Reserve before arrival

All downtown RVs and buses require parking permit requested and approved before arrival. Only three spots available; only designated areas, for requested time; update vehicle plate before parking.

Where not to park

RVs/buses are not authorized in ordinary municipal lots or two-/four-hour spaces. Guidance says not in lots or streets, with only permitted-area exception. RV fee listed $5/hour; general lot fees are not RV permission.

No overnight/camping

Official RV section states no RV overnight parking and camping not allowed. Scope is municipal/downtown RV parking guidance, not a private-property RV residency ordinance.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Boothbay Harbor Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm jurisdiction, the actual parcel or road, vehicle classification, position, duration and intended use. Obtain the required road, building, electrical, plumbing or wastewater approvals before relying on a parking exception. Easements, HOA rules and leases remain separate. Start with the official rule or permit guidance.

Use the Boothbay Harbor parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
