HISTORY
An 1893 cottage built in the center of a double lot on water’s edge near the head of Linekin Bay, enjoyed and maintained by the family for five generations. While retaining the charm of a Victorian era open-stud construction, it has entered the 21st century with modern conveniences. This house was featured in “The Hand of the Small Town Builder, Vernacular Summer Architecture in New England, 1870-1935.”
BEDROOMS
Four Bedrooms - Sleeps 8, Beds for 8
Bedroom 1:
Queen size bed with over the bed reading lamp. Two windows; front window affords a high point view of Linekin Bay.
Bedroom 2:
Large room at end of the hall in the back. Queen size bed with reading light, two windows; side one gives partial view of the bay.
Bedroom 3:
At rear, Queen Size bed, two windows no water view.
Bedroom 4:
Downstairs off dining room, one single bed, one camp bed, one window. Also a rear door leading to laundry room and bathroom.
Each bedroom has antique oak bureaus and mirrors, with closets for clothing. The duvets are handmade, and there are electric blankets for cooler nights.
DINING ROOM & LIVING ROOM
The living room has a large modern picture window with another great panoramic view of Linekin Bay as well. Double doors lead to a full length porch and domed cupola flying the American flag. A stained glass window on the stair landing offers a unique red tinted view of the rising sun and bay.
Another feature of the living room is the fireplace made from the pebbles, stones and shells found on the beach. The fireplace has a propane-fired Jotul stove that, on cool nights will heat the entire living room and give warmth to the upstairs bedrooms as well. A large flat screen 32” HD TV, and board games are there, too. The dining room can seat ten comfortably with the addition of two more leaves, and a side door leads to the porch.
KITCHEN
The kitchen was expanded some years ago and now has a large stainless steel sink set in a Formica countertop. There is a large refrigerator (new 2012) with a mini refrigerator in the back hall.
The five burner electric glass-top stove is new, as is the Bosch dishwasher in 2016. There is also a propane Rinnai heater on the back wall. A toaster oven microwave, Nutribullet smoothie blender and two coffee makers (traditional & Keurig) help to make a kitchen our great grandmother would not believe!
Besides the appliances already mentioned, it is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes and utensils. Every-day dinnerware is on the kitchen shelves; finer dinnerware is in the dining room cabinet. Whatever is in the pantry cupboard is yours to use.
The supermarket (Hannaford’s) is 3 miles back to the first traffic light at Rte. 27.
BATHROOM
One bathroom on first floor off the kitchen and laundry room. Completely renovated three years ago. Large modern shower stall, marble vanity and sink, toilet. Front window lends a peek at Linekin Bay. Towels and washcloths are new as are the bedroom linen.
The back hall has a newer washer and dryer. and a wall mounted cabinet with first aid supplies, as well as other paper goods
YARD & PORCH
Outside, the side porch has a propane Weber grill, leading to the full front porch where a central round table under the cupola dome offers a great place for breakfast and coffee while watching the bay’s activities of swimmers and boaters using the public wharf and dock just two houses away. A great spot for fishing and swimming!
Keep your ears alert for the cry of osprey as they circle the bay looking for fish. Bald Eagles also make their own appearance from time to time, and low tide will find herons stalking the shallows, while families of ducks swim the bay in search of food as well. The honk of geese alerts you to a V formation of the large birds soaring overhead. Seagulls abound and lobster boats and all sizes of sailing and motor craft traverse the bay throughout the day. Exploring the beach for sea glass and old pottery bits as well as shells will keep kids of all ages (aren’t we all while on vacation?) busy.

32” HD cable flat screen TV, Apple TV 4k, and a radio in the kitchen, Wi-Fi, Internet, games, cards, some books.
Streaming services including Apple TV, Amazon, HBOMax, Hulu & Netflix

Summary: Classic Maine shore cottage. Great location for kids to explore the seashore. Cottage was stocked with all the essentials. East Boothbay General Store was an easy walk for coffee and lunch. We would definitely rent again.

Summary: The house was clean and very well stocked with anything you would ever need while on vacation The keypad entry was great as you did not have to worry about carrying extra keys with you. Downtown Booth Bay Harbor was a short drive away. Views of the bay from the wrap around porch were breath taking, great spot for that morning cup of coffee. I feel the check out time is a bit early to enjoy breakfast and then have to pack up your car and be out by 10:00 am. On the not so positive side there was no sandy beach to enjoy, coast is all rocks. In communicating with the host I was lead to believe there was a sandy beach that came and went with the tides. Also the picture listed is a bit deceiving, as the water does not come all the way up to the gazebo. In order to put a boat or kayaks in the water you had to go to either public dock or further down the road at the boat launch. That meant constantly carrying a boat motor, kayaks, and fishing equipment back and forth for use. It got to be a bit tedious and I was not able to kayak at my convenience. I needed help in carrying the kayak and my husband and son were not always available as they were out fishing most of the day.

Summary: This was our second two week stay at quintessential Chesebro cottage and it was even more delightful than the last.Weather was gorgeous and we took advantage of it to enjoy a Balmy Day’s excursion to Monhegan where we hiked to the Lighthouse and through the woods to Gull ‘s Cove for lunch (Hope that sneaky gull enjoyed my sandwich). Another fine day we visited Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens to check out the trolls for the third time (Sven is my favorite). Back at the cottage, when we weren’t relaxing on the porch taking in the view and harbor activity, you could find us walking at Murray Hill or Ocean Point, attending Wilson Chapel on Sundays, visiting my friend’s new gallery in the village and, of course, East Boothbay General Store, plus, not to forget the early morning serene moments kayaking the glassy waters of Linekin Bay and swimming at public dock two doors down. We ate out only once, because eats prepared in Chesebro’s well equipped and efficient kitchen were so good and the view can’t be beat! Those dinners did include both cooked lobsters and homemade lobster rolls (Ala Paul) from Pinkhams (Their potato salad is as tasty as my own).….and some fall-off-the-bone bbq ribs from Carriage House….yum! (Must also give Lobsterman’s Wharf just down the road a shoutout for their seafood delights and our very favorite in-town eatery, Boathouse Bistro). Okay, so Chesebro isn’t all about wining and dining ….there are the comfortable beds for a good night’s rest, fantastic water pressure and plenty of hot water for very revitalizing shower, THE PORCH, water views from every window and “natural” air conditioning with windows open when needed, GAZEBO for “eating out” breakfast, lunch or dinner, the great period dining room table to gather around when it’s chilly, the cozy but ample living room WITH A VIEW for visiting, quiet time, TV or games … plus in-house laundry! What did I miss about this one- of-a-kind old cottage where it’s history is told in pictures and objects artfully displayed on walls and shelves and lovingly cared for by the descendants who are still it’s owners? THE PITCHER OF HOME-BREWED ICE TEA by Debbie to welcome our arrival!! Thank you! Bob made check in and checkout a breeze and responded quickly to questions and concerns all along the way. Thanks, again!

Summary: This is an exceptional property, not only in terms of its waterfront location, but also the many amenities and the care and maintenance of the cottage are exceptional. The host has provided everything you need for pleasant vacation. We wanted for nothing during our two week stay in this charming 1893 summer home.

Summary: The house is amazing, both in feel and history. Quintessential Maine cottage experience. Really well equipped and well managed property. There is a tidal beach and walking access to the public dock/boat launch and amazing East Boothbay General Store, all of which kept a family with a very active 4.5 year old and toddler very happy for the week. Would highly recommend.
