This is a great property in a great location for taking advantage of all of the things there are to do around Booth Bay. Close enough for a quick walk to town for a coffee in the morning and within a 10 minute drive of any of the other things we wanted to do in the area! The house is clean and a good size. Not much outdoor space for the kids to play, it did look in the listing as if it had more of a yard, but we didn’t spend a lot of time hanging around the house to need it anyway.
This was a clean property with one bedroom and a full bathroom downstairs. We were a party of seven
We had a two-night stay. And since we were so close to the harbor, it made for easy walks to the points of interest nearby; easy walk to the harbor. We could see the harbor from out the windows. We cooked on the newer clean grill. You need to sign into your own Roku account to use the TV which we did to see the Olympics.

Comfortable, but some issues
The beds were extremely comfortable, kitchen was great. The house needs a different entry system (the 10 digit push pad took several times to work); kitchen was great, as were the bathrooms (except no hot shower in upstairs bath); beds very comfortable. The stairway is a little dicey upstairs.
Great location, clean house. However, limited kitchen equipment, dishes, coffee cups, etc. for a house that sleeps 10. Also, only an apartment-sized refrigerator, no ice maker, two-burner grill. Makes it difficult to cook meals in the house for more than 3-4.

Family Reunion
Beautiful house in a great location. Walking distance to town and the water. House was very clean and the kitchen came with everything we needed to prepare our meals. The only things to note is that there were only air conditioning window units in 2 out of the 5 bedrooms and none in the downstairs living room area. There was a small yard, but the neighbors have “No Trespassing” signs posted all along their property line, so we did not feel comfortable going on the lawn whatsoever. I would definitely stay here again.
We rented this for a long weekend for Bowdoin graduation. I wanted something to bring a great northeast/New England experience for my family who’ve never been to Maine. The house has been beautifully updated, rooms were very comfortable and an awesome location - easily walkable to/from town even if a little hilly. Only feedback for improvement would be to have more mirrors in bedrooms so people can get ready outside of the bathroom- it was challenging on the days we all had to get out the door at the same time (8 people). Also of note- the house is old, so electrical outlets are limited (in a few bedrooms)- had to buy an extension cord for a c pap machine. Lastly, looks like the driveway was expanded so we fit 3 cars easily (even though I bought an extra parking spot in town as the listing says only 2 spots). I highly recommend this great house!
I was hosting a group of family and friends who were coming and going, and the location in Boothbay Harbor was perfect, so that folks could be independent (coffee here, drinks there, lobster roll plus ONLY at Dunton’s, so perfect and close by!). The oven smoked too much to be useable (even on preheat and after communicating with Vacasa and our trying multiple oven cleaning sprays). There was a broken bed support for the bed on the main floor (communicated to Vacasa, but no reply) and black mold in the upstairs shower (should be easy to fix!). Otherwise, a great property - although I would note that there’s is an odd and treacherous drop down step for the upstairs - I just left a bag there, so no one would step down 3 steps instead of going on the other side of the top stairs, where it was easier! But spacious, clean, and well located!
I booked this house for Mother's day weekend. My family and I had a good time and there was plenty of space for the kids and adults to spread out. It is a very old house, and it shows. The floors and doors are creaky, and the heat only worked downstairs. There were space heaters upstairs at least. We didn't get to spend much time on the patio, but that was partly due to the neighbor. My stepdad had an incident where he didn't notice their "private property" signs and mistakenly left a chair on their side. Instead of talking to him, the neighbor waited until he went inside and slammed the chair against the stairs. Then the kids tried to play outside but the neighbor's dog kept barking incessantly and it wasn't pleasant. We had some cleanliness issues but Vacasa was very responsive to us and even offered to have someone come out the next morning to rectify the issues.
Overall, we had a good stay.
The cottage is lovely. Really well kept, spacious and centrally located to walk to everything you need. The bedrooms are perfectly appointed, and beds were really comfortable. We spent tons of time in the large open kitchen. The place has modern amenities while keeping the historic charm of the house and the neighborhood. The area has excellent shops and restaurants. The cottage is also well situated for short road trips to Southport Island and Ocean point in East Boothbay for incredible open ocean views. The only quirk we encountered was parking. Since there are so many bedrooms, there were several adults staying at the cottage from different parts of New England. The two car limit created a pretty decent situation for us to solve. The VRBO team had no option, and suggested calling the chamber of commerce. They didn't have off-season overnight parking. They suggested calling the gas station a few blocks away, which we did, and they had spots for us to rent , but it was their last weekend of the season, so that's something to note. That was sorted out, and we had a fantastic Fall weekend in a gorgeous, spacious cottage in beautiful Boothbay Harbor!
House was just as it was posted. Beds were very comfortable. We were able to walk to town and enjoy the shops and restaurants. Nice patio for coffee and relaxing. I would definitely stay there again.
The house worked well for two families. It was in a great location with a short walk into town to shopping and restaurants. We very much enjoyed our stay!
House was very convenient to town, just walk down the hill. We were very comfortable there.

great stay in maine
This was a great house to spend a family vacation week in Maine. Its newly renovated house had plenty of room. The location was great, within walking distance to Boothbay Harbour.
Well appointed home, lovely views from the deck. Only recommendation: if the hottest day of the year is forecast, please have the 2 upstairs AC units installed, set up and functioning, before guest arrival.
