Are you looking for a unique experience If so, you have found it at the Linekin Bay Chapel. The Chapel was converted to a 2 bedroom home and has the original stained glass windows and bell tower. It boasts a large open living room with the original hardwood floors and a sun room.

Relax on the back deck with a drink and barbecue or go for a hike on nearby Linekin Preserve which offers over 100 acres of hiking trails including scenic ocean frontage. Also for hiking, the Boothbay Region Land Trust (BRLT) offers over 30 miles of coastal and woodland trails which are open year round and are free to the public. A short walk takes you to bold open ocean frontage on King Phillips Trail where there are spectacular sunrises. Less than a 5 minute drive takes you to Ocean Point where you can watch a breathtaking sunset (don't forget your camera).

Downtown Boothbay Harbor is 4.5 miles away and offers numerous shops, galleries, restaurants and great night life. Ocean cruises are available here for lobster/clam bakes, as well as whale and seal watching excursions. The Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens (the largest in New England) is less than 10 minutes from the chapel and offers over 250 acres of waterfront and woodland trails; it also includes sensory gardens, impressive waterfalls, stonework, and a great Cafe.

The Chapel has a large wrap-around deck with patio furniture and a gas grill. There is also a large sun porch which is a great place for morning coffee. It has a well stocked kitchen with some of the original wood cabinets. There is a dishwasher for your convenience. There is air conditioning as well as a washer and dryer.

There is also a public boat ramp nearby. There is also a nearby lake so feel free to use our canoe and life jackets as long as you have a way to transport the canoe.


The Chapel, also known as 'the Pink and Purple Church', was built in 1911 and was a Methodist summer chapel. It was later converted to a private residence and an art gallery and is known for the whimsical color scheme.

    We stay at the Pink and Purple Chapel every summer and we wouldn’t have it any other way. The property is not only beautiful but equipped with everything you could possibly need to ensure a wonderful experience. The hosts are exceptionally generous, accessible, and accommodating. We go every year, so that really says it all!

    If you have the chance to book this property, do it! So beautiful-the owners have put a lot of work and thought into the details. The house is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. A fully equipped kitchen allowed us to make many meals in-house. The property is perfectly situated between Boston and Acadia and made a perfect landing spot for our many adventures in and around the area. Maine is an absolutely gorgeous state and this charming rental helped this vacation land at the top of our list as an all time favorite trip. Great communication from our hosts. Comfortable, clean and did I mention absolutely beautiful? What could be better than waking up to the sun coming in through stained glass windows?If our travels ever take us back to Maine, we would absolutely book here again. Ten stars!

    This is such a beautiful place to stay and the Boothbay area is truly lovely. The pink and purple church is a special place to make such wonderful memories. We enjoyed every minute and have visited the last several years. It’s our most favorite place to stay!

    The chapel was absolutely perfect for our family (kids ages 3-5). It was very clean, tons of room, fully stocked and a great location. A unique stay for the kids and the hosts were very responsive and friendly. 10/10 recommend.

    We stayed at the Linekin Chapel in the fall of 2022. We couldn’t wait to come back! This time we stayed for two glorious weeks and the experience was just as perfect as the last time. The chapel is beautiful and so well maintained. It’s a perfect size for us and our two adult daughters. Centrally located, with so much to do in the area. We had deer that appeared several evenings too. Everything we could have needed was provided, such as towels, extra bedsheets, a big kitchen, washer/dryer, lots of games too! Just go up the road to Hannaford to supply the kitchen with everything you need to make homemade meals. We can’t wait to return!

    The chaple was FANTASTIC!!! Very clean and well set up for families to be there. It was in a great local. We were able to go to the coast each night to look for sea glass and watch the sunset. We will definately return for another vacation.

    This is a very comfortable, quirky, beautiful, very well stocked home. We loved the way the sunlight breaks through the stained glass windows and its mellowness. Ocean Point near fails to please and staying at the Chapel was a wonderful (wonder filled?!) bonus.
