A perfect spot

This cozy dome home at the end of the road was the perfect spot for our stay in Boothbay. We especially loved the light filled and spacious living room for gathering and games. Eating dinner on the deck was divine. It's close proximity to the botanical gardens was another bonus. We will definitely stay here again.

Dome House Was Great for Dog Vacation

The house was perfect for our little barkers because it was secluded and comfortable. The BRLT trails are great and so many within a 20 mi radius. Maine is already very dog friendly.

A little slice of heaven

This place was amazing in every way! Make sure you set aside time to just be present and enjoy the seclusion! 3 Deer greeted us on the driveway on the way in and we saw them often. We came back midday for naps with our small children and came back to the water being in the inlet which was stunning and so peaceful to relax in a hammock overlooking the water. I would love to come back to this property if I visit Boothbay again! Location was also perfect! So close to so many attractions! We did a little of everything all about 5-20 minutes away.

Beautiful location near Boothsbay!

We stayed in October when the trees were gorgeous and the dome house is nestled in a wooded area. So pretty! Lots of room for everyone. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Sweet and quiet stay

The property was lovely. At the end of a quiet road, overlooking the water, the dome house was a lovely. It was an excellent home base to enjoy booth bay. Also being minutes from the botanical garden was awesome, we ended up going twice.

Secluded home with peace and tranquility

This was my second visit to the dome house and we had a great time again. This home is secluded and peaceful while still close to Boothbay Harbor shops and restaurants. We enjoyed the outside fire pit every evening.

Perfect little getaway

This home is situated close to dozens of preserves with hiking trails of all sorts (ocean front, pine forest, steep and challenging). It sits on a tidal river that our dog just loved. The forest near the home also has some fun, short hiking available in it. We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely go back to this charming little area!

Feels secluded yet so close to town

The house was so charming, clean, and comfortable. We couldn’t have found a better place to stay during our visit to the Boothbay area. The Dome House is off the beaten track, right on a tidal river, which made every day and every hour a new private view. Be sure to schedule time to simply be. This is the perfect house for it!

Dome House

Beautiful house with lots of charm….. gorgeous views from the deck. I was texted when we arrived to make sure we were happy with the cleanliness of the home and we were . House was supplied with plenty of towels, blankets, toiletries, cushions for outdoor furniture and games. We stayed here with our dogs who loved it as well. We would stay here again

Off the beaten trail

If you want the true maine coastal cottage experience this is it, although it had more conveniences than are strictly necessary, like the dishwasher. At the end of the road, its best calling card is the peace and quiet. What a place for contemplation and relaxation!

A Happy Place

Sitting on the deck watching the tide go in and out, breathing in the forest and the sea, cooking meals in the open kitchen, playing games in the den on rainy days, walking the dog on Tamarack trail, kayaking around the islands, walking to the general store on Hogdon island, chatting with the neighbors…..

Short Stay in Our Favourite Area

The unit was pleasant and the bed was extremely comfortable, even the pillows. The Living Room Furniture leaves alot to be desired, expecially as we are older adults., and want to comfortable during the evening! Otherwise, it was a good place to hang out while visiting our family and where we got married 5 years ago (Spruce Point Inn).

Nice quiet house

The house was very clean and quiet at the end of a dirt road. It overlooked a tidal inlet off of the river. We enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water. The house was close to town, groceries etc. There were neighbors across the inlet but they were quiet. The beds were comfortable. I would enjoy staying there again.

Dome away from home

We had an amazing time at the Dome House. We spent a few days here watching the tide come in and out, and eating almost all our meals out on the deck. The house is very comfortable, the wifi was fast and the kitchen was easy to use. We even managed to host a couple of friends over for a dinner of scallops and lobster. As it is pet friendly, we took our dog to all the local preserves and especially liked the views at Porter Preserve. It's pretty close to Boothbay Harbor, so we went into town a few times for drinks and shopping. (We found a bookstore where all the books are $1!) It's so quiet and peaceful at night, and I enjoyed stargazing--both outside and through a skylight in the loft. The house was beautifully decorated with the owners art, and it was fun to match some of the paintings to views from the kitchen!

Peaceful getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this unique home. Nestled at the end of a dirt road, it was a perfect setting to relax and unwind. The house was quite comfortable and charming filled with the owner’s beautiful artwork. We had dinner at Water Street Kitchen and Bar in Wiscasset (known as the prettiest village in Maine) and highly recommend it. The food was excellent with atmosphere to match. Boothbay Harbor is a fun walkable town with something for everyone. We took a drive to Ocean Point and on our way back grabbed a couple lobster rolls at Ocean Point Marina, then headed back to the Dome home to enjoy on the deck overlooking the water. We were lucky to have perfect weather for it. Breakfast the next morning at East Boothbay General Store was delicious…egg sandwiches, homemade donuts, muffins and breads. Just a short walk away is Kerr + Jones Fine Art & Craft. I wanted everything in there! And don’t miss Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens where you can see giant trolls by artist Thomas Dambo. Thanks for sharing your little piece of paradise 😊
