About this property

Waterfront & Easy Access to Town-accepting monthly reservations for 2024

Now accepting monthly rental reservations for 2024 (28 day cycle). Check with owner for specifics. Take a full opportunity to soak up the Mid Coast Maine region with no rush to pack it all into a 7 day visit. Barter House is an excellent home base for day trips to the surrounding areas.

May 4th - June 1st
June 8th - July 6th
July 13th - August 10th
August17th - September 14th
September 21st - October 19th

Enjoy watching lobsterman pulling traps or the sailboats cruising by while sipping your favorite wine on the deck. It's all about the location. No need to worry about parking in town because you'll be able to walk to all of the popular restaurants and shops.

This property was originally part of the adjoining estate, as the caretakers residence. Gentle renovations and upgrades through the years have brought this property to the gem it is today without compromising the old world charm. Now back under the ownership of the Manor, the "Captain Barter House" property awaits your arrival. Rent by itself or as part of the estate which includes 3 homes. While 2 properties are pet friendly (402456 & 343069) the Capt Barter House is not. All have incredible ocean/harbor views and are allowed access to the piers and floats.

3 bedrooms with full or partial water views really provide guests the chance to enjoy coastal living at its best. The separate office space for the workaholic offers privacy but partial water views across the covered porch to the harbor.

1 nicely sized full bath is centrally located in the upstairs hallway, accessible to all bedrooms. The second bath is conveniently situated downstairs just off the laundry room (full size W/D).

The equipped kitchen will keep the cook in your group happy and ready to serve fresh, coastal cuisine. The dining area for 6 just off the kitchen offers glass sliders that makes dining all the better thanks to the water views. In good weather, take the meal outside on the deck; nothing like ocean breezes, good friends, and good food. A new awning was added in 2020, offering shade throughout the day.

Cancellation Policy: If a secured reservation is cancelled, there will be a 100% refund of the rental deposit if the same week or month is re-rented. If the same week or month is not re-rented, the rental deposit will be forfeited.

Outstanding views & a charming home!
Barter House was exactly what we were looking for and Shane went out of his way to make us feel welcome! The house is in a quiet neighborhood which allowed our daughter to practice riding her bike. Perfect location to walk to Boothbay Harbor with breathtaking views from every room in the house, we had a great time!

About the host

Hosted by Shane

Host profile image
Summers in Maine, Winters in Florida. Not a bad gig, if I say so myself. The evolution of my love of the water started over 10yrs ago when I left the corporate world to operate a waterfront B&B with my late partner. We eventually transitioned to vacation rentals and I never looked back. My mini compound, as guests have described it, is truly the best location in town. I enjoy sharing this little piece of my magical world with guests from all over the country.

Why they chose this property

This property was originally part of the larger estate (the Manor at Mill Point - 495225), as the caretaker's home. Over the years, the property was sold and is now back, part of the original compound. With this addition to the estate, guests have privacy and access to docks, floats, and an easy walk to town.

What makes this property unique

Part of a group of homes available for rent, all waterfront and within walking distance to town. Ideal for large groups; you're own private peninsula.
