What guests say
Tugboat Inn earns consistent enthusiasm for its unbeatable waterfront location and harbour views, with guests repeatedly noting that everything in Boothbay Harbor is within easy walking distance. However, the rooms are widely described as small and dated, beds draw frequent comfort complaints, and operational quirks — including early front-desk closure and off-site check-in — can frustrate new arrivals. For travellers who prioritise a scenic setting over spacious or modern accommodation, the inn delivers solid value.
“I have stayed there several times. The location and view trump all.”
“Lovely quirky and well equipped room with a fantastic view over the harbour and beautiful location in a lovely town.”
“The front desk closes at 5! We had to drive to another hotel who was handling their check ins. We were there two nights and never saw one single employee anywhere.”
