My family had a great stay at Deer Creek Cabin, nestled in the little Sprucewold neighborhood of Boothbay Harbor. It suited our needs perfectly—a master bedroom for me & husband; a cute loft with two beds for my 12 & 15 year olds; & a futon-style couch for my 17 yr old. Perhaps most importantly, we were permitted to bring our (very well-behaved, clean, non-destructive!) dog with us, who seemed to love the cabin & property as much as we did!
Leslie & Laura were top hosts, greeting us upon arrival & then later checking in on our needs. They really thought of everything, which was great. A fully equipped kitchen, linens & towels, washer & dryer (huge when traveling with kids!) & for those rainy nights, Netflix. They also made sure our dog had food/water bowls & left a little goody bag for her, which was very considerate!
We enjoyed the solitude of the property, yet appreciated that we were a three minute drive to the village center. We also took a nice, easy hike, located just up the road. It really is the best of both worlds. You can go explore the cute shops & restaurants of Boothbay, but go retire to the woods, away from the hustle & bustle. We also had access to the private beach, which was nice.
I’d like to thank Laura & Leslie for making it affordable. All too often, a family trip can be cost prohibitive. This was top lodging, & suitable for family budgets. Do not hesitate to rent this cozy little cabin. It’s probably even more appealing in the fall foliage!
