Property Description

The historic, oceanfront Newagen Seaside Inn began welcoming guests to the Boothbay Harbor region in 1816. An exclusive summer colony had sprung up around the beautiful old Preble homestead and its breathtaking views of Cape Newagen in the coastal village of Newagen (from Capmanwagan, or “Cape of Good Trading”). On the tip of a wooded cape jutting five miles out to sea, famous and distinguished guests – from Frank Sinatra to Maine governors – enjoyed sea water baths, fresh Maine seafood, and unparalleled views of the sea. By the time the famous tempered saltwater pool was built in 1925, Newagen had become one of the most prestigious oceanfront resorts on the Maine coast.Newagen has become the insider’s choice in Boothbay Harbor. Just minutes from the attractions of Maine’s midcoast but far from rapidly increasing crowds, the Inn was a way into not just The Way Life Should Be, but the way life was. With its emphasis on simple pleasures centered around the sea, the Inn reintroduced guests to the authentic Maine coast lifestyle while restoring balance to their own lives.Environmental activist and marine biologist Rachel Carson (Silent Spring) was often among them. A frequent guest at the Inn, Rachel wrote lovingly of hearing “the hollow boom of the sea, striking against the rocks” as she relaxed on the Inn’s plank porch overlooking Cape Newagen, met friends at the Restaurant, or explored the pristine woods on the estate. Today, many guests come to the Inn to see the unique environment that so inspired and sustained her, and to make a contemplative pilgrimage down the rocky path to where Rachel’s ashes were scattered – “here at last returned to the sea.”
