Mes amis et moi avons passé un merveilleux moment à la maison et nous avons vraiment apprécié Boothbay Harbor!

Great location, very accommodating, we had a fantastic time!

Great location in Bootbay Harbor.

Nous avons eu un très bon moment !! L'espace était confortable et dans un endroit incroyable! Dan et Linda étaient très serviables. nous avons eu une grande expérience globale.

Great location to be in downtown Boothbay Harbor. Parking spot also awesome...The apt. was somewhat difficult to (URL HIDDEN) is behind another house. The drive is to your left just past the Mung Bean store. Dan (who lives in the upper unit) spent extra time with us sharing points of interest in the area---a lot of which we did and loved. The apt is well stocked. The refrigerator is a tall 'dorm' size..functional and big enough for a short stay. There is access from the outside to the deck. Quiet neighborhood. Direct Tv with movie channels was an unexpected bonus. No DVD player. No AC but a lot of fans which were more than adequate. Dan can be reached via cell anytime and was very helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Un appartement extrêmement bien placé au cœur de Boothbay Harbor. Décoration très kitsch, cuisine encombrée, lit pour 1 personne peu confortable et douche miniature. Mais le séjour fut très agréable quand même !

Nous avons apprécié notre séjour. Emplacement très pratique.

Great stay, very centrally located, good facilities, clean and comfortable beds. We would stay again.

We could not have asked for a more convenient and comfy spot from which to visit family and friends in Boothbay Harbor. Alijah is a warm and attentive host. The room is quiet and comfortable and private. In short a great place to stay!

Clean, good location.

Very nice clean and close to everything

In an ideal spot, but there was no locks on bedroom door or bathroom door. Our second night we were kept up by a late night phone conversation in the kitchen next to bedroom. Had a long drive the following day, and we needed to leave early in the morning. However, rooms were clean and Alijah was friendly.

Extremely hospitable. Responded to our messages immediately. Welcoming.

Alijah was a huge help for us providing us with many areas of interest around Booth Bay. She was easy to contact and quick to respond to questions we had. The house is very close to downtown so we didn't drive during our entire stay. She's a wonderful host!

Alijah was easy to communicate with. A good, no frills room for a single person or couple who want to explore the nearby area. The artwork/decor of the house is eclectic. Bedroom and bathroom are off the kitchen and feels private. Very quiet location. I appreciated the driveway for parking, being walking distance to the harbor was a plus.

Easy going and helpful hostess. The place was close to everything. We enjoyed our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed this cozy condo. It was very comfortable, clean, and ideally located within close walking distance to restaurants, water front and night life. The kitchen is small but well equipped. David is a lobsterman and was kind enough to share his lobster catch with us and better yet, they had been steamed - so fresh and tasty. If we ever return to Booth Bay Harbor, we would definitely stay at the Skysuite.

My boyfriend and I spent two nights in Deanne's place and it was just as advertised! It was incredibly convenient to all there is to do and see in Boothbay Harbor, just steps away. It was cute and clean and well appointed. Deanne was responsive and available throughout the booking and during our stay. We would definitely go back!

Place was beautiful, literally 30 second walk to downtown booth bay harbor. My girlfriend and I came up and stayed for a nice weekend and had a great time. Good call on the Roku with Netflix as well! Having the coffee maker in the place was key for sunday morning relaxation.

You will love it. Great for a couple or single person . The apartment is extremely clean and looks just like the pictures. We were very comfortable and night time is extremely quiet. We look forward to staying there again.

espace très mignon. Sur la rue principale, à distance de marche de la ville .... en fait juste autour du coin. Super clean.has petite cuisine. L'épicerie est à 5 minutes donc nous avons acheté la nourriture et pris le petit déjeuner le grenier.

We loved the cleanliness of the apartment, the location was fantastic, Deanne provided really lovely soaps in the bathroom and kitchen, and high quality staples in the kitchen. The parking lot in the back yard during peak summer months is a little much, but inside the apartment was super quiet, the bed is beautifully comfortable, and we were very comfortable.

Great time in Boothbay. Deanne was great and the Sky Suite was clean and walkable to all of Boothbay. I highly recommend.

