About this property

Walk to town from stylish New England Home.

Welcome travelers! As Maine beckons we want you to know we are continuing our high standards of cleaning and use of additional disinfectants in traffic areas. We offer liberal cancellation policies so if you or members of your party are not feeling well. We have a lockbox so you can enter and leave at will. There are many wonderful activities in the Boothbay and Boothbay Harbor.
The "quintessential cape" is a comfortable New England home with room to spare! It is walking distance to the Boothbay Common with its art shows, farmers markets and ever changing events plus many of the regions amenities. With 3 Bedrooms and 2.5 New Bathrooms, this home offers old features with modern touches. There is a modern "eat-in" kitchen and you can enjoy the private back yard deck or cozy up on a comfortable chair and read a Steven King mystery! We have a window A/C downstairs and in each bedroom. There are just a few "hot days" in summer. The Boothbay Harbor Town Line is virtually across the street, but you are just over 2 miles from the hustle and bustle of the downtown. Experience living in Maine without feeling like a tourist! The house is at a crossroads, go one way to the Harbor, go another way and you can explore Peninsulas, Islands and Lighthouses. We're a couple of minutes to the Coastal Maine Botanical Garden. Magnificent in summer but fantastic during "Gardens Aglow" mid Nov. through Dec. 31st! There will be limited tickets so contact the Botanical Gardens EARLY! Did I forget to mention the quaint shops, restaurants, and lobster shacks in Boothbay & Boothbay Harbor? The Cabbage Island boat ride and lobster bake is not to be missed, but be sure to make reservations well in advance as they book up early! Don't overlook Bet's Fish Fry just off the traffic circle, haddock at its best!

Dissapointed-We Cut Trip In Half
Couldn’t check in on time due to cleaning company still there while my young child sat in car on side of road, unable to go to the bathroom, “walk to town” is actually 2 miles away, house was not cleaned well and after being told by the host they would refund us- they refused to. The house had stains, smears, old food, dirty tubs, unclean dishes and overall was unacceptable. The larger bedroom doesn’t have doors on either entrance (It’s more of a loft style) and because the other main bedroom had a large white stain on comforter and a bunch of spiders and bugs in corner of room and windowsill we opted for the very bright and non-private loft-style room. We found old candy wrappers and dirty used sock in bedroom. Host was unwilling to work with us which is the most disappointing part. We spent the first and only night there re-cleaning items, inspecting the house for what else we might find, bringing all of the blankets etc down to the washing machine, rewashing dishes and after a full day of travel we were so exhausted. We didn’t have time to relax because we woke up and began packing. We went to the gardens we had tickets for after breakfast and got back to the house and left after lunchtime, cutting our trip in half.

beautiful house
The location was very close to a city park. This park was the best park I ever took my grandkids too. The home was beautiful with gorgeous furnishings . The beds were comfortable. The owner was very nice. Although we didn’t use them, there was a very nice game room. You can take the free trolley (please tip) about a half mile from home and this takes you everywhere until 5 pm. That is my suggestion because you don’t have to worry about parking. You also get a birds eye view of all the beautiful things in Bar Harbor. There is a city park on stop that has a beach. It was rocky but so much fun .

Great house in a perfect location!
We so enjoyed our stay! The house had everything we could need, and was centrally located close to everything. The master bathroom was absolutely gorgeous, and the house was spotless and updated too. It was great to have washer and dryer available at the house, and the beds were super comfy! Our host Alan was so easy to work with! Would definitely stay here again!

Convenient & Comfortable
This property was in a convenient location not far from friends who live in Boothbay Harbor. The house was large enough for us to spend time together whether we were watching TV or sharing a meal. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space if needed.
