Great location. House needs some love

The owners have done quite a few things to puff up the property, mostly inside. But there are many things inside that are very subpar. The living room furniture was probably the most undesirable. The cleanliness of the outer area was not good at all as well as all the windows and sills. Inside, behind the beds and all the baseboards and inside closets was untouched by vacuums or dusting. many lights were burned out. Placemats and potholders were moldy. The stairs to the upper rooms are dangerously narrow. We loved the location but the sunrise and sunset were best visible by a short walk. Not from the property. With a bit of love, attention to detail and some investment, it could be great.

Great location and deck and that’s about it

House needs a lot of love. Have to open the windows because there is no ac, which is fine, but when you do there are dead bugs everywhere. The washer was not working so major inconvenience, and to get a response from rental people took three tries. Liked the walk ability to town and the lobster wharf.

Disappointed

Time to put more money back into this property. The location is great. We could walk to the downtown. That being said. No A/C is a real problem in this property in the summer. The stairway is steep and the railing isn’t to code. The planters outside have dirt and weeds growing in them. The tables and window sills were dirty. All knives were dull and would not cut celery. Upstairs beds are uncomfortable. Window shade is taped to the window. Closet doors are hard to open and hinge is broken on one bedroom door. Bathroom upstairs window has no screen and hard to open. Disappointed but it was nice to be able to reunite with our distant adult family members.

Great space to spend a week in Maine

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 House and Great Location

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.

The Vacasa team was great very responsive to assist

Vacasa was helpful, however what would be helpful for renters, would be to have the wifi ID and PW posted somewhere in the house. I had to text Vacasa to get it. I also ha dto Terxt to see about getting cushions for the outdoor deck furniture. Some items of notice that the owner should address. The storm door catches whether locked or not and you need to push the catch bar to get out. Coming in if fine, that would not be good in the event of a fire. The toilet upstairs runs constantly and the upstairs drain is very slow. Thanks

Short trip to Boothbay

This house is in a beautiful and convenient location. The house needs work and more amenities to give it above an “okay” rating. No basic pantry items. Minimal basic cooking needs. House was generally clean, but it is an old house and has some dingy spots. Be careful of hidden fees if it is booking through Vacasa. We paid more than we should have for this house.

Overall the property was clean and lovely. Need trash cans in bathroom and dishwasher tabs .

Easy, but additional fees should be indicated when looking at property. Emailed regarding hairdryer availability and did not receive a response.

Very clean, no frills

Everything was very clean when we arrived. Rooms all as described. First couple of days were warm, but there are several well-placed fans and they kept us all comfortable as long as the windows were open. Everything was quiet at night and everyone slept well (including our two young kids). It was a peaceful stay. Only thing that was a little annoying was the upstairs toilet which was almost always running, but it was a very minor annoyance and didn’t really affect our stay. Overall it’s a great value, and I’d stay there again.

A getaway to stay

There really wasn't a need to get in the car to go anywhere. Even when we needed something from the grocery store it was only 5 minutes away. Plenty of room and the deck is huge.
