Parking 2019

We are happy to take advance reservations for overnight parking. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate you if you pull in 15 minutes before the boat leaves. David and I both work full time, and the kids are grown and gone, so if you call or text, please allow 24 hours for us to get back to you. 

Overnight Rates for 2019 are $10/day

A day is from 8 am to 8 am. If you don't return by 8 am you could be taking someone else's reserved spot. If you have a change of plans and need to stay longer than expected, contact us ASAP so we can make any necessary changes with other reservations.

Payment is due in advance. Send payment t0 24 Todd Avenue, Boothbay Harbor, Maine 04539. We also take Venmo. 

Here some answers to frequently asked questions:

1. What is the physical address for the parking lot? 24 Todd Ave, Boothbay Harbor
2. Why is the overnight rate different from the day rate? Day trippers are generally here for 2-3 hours and often we can "flip" a space two or three times in a day. We cannot flip overnight spaces.
3. Will I be blocked in? No, we never double park cars.
4. Can we come and go? Yes, but make sure you put an orange cone in your spot or someone else may take it and we may not be able to find a new spot for you.
5. Do you take credit cards? No, sorry. We take cash, checks and Venmo.
6. Can we pay when we leave? No, to hold your reservation we require payment in advance.
7. If I need to leave earlier than expected can I get a refund? Yes, as long as you let us know in advance.

Before leaving the parking lot for an extended stay please check the following:

• Make sure all of your windows and skylights are closed
• Make sure your car engine is turned off
• Make sure we have your contact information 
• Please center your car up to the railroad tie or fence and pull all the way forward. If you are taking up two spaces you may be preventing someone else from parking.

Thanks for parking with us!

Summer Season 2017

Top 10 Things to Do in the Boothbay Region

1. Visit a lighthouse. The Balmy Days at Pier 8 has a harbor tour that will take you past lighthouses or even better purchase tickets for the Burnt Island Living Lighthouse Program and travel back in time.
2. Take a hike. We have miles of public trails in the area. The Boothbay Region Land Trust has maps or just walk along our public roads for a scenic walk.
3. Get tickets for a concert at the Opera House. This is a great venue for a variety of musical entertainment. There isn't a bad seat in the house. It's a quick stroll from the apartment so no need to worry about parking. 
4. Pack a picnic for Grimes Cove or Hendrick's Head Beach. The best sandwiches can be found at the East Boothbay General Store. 
5. Visit the Farmer's Market every Thursday on the Boothbay Common.
6. Rent a kayak or paddle board at the Tidal Transit Company.
7. Visit the Department of Marine Resources Aquarium. 
8. Get tickets for the Cabbage Island Clambake. 
9. Tour the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens.
10. Shop for locally made artwork and crafts: Boothbay Region Art Foundation, Anderson Studio, Mung Bean, Anne Hedgecock (at the art fairs on the library lawn).
