About this house rental
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!

We stayed in a lovely church that is no longer a church but a interesting and comforting "home." for those who are visiting Booth Bay Harbor in Maine. Our hosts were generous with extra towels, linens and soaps.
