With nearly 2,500 square feet, this home offers plenty of room and privacy for you and your guests. There is ample private parking. We have window A/C downstairs and in each of the bedrooms. There are just a few "hot days" in summer.

Each of the three bedrooms (located upstairs) have comfortable beds with a queen size bed in the primary, a queen size bed in the second room, and two twin beds in the third room. The primary bedroom has a four poster bed and an en suite bathroom. The upstairs has another full bathroom. All bathrooms are stocked with amenities such as soap, shampoo/conditioner, and body wash.

There is a sofa bed with a Bob-O-Pedi mattress in the downstairs sunroom with a barn door for added privacy.

We provide a Keurig and a Cuisinart gold filter coffee maker and a coffee grinder. We have a new electric five-burner stove. You can enjoy your meals on the private and large deck facing the back yard which incudes a gas bbq. All bbq equipment is provided, including a spare tank of gas. We provide all basic kitchen amenities including spices, oils, trash bags, foil, plastic wrap, etc.

There are 2 sets of stairs to the upstairs bedrooms, including one directly into the primary bedroom. Additionally, there are two steps on the first floor, one of which is a step up into the kitchen and another step down into the sunken living room. These steps are well marked for your safety.

On one side of the yard, there is a 8 foot deep pool which is fully covered and fenced around the entire permitter. The fence is locked and the pool is not used. There are signs around the pool to not enter. This is for your safety.

This was a great home! Easy check-in, great location that was 5 minutes from the harbor driving, 6 minutes to the beautiful botanical gardens. The home was cozy and fit our needs. Our only little suggestion is to trim the bush by the mailbox because it was hard to see oncoming traffic when backing out of the driveway.

Beautiful Boothbay Region

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It was both clean and comfortable. Just a short drive to Boothbay Harbor where we enjoyed many very good restaurants. We also took a whale watching excursion but didn't see any whales.We spent a day at Popham Beach and two days at Acadia National Park. Both are highly recommended. The rest of the days we spent exploring the Botanical Gardens, the Maine State Aquarium, Southport, and the Boothbay Brewery, which was nearby the property.We used the onsite grill to make a wonderful steak and lobster meal. It was wonderful!Maine is a beautiful state and we all enjoyed exploring it. Thank you for the sharing this property with us.

Great House, Welcoming Hosts

The house was very clean and spacious. The location was perfect to get to Boothbay attractions. We enjoyed the puzzles and games that were at the house. We had fun on a harbor cruise, exploring the coast, and finding the giant trolls at the Botanical Garden.

The house was spacious and well appointed. By far, the biggest issue is the house's location right on a terribly busy highway. The road noise was very disruptive for sleeping. The bedrooms are 20 feet or so from the busy road. The entrance was hard to find, especially at night. Bushes on the property near the entrance need to be cut back for better sight views.The beds were extremely soft and unconfortable. We like to cook our own food and the kitchen was not well equipped to do so.As i said it is a spacious home but the road noise alone is a reason I would not 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.

Amazing Thanksgiving weekend

We are two couples who spent Thanksgiving weekend at this lovely house. It was perfect! The house is very clean, spacious, convenient and well decorated. It is ideally located in a quiet neighborhood within a short drive to several easy and picturesque hikes, two small towns with shops and restaurants. We also enjoyed visiting Gardens Aglow and Pemaquid Point, savoring local oysters from Scully's Oyster & Lobster Market and spending chilly November evenings by the fireplace. Thank you, dear hosts, for the wonderful weekend we had!

Perfection

This home is SO comfortable… spacious and cozy at the same time, with lots of room for gathering together downstairs, and three very comfortable, private bedrooms upstairs. We couldn’t recommend it more highly. Our only suggestion would be more equipment in the kitchen but hey, there are lots of great restaurants in BBH, so who wants to cook anyhow? Thanks for affording us such lovely accommodations, we will definitely be back.

Boothbay

The property worked out fine. Once we got the heat turned on and the smoke alarms working, we enjoyed our stay. It was a quick car ride to Booth Bay and right around the corner from the Botanical Gardens. We came for the pumpkin festival and the location was about 15 minutes away.

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 .

About the host

Host profile image
I've lived in Maine for 18 years throughout my life, including permanently for the last 10 years in both Kennebunk and Dresden. My wife and I love houses with character, small towns, and quaint villages. The home in Boothbay checks all of those boxes and more!

We are frequent VRBO/Airbnb users and love to furnish and stock the Boothbay house with all of the comforts and modern amenities we enjoy when we travel. Specifically, we appreciate fine linens, a well-stocked kitchen, and a sparkling clean place, so we like to provide that to our guests.

I've had a life-long passion for antiques and have bought and furnished many houses during my life, so I take great pride in the furnishings for the Boothbay house so the guests are both comfortable as well have have a place with character and classic New England charm.

We are well traveled and spend the winter months each year in southern Portugal, in Lagos. We are always happy to get back to Maine.

Share your travel stories with us; we're always looking for a new adventure!

Why they chose this property

Boothbay Harbor is a peninsula with incredible ocean views, wonderful restaurants, lighthouses (because Maine), boat tours, as many lobsters as you can eat, and a chance to go island hopping. There is also a world-class botanical garden. There are art galleries, local shops, antique stores, and as many nautical-themed stores as you could imagine for you to stroll in and out of.

The house is located 5 minutes from Boothbay Harbor in the town of Boothbay. The benefit is that you get to stay close to all the action but without the noise and tourists and with private parking. The house is very spacious with 2,500 square feet, and a half an acre to enjoy. There's a large backyard and deck.

What makes this property unique

The Boothbay house is unique for several reasons, one of which is that it's quite spacious (2,500 sq ft) and quiet and peaceful. The furnishings are a mix of antiques and modern, all of which are comfortable. I take great pride in furnishing houses, and spend a lot of time decorating to create a warm and inviting space.

This space also has a large backyard and a deck with Adirondack chairs and a bbq to enjoy.

The space is also well equipped for kids. We provide a travel crib and various toys and games for kids.
