clean and well equipped for everything our family needed to have a comfortable stay. The location was quiet and private, yet close to all the stores the area had to offer. The owners were also very responsive, and cordial, when minor problems did arise.

Peaceful Paradise
This was exactly what we were searching for! Perfect for our family with young children, there was plenty of room inside for games on rainy days and room to run outside. The fire pit was wonderful to gather around on the chilly nights and check out the Milky Way. We walked the trails at the Porter Preserve nightly and loved exploring the rocks and beach. The cabin is beautiful and clean with everything we needed for the week and is close enough to everything to be convenient but far enough out to be peaceful and quiet. We had an amazing time and hated to leave. Jenn and Jake you have done a wonderful job and we will definitely stay again if we return to the area.

Lovely hospitality
Every detail was considered, amenities thought of, special touches, and perfectly clean. Our family had a lovely stay, enjoying dinners on the deck and nights by the fire. Our only issue was with the construction of the house, which seemed less than desirable in certain instances. Every step that someone takes in the house can be felt in all other rooms. Every time a door closes the entire house shakes. The screen door slams very loud. These aspects are quite unnerving and do detract from the peaceful nature of the environment. Indoor dining is also not ideal but thankfully the weather held up and we could eat outside. The overall stay was quite lovely and you can tell the owners have gone above and beyond with all of their considerations and details.

Amazing stay in Maine
We couldn’t have asked for a better place. From the nice touches of the nespresso coffee, a fully furnished kitchen to cook with and everything you need for the basics it was perfect. The fixtures were all fresh and clean and the cabin felt modern and cozy. I would highly recommend this as its close to the botanical gardens and get regular visits from deer and other wildlife. Our only small recommendation is more comfortable beds. The mattresses were very stiff and hurt our backs, but otherwise an amazing stay.

We had an amazing time at Jenn & Jake's beautiful home. They have truly thought of everything in the house, and has all the comforts and then some of being in your own home! Two different style coffee makers, high end pots and pans, super comfortable mattresses! All within walking distance to Porters Preserve which was a treasure, and Trevetts market! We spent most of our time on the large secluded deck enjoying steamed lobsters from Pinkhams Market / drinking coffee, just hanging out! If you happen to find a week open at this home, I would not hesitate... Its one of the best home and locations we've ever stayed at! Thank you to Jenn and Jake for sharing this with us!
