About this property
Harborview Perch... spacious & open floorplan, privacy, harbor view, amenities
"Harborview Perch": comfortable & inviting with spectacular, elevated views of Boothbay Harbor!
"Harborview Perch" accommodates 6 adults very comfortably. There is a bright & spacious living room and fully outfitted cook's kitchen. Master bedroom with king-size bed and private powder room located on the first floor. There is an additional full bath also on the first level. Two other queen bedrooms and powder room are located on the second level. (Note that the property is on a somewhat elevated site and has a steep driveway and one flight of stairs up to the entry. This results in a terrific view, but may be difficult for those with limited mobility.)
This newly renovated home offers ac/heat, Wi-Fi, a 72" smart tv and outdoor BBQ. Nicely stocked with games, puzzles and books for rainy days. Parking available for up to 3 vehicles. All of this is just a one-mile scenic walk to downtown shops and restaurants in historic Boothbay Harbor.
“Harbor Perch” provides you with privacy, peace & quiet and a perfect home-base for exploring the picturesque Maine coast. Relax and enjoy the views. Watch the lobster boats and recreational boating in the harbor below. Bright and sunny....enjoy the beautiful sunrises; summer evenings are lazy and long.
Although "Harborview Perch" is new to VRBO the hosts are not. We recently sold a property in Cundy's Harbor that we rented through VRBO for the past 18 years. We earned the Premier Host badge for this property and are confident that we will earn it here in the future as well.
Explanation of fees:
- Linens: The fee covers fresh bath & kitchen towels and bed sheets along with bath mats at the beginning of each stay. For extended stays, linens will be refreshed each Saturday with the fee repeated. For any mid-week laundry, there is a washer & dryer available in the home.
- Cleaning: The house is of course thoroughly cleaned prior to your arrival. Additional cleaning will be provided each Saturday of extended stays with the fee repeated.
- Property Fee: This is an alternate to security deposits and is essentially owner provided insurance to cover any accidental damage up to $1500.
For multi-week stays, linen service and cleaning will be provided between 10am and 3pm on each Saturday.

About the host
Hosted by Melissa
Melissa and Chris are new residents to Boothbay, but not to Maine. We recently relocated from Kennebunk. We enjoy boating and will often be out enjoying Boothbay Harbor and the surrounding bays and coves on our boat. As such, we may not be on site to greet guests, but will generally be available by phone to help out with any questions or resources.
Why they chose this property
Our second season of hosting at Harborview Perch and now exclusively on VRBO, we purchased this two home property in late 2021. With walking distance to downtown and our yacht club and great views over Boothbay Harbor, we could not pass up the opportunity. One quaint small Victorian for our home and a second more modern home as a VRBO rental.
