I chose this facility after searching the internet to find a mid-coast Maine place that allowed pets. For several years we have visited this general area, and like it very much for a long weekend stay, but we wanted to take our little dog along on this trip. After checking availability, I called the resort to book the unit we... More

In August 2012 my family spent the seventeenth year at this peaceful resort. I cannot say enough good things about this place. It is as quiet and relaxing as ever. One reviewer called this ‘an upscale camp for adults’ and it is, a real getaway from the cares of the World. As I have said before we would not continue... More

We love Boothbay Harbor, ME and have been going there for over 10 years. We always stay at the Ocean Gate..never anywhere else. We love it, our kids love it and it's very close to Boothbay. They serve a great breakfast every morning. We love to walk down to the dock and take out the kayaks. We have stayed at... More

Spent a couple nights here during the Summer. Seemed as though we were the only ones around, despite the place being mostly booked. Not far from any of the attractions in the area, but seems as though you're a million miles away from civilization.

It was like driving to camp through the woods. We went off season and there were no crowds but the hotel was nice, newly renovated. We stayed in the Cedar building. Lovery view of the water. It was a trek into Boothbay but so scenic and quiet we couldn't help but love it. We will definately visit again. Breakfast was... More

We have been to Southport many times but always rented cottages or houses. This time we only had two days returning from Nova Scotia, so we decided to stay at Ocean Gate. We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. There is a free breakfast buffet in a building close by. Our unit was right on... More

Ocean Gate Resort is a fabulous, beautifully quiet place. I've stayed twice now - and sadly it's rained both times - but this is a little gem tucked away in the woods and with lovely views of the water and coast. There is no restaurant for evening meals, but s we were a group for our most recent stay, Frank... More

Away from the town noise and traffic of Boothbay Harbor. The rooms are comfortable and have a nice view of the cove. No elevators in the 2 level room areas so pack light. The long driveway is deceptive, you think you will never get there, but when you do it was a nice surprise.
