Firehouse Cottage

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Firehouse Cottage is just over a mile from the shops, eateries, and marinas in downtown Boothbay Harbor. This historical home is a converted fire station with 1,572 square feet of living space and loads of classic New England charm. Sip fresh coffee beneath the pergola in the mornings. Recline on the outdoor living room set, or kick back in an Adirondack chair. This private, tree-lined space also features a gas grill and a dining table. An outdoor shower is handy for rinsing off after days of exploring by the sea. From whale watching to art tours, Boothbay Harbor is the perfect spot for a fun-filled vacation. Arrive at the Maine State Aquarium, about a mile and a half away, or explore the beauty of the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in just over three miles. Picturesque Pine Tree Preserve is a beloved spot for hiking and pondside picnics in less than two and a half miles.

High ceilings and exposed beams bring a regal air to the great room, with plenty of comfy seating. Select a book from the shelves and snuggle up by the gas fireplace, or find your favorite shows on the 40" TV. An open-concept living room framed with warm wood floors and ceilings is an inviting place to share snacks and drinks before dinner. The chefs in your group will adore the sunny country-style kitchen. Butcher block countertops and a gas range make meal preparation simple.

The primary bedroom is a serene sanctuary with a 32" TV.

Amenities include complimentary WiFi and a washer/dryer.

Wonderful house, good location, not impressed by the landlord company
The house is just beautiful and was very clean, very comfortable, we loved it. The shower stall is very small. The location is nice but not really walkable to anywhere. Communication with Vacasa, however, is not great. They reply much better before you book and maybe the first day and then - not anymore... There were some issues and they sent only auto replies and no real answers. Not really issues with the house, the house is rather perfect.

Great amenities, perfect Boothbay spot.
This house was the perfect walkable distance from our family in the area. Loved it! Charming decor, well stocked kitchen, lovely patio and outdoor shower, great spaces for dining in & visiting. Kids loved the hanging chair & hammock.

Perfect home
Everything about the home and the location was amazing. Good central location for a day trips. Only complaint is the keypad did not work and it took us about 30 minutes to get into the house. Other than that everything was wonderful.
