Where Coastal Simplicity Meets Elevated Escape

Redesigned by Bigtime Design Studios, Ocean Gate Resort is a reimagined waterfront sanctuary nestled among the evergreens and rocky shores of Boothbay, Maine. Our team brought a refined yet relaxed design sensibility to this storied property, layering rustic New England character with contemporary ease to create a retreat that feels both timeless and fresh.

The resort’s 65 guest rooms and suites are thoughtfully styled with tactile materials—linen, wood, stone—and a serene coastal palette that mirrors the surrounding seascape. Many feature private balconies or decks that open to sweeping views of the Atlantic, encouraging guests to slow down, breathe deep, and connect with nature.

Public spaces are redefined for modern gathering and quiet retreat—sun-washed lounges, a heated outdoor pool, and flexible event venues that host everything from intimate weddings to corporate off-sites. Every detail, from lighting to layout, is calibrated for comfort and discovery.

Bigtime also led the full rebrand of Ocean Gate Resort, shaping a visual identity and tone of voice that honors its place while inviting a new generation of travelers. The result is a destination that feels familiar yet forward, rooted in Maine’s rugged beauty but elevated with thoughtful design, storytelling, and soul.

Ocean Gate is no longer just a place to stay—it’s a state of mind. A serene, design-forward hideaway where forest meets sea, and the experience of getting away feels anything but ordinary.
