An ideal stopover point when heading east from Portland is Hodgdon Marina in Boothbay Harbor. Located on the quiet side of the harbor - yet still within walking distance of downtown's restaurants, galleries, and shops - the facility provides at the dock depths ranging from 8-18 feet, 750 linear feet of space, gas and diesel fuel, 30, 50, and 100 amp hookups, and full marina amenities. The spacious venue has the capacity to accommodate large sail and power boat fleets for comfortable socializing both on and off the water. Mobile boat repair is available and extensive projects can be catered to by Hodgdon Yacht Services, a full-service boatyard.
As they say on their website, they’re on the “quite” side of the harbor but only a five minute walk into town. Nice town. Plenty of good restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. Even a nice library. There’s a post office and hardware store in downtown as well. The marina was clean, bathrooms clean, docks in good condition, staff helpful. Worth a couple of extra dollars for a mooring out of the main harbor IMO.
Very helpful and friendly folks in the marina office. Good mooring in a good location, and an easy walk to town, but not in the middle of all the hubbub.
Nice and quiet. Good head and showers. Ian very helpful.
I got a mooring last week and dock this week. Moorings and docks in great condition. Good electrical service. Easy to pull in for fuel. Wade, who was working there, got the town pump out boat to come over and that went smoothly. Wifi worked well and bathrooms/showers were clean and adequate. Marina is lightly staffed so they didn’t answer on 9 but I called on the cell and pulled into dock and the guy came out. Convenient location for Boothbay Harbor. Quiet end of the harbor, 10 min walk to town.
Ian was really helpful and made for a great experience!
It's a clean and friendly marina. Simple comforts like a hot shower and flush toilets. Walking distance to many restaurants and coffee shops. We rented a slip 9ft at low tide, and they have moorings, but no launch service. Water and power available as needed. After a rough sea all morning, it was a nice layover to rest and clean ourselves and the boat for the next leg of the trip.
Our arrival at Hodgdon Marina was adequate, the attendant was busy and my phone could not connect to their contact number. As we approached the marina the attendant came out and gave us our mooring assignment. I did get great service for refueling, the attendant was courteous and helpful. This is a great location for visiting town, only a 10 minute walk. There is a lot of history in the town of Hodgdon.
Very nice Marina, clean facilities, and a very friendly staff.
Had a great quite night on the mooring at Hodgdon Marina. It was very clean and had all the facilities need to make the trip to Boothbay amazing. The Dockmaster Ian Mckay was great! They were very responsive and welcoming. I will definitely be back to stay again.
On mooring, very nice marina, quite, easy walk to town, stores, restaurants
Hodgdon’s is the Perfect location with easy access to town and quiet evenings. The Dockmaster ( Ian) was excellent and had us set up quickly . We will be back for sure!!
Beautiful place in a beautiful and charming community. Easy walk to town. Highly recommend it.
Great stay at a nice, unpretentious marina. The staff was very helpful and facilities were clean and well maintained. Josh and Liam are true professionals.
Great staff, Very nice facilities, easy walk into town, watch the depth behind dingy dock on low tide - some nasty rocks ( very big tidal range ). Avoids the hubbub of the main harbor. Would return
Very nice Marina, quiet. Easy to get fuel. Moorings are secluded from the rush of Boothbay. Your attendant was very helpful, courteous and friendly. Thank you
Very friendly staff! Really enjoyed time there and short pleasant walk into downtown.
Beautiful marina. Clean, friendly and close to town. The owner is awesome and so nice! We will be back for a third year.
Very private, friendly staff, great location. Half mile walk to town. Really enjoyed our stay, thank you.
Excellent in all respects. We plan to stop again on our way back in a month. The marina is better than those over in town or way out by the YC. Good wi-fi, a new dinghy dock and green grass for the dogs. Perfect for us. And Ian is great. We had a situation and he helped us arrange a diver on a Saturday morning and our problem was solved. Above and beyond, really.
