This luxury retreat in the heart of the Mid-Coast, Captain's Quarters, is an 1800s Boothbay Harbor cottage offering historic charm, modern furnishings, air-conditioning, and a prime locale looking directly out to the footbridge and across the street from the bay. A peaceful coastal getaway awaits, and you're only a short walk to the downtown shops and dining. You'll find a local brunch hot spot and a spa at your doorstep. When the day is done, head across the street to the sunset chairs providing the best view in town of the footbridge. Play golf or go sailing. Walk a half mile to Commercial Street and choose from whale watching at Maine Whale Watch, several great cruise operators, or renting a boat at Schooner Eastward.
Unwind into vacation mode in the modern living area. In the evening, listen to music on the Sonos system or settle in to stream a movie on the 55' 4k smart TV with access to Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, and all of today's online entertainment. Prepare your favorite meals in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring an array of helpful appliances, including a dishwasher. Or, keep mealtime simple and sizzle burgers on the shared gas grill on the patio behind the building.
Each bedroom in this three-story home has a smart TV, bedside USB charging, and Bluetooth music systems. Find comfort in the primary suite, which has an en suite bathroom accessible via the hallway. A guest bedroom features a telescope for gazing out to the sites in the harbor.
Extra perks include a washer/dryer, complimentary commercial-grade WiFi, and a backup generator.

Excellent location and very well maintained. Great WiFi.

The upper apartment of the cottage was nice for our family of 5. Location is perfect to reach either side of the harbor within a 7 minute walk. The cafe downstairs is a town favorite but only takes cash. FYI. The steps inside the apartment to the third floor are extremely steep and shallow so be mindful if you have any older people or younger people that can’t easily navigate ladder-like stairs. The closet spaces within the upstairs rooms are very limited but there are dressers in each room with ample space to unpack.One note: There is no bathroom on the third floor where the 2/3 bedrooms are so if you have to wake up at night, it’s a steep climb down to the single bathroom and back up, in the dark! The kitchen appliances are very limited and utensils/kitchen dishes are sparse. This is a problem that needs attention. There was one cereal bowl in the whole house. - there is a Roku speaker that is nice to have for days you may be spending inside and a nice long table for puzzles and card games. Overall, the place is clean and has a lot of charm in the beautiful Boothbay setting.

Stayed here for 3 nights with wife and in-laws. Listing doesn't do a very good job of telling you that the unit is not the building, but a smaller suite upstairs.
Place was clean and updated. Kitchen had all of the bare essentials to do minor cooking (making breakfast was fine). One bedroom is on the main level, directly connected to the single bathroom. Other two bedrooms are up a VERY steep set of stairs that anyone that is not a child would struggle to use more than once. Doorframes on the upstairs units are also very low, anyone 6'2 or tall will easily bump their head unless they are actively avoiding it, as I did.
Also, the price of the cleaning fee for this small of a place is absurd.
