Full of sunlight, ocean breezes, and gorgeous views of Lobster Cove, this oceanfront apartment is a beautiful home base for taking in the beauty of Boothbay Harbor. With Barrett Park right next door and the footbridge within walking distance, you'll have excellent access to the ocean shore and downtown shops, galleries, and restaurants.

This apartment sits on a waterfront piece of property that it shares with a main house. Walk home from a day spent gallery-hopping in town to be greeted by a front deck overlooking the cove - a lovely spot for sharing lobster rolls from Boothbay Lobster Wharf down the street.

Inside, find an open living space lined with windows and such at-home comforts as window air-conditioning and high-speed WiFi. There's a kitchen with every essential, an indoor dining table, and a streaming-capable TV for your evening entertainment. In the evenings, when you're not dining out, enjoy a gas grill and a propane firepit with a view of the water, which is shared with guests in the main house.

Great location
Great location, nice and quiet and still close enough to take advantage of the town's offerings. Clean and well maintained and provided with all you would need to enjoy a relaxing time in Boothbay. No issues with codes or finding the place.

Great Boothbay location!
The place is very well kept in a great location. Barrett Park is right across the road great for a swim and relaxing. Far enough away from the touristy hub bub yet only about a mile walk into all the attractions. 👍👍👍

Just what I needed to restore my soul.
The peace and quiet. The simplicity and cleanliness of the apartment. The Park and the sea just within a few feet of your apartment and the half mile walk to the Footbridge into Boothbay. All a gift.

Great view
Everything was nice and it was close to town to walk. They just have to get the key thing straight. Apparently the neighbor had the same trouble and the people before us. The code that they give you doesn’t open the door. There is a back up key and we did get in after they gave us the code. The house was a little 1 bdrm and had all the essentials to give us a nice stay. Would recommend it.

Pleasant Coastal Stay
My husband and I stayed two nights, arriving late in the afternoon. We had no difficulty finding or getting into the property. The place was clean and the bed was comfortable. We were out doing things in the area most of the time, but did enjoy a slow, quiet morning and loved being able to walk to the nearby park and enjoy the view. We were also in the apartment early one evening because of light rain, just reading and checking emails, etc., and missed the basics for preparing our own food. Having stayed in many types of short-term vacation lodging I would say that there is often a seasoning, cooking oil, a few sandwich bags or wrap, and some "starter" coffee (2 pods or a filter and one packet for the pot) available. Otherwise, I would certainly recommend Barret's Watch. It's a quiet, accessible, and pleasant place to stay near the water.

Great space and location
Barrett's Watch is well located for walking to some restaurants and the main town of Boothbay Harbor. The view is fantastic and we loved how easy it was to get around and the proximity to the park. We did not have kayaks or paddle boards with us, but the park is a great spot for launching watercraft and fishing. The neighborhood was really quiet and the apartment had plenty of space for two adults and our little 4-year-old. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Rating 6 star
Would rate this property 6 stars if possible. Clean well maintained property on a beautiful street with waterfront view. And the park about 300 feet from the house was an added bonus and a delightful surprise.
