About this house rental

The Coal Shack

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Situated in the heart downtown of Boothbay Harbor, our 1-bed studio harborfront apartment - The Coal Shack - is walking distance to independent shops, restaurants and boat cruise tours. Stroll outside your front door to Pier 1 and Pier 8 to book whale watching tours, or arrange day trips to the sleepy and sparsely populated Monhegan Island.

Our newly renovated studio is warmly furnished with timber walls, copper fixtures and rustic furnishings. With one bed and a sofa sleeper, this apartment sleeps two adults and one small child. Our property is ultra pet-friendly. Need somewhere to take your furry friend? Grab your leash, and enjoy the convenience of a grassy park just outside of the front door. Or head to the off-leash trails, which are just a short drive away. Stop into nearby Two Salty Dogs store and grab a treat for your fur baby!

INSIDE THE HOUSE

Timber flooring and walls bring a cozy-yet-updated vibe to this newly renovated 1-bed studio apartment. Unwind in the living area, which has a sleeper sofa, leather swivel chair and flat screen TV.

Double French doors open out to a small mahogany deck with incredible views of Boothbay Harbor. Grab a seat in a padded club chair and watch fishing boats and yachts glide across the water.

A well-equipped kitchen features stunning Brazillian Blue Granite countertops, copper fixtures and contemporary digital appliances including a built-in microwave, dishwasher, convection steam oven, induction stove, Magic Bullet, and Keurig machine for brewing up morning coffees.

After a day of whale watching or shopping around downtown, take a hot soak in a the gorgeous river rock shower. When you’re ready to slumber, head to your relaxing master bedroom where a brand new queen bed awaits.

THE LOCATION

Located in the heart of Downtown Boothbay Harbor, our 1-bed studio is just a block away from the waterfront - with on site parking - putting you within walking distance of fishing, boating and sailing tours. Your four-legged friend will enjoy miles of dog-friendly hiking trails.

Book whale watching trips with Cap'n Fish and go in search of minke and humpback whales surfacing along the Maine coastline. Or head to Schooner Eastwind and enjoy tours around the Burnt and Ram island lighthouses. Take part in Cabbage Island lobster bakes, and enjoy some locally caught oysters on the half shell!

Our central location is also just a short stroll from local shops, independent home decor stores and fabulous restaurants. For traditional Italian classics, walk next door to Ports of Italy or a short walk to Harborside Tavern for a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner. You can also indulge on specialty foods at Eventide (located right across the street), buy a special treat for your furry friend at Two Salty Dogs Pet Outfitters, and visit Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, which hosts Garden's Aglow and Festival of Lights in Boothbay Harbor.

Winter nights are aglow at Boothbay's Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens! Maine's largest light display just got even larger, with over 360,000 (and counting!) LED lights illuminating the central gardens and buildings and drawing festive crowds from all over.

This unit was perfect for the two of us and our small dog. The apartment is in the center of Boothbay Harbor with water views. I am used to supplying our own paper goods after the initial single roll of tp and paper towels at VRBO rentals. The owner supplied plenty of everything to make our stay perfect. I would definitely rent this unit again or refer to friends.

This spot is even better than the pictures show. We loved the proximity to the water, shops and restaurants. You’ll really love the deck…especially at night with the moon and/or lights on the water!

The Coal Shack Condo was everything we had hoped it would be. It was clean, comfortable, inviting and incredibly well-stocked. The view of the harbor was beautiful! Vacasa provided great information and made our check-in and check-out easy, too. The location could not have been more perfect!!!! It is within close walking distance to several restaurants with views of the water ( and great food) and close to the wharf. Walking across the bridge and just strolling through the cute little town quickly became our favorite thing to do everyday! Needless to say, we loved our stay and highly recommend it ! Thank you!!