Ian was great helping us get positioned and lending us a water hose. Marina is just around the corner from downtown so it’s quieter without all the boat traffic. Still close enough so it’s an easy walk to restaurants and shops. Dockwa App took care of payment
No launch service (something I overlooked) but I loved the quiet end of the harbor during the regatta weekend. Facilities are clean and accessible, wifi worked on the mooring. Short walk into town.
Great location out of the hustle of Boothbay. Very accommodating.
The marina office was closed the day we arrived but we still received a phone call that morning with our mooring assignment. Nice facility. Clean restrooms. Good showers. Short walk or dinghy ride to town. Very quiet. Would stay there again.
We had a great stay on the dock at Hodgdon Marina. The dock master was available and helpful, and the surroundings were quite pleasant (a much quieter stay than in the main harbor). The only drawback was the longer walk in to town- but that too was nice in good weather.
Had we known they were closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (no staff, no services) we probably would have stayed elsewhere. The facilities are good, the location is relatively quiet (it is Boothbay after all) and it was easy to access town and such. We had hoped to get ice and fuel, we ended up going over to Carousel for all of that.
Perfect spot for us as we are 125'. Quiet and away from main area of town, but an easy walk to and from.
We made a last minute decision to come in to do laundry and avoid a little storm. Even though the office wasn't technically open, Ian made sure I was able to get laundry tokens! Very much appreciated!! The laundry and showers were very clean and spotless. Docks, etc in good shape. Walking distance to downtown.. Hannafords also walkable, although we took a taxi back. Would stay again.
Nice spot but not much service or facilities. Struggled to find the bathroom, which was absent of TP.
We have a wonderful stay at Hodgdon Marina. It is a hidden gem. Close to town but so quiet and peaceful. The staff was great. They were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.
Thank you, Hodgdon Marine. Great stay. We enjoyed your quiet cove away from the busy main harbor. It was a pleasant and easy walk to dinner in town.
Great location at a quiet spot in Boothbay but an easy walk to town. Manager Ian McKay let us use his personal car to drive to town to provision! Highly recommended.
Great service and very hospitable. Ian McKay made the difference. Bit rolly on the mooring but otherwise great.
Easy in and out, short walk to village, and Ean who manages the marina extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful!! Will always come to this marina!!!
Affordable, good tackle on the morning. 5 minute walk from town. “Quiet” side of harbor but great views south to the ocean.
Best spot in Boothbay although not a lot of amenities if you want that. Quiet remote location with a short walk to town.
Great marina and excellent Boothbay location if you’re looking to enjoy the town, but then retreat to a more peaceful area. Really short walk into town with all the shops and restaurants. Facilities were clean and Ian was a helpful and friendly dock hand. Will be back!
Boothbay is beautiful place. This marina is on other side of the town and very quite, but only 5 minutes walk to the town. While walking to the town take a look (on a right side) in Bristol boat yard to see the restored schooner hull. One thing though. The wifi is spotty, but I think it will be upgraded next year. Definitely will stay there again. Highly recommended.
The marina is in a very quiet location, sheltered from the occasional swell in the main harbor, yet easy walking distance into town. Ian, the dockmaster, is very friendly and helpful. Marina is also very pet friendly. This marina is now one of our favorites.
On the quiet side of the harbor as advertised. Mooring had pick-up stick and was very sheltered. However, moored amid construction equipment that fortunately went quiet at 5 p.m. Marina didn’t answer VHF so had to call on cell. Limited services but easy walk to town.
Peaceful side of Boothbay Harbor nice facility friendly crew - transient dock easy on and off - short walk to town- we will be back
Nice quiet location a short walk into town. Power on the west end of the dock was insufficient and we were forced to keep the generator running
Lovely views, convenient dinghy dock. Big supermarket only 0.7 miles away. Showers and bathrooms nice and clean enough. Super nice people and a great place! Very short walk or dinghy ride into the heart of Boothbay.
Very hospitable crew. Expertly handles us and our vessel. Very clean facility. Easy access to town with a short walk. Quiet.
Outstanding Marina - easy to get into, short walk to town while being away from the noise, and Ian the dockmaster was over the top helpful. We're already planning our next trip here.