If you are visiting Boothbay Harbor as a couple this is perfect. Even though you are 2 minutes from Commercial St. It's quite. We had everything we needed. Our hosts were very responsive and even arranged for acouple of lobsters (cooked!) at a very good price.

Beautiful home and great views of the harbor, this is a perfect place to stay if you're looking for some peace and relaxation in Boothbay Harbor!

Thanks for allowing us to stay at a great place

Wonderful cottage on the bay and a short walk to town. Recently updated and very clean. Accurately described. Turnkey was very easy to work with.

The house was really lovely. Very tastefully renovated. It was very comfortable for 4 people and has a great building detached from the main house that allows for a quiet get away. The location was perfect. Quiet but waking distance to the town. The place was super clean with fresh linens and towels. We were sad to leave. Thank you for a great experience.

Such a wonderful find. Close to downtown and very clean and well decorated. Rooms and beds were very comfortable and everything was new. Already planning our next stay!

Perfect rental! Pictures don't do the view justice!

Great place, great location - walk up a hill and back down and you'll be in the center of the town in 5 minutes!

Stephanie's Mom was our host, and she gave us great advice on where to swim and have dinner. They graciously lent us their backgammon set when we asked about games, which was great fun for us to play while sitting outside enjoying the view. We absolutely loved the deck house and very much want to return for another visit to Boothbay Harbor. I was also grateful for the flexibility Stephanie showed me in the booking process for this reservation. Thanks again!

The apartment was perfect for our weekend getaway. Beautiful location across the harbor from busy and touristy Boothbay, yet a five minute walk to restaurants. As others have noted, the deck is awesome! We live in midcoast Maine, so we didn't need a lot of direction from our very kind hostess. We felt taken care of, but were left to our privacy. We'd love to stay here again! Thank you!

The Deckhouse was a very special find. The space was cozy and airy and its location was stupendous. It is "right" across the footbridge over the harbor. The roomy deck offers an excellent harbor view. By crossing the bridge we could be in the center of Boothbay Harbor with its restaurants and shops, but be out of the frenzy that the town can become in the summer. We enjoyed July 4 fireworks from the comfort and privacy of the deck. In the morning we walked across the bridge and were shortly aboard a boat to Mohegan Island for a day trip. Margaret and Stephen were gracious, generous and personable host (Margaret is also a great baker). A perfect stay in a perfect place with perfect people. John

Great location and great view!

We had a very pleasant stay in Stephanies apartment. The Location is just perfect for having a quick stroll through Boothbayharbor but our personal favorite was sitting on the porch and enjoying the magnificent sunset. The furniture is a bit on the older side, but around the apartment are a lot of nice hiking trails and national parks, so you don't spend that much time anyway.

This was our first time visiting Boothbay Harbor and the place was perfect. It was situated right on the harbor for a wonderful and fully unobstructed view. The wraparound deck was a really nice feature of the place. Stephanie and Margaret were excellent hosts and the place was in great condition when we arrived. We will definitely seek this place out again in the future.

This apartment was in the best location. A few minutes to cross the footbridge right into where all the shops and restaurants were. Apartment was clean and very welcoming

My wife and I stayed at Stephanie's property for a few nights, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Stephanie was an excellent host and communicated with us clearly before and during our visit. The property was clean, and really we could not beat 1) its location next to the footbridge (just steps away from the shops and restaurants downtown), and 2) the gorgeous view of the harbor. We actually saved money because we didn't want to leave the porch to go out to eat! Stephanie also brought us over some homemade desserts, which was so nice of her to do and they tasted delicious! We agree with a previous review left on this property that we don't want more people to find out about it because we selfishly want this house to always be available when we want to return to Boothbay! If we had to note anything for others to keep in mind when staying here, it would be that the shower is small. Minor details in the grand scheme of what you get for the price of this beautiful home. Thank you, Stephanie!

While centrally situated in the heart of Boothbay Harbor, a major tourist area, the apartment was did not live up to its pictures and living space. Kitchen was poorly stocked; the bedroom and bathroom very small; and the bed was extremely soft and uncomfortable (one had to sleep on the uncomfortable couch). One can get better value for the money staying in Boothbay .

