It was WONDERFUL!!

Everything that we expected. We had everything we needed.

The cottage was very clean, small, but perfect for two of us (we are on the shorter side) The property is very happily situated. Beautiful views with coffee in the morning and a fire at night. When the tide goes out taking a walk below on the shore. Walk across the street to Erica's Seafood or to the Dolphin Restaurant. A nice relaxing weekend.

The cottage is cozy. The bathroom is quite small and master bedroom has a low ceiling (6’ and you need to hunch over to get around), but we found these small prices to pay for the setting and views. Property was very clean and check in was simple/quick. We had one minor issue and the manager was very responsive. The two restaurants steps away from the place also were a terrific surprise. They were great!

This review is based on a weeklong stay, two adults. The cottage is small -- might have felt tight if it were more than two of us. But it is so well planned, so well organized, that often you find yourself just admiring the layout. Beautiful and cozy. And the location is awesome. You are pretty much at the end of the road. Lobsters are sold at the pier across the street. The fire pit in the yard is killer. We would definitely come back here. Many fond memories of our weeklong stay at Bober Cottage.

Wonderful get-away

We had a wonderful time in Harpswell and at the Bober Cottage! The cottage and the location were beautiful. Everything was clean and well put together. The sunsets were stunning. We loved it!

This cottage is a lovely little place, out of the hustle and bustle but close to the most important amenity in Maine, a seriously good lobster shack across the road. My husband, brother and I recently spent a week and while we had some physical challenges with the space (we are all pretty tall and the cottage is low ceilinged and space limited as alluded to in the description) we truly enjoyed sitting every night out at the fire pit with only the most spectacular view stretched out before us. Some FYI's: beach towels are not offered and there was only a single bath towel provided per person for the week which wasn't enough. The upstairs bed is a double, not a queen. Without a dishwasher some of the pots and pans and assorted kitchen wares needed a serious cleaning. There was a general stinginess in the materials which felt a little less than welcoming (two rolls of TP for the week and if you took more than that you needed to replace, if you used any of the pantry items you needed to replace, etc). There is a small amount of housekeeping you are responsible for with this booking in making the beds upon arrival and gathering up all linens for the linen service at the end of your stay amongst the regular good guest duties like dishes and trash. Not a big deal at all, just worth mentioning as I was not expecting this. The property management was communicative and we could have been more vocal about the challenges we faced in the space. I honestly, just wanted to vacation and not deal with any of that so I didn't. If I had I'm certain we could have worked something out. All in all it was a very good stay and I would recommend to others (particularly couples or people who don't mind losing IQ points for every time they bang their head on the ceiling or door jams....).

We loved our stay at The Bober cottage! It has wonderful views and yard. We had a camp fire almost every night and two great places to eat right across the road.
