Quaint Cottage, great stay
We had a great time on our recent stay here. short walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood. This home was fully stocked with all the amenities and truly felt like our home away from home. Check in/out was seamless and there was great communication the the host. If we ever plan to travel to the area again, we would definately stay here once more.

Wonderful Family Beach Vacation
We had a great stay at this cottage. Location is good and we enjoyed walking to the beach and nearby restaurants and stores. We made the trip back and forth to the beach several times a day. It is nice because it’s far enough away from the pier and amusement rides, so it is quiet and peaceful at night. The backyard area was great for grilling and enjoying the outdoors. Two things I would note about this rental- We had a very hot week and there is only one ductless AC unit located in the living room, so the bedrooms were not very cool. We brought several fans, so we made it work. I would give this rental 5 stars if there was AC throughout the house, but I feel the listing should reflect there is only one unit. Also, there is very minimal pots and pans for cooking. We had to use a pan and then wash it to cook something else. Overall, we had an amazing time and this house helped our family create lasting OOB memories!! I would recommend this rental!

Good location, house was clean, a few things in house needed small repairs(didn’t impede our stay). There was not a lot of kitchenware, which is fine but wish we knew ahead of time so we could have packed it with us. Overall great time.

A Taste of New England
We were a family of 5 adults and loved the accommodations! Coming from the south, it was truly the New England charm we were hoping to find. The cottage is very comfortable with room for everyone one to spread, both inside and out. Kitchen is well stocked for any cooking needs.

Great House Near the Beach
Nice little house with everything we needed. Slight hiccup after checking in, but quickly rectified upon speaking with the managers! For our January stay, we definitely appreciated the efficient heat and ready throw blankets available in the living areas to cozy up under! Would definitely recommend this house for a family or small group.

Charming Cottage in Old Orchard Beach
The cottage was well appointed with decor in soothing neutral tones making it feel spacious and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen—extra points given for having a full set of implements for enjoying delicious whole lobsters from Pinetree Seafood. The cottage is a short walk to a great, long sandy beach—perfect for long Beach walks and —when the waves are high—surfing. And OOB is perfectly situated for exploring other areas: Portland, Freeport, Scarborough, Cape Elizabeth etc. But the cottage always welcomed us when we returned from exploring, where we lit candles and prepared delicious dinners. The small cozy side yard was perfect for grilling or sipping wine in the evenings. We were impressed that the owners Ryan and Nicole seemed environmentally conscious with soaps, paper products etc being organic and even the candles were battery operated so no smoke permeated but made the house feel cozier. And they were very responsive to any of our needs or questions which helped make our stay relaxing and trouble free. We definitely felt at home. Thank you Ryan and Nicole for a lovely stay.

Relaxing vacation!
Overall the stay was great! Enough room to spread out and the cottage was cute! About a 10 min walk to the beach. I would suggest maybe trimming the back yard a bit, we couldn’t use it cause it was really buggy. Also it was tad warm, the air is only in the living room so it didn’t really cool down the other rooms or the downstairs. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay!

Great Gem
We loved our stay. Our kids 6 and 3, they were safe playing in the back yard and even front area. We walked to the beach every day, sometimes three times a day. Quick 10 minute walk even with kids walking/riding their scooters. There were a few quirks as most places have. It’s hard to be perfect. There were some dust bunnies causing an allergic reaction with my step-mom. Overall we’re glad this was our home base for the week while we explored part Maine.

House was Adorable
The house is in a very quiet neighborhood just a bit away from the Pier. Take only about 2 minutes to get to everything. House had almost everything you need for a pleasant stay. We like the little area with the fire pit. Private. I would recommend. Communication with the host was fine.

Lovely cottage in great location
This was such a quaint and cozy cottage for our stay in Maine. We were in the area for a medical conference in Portland and this location was perfect. We walked the beach a couple of days and enjoyed neighboring beaches-Higgin’s and Beddefors Pools. The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and the outdoor space was cute, although small. We enjoyed our stay even though the weather was variable! Thank you to our hosts for an easy check in and check out!

Perfect spot for our girls week! We absolutely loved this place. It was in a very quiet area with a 10 minute walk to the beach. We heard the ocean most nights when we sat outside. There is a binder with places to go and things to do. And, so many options in the area! Will definitely stay here next time we are in Maine.

Nice Clean House
Very nice little cottage in a quiet part of OOB. Cleanliness was excellent. Very nicely decorated. Cable TV but no streaming services. The combined kitchen/dining room is too small for a house that can accommodate up to 10 guests. The living room was a really nice place to hang out. There is a side yard, but it's not practical to have meals there since it's far from the kitchen. It is better suited to having a drink. A gas grill is provided but don't expect much, it's really cheap - I wouldn't even know where to buy something so low-end. The biggest problem we had was with the bedroom downstairs. The metal frame of the bunk twin beds squeaks and creaks so much at the slightest movement that it's completely unusable. I highly recommend that this bed be replaced ASAP by a double bed frame. The ceiling is too low for a bunk bed. The house should be made to accommodate 8 people total instead of 10. Despite these criticisms, I would stay there again if the bed was replaced and only with a party size of 8 or less.

Nous avons beaucoup aimé la maison, surtout le patio extérieur ….le seul point négatif était la propreté: fan de plafond plein de poussière, dessous de lit, cadres sur les murs et le frigidaire plein de marques de doigts….et il faudrait plus de chaises à l’extérieur.

Belle semaine près de la plage
Maison très accueillante, meublée avec goût, avec beaucoup de commodités: laveuse, sécheuse et lave-vaisselle. Les deux salles de bain complètes, très pratique pour notre groupe de huit. La maison offre beaucoup d'espace pour chacun. Nous pouvons nous rendre à la plage à pied en 15-20 minutes (selon notre âge!!!). Seul petit commentaire moins positif: nous aurions apprécié une marmite/faitout de taille intermédiaire (pour cuire des pâtes, par exemple). Et quelques petits trucs comme verres à vin, râpe à fromage, linge à vaisselle. Espace extérieur agréable dans la cour et voisinage tranquille. Ce fut formidable et je recommande fortement cette propriété pour les amoureux du Maine!