The location is WONDERFUL—just at the edge of the touristy area of Boothbay Harbor. You can walk everywhere (avoiding the expensive parking). We saved money as well by making some of our meals in in the apartment kitchen, which includes all major appliances, a set of dishes, and silverware. The apartment was very clean. The neighborhood was quiet and seems very safe. The apartment seems to be a work in progress. Before you book it for a visit, you might want to confirm that it has been updated a bit. As mentioned in the listing, there is no air-conditioning, thus it would be helpful if the windows were made easy to open and fitted with appropriate-sized screens (to let in the cool Maine night air and keep out the infamous mosquitoes.) There is a large box fan, but it is a bit noisy. The stove needs repair, as one burner stopped working while we were there. With the above updates, we would definitely recommend it at as a comfortable convenient place to stay for a reasonable price in a lovely popular tourist spot on the beautiful coast of Maine.

Troy and his staff provided such a pleasant stay for us. Their attention to every detail, great food, very comfortable well-appointed rooms, and unsurpassed cleanliness made things so enjoyable. Everyone at the inn is very friendly. We will definitely stay again when in Boothbay Harbor. The location is within easy walking distance of everything in town. Parking is very convenient, too.

Perfect location; perfect stay; perfect breakfast!

Great place to stay! Beautiful views, adorable rooms, delicious breakfast.

Jane is the best hostess you can expect. She is helpful, thinks of what you might need even before you do and offers a truly comfy place. The location is perfect because it is quiet while also really close to everything. We enjoyed our walks to and from the downtown area meeting neighbors and friendly people every time. Boothbay Harbor is a great town and Jane makes it nicer!

Jane nous a reçus chaleureusement. Le logement est très bien équipé. Il y avait tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Il est très bien placé pour aller se promener sur le port de Boothbay, voir les boutiques où aller au restaurant. Nous avons fait de merveilleuses excursions aux alentours : l'île de Monaghan, la pointe de Pemaquid et d'autres encore. Je vous recommande le logement de Jane. La communication avec elle est très facile. Jane a toujours répondu très vite à toutes les questions que nous lui avons posées. C'est un superbe endroit !

Jane's place is the perfect home base for exploring boothbay harbor & its surroundings. Super clean and charming with thoughtful snacks & nick nacks, it is an easy walk to all the action. Balmy days shuttle to squirrel island and sailing through the harbor were both amazing. Mine oyster apps and view are hard to beat(upstairs & all the way out the back). Sunset and beautiful homes at ocean point top notch. My mom & i had a blast. She even marvelled at the fact jane knits the same dish cloths! Jane is a great host. Cant wait to come back. Cheers, Don

Jane's home was perfect! Very comfortable and roomy, clean and supplied with everything you need for your stay no matter how long it may be. We made our own breakfast and enjoyed it on the sunporch. Although we didn't see much of Jane, she was responsive and left great directions. The home was a short walk to the downtown area for shops and restaurants. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Close to everything without being in the middle of it. Charming old residence with everything you will need for you stay. Modern laundry equipment is a plus. Absolutely perfect for a short (like ours) or extended stay. (Next time)

Jane's place was perfect for our weekend stay in Boothbay! She thought of everything a weekend traveler might forget (milk for coffee was in the fridge, extra shampoo in the shower) and she even set up a pack and play for our three month old. So very thoughtful. We loved having coffee on the sunporch and the short walk through town or over the footbridge to everything in Booth Bay. We hope to be back!

We had the best time at Janes's cottage. It was close to town but quiet. She had water and snacks for us. The washer and dryer is new and came in handy. She supplied the detergent. The bed was really comfortable. I would definitely recommend it and we will be back

I was in town to catch up with family. Jane's place was great - very close to downtown, cozy, and inviting. It was also dog friendly which was very important for me.

The apartment is in a perfect place for visiting Boothbay Harbor. It is a short (5 mins) walk to the heart of Boothbay Harbor and all of its restaurants and attractions. The apartment was very clean and our host Barbara made sure the check-in was easy and that our stay was comfortable. Barbara was a fantastic host and even left us a lovely welcome of chocolates and a bottle of wine. The apartment was a perfect size for a couple without children and the off street parking was very convenient. I would definitely recommend Barbara's apartment for any couple (or single person) travelling to Boothbay Harbor (or Maine in general).

Excellent location and very comfortable for a couple to stay. Barb and Rick were excellent and attentive hosts who provided great recommendations for local restaurants and things to do. Much is within a short walking distance. The Botanical Gardens are a "must see". We hope to return in the future.

