This is a great place to stay. It was perfect for us because my wife has mobility issues and the ramp and downstairs bed allowed a comfortable stay. Convenient location, plenty of parking. The host was a jewel. Very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend.
Excellent and as advertised. Family and friends had a wonderful experience. Walking distance to the harbor, restaurants, retail and entertainment.
Would stay again.
We had a great time! Lovely location and the house was clean and comfortable. Jules was a wonderful host…responsive and helpful. She even picked up food in Portland for us! We are looking forward to another stay at the Farmhouse BBH in the summer.

Thank you, Robin! Happy to help any time. LOVED getting to see Molly - what a cutie! See you in summer!
Jules was extremely helpful and gave us tips on places to visit. The house was very comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. Will definitely return
This property was fantastic! The rooms were spacious as were the bathrooms. The living space was also perfect for our family of 6. The stairs are steep - know that, but it was worth it! Jules was amazing at communication! The location is perfect! We really enjoyed our stay and exploration of Boothbay Harbor. We all agree that we definitely recommend!
This property met our needs extremely well. Well appointed with tasteful, comfortable furnishings. If you like to walk everything you might need or want is at your footsteps. Perfect for our multigenerational family. No downsides except
located between two rather busy streets with traffic noise. So if that is not a concern for you then PERFECT !
Everything about this experience has been amazing. The property, location, check in was flawless. That being said what we were most impressed with was our lovely host Julianna. Great communication and we genuinely felt welcomed to her lovely home. The little extras go a long for us. Extra items we didn’t need to buy and things we didn’t know we needed were all there for us. Thanks again Julianna for making our first trip to Boothbay harbor a splendid one and we look forward to next year.
We were overblown by the amenities in this house...she's really thoughtfully thought of everything from makeup towels to beach towels! More space than we imagined from the pictures, the attention to every detail, the "newness" feeling in an old house makes you feel like you've stepped back in time but with all the modern conveniences. Easy walk to everything in Boothbay. Great communication. I would move here if I could!
Everything about this stay was amazing! Jules is the most attentive host - we were armed with so many recommendations from the time of booking. Really helped us plan our family visit. The house! What can I say? You won't believe it! It is so spacious and beautiful. The location - also amazing. We walked everywhere! The only thing that wasn't amazing about this wonderful home was that we didn't book it long enough! Next time, we will stay much longer. THANK YOU for your care as a host in all the details!
This home exceeded our expectations. A group of girlfriends stayed for a getaway to visit Monhegan Island and Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, and just spend some time relaxing together. This VRBO is even nicer than the pictures show. We loved that we could walk almost everywhere. We walked to dinner each evening (Boathouse Bistro was by far our favorite restaurant!) and we could walk to the ferry to Monhegan. The house had plenty of room for us to spread out (the three bathrooms was a bonus). We didn't really cook meals, but we could have. The beds were comfortable, and the home was clean & inviting. Jules was almost immediate in communication. Would absolutely stay again if in the area and would recommend without reservation. If you are visiting Boothbay Harbor, do not miss taking the ferry to Monhegan for a day trip and the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens - absolute gems in the state of Maine!
Our family loved the farmhouse! The home was charming and perfectly appointed. The stylish and thoughtful details truly make it feel like a home. Most importantly, the character has been preserved, and while staying there, we truly felt like we lived in Boothbay. The location was fantastic - we walked to the harbor for shopping, dining, sailing, and more. The kids played monopoly in the game room each night. We enjoyed a family movie night in the living room. There was so much great space to spread out! Boothbay was a fantastic oasis to explore what life in a harbor-side Maine town might feel like, and we loved it. Jules goes the EXTRA mile to ensure we had a great experience. It felt more like we were staying in an inn than a rental property. Her recommendations were excellent. We really appreciate her environmentally motivated decisions to reduce waste. Having the shower supplies was fantastic! I will absolutely recommend Boothbay to anyone looking for a magical location to enjoy Maine in the fall and insist they stay at the Farmhouse.

