Loved the cabin and the old features. Grew up with double dutch doors so loved that . Loved the way the windows worked. Had good weather so ate outside as well as inside. Definitely could use a new mattress for the living room futon couch but the other chairs were comfortable. Came at the right time for wild blackberries, that were all over the property. Friends came to join us by boat so the dock was a plus. Internet worked great- especially when realized the correct password was right on the router. Completely enjoyed our stay.

Private Cabin with Beautiful Views

We traveled down a narrow, mile long rode. At the end was a cabin looking out to the river. As an artist, the views were everything I could’ve hoped for. I took beautiful photographs. My 3 kids (13yo girl and 10yo boy/girl twins) loved exploring out on the rocks at low tide. We did attempt to swim in the water, each taking a turn to jump in. The water was freezing and very salty, so that one jump was all we could handle - but it was a good laugh. Take note, there is no ladder to get out of the water. My husband had to pull our kids out and 2 of them cut their legs on the wood dock. The cabin itself was a true wood cabin but with electricity, plumbing, and wifi. It was clean enough, although there were a few stains on the twin beds’ comforters. My kids opted not to use them. The stand in shower was very small with little space to move. The shower lining should be changed out for new as it was very dirty at the bottom. The kitchen was clean.One unnerving thing was when a whole group of people came onto the property and walked down to the dock where my kids had just been playing. They did not introduce themselves. Then, a woman came and said it was the owner and they were taking the boat out. It would’ve been nice to be notified beforehand or at least had the owner come up to my husband or myself to introduce himself as we were outside. What if our kids were still out at the dock? It frightened me a bit.All in all, we had a good experience. I would recommend staying here.

We were honestly shocked when we arrived. The refrigerator had red sauce splattered all over the front door and the entire side facing the countertop. It was so obvious – how did the cleaning crew or previous guests not see it?We contacted VACASA every single day asking for a cleaning crew to come fix it, but no one ever came. Because of this, we didn’t feel comfortable preparing or eating any meals in the cabin. It completely defeated the purpose of staying at a quiet oceanfront cabin with a nice deck and kitchen where we had planned to cook and relax.
Tomato sauce? How’d it get all the way down here?
Intentionally splattered by previous guests?
How can you eat in the presence of this gross and disgusting sight? Even making coffee (forget about the 1980’s Mr. Coffee maker sadly wasting away nearby the scene of the crime) was a challenge.

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.

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

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