L'appartement de Barbara était parfait pour mon séjour en lune de miel. Barbara m'a contacté bien avant une semaine avant notre voyage avec les instructions, les informations d'enregistrement (entrée du verrou du clavier - si pratique), et ses coordonnées, le cas échéant. Mon mari et moi n'étaient jamais allés au Maine et nous voulions aller et venir comme nous le souhaitons, explorer la ville et les environs, et vous détendre - l'endroit de Barbara était parfait pour nous! Nous avons acheté des épiceries pour prendre le petit-déjeuner et la cuisine était équipée de tout ce dont nous avions besoin. L'appartement se trouvait à moins de 10 minutes à pied de tous les magasins, restaurants et plus touristiques (croisières en bateau, pêche, etc.). L'appartement lui-même est petit, mais confortable et très propre. Le lit était très confortable. La salle de bain est un peu serrée, mais gérable, et elle a été équipée de tout ce dont nous avions besoin, y compris des savons, des shampooings et des tissus de bain. Nous avons demandé des serviettes supplémentaires après le 2ème jour car 2 ont été fournis pour notre séjour de 4 jours, mais Barbara n'était pas seulement rapide à répondre, mais rapide à fournir des serviettes supplémentaires en quelques heures! Nous n'avons jamais vu l'autre locataire ou nos hôtes - nous nous sentions privés, mais en sécurité en même temps. Je reviendrais certainement à la place de Barbara et à Boothbay dans le futur!

Barbara's place is just perfect. Clean, beautifully decorated,cosy and light. Very close to a gorgeous little town with shopping and restaurants and touristy experiences. All you need is provided and Barbara and Rick were most welcoming and happy to be of help if needed. I would definitely recommend this little find. So pleased we found it!!!

Je suis allé au port de Boothbay pour rendre visite à mon fils qui a un stage pour l'été sur l'île Squirrel. La place de Barbara était parfaite. Nous sommes allés au ferry, qui était au centre-ville, il y avait plusieurs restaurants merveilleux et de superbes magasins à distance de marche. Nous avons passé un bon moment, la première fois au Maine et c'était magnifique. L'appartement était confortable et bien équipé.

The apartment is wonderful! Loved the location and hospitality of the hosts. I highly recommend this location.

Perfect! The apartment was adorable and the bed was so comfortable. Everything was walkable and the downtown area was full of things to do. Barbara made everything so easy. Thank you!

Immaculately clean and neat- a really nice and comfortable place to stay. We enjoyed the bed, the shower, the yard and flowers, the host's kind and considerate nature, and the close walk to shopping and eateries. The bedroom doesn't have any windows- since the main room is full of 'em it isn't a problem. We actually slept later and better than we do at home.

The host canceled this reservation 44 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Amichevole e accogliente. Ci ha accolti con un cesto di benvenuto e un sorriso.

Karen is a fantastic host - very friendly and helpful and responds to questions in a timely manner. We were greeted by Karen on our arrival with a welcome basket full of tasty treats! Her condo is conveniently located a five minute walk from town where lots of great restaurants, quaint shops, and beautiful scenery await you. Her condo had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Plenty of private parking right outside the door. This was our first time staying at an Airbrb and we had a great experience.

Karen was extremely helpful in helping organize our trip to Boothbay. Karen gave many suggestions for spots around town, left us a basket of treats in her very clean and comfortable condo, and was very accommodating to our time of arrival. Thanks for all your help, Karen! You helped make our vacation a great one!

Karen was cheerful and very helpful with our booking, even in the early stages. When we arrived, she gave us a quick tour of her spotless condo. It was perfect for our needs and an easy walking distance to central Boothbay Harbor. This place is ideal and Karen is the perfect host. Thank you Karen!

