Named after the three shipwrecks whose watery resting places lie just outside the front door of this charming waterfront apartment, Three Schooners offers a peaceful haven from bustling downtown Boothbay Harbor, a five-minute stroll away.
This ground-level, one-bedroom apartment (with queen-size bed) has an inviting sitting room with a twin bed sleeper sofa and TV with premium cable. The large, bright eat-in kitchen comes equipped with full-size refrigerator/freezer, electric stove, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee-maker, everything you need for cooking (including the lobster pot), and table service for six. The serene bedroom is furnished with a richly appointed queen-size bed, large chest of drawers, and full-size closet. The bathroom includes a spacious shower with bench and luxurious linens including oversized bath sheets.
Whether enjoying an early morning cup of coffee or a spectacular sunset glass of wine, the large backyard beckons with several seating areas (including a picnic table and an old-fashioned double swing) to take in the various tidal personalities of the always-changing historic Mill Cove. Whether it is the newest generation of ducklings paddling and playing behind their watchful mother, a blue heron fishing at low tide, or a party of gulls sparring on the skeletal ship remains, the cove never disappoints. Beyond the lush flower and vegetable garden (from which you are welcome to help yourself to whatever is ready to harvest), guests can head down the ramp to the floating dock at high tide and take a refreshing swim or paddle the two Pongo kayaks out for a spin (life jackets provided) over to the main Harbor to the east or along the quiet shoreline to the west (local guide available).
Other amenities include wireless high speed internet, access to washer and dryer, barbeque grill and picnic table, cooler and ice packs for day trips, and off-street parking behind house. Owner lives on premises in main house.
Three Schooners is the ideal place to head home to at the end of every “perfect day” exploring Boothbay Harbor and points beyond.
From May 31 until June 21, and from August 30 until October 13, this property has a 4-day minimum stay at a reduced rate. From June 22 through Augusts 29, It has a Saturday until Saturday minimum 7 night stay with check-out time of 10:00 on Saturday and check-in time of 4:00.

    We loved Marion's place so much last year that we didn't even think of going somewhere else this year. Once again it was a perfect place for the two of us. It's a cute apartment with everything we need. We love the view over her tidal cove, we love her fresh produce and friendliness, we love the peace and the beauty, we love being able to fix our own food when we don't eat out, we love the tour boat rides we take (including the surprise presence of humpback whales on a sunset cruise), and we love the Coastal Botanical Gardens. In short, we had a great time and hope you will also.

    Convenient to town and right on the water. Comfortable bed and quietude. The owner was great and we were able to use her dock for our sea kayaks. Perfect size for two people.

    Marion's place was superb… We sat out in the backyard on our two special chairs every morning with a cup of coffee to just enjoy the view… The place was clean safe and simply lovely… with all the VRBO's we've stayed at… In the United States and all over the world hers is by far theBEST equipped place we've ever stayed at!!! Even Kayaks, umbrellas, beach chairs… Anything you need it's there… And it's in a great location on the water and close to town. Boothbay we found very cool and very salty… Marion has a book of recommendations and they are all great!! if you're thinking about renting this place don't hesitate book it today… You will not be disappointed... loved our stay in Boothbay

    Very well kept apartment on basement level of a beautiful house that is right on the water. Our host, Marion, thoughtfully had fresh blueberry muffins, fresh cut flowers, and a bottle of wine waiting for us when we checked in. Easy walk to town (Boothbay Harbor).

    Would have given it six stars if we could. Couldn' t have been better. Very nice apartment with a beautiful view over a tidal cove. Marion is a lovely, thoughtful hostess - and a very interesting person - who provides a well-stocked kitchen and gives you a welcome bouquet of flowers from her pretty and well-maintained garden, plus the right to pick whatever vegetables are in season. She has a binder with lots of information on restaurants and activities as well as numerous flyers. We loved 1) the Coastal Botanical Gardens, the ferry trip to Monhegan Island, a sailing trip on the Bay Lady, and the boat tour of the Kennebec. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

    Sometimes you pick a vacation spot and love it. Then go home and think well, not so sure. Not so with the Three Schooners. It does not disappoint thanks to Marion a super hostess. The location is perfect! Easy access to multiple day trips. 5 minutes from the Botanical Gardens. don't miss looking for the Trolls! and the blueberry pie at Moody's. Too many great things to do! Cabbage Island clambake a must! Shoot... I want to go right back! Thanks, Marion

    Marion’s place is the perfect place to spend a relaxing vacation. We did a lot of exploring locally. Went to a few great restaurants and beaches. The best part was just being at the apartment. Sitting on the dock tanning, using the 2 kayaks provided to paddle around the cove or sitting in the yard enjoying the shade and the lovely breeze. Marion treats you like a friend. She makes sure you have everything you need. We mentioned we couldn’t find Maine blueberries and the next day she brought us some. If you’re planning a trip to Boothbay, you can’t go wrong with Three Schooners.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay in this perfect location in Boothbay Harbor. The beautiful apartment had everything we needed to feel right at home. Marion, our host, was gracious and full of recommendations for not only Boothbay Harbor, but also for other spots in Maine. The backyard leads right up to Mill’s Cove, which provided beautiful scenery as well as a place to kayak. Marion’s garden was also available to us to use- such a nice touch. The apartment was less than a 10 minute walk to the harbor where there were so many wonderful restaurants and shops. We can’t wait to return to this spot sometime soon. Thank you, Marion for being such a wonderful host!

    This property is within walking distance of the village of Boothbay Harbor. Beautiful waterfront outdoor space is welcoming and a relaxing spot to unwind with a good book. The raised bed garden was beautiful to look at and to sample from! The availability of kayaks was a plus and paddling the cove was a peaceful start to the days spent there. The apartment was clean and comfortable; the host thought of everything. The cut flowers and basket of goodies was a lovely touch and very welcoming. Out host was onsite and was a joy to chat with and provide recommendations for food and leisure activities in the area. A great experience that we hope to repeat in the future.
