Spacious, great location

Wonderful stay!

We stayed here for a weekend in November to see the Gardens Aglow lights at the Botanical Gardens. It was a cold weekend but sunny, the house was cozy and warm. The home itself sits up on a hill with amazing views and beautiful sunsets. There’s a nice large deck off the back. The kitchen had very basic supplies but no cooking essentials like salt and pepper, any type of spices or oils which sometimes you find in rentals. I bought some and left them behind for the next person. We found dirty dishes and glasses in the cabinets which I reported to Vacasa. The furnishings are very basic and minimal. The sofa was very uncomfortable and the TV was a little difficult to figure out with no instructions. The bedroom on the first floor was very spacious and comfortable. There’s a full bath off that bedroom that was clean but there are obnoxious bright LED bulbs in the vanity lights, you need sunglasses on while you’re in there lol. They used the same type of bulbs in the chandelier over the dining table that doesn’t have a dimmer so very bright. The stairs to the second floor are VERY steep! Caution for those with small children or the elderly. The carpet on the stairs and the second floor common area is so disgustingly stained that I reported that as well. It looked like someone spot cleaned it but it only made it look worse as the carpet needs to be replaced. There’s two bedrooms upstairs, one with a queen, the other with two twins and there’s one random twin bed in the common area. It’s a very campy feeling on the second floor. It is a short 15 minute walk into town but keep in mind that you are up on a hill which is easy to walk down but might be difficult for some to walk back up. This house has potential but needs more TLC!

Pleasant home with water views from both the east and west. As others have suggested, we pushed the twin beds together for a larger bed and the stairs are quite steep. Comfortable furniture and nicely outfitted.

We loved everything about this house. Very spacious and comfortable! The outdoor space was excellent, huge deck, fire pit, great yard! The location was perfect, Barrett park is walking distance and we spent a whole day swimming and paddle boarding. A little bit of a walk to downtown but not bad at all and its a lovely walk across the new footbridge. The house and bedrooms we very comfortable and plenty of space. Looking forward to staying here again!

Nice house in a great location. It was wonderful to have a first floor bed and bath since we were traveling with my elderly parents. The location made it easy to walk or drive to Boothbay Harbor. The only minor issues we found were spotty wi-fi and the latch on the front screen door did not work properly. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice walk to the harbor on pedestrian foot bridge. Boothbay Harbor is a great area convenient to Portland and Camden Rockport and Inland areas. We did day trips almost every day.

We loved the house and location. It's a great location, the view from the back deck is wonderful. The deck is huge and the BBQ a great addition. The rooms are all a great size and comfortable. They're only a couple things we would have liked, changed or added. The stairs leading to the upstairs room are so step my mother in law and aunt who are in their 70s and 80s could not walk up. The steps are so small I had to walk up on my tippy toes and my husband side ways. I think if there are railings on both sides it would make it easier to walk up, balance ourselves. Another suggestion changing the twin beds in the upper room to a double, so there are two beds in the room and the twin in the middle room. My husband I ended up pushing the two twin beds together, this gave us more room. Maybe add a double bed in the second room. Also, the outside lights for the deck don't stay on. I recommend adding more out side lights, so when BBQing in the evening there is light. We had to hold a flashlight when the boys where BBQing. Made for great jokes but our arms got tired. :0) I would suggest, recommend putting more outdoor lighting on the back deck, BBQ area and firepit are. Oh, and maybe some chairs to sit around the firepit. Again, we loved the house, location and are considering renting it again next year, especially if some of the our suggestion are made. Thank you
