I absolutely LOVED staying here and wished we had booked a longer stay! The cottage was so sweet and nice. It was exceptionally clean. The couch was wonderful and the TV was great. Parking was easy and the cottage was easy to find. It also had a great location. Kitchen was also nice. I loved the upstairs bedroom. The bed and pillows were so comfy! (I actually purchased the same pillows when I got back home). I haven't had a nice rest in a long time. Since we didn't overspend on our lodging, we were able to go on a whale watch and eat out and buy some souvenirs. I loved my short visit to Booth Bay Harbor. My only complaint was that we didn't stay longer. Communication was also prompt and courteous. Thank you!!!! Hope to return soon!!!

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.

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!

Quaint little home located close to town. Perfect for me and my sister to enjoy a long awaited vacation. The bed was so comfortable. House was very clean and located in a great spot. Owners were very responsive to many emails and provided great local restaurant and activities to attend.

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.
