Harborview Perch... spacious & open floorplan, privacy, harbor view, amenities

"Harborview Perch": comfortable & inviting with spectacular, elevated views of Boothbay Harbor!

"Harborview Perch" accommodates 6 adults very comfortably. There is a bright & spacious living room and fully outfitted cook's kitchen. Master bedroom with king-size bed and private powder room located on the first floor. There is an additional full bath also on the first level. Two other queen bedrooms and powder room are located on the second level. (Note that the property is on a somewhat elevated site and has a steep driveway and one flight of stairs up to the entry. This results in a terrific view, but may be difficult for those with limited mobility.)

This newly renovated home offers ac/heat, Wi-Fi, a 72" smart tv and outdoor BBQ. Nicely stocked with games, puzzles and books for rainy days. Parking available for up to 3 vehicles. All of this is just a one-mile scenic walk to downtown shops and restaurants in historic Boothbay Harbor.

“Harbor Perch” provides you with privacy, peace & quiet and a perfect home-base for exploring the picturesque Maine coast. Relax and enjoy the views. Watch the lobster boats and recreational boating in the harbor below. Bright and sunny....enjoy the beautiful sunrises; summer evenings are lazy and long.

Although "Harborview Perch" is new to VRBO the hosts are not. We recently sold a property in Cundy's Harbor that we rented through VRBO for the past 18 years. We earned the Premier Host badge for this property and are confident that we will earn it here in the future as well.

Great place. Great location.
We were there for our daughter's wedding down the road. The house was perfect for our group -- our other daughter and son-in-law along with their 18-month-old child, a brother, and us. Spacious, had everything we needed, great views. Melissa was responsive and gracious.

Wonderful stay close to the harbour
My family had a wonderful stay at Melissa and Chris’ Boothbay Harbour Vrbo. The main floor bedroom had the perfect little dark closet with a rocking chair for our infants pack n play. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. We stayed with 4 adults and 2 children and it never felt over crowded. It was about a 2 minute drive or 20 minute walk from the Harbour. Would definitely stay here if we ever visit the area again.

Relaxing and convenient location
The house was adorable; kids loved the interesting upstairs and adults enjoyed the downstairs master. Kitchen is large and comfortable to cook in and the hot tub was a blessing after day hiking.

Great location to check out Boothbay Harbor
We enjoyed our stay at Harborview Perch and its proximity to town. The house was generally clean, although there were a few areas that needed maintenance. The AC system worked great. It was an unusually hot stretch for September. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans, but bring your own condiments. The beds have pillow-toppers on the mattresses. The king-sized bed needs more support, in our opinion. The linens and towels were high quality, and there were plenty of them.

Boothbay stay
This home had all of the amenities that we needed for a relaxing, enjoyable week. Close to town, quiet, gracious hosts, beautiful views. There was nothing that we needed -the kitchen was well stocked for cooking, the beds comfortable, I can't say enough positive about our experience.
