Discover an architectural wonder on the shores of the Back River at this Boothbay home, a geodesic dome house with a dog-friendly interior, a shared dock nearby, and a beautiful deck that overlooks the water. Come home from a day of hiking, kayaking, or sailing to find a comfortable living space with plenty of natural light. Kick back on the sofa to stream your favorite shows or videos on the flatscreen TV, use the free WiFi to share vacation photos with your loved ones, and leash up your dog for a walk along the surrounding country roads.

Begin each morning with a sunrise paddle from the shared dock, and come home to prepare breakfast in the sun-lit kitchen (with a dishwasher). Bring the newspaper outside to the expansive back deck and spend the evening grilling and dining on local haddock with a view of the Back River. You'll find tranquility, comfort, and gorgeous scenery at this Boothbay vacation home - book your stay on the Midcoast today!

What's nearby:
Take a scenic 14-mile drive up to Wiscasset or along Maine Route 1! The Dome House is perfectly secluded on two acres of dense woodlands, at the end of a gravel road that leads to the banks of the Back River. Launch your kayak from the communal dock a quarter-mile down the road, take a morning stroll through the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens one mile north, and play an afternoon round of golf at the Boothbay Harbor Country Club three miles east. If guests are visiting in the winter, the annual Gardens Aglow event shows the Peninsula in a festive new light.

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

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!

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.

I arrived to late afternoon sun, breeze softened by tall pines, jade bay lighting pine boughs from underneath...serene scenes in all directions. Sat by firepit area, then on deck to take in views of the water just yards below... Entrance to home offers convenient landing area for letting bags and shoes rest, then you can move left to the living-room "dome" or right into the airy kitchen - both directions have wide windows to take in the scenery you have just come in from and comfortable places to sit, eat, read, play games or work on your art. Good WIFI signal. Kitchen is well-appointed for making all meals - if you don't take advantage of the excellent area restaurants. The aesthetic is easy on all the senses, and there is signage about how to use amenities there, as well as useful information about what to do in the area, including an important draw: this place is a 2-MINUTE DRIVE FROM THE BOOTHBAY BOTANICAL GARDENS!!! Awesome quiet spot to get away to rest, meet friends, or base out of to conduct your area business. Highly recommend the Dome House in Boothbay and will return, thank you!

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!

New furniture was super comfortable. Very clean & loved the local artwork in the home. Location is close enough to town that everything is within 15 minutes. Great time in Maine!