Denne søde ejendom har alt hvad du behøver, og er hyggeligt og varmt selv under en snestorm! Jennifer var en stor vært, og Boothbay Harbor og omgiver tilbydes masser af aktiviteter selv i off season. Tak Jennifer

We had a wonderful time at the cottage! There were 5 college girlfriends getting together from around New England, and the house was a great fit for us. Wonderful to have wifi, an outfitted kitchen and lots of space. We loved the backyard and the fire pit area - so relaxing! The house was very clean, bright and welcoming. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful, and just a 10 min walk into downtown. Jennifer could not have been nicer in answering my (many!) questions and providing great recommendations. She made us feel very welcome with the instructions and kind notes around the house, and even checked in via text when we arrived. I'd definitely suggest eating at Ports of Italy, Kaler's and The Boat House, and recommend a trip to the beach at Hendrick's Head (about 10 min drive away). We did the Schooner Eastwind tour, which was also fantastic! The only drawback was the one bathroom (for 5 women...haha) and that parking was tight (but we had 3 cars coming from various locations, and street parking didn't seem wise). All in all, I definitely recommend this spot!

Wow. This place is an absolute treasure. Really have nothin but great things to say about this place. The location, cleanliness, style, and convenience were all excellent. Jennifer has created a cozy retreat in Boothbay that is both inviting and peaceful. This place is quintessential New England coastal with all of the comforts of home. Jennifer was really helpful with local recommendations for food, coffee, and things to do! We definitely hope to return again soon!

The house was so charming and comfy! The location can't be beat. It was a perfect retreat from the city. I appreciated the info Jennifer sent to me before our stay and how she checked in with us to see how we were doing during our stay. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would love to return! We particularly loved exploring all the nature preserve areas around the Boothbay area!

Our whole experience with this listing was wonderful, from the registration process and while we stayed at the cottage. The pictures and descriptions were very helpful. What we enjoyed the most was the comfortable nature of the cottage and the easy access by foot and by car to Boothbay Harbor and the surrounding area. Several evenings we made a fire and enjoyed long discussions around the fire pit. Our two adult children and their spouses stayed with us for several nights and the cottage while small still worked very well. This cottage added to our time together as a family and helped to create wonderful memories for our family of our time together in Boothbay Harbor. The ability to walk to the harbor to eat, shop, and take day trips was wonderful.

We had a wonderful vacation in Boothbay Harbor and the house fit our family's needs. We of course picked the hottest week in July, so we didn't do much cooking since we didn't want to heat up the house, but we found the location ideal to everything we needed in town. We also got fantastic recommendations from Jennifer for where to eat and local beaches. We loved the Dogfish Head beach in Southport (about a 15min drive from the house) so much and would definitely recommend this house and vacation to anyone!

8/16-8/21 2015. Can't say enough good things about our overall experience. Jennifer was prompt with her communication and pleasant to deal with. She kindly checked in with us to see if we needed anything or had any questions. The cottage was beautiful and located on a quiet street just minutes from all the activity in town. Many great restaurants and quaint shops. Especially enjoyed little breakfast shop just around the corner. Enjoyed coffee and rocking chair on porch. The cottage was well stocked and we couldn't have asked for more. Great experience and plan to go again.

The reservation was canceled 53 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

De gastheer heeft deze reservering 4 dagen voor aankomst geannuleerd. Dit is een geautomatiseerde posting.

Clean, within walking distance from the Boothbay attractions, and this unit has a lot of character. We enjoyed our stay.

It has been a very pleasant stay at TurnKey for me. The house was lovely and very clean. The nautical theme is amazing. The house has all the essential appliances and gadgets for a convenient living experience. Overall, I'm very happy with my choice of stay.

It was a beautiful little cottage across from the harbor. We had a pleasant stay!

This place is adorable and located within walking distance of everything. The space is accommodating and even has a nice sitting area outside as well as 2 Adirondack chairs across the street to enjoy the view of the harbor. Would definitely stay again!

This is a great little place to stay when visiting the Boothbay Harbor area. It is well equipped and tastefully decorated. A nice short walk to town but still quiet and cozy. Highly recommended!

We had a really nice stay at this house. The location is perfect - super easy to get to the downtown Boothbay area, go for walks and have some peace and quiet & privacy.

Mama D's was the place to be in the morning! It's next door to the house so we all went over every morning of our stay. Everyone was SO friendly and extremely friendly to my dog, Khaleesi. The house itself was quaint. All of the necessities were included, the yard and porch were lovely, and hav

We have been coming to BBH for many years and have stayed in many places, this was the best! We loved the proximity to town. The fact that you can walk everywhere and not have to constantly search for a parking spot is a really big deal. Being able to walk to and from the Thursday night concert at the library was a highlight. The house itself is perfect and so nice that everything is new......new kitchen, new bathrooms, new appliances, was so nice. The owners are very responsive and easy to work with. They were genuinely concerned about our stay.