Ellie, thank you so much for your kind review. I am thrilled you had such a positive experience staying here and that it truly felt like a home. I hope that you and your family had a great rest of your trip through rural Maine. I hope to host you again in the future!
We stayed at this house for a wedding weekend that we were attending! The location is absolutely perfect within a 10 min walk to everything you could possible need. Less than a 10 min drive to the botanical gardens which are highly recommended!
First off this house was amazing with every little detail. Each room had an air conditioner considering it was surprisingly hot during our September stay that was great made it comfortable! Each bathroom fully stocked with towels and rags and shampoo conditioner and blow dryer! I’m usually the one to super pack for a rental home as most don’t come with anything anymore but this house had extra trash bags paper towels toilet paper litterally anything you could think of it was there! Extra linens and blankets in every little area it was amazing! The upstairs not only had two nice sized bedrooms but the other lounge room had a tv that my son hooked his game system up and enjoyed with a sink and mini fridge and a pull out sofa which was perfect for him because he’s only 9 and still pretty small so he fit pretty well on that. There’s a bedroom bathroom on third floor attic are which was very large with two twin beds.
The down stairs living room was comfy and tv was perfect for my husband who wanted to enjoy Sunday football. Overall this house had everything we needed and more it was just perfect
Ps. Highly recommend mine oyster!
Charming updated farmhouse within walking distance to Boothbay Harbor
This was a wonderful place to rent for a quick weekend getaway to see Garden Aglow with a group of 7 adults. We found the interior to be exactly as described and pictured on VRBO. The interior is spacious with 3 floors. First floor is main living area along with a large kitchen and butler pantry . Full bathroom off hall leading toward sunroom. Murphy bed is also on this floor in a pretty white cabinet when not in use. Second floor has 2 bedrooms that were the king and queen and very large bathroom . Rooms designed well for actual use. Third floor does have some steeper stairs but added handrail available plus has a small full bathroom so don’t have to go and down stairs in night. We had plenty of space to socialize or if someone wanted some quite space the game room on second floor worked perfect. There is a small fridge in game room and in 3rd floor bedroom which I thought were nice added touches especially if renting for a week. Layout of all the rooms felt purposeful, welcoming and comfortable. Job well done. Jules was fantastic with communication and recommendations . Binder in kitchen with local information.
I am going to list 2 things a future renter may want to know. The upstairs twins are really more suitable for kids or shorter stature adults. Our group is tall. I am 5’8 and slept in one with my feet touching footboard. Manageable for 2 nights. There is also some road noise as you are right in downtown but on the flip side you are “right in downtown”. Huge benefit for summer as would not have to worry about trying to find a parking spot as explore that area.
Highly recommend and would definitely rebook.

This (townhouse style) modern farmhouse was perfect for our trip to Boothbay Harbor. It was a 5 min walk to the downtown so everything you need is right there and was well appointed. We mostly ate out but the kitchen had everything would would have needed to cook a simple meal and all the dinnerware was all new/nice. There were plenty of blankets throughout the house to make for cozy lounging. The weather was cool enough while we were there so the AC wasn't a real concern but there seemed to be plenty of windows units to ensure comfort even during hot summer days. Would absolutely stay there again.Some things that may be helpful to know and hard to ascertain from the pictures and description alone...It has the characteristics you would expect of an old farmhouse; uneven floors etc. Here are some of the ways that played out for us:- The rooms were smaller and there was a door you could close to most every egress. This was helpful as it made it easy for us to contain our dog to certain spaces. - Compared to a new construction the stairs were steeper (especially going to the 3rd floor), the railings lower and balusters further apart. We ended up carrying our French Bulldog up/down the stairs as he wasn't good with the different riser height and covered the rail at the top of the stairs with a blanket because he was small enough to walk right between them and doesn't have enough sense not to. Also, the outdoor space is minimal but it is there is a small space to use.
That PERFECT “hidden gem”…Jules, the host, provides so much attention to detail and her home is SPECTACULAR…a place you’ll want to KEEP COMING BACK TO…nestled within such a unique area and it was such a pleasure to leave the car parked in the driveway and have the flexibility and convenience to walk EVERYWHERE!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!!!!!
