Stay away unless you want to camp (with a room).It’s nothing like the pictures. The property is rundown.A lot of things are broken and left unrepaired. No soap or glasses were provided in the room. There’s barely any staff around. The surroundings are in dismay.

RUN! Dont waster your money

This was an absolute disaster! We had to be moved from original room because of mold infested ac and ended up staying 2 days in a room that had NO hot water. The entirw property wi-fi was down and there was no coffee or machine available in the rooms! Yvonne who works the front desk was professional and did what she could but the issues definitely the fault of the owners! I will NEVER stay there again! The website does not offer the reality of this property and ALL its dysfunction. I swear the bed was 20 years old and super uncomfortable.

Beautiful view! But very old and dated. It felt more like a camp ground than a resort. Rooms were old and doors were difficult to open and close.

I thought the property was very quaint, loved the views from my deck overlooking the water. Every staff member greeted me every time I came across them. I feel they did a wonderful job getting the property up to par seeing how they had just opened for the season on 6/18/25!! Breakfast was delicious.

Charming stay

This property is breathtakingly beautiful. The rooms were cute and comfortable, bathrooms could use an update though. But we really loved having a view right out our front door of the coast.

Would recommend (esp for the price)

This place was peaceful. A little rustic but definitely not roughing it—standard hotel room with a sort of a Maine camp feel. The bay views were nice. I like the amenities (breakfast was decent, nice pool, little minigolf set-up) and there’s some decently cool stuff in Boothbay within roaming distance if you want to leave the property. Would def do this again.

The view of the bay was lovely but the property has been neglected for quite some time. Very shabby and dingy. No amenities - not even a beverage machine on the property. Breakfast was plain and minimal. Staff uninterested and had to be told by customers that containers were empty. This stay was definitely not worth the rate paid. Pictures on website are not what you get.

A quiet location set on a cove on Southport island, our room was quiet and comfortable staff was attentive and ready to met our needs. My only issue was the chairs in our room and balcony had zero padding, very uncomfortable, otherwise a fantastic option.
