I loved how close this was to downtown. We walked to dinner and loved grabbing a coffee at Red Cup every morning. The house was clean and loved the added touches by the owner. I would stay here again.

Great little getaway

The apartment has everything you could possibly need for your trip. If you do need something, the host is very happy to assist. Short walk to the heart of town so you don't have to deal with parking. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Fantastic location!

Loved our long weekend at the Captain’s Quarters! The location is perfect for dining, shopping and walking in Boothbay Harbor without any hassle of parking in town. The rental was just as described, was beautifully clean and well stocked. Great communication with our hosts. We had come to kayak for the weekend and spots to drive to launch were easy to find. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful

Deanne and Dave are wonderful hosts. You are staying right in town. Restaurants, shops, art galleries and the harbor are all right outside your front door. The rental is spotless and equipped with all the amenities you will need. You have your own parking spot which is a necessity in this quaint little town. We already plan to return in the near future. Points of interest: the Puffin/Whale Watch is a must. Pemaquid Point Lighthouse and the Coastal Botanical Gardens were such a treat. Dave mentioned Barrett Park, but we never made it over there. FYI: Ports of Italy is outstanding! Thank you to Deanne and Dave for maintaining such a wonderful place to relax and enjoy Boothbay Harbor!

ENJOYED our BBH return visit

Had a great time, location good even for a person needing a cane for walking. Furniture in LR only OK for sitting, the futon is extremely uncomfortable for a place to sit. Difficulty in finding place, I'd be more apt to say, look for 'parking area' or at least mentioning that, we thought that was for 'pay to park' not where we'd find entrance into VRBO--likewise the person upstairs felt the same he knocked on front door to find where to go... I'd provide a 'warm blanket' in case nights get chilly as did for us, thank heavens i had a car blanket or we'd have been very chilly. ALL was good, and would recommend. Thanks for the stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Sept 2023
Thank you for your tips. I wish you had let us know while you were here. There are plenty of extra blankets, two are in a basket right in the living room. The guests before you let us know there was an issue with the futon, but until then we did not know that. There is now a new leather couch in the living room. I’m not sure why there would be any issue with the other furniture one is a fairly new recliner, fully automated which many people have complimented. I believe our welcoming instructions ask you to park in the rear of the building beside the sign with the name of the rental. Sorry if there was any confusion.

Very nice, clean 1 bedroom house conveniently located right in downtown Boothbay Harbor. They provided nice and thoughtful extras to make you feel welcome. The owners were very accommodating and even suggested some nice places to go eat with beautiful views. We would definitely love to make another trip up this way and stay here again!

Great apartment in a perfect location

We loved this roomy apartment located just a block from the harbor. Deanne and Dave were great hosts. When we arrived we very quickly realized that there was a major problem with the refrigerator, as it was making very loud and annoying noises, which was later diagnosed as a failed bearing in the compressor. Our hosts handled the problem as efficiently as possible, and managed to replace the refrigerator the very next day, which was much appreciated.

Optimal Location in Boothbay Harbor

My husband and I thankfully were able to book this property a week and a half before we were to travel, and we were glad that we did! The Captain’s Quarters one-bedroom apartment is quite clean, has wood floors (no carpeting), and does include the main necessities for cooking in the kitchen. We appreciated the lovely bathroom, the use of the washer and dryer, and king-sized pillows on the comfortable queen bed. The location is wonderful, creating an easy walk to the downtown shops and restaurants. The inclusion of parking with this booking was very useful as well, especially since we left on day trips to explore Freeport and the Pemaquid Point Light House! The owners do live on site, are very friendly, and take great care in maintaining their property! We hope to return to Boothbay Harbor in the future!

This cute in-town apartment more than met my expectations. Everything was super clean and fresh. The space was large and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Easy walk to pick up morning coffee and croissants that we ate dockside. A number of restaurants and shops also within walking distance. Owners were very responsive to questions. Would definitely stay again.
