About this property

"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.

Great location to check out Boothbay Harbor

We enjoyed our stay at Harborview Perch and its proximity to town. The house was generally clean, although there were a few areas that needed maintenance. The AC system worked great. It was an unusually hot stretch for September. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans, but bring your own condiments. The beds have pillow-toppers on the mattresses. The king-sized bed needs more support, in our opinion. The linens and towels were high quality, and there were plenty of them.

Loved Our Stay - Excellent Location Too (House was perfect)

Our hosts were extremely accommodating and communicative. I have had problems in the past with VBRO and hosts. Melisa was very responsive in our communications, which was so reassuring.

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.