David was very responsive to work with, and answered several questions for me about the listing before our vacation. Once we arrived, we were very relieved and excited to find that the house was even nicer than the pictures showed and the location was perfect! We wanted a place where we could walk into town, and this place was right in the fun, picturesque town of Boothbay Harbor. Everything we needed was in the house, and David even provided some "baby" items, such as a pack 'n play and a high chair, and some beach items. The house was completely renovated and we would definitely stay here again!

We loved staying at Mainecation! This is the first season this place has been rented after the hosts completely updated the home. As described, the interior is brand new and beautiful, beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully furnished. Check-in and out was simple with the realtor across the street, and the hosts worked hard to stay in touch up to and during the stay to make sure we had what we needed. We found David very pleasant, easy to work with, and very accommodating. For boaters, there are numerous marinas in the area, and the location made it possible for us to walk into town within 5 minutes to access the marina, restaurants, and shops. A couple of items that might be helpful to others: - The house is on a fairly busy street, so there is a bit of noise to consider from traffic and people wandering down the street from town at night, especially during the busy summer season (we were there in August). - It is an old house, with classic windows and associated ventilation challenges, so the bedrooms upstairs can get quite warm on hot sunny days and muggy nights (ceiling and other fans provided helped some). - We and our kids are older, and while there is a lot of good looking seating provided, much of it is geared toward durability rather than comfort. We would have, for example, loved to make use of the sun room more, or lounge in the kitchen, but our aging backs wouldn't have it. Overall, this is a high quality and spacious rental, with lots of amenities, in walking distance to an upbeat and funky harbor town - just what we were looking for!

Peggy was very welcoming and her house is beautiful and well taken care of. It offered so much that I wished I could have stayed longer. Definitely a place I'd love to come back to for a longer stay.

Peggy greeted us with a huge smile and a tour of her lovely B&B. It is warm & inviting, beautifully decorated and very clean. The pool is huge, clean and was very refreshing! The indoor & outdoor sitting areas were so comfortable and pretty. Peggy is so warm and wonderful to talk with. I wish I had more time to chat with her and her friend, Stephanie. The guest room we stayed in was perfect! Very bright, clean, tastefully decorated.....the beds were very comfortable! The bathroom was incredible! Could not have been more clean and inviting! Peggy provided a terrific breakfast all set up in the kitchen area and we enjoyed it on the "breakfast" enclosed patio. I highly recommend Peggy and her accommodations!

Peggy welcome my family with open arms. The B&B is immaculate, inviting, and family-friendly. Can't thank Peggy enough regards to how welcoming and accommodating the stay was.

We stayed for two nights. Very close to downtown. It was very warm but Peggy had a fan that helped tremendously. Peggy gave recommendations for restaurants and locally spots to visit. Very quiet and secluded from the busy town.

A very nice house close to the harbor. It is also close to some other attractions, like the botanical gardens. It is an easy 10-15 minute walk to the harbor, but there is a private road through the woods leading up to the house that you might not want to walk at night. We did not use the pool because of the weather while we were there, but it looked very nice and Peggy had everything you would need to spend some time lounging poolside.

The place was cute. We stayed during the middle of a slow week and ended up having the whole place to ourselves which was nice. Peggy was very warm, welcoming and accommodating. It's tucked away on a very private lot about a mile from Booth Bay Harbor. It was perfect for what we wanted, which was a low key relaxing location close enough to Booth Bay so we could eat, drink and shop. The price was great as well. I highly recommend it.

Really enjoyed our short but wonderful time at Peggy's. The house is so secluded and away from the busy harbor, yet very close. She couldn't have been nicer opening her home to us and driving us to dinner since we had arrived by boat. Breakfast was very homey and delicious. Also enjoyed meeting the other guests. Thanks so much for a quick getaway!

I stayed for 1 night after going to closing on my new house in Boothbay Harbor!!! And I just can't say enough about how welcoming and helpful Peggy was. I feel like I have made my first friend in Boothbay Harbor!
