A Sunny, One Bedroom Cottage OOB Escape!

Welcome to our inviting cottage in the picturseque town of Old Orchard Beach, Maine.

You can hear the soothing sounds of the ocean from your windows and the whisper of the train in the distance. A short walk to the seven mile long stretch of wide, sandy beach and with the pier and main strip right around the corner. The place is just far enough from the action to not disturb, but close enough to easily walk to.

This charming abode offers a comfortable and cool atmosphere, perfect for those seeking a tranquil and rejuvenating stay. Living room offers lots of sunshine, a full size pull out sleeper sofa and smart TV to stream your Netflix/Prime/Hulu accounts,. The kitchenette is well stocked with all essentials you'll need for eating in, take out, or grilling outdoors. The table area for enjoying meals together comfortably seats 4. Upstairs offers queen size bed and plenty of closet space for your belongings.

There is an air conditioning on both floors for those really hot Maine summer days and outside sitting area with gas grill as well.

Off-street parking for 1 car, but plenty of street parking.

A Quiet Corner of Old Orchard Beach
This is a clean, well-maintained rental in a residential neighborhood, with a dedicated parking spot and fenced backyard area. There were ring-style cameras at the front and back entrances and secure locks on the doors The rental is located in a residential area, less than a 10 minute walk downhill to the beach. There is easy and reasonably-priced parking in the downtown area if you choose to drive, and there is also a trolley with a nearby stop. When we invariably locked ourselves out Chris was quick to respond via the Vrbo app. He touched base with us soon after booking, and several times before, during, and after our stay. All of the interactions were very friendly. Chris went out of his way to share some information about places for our family to ride bicycles (bring yours if you can, we definitely enjoyed having them!) and where to safely store them. The unit was well-cooled with air conditioning units both upstairs and down. As other reviewers have mentioned, the stairs to the bedroom are steep and slippery - be sure to not take the stairs in socks! If you’re traveling in a group, be aware there is no door to the bedroom area upstairs. This was a pet-friendly rental but it is preferred that pets stay off furniture/beds - be sure to bring your crate for when you head out and a sheet or blanket to keep things fur-free! Our family of two adults, a first-grader, and a small dog enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent from Chris and Sue again.

Lovely place to visit
This was my first trip to Maine, and we stayed in Old Orchard beach. Our lodging was close to the beach, amusement park, restaurants, arcade and shopping. We even enjoyed a drive-in movie! Food was excellent and the people were friendly. Definitely a place I'd visit again.

Enjoy and Relax!
When you are done with the hustle and bustle of the beach and pier, it’s nice to go ‘home’ to a quiet neighborhood. Our dogs enjoyed the neighborhood walks and the fenced in yard. We appreciated the spacious living area, kitchen and the use of the grill. Communication with the owner was always friendly, professional and timely. We’ll worth the money !

Pleasant time
House was pleasant and process was easy. 3 critiques. One, linens are not included and you need to bring your own. That was made clear before visit but required extra packing. Two, the TV required more technical skill than we had to keep going consistently. Three, bedroom is up fairly steep steps and requires some dexterity to move around. This is difficult for guests of “a certain age” to navigate safely. We slept on the sofa couch to be safe. I think property is better suited for guests who are younger. Main floor was roomy and very well appointed. Whoever decorated has a nice eye. It was lovely. Owner was very responsive. Great property for the right guests.

Responsive Owner
We were only able to stay at this property for one night due to plumbing issues. The owner was extremely responsive -- checked out the issue right away and offered us an alternate property to use for the duration of our stay. Wasn't at this original property long enough to truly offer an opinion - but can attest that the owner is great to work with and his other property worked out very well for us.

Great cozy place very close to everything at OOB.
My son and I rented this house while at OOB visiting family. Super clean and quaint. Perfect for just the two of us. Close to everything, but far enough not to hear the train. The ac was a plus! Also, there is a great coffee shop right around the corner that we could walk to every morning.

great access to sun and fun
I stayed here with my two kids for a week. They were a bit too little for the walk to the beach -- next year it'll be a perfect, short bike ride. But the owner gave me parking tips that totally helped out. And my kids loved the easy access to the water parks, the amusement park and other activities. We actually ran out of time! The owner's communication was prompt, thorough, and courteous (sometimes even humorous!)
