Description
Welcome to Ocean Point, East Boothbay, Maine. Ocean Point is a friendly community of seasonal, rental and year-round families, many of whom have been coming here for generations.
We hope that your stay at “The Jigger” is a wonderful experience. Our cottage, purchased in January 2021, has an interesting history. Rev. Lewis G. Wilson built “Fir Cabin”, the gray cottage with white trim closer to Shore Road, about 1911. He organized the construction of the stone chapel which was dedicated in August of 1917 in memory of his first wife Janet. In 1916 Rev. Wilson built his study he referred to as “The Jigger” behind his original cottage.
Wilson Memorial Chapel is a landmark by land and sea. The chapel offers interdenominational worship services Sunday mornings at 9:30 with visiting clergy. Everyone is welcome to attend. Often weddings and other celebrations take place at the chapel during the summer.
The views of the Atlantic Ocean and islands are spectacular with lots of activity on the water even in the fog. You may enjoy rock climbing, exploring the beaches and tidal pools, swimming, fishing, birding, boating and walking.
Card Cove Association (CCA) owns the dock across the road from The Ocean Point Inn. As our guests, you have the privilege to use the dock for swimming, fishing and boating. Please be mindful of posted rules. Moorings in Card Cove can be secured if so desired.
Ocean Point Colony Trust maintains a campus around Park and High Streets which include a building, The Casino, with a wraparound porch with rocking chairs, a patio, a children’s play structure, sandbox, tennis, pickleball and basketball courts and playing fields across the road. There are scheduled activities for children and adults during the summer. Information and reservation fees for tennis and pickleball and other listings of activities are posted on an outside bulletin board.
When you return to your respective homes, we hope that you reflect on your memories of the amazing beauty of the coast of The Pine Tree State and your time at our beloved OP. Thank you for carefully respecting our neighbors and properties. Please sign our guestbook.

Thank you!!! We feel honored to be the first to stay at The Jigger for the 2022 season. It was everything we hoped for and more. Right down to the beautiful tulips on the table. Sue and Paul thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us on Ocean Point. Loved talking with you about the old history of the OP cottages. We loved every minute of our stay and can't wait to do it again!

Year number two for us! We appreciated the clean, comfortable cottage. Thanks Wendy for the help with the rental process.

A favorite thing to do was to sit in the chairs outside and watch the boats go by. The week went too fast. We appreciated the cable to watch the news and weather and the stove to warm us this few cool mornings. Go to the Botanical Gardens if you get a chance. Check out the Trolls!

As promised we returned for another delightful Summer at The Jigger. We especially enjoyed the respite from the heat wave in CT. What a treat to enjoy this stunning view and wear a sweatshirt.

The Jigger offers the comfort of home and then some! Being a photographer the views and various scapes inspired me daily. The views morning, noon and night calm the soul and excited the senses. All we know is that we slept so well and thinking it's the sea air!!
