Convenient location and pleasant neighborhood. Inside rooms were attractive, clean, and comfortable. A little cleanup right around the front door would have been nice, as would have been a few extra amenities inside -- bath soap, exhaust fan in the bathroom, a night light, tissues....but we made it work. Good stay!

Long weekend in Boothbay

Great location—walking distance to everything in town and yet a very quiet neighborhood. Spacious and very comfortable for my husband and I. There was an initial issue with cleaning service, but owners resolved it and we enjoyed our stay.

Downtown Boothbay Harbor

Fantastic location, convenient, and roomy 1-BR house. Quick walk to down town, where you will find shops and restaurants. Adorable waterfront to walk around down town. Full-service Hannaford’s supermarket just before you get to the house. Was visiting the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, so this was very convenient.

Fantastic Location

Lovely house. Nicely kept. Lots of drawer space to put your stuff. Comfy couch and good tv. Kitchen is nice and clean. Altogether we very much enjoyed our stay. Best thing was the location. Right in town with just a short walk to the harbor, the footbridge, many, many good to great restaurants. We were there for a very (very) hot week but I'm sure most of the year it would be perfect and David left us a good fan to augment the ceiling fans so we were fine.

Overall Review

Property was very clean and location was excellent.Short on some amenities and communication with owner was difficult because of the vrbo process,however once we were able to get through the owner he was very responsive. The process-logistics need improvement and again I believe that this is more s vrbo issue than the owner.

First the good. The location to the downtown is convenient. If you have mobility issues, take note, it is mostly uphill. The bedroom and kitchen is beautifully refinished. Shower water flow is great. Prime was included.However, It smells musty, the kitchen floor was not clean. No air conditioning (it was hot upstairs in the bedroom even with windows open, ceiling fan on and there were big clumps of dust blowing from the floor fan). There were 2 of us/2nights and we only had 2 bath towels layed out (I dug around and found a couple more) and only one hand towel. It could use some living room updates.

Private two story apartment a block from the harbor.

We had fabulous 4 days in Boothbay , visiting beautiful Penaquid , Southport Island, boat cruise, morning coffee near the water, and delicious food at Waves. Fun to look in different shops too. Bed was comfortable, nice readinbathroom was clean but right in bedroom with curtain but no door. That was a negative. Driveway was very steep for climbing and awkward parking space for unloading which was a challenge for 70 yr olds. Good kitchen area and sunny living room. Rivate and semi detached.
