Cockroaches beware
First, I would I like to say Vacasa is amazing to work with they helped us out tremendously. Also, always get travel insurance. Now, for the part I honestly wish I didn’t have to write a review about. I was sooo excited when I seen this cabin and I snatched it up as quick as I could. The pictures were beautiful that were showed. But to me that did not depict the inside of the house. We got there I had an uneasy feeling. Was told we could come early because the cleaning crew had gotten there early. I’m honestly not sure if there is even one. Lots of Bugs on ceiling in bathroom, cobwebs in windows that could have easily been dusted by supposed cleaning crew I don’t even want to talk about the mattress pads. As my family was looking around the property at various things. I was inside and boy was I in for a surprise. I seen the neat benches at the table that had a built in storage area and i reached over the table to look at the other side and when I did there was a cockroach not just a cockroach but a jumping one. And if you see 1 of those things there are 100s of them throughout the home. I also am aware that it’s a cabin and there will be bugs but I’m not ok with cockroaches those things spread like wildfire Needless to say we left immediately. If I could give the accuracy of the home and cleanliness a 0 I would. We were thankfully able to get all of our money back. We ended up at a cute little inn in the town. The shops were amazing everyone was so nice.

Cabin House with a view
Great location! Beautiful views! Just understand this is a cabin. Nothing more, nothing less. While the location and views are amazing there are many things that could be updated in the cabin. Outlets are old and not very secure. BBQ is not a full size but a small table top. Microwave has the wrong turntable in it, so it makes clunking noises. Also you will need to make sure no food is left out, we had a mouse visit the counters every night. This is definitely a beautiful spot, really just needs a few upgrades and it would be amazing!

Beautiful cabin right on the water
We had a fantastic stay at the cabin in Boothbay. Fantastic location at the end of a 'peninsula' that was wraparound water views. The cabin is very old, but beautiful and in great shape. Everything that we needed was there for us and we were very comfortable. Due to the age of the cabin (not a lot of insulation/protection from the elements), it was a little dusty and we saw a few small bugs that were easy to relocate back outside. We did have a need to contact someone local, and we did not have any luck. No one contacted us to make sure we got into the property and offer assistance, so we had no connection to someone if we really needed help. We called the Vacasa line that was available on the listing and followed the prompts for assistance with not being able to access the property. We were on hold for over 30 minutes before we hung up when we found the lost key. This was on the last day, but could have been an issue if we had a real need for assistance and did not have any humans to assist us during the stay.

Awesome Location!!!
This was a perfect place for our family to unwind and reconnect! The cabin itself is pushing 100 years old and it oozes with history. We discovered all of this by exploring the cabin and noticing the details about it. We felt as if we had stepped back in time to simpler days while staying here. It was wonderful. We read aloud by the fire at night. We rented kayaks and hiked. We spent most of the rest of our time on the deck, the dock, and on the rocks, or by the fireplace at night. We bought baked goods from the local fire station fundraising sale. We sampled the General Store. We tried to take it all in. The views are amazing! We watched the lobster fishermen check their traps, enjoyed the sunsets and all the wildlife. We saw seals, a bald eagle, herons, and all sorts of other water birds right from the deck. It is a nature lover’s paradise. This cabin is a very special place. It is rustic, however, and you need to expect that going in. Beds are very comfortable, but living room furniture is a futon and some older chairs. It might be nice to update this furniture to some more comfortable seating. We are blessed to have spent some time here, adding to the memories that many have made here before us. Thank you.

Quiet getaway week oasis
This is truly a cabin in the woods. It is a rustic cabin but comfortable and well appointed. You will have everything you need, but it isn't fancy. All of the appliances work, the place is clean and tidy, the beds are comfortable and there seemed to be plenty of hot water. The location is convenient to E Boothbay, and Boothbay, especially if you have a boat. The deck on house was a perfect place to have coffee in the morning, and a glass a wine for the sunset. The wildlife and lobster boats provided plenty of entertainment. The deep water dock was nice perk, and we were visited by friends with all sizes of boats who remarked at the nice feature. I can't wait to go back!

Wonderful stay, too short
We had a wonderful time staying at the Sailor's Cabin. It is a beautiful log cabin, with great charm and very clean!! What a spot, from the deck you can watch great blue herons eat, terns diving for fish, seals chasing schools of fish, and we even got to see the shy harbor porpoises one day. The view is spectacular, watching the lobster boats check their traps and other boats go by and yet it is peaceful and quiet with wonderful breezes. We will definitely be going back to visit. Thank you to the owners for sharing this great vacation spot. Cindy & Mick

Not as advertised
Nothing more than a wooden tent, it was cold and NO heat. Doors and windows don’t lock, had to put electrical tape over open cracks in the floor to keep out bugs, stuffed windows with paper towels to keep wind from rattling windows and keep stir out. Got up freezing and the coffee pot didn’t work. I have never paid so much for a camp site 🙁😡🥵 left after 1st night. NO refund offered for 2nd or 3rd night

Anniversary Get-away
My husband and I rented this beautiful cabin to get away and celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary. This location is very peaceful with beautiful sites and scenery. The cabin was immaculate and ready for us when we showed up. We got to enjoy the fireplace due to the chilly Spring weather. This was the perfect mix of a true cabin with all the amenities of home. I would definitely recommend anybody who's wanting to get away from the craziness of life and just relax!

We stayed a week in this magical cabin in East Boothbay. It is rustic, but had everything we needed and more. Wonderful private location with views of the water, sailboats, schooners and lobster fishermen. Comfy bed, great kitchen and bath, wifi and cable tv for rainy days. Close to everything. Would love to return. Thank you.

Just spent a terrific week at this property with two adults and four kids ages 8 to 12. Loved the rustic cabin feel with big working fireplace, dutch doors, windows looking right onto the water, nice big dining tables both indoors and on front deck, and plenty of seating throughout. Very comfortable queen bed in the master, and no complaints from the kids about the beds in their room. Ample kitchen space, fully functioning and well ventilated. Outside property very nice overall, with ability to walk along entire point of peninsula. At high tide caught mackeral and pollock and crabs (and almost got a lobster!), saw passing seals, and jumped off the dock for cool swims. At low tide explored the slippery rocks (seaweed!) in water shoes. Two minor industrial drawbacks that need to be disclosed but in my opinion are also well factored into the price: across the cove and up river a bit there's a (1) consistent dull humming sound from the Bigelow Science Lab, and (b) mild eyesore in the big blue Washburn & Doughty shipbuilding facility (unfortunately the first/only thing seen through the trees as you approach the property by car). Finally, and coming back to the bigger positives, our host Ken was super helpful driving two hours round-trip on a Friday night to fix a minor plumbing issue (thanks again, Ken!).

Perfect rustic mid- coast Maine retreat!
We did our 30th anniversary here and loved it. The rustic cabin is a nice secluded retreat at the end of a point. We stayed 9 days and found plenty to do on the few day trips that we took. We also spent a lot of time just relaxing on the deck basking in the scenery. The cabin is well-equipped and the master bed is soft and comfortable. Great birdwatching and I did catch a few fish from the dock. A perfect place to just sit back and watch the tide roll in and out. It would be a great base camp for kayaking or ocean fishing if you have a boat. If I have one regret it would've been that I did not bring my own camping hammock. The hammock provided worked okay and would be sufficient if your lightweight, but there were so many other places on the point that I would've loved to strapped up the hammock for a read and a nap.
