We had a short but sweet stay at Riverwatch, stopping for a few nights as we were exploring coastal Maine. The cottage is beautiful and had everything we needed and more for our short stay. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed watching the sunset and viewing wildlife from the Adirondack chairs in the yard and from the front window. The neighborhood is quiet and everywhere we wanted to go in the area was just a short drive away. We will definitely stay again if we ever make it back to this area! ##### Holly K.

Wooded location with lovely water views. Very quiet. Walking distance to great hiking trails. Just a couple minute drive to many scenic Land Trust sites and to shoppes and restaurants of Booth Bay Harbor village. House is well stocked kitchenwise. Linens and towels quite luxe. Everything about the property feels fresh and new. Loved it. ##### Cynthia K. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lloyd W. 14 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Property Riverwatch is a wonderful home near the Maine Botanical Gardens. We stay in Boothbay often and this is one of the nicest properties we have stayed at. It was immaculate and had all the amenities you could ask for. We enjoyed cooking our Thanksgiving dinner in the beautiful kitchen. The management crew even left us a Thanksgiving dinner setup. We bring our own, but the thoughtfulness was much appreciated. The property has many beautiful views and is close to the Harbor. The owners should taken pride in having made this such a welcoming place for visitors. We look forward to visiting again in the future. ##### Lloyd W.

This was our first trip to Maine and to Boothbay. We had a wonderful visit! The house is perfect for two couples or a small family. We made a day trip to Acadia and Bar Harbor, although if you want to make a long day of it, staying a night closer to the park would be ideal. Boothbay Harbor is such a cute town! Picked up some great gifts. We cooked lobster two nights at Riverwatch. Buy your lobsters at Trevett Market! We ate there three times! Clam strips were amazing. The house had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. ##### Meredith G.

I didn’t realize it had a water view and was pleasantly surprised. The space is great and worked really well for our family. The location was close to Boothbay without being in the middle of everything. There is not an AC unit downstairs so it got a little warm at times and was thankful for the ceiling fans. I might suggest the owner provide a couple of box fans for future. Kitchen was great but if you’re staying make sure you get things like Pam spray, foil and other things you might need to cook. Really loved the house! ##### Jill J. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen L. 28 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Riverwatch get away Rented Riverwatch for an end of summer getaway for our family of 4. Was the perfect size for our family. The bedrooms were beautiful and cozy, the entire houses decor was perfect. We loved walking down to the dock to watch the sunset. It is a bit away from the center of things, but it was only about a 10 minute drive into town. The other thing was that I assumed Being on the water there would be a small beach nearby but there is no entry point to the water on that street. Had a bit of an issue getting into the property which was quickly addressed but would be helpful to add the lock instructions to the welcome email. We had a wonderful time exploring the area and can’t wait to return!! ##### Kathleen L.
