Great for groups! Walking distance to Downtown Boothbay Harbor
Located at the entrance of Boothbay Harbor, this house has been completely updated. Featuring beautiful hardwood floors and attractive decor throughout, The Red House is a perfect place from which to explore the harbor. An old fashioned front porch welcomes you while the private back deck with gas grill and dining area is a great place to enjoy some privacy.
Inside you will find a gourmet kitchen, welcoming dining room, spacious living room, and a completely renovated full bath, and upstairs are 4 beautifully decorated bedrooms and another updated full bath. A new larger hot water heater was added to accommodate 8 guests.
Conveniently situated across the street from the highly acclaimed Thistle Inn Restaurant and just a 7-minute walk to all the charming shops, art galleries, restaurants, and boat tours that make this pretty little harbor so special.
Guests have access to the whole house. The coffee maker is a hard filter drip coffee maker.
It`s a quick walk to town and also to some yummy restaurants. The house is on a busy road but people love sitting on the front porch watching all the action.
The backyard has a deck with tables and chairs for a more private space.

This was a totally easy and perfect experience! The property was extremely clean, comfortable and very well furnished. The management was very receptive and immediately responsive to the couple minor needs we had. The kitchen is very well equipped, beds and linens were just great.
We we were met by management upon check in, nice touch with a welcome!
I could go on extensively about the quality of this property and the management! Certainly will be returning to rent through this management/property!
The house was the perfect size for our crew and very clean. The kitchen was the most well-stocked that I’ve come across!! It was within walking distance of downtown and close to other sights!!! The only negatives was a broken hairdryer and not being able to make the TV work. I would highly recommend The Red House!
The house was great. Plenty of space, comfortable rooms, clean and well stocked. The pictures don't do it justice. We loved the location. You can walk to the harbor and to restaurants and stores. There was plenty of activities nearby to do with the kids. Everyone agreed two thumbs up.
There were 5 adults and one child staying there. Everything you can imagine needing was provided. The house was clean and the beds, comfortable. It was just a short walk to shops, restaurants and attractions. I would book this house again.
Very comfortable house for family of 5 adults. Very noisey street with constant oneway traffic in front off the porch. Great for walking around Boothbay Harbor but not so great for relaxing on porch. Disappointed with the cleaning upon arrival. the porch appeared to have never been swept so we took care of it, but really not impressed by this. We realize that this may be due to the lack of help this summer so not a big issue for us. Bottom line, nice rental on a busy street.
The location in the house were absolutely amazing the only thing I would say is pack a nightlight late because it gets super dark at night which is great unless you need to pee!!!

Hi Kim, Thank you for the review. I will look into adding a night light.
Thank you,

The house was very clean, well equipped and conveniently located. Bed was very comfortable and the linens were high quality! Wendy was easy to communicate with and very responsive. You can’t go wrong staying here!
Great house - we were thrilled that the kitchen is much larger than we thought it would be based on the pictures. Easy for 4 or 5 people to be in the kitchen at a time. We parked our cars (4 of them) in the driveway and never used them all weekend. Easy walk to town. The house was even decorated with a Christmas tree and lights on the porch !! Very homey and comfortable. And the people from the rental office were especially friendly and helpful.
Close to town. Able to walk to everything Boothbay had to offer.

Convenient and immaculate
Remodeled interior is great. Easy/short walk to downtown. Management very helpful. Problem with TV in living room but two TVs in other rooms. I am sure the TV problem in the living room is fixed now. Highly recommend.

Red House in town
We just had a wonderful stay at this house. It was recently renovated inside with very modern high end finishes in the bathrooms and kitchen. The kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of new pots and pans, and everything we needed for the family meals we cooked during our stay.
It is in a great location, with ample parking for our family's three cars, the house was just a short walk to downtown Boothbay Harbor. There's plenty to do in town, plenty of great restaurants to choose from, and a grocery store nearby.
