Such an easy check in process and had no issues with the house. We didn't spend much time hanging around the house, as our plans took us away from the house daily’s, but we should have, as there were lots of areas to relax.

3 days in old orchard beach

What a beautiful beach home! The location was quiet and a 5 minute walk to the beach, close to restaurants and only a 20 minute drive into Portland. We enjoyed the outside deck and the enclosed front porch. We loved the true “beachy” feel of the house and did not want our stay to end!

Beach view weekend stay

Beautiful home with views of the beach that is just steps away. The house came fully loaded for all of our needs. Our family spent most of our weekend hanging outside on the deck. Highly recommend.

Quirky old house, a/c worked well, very close to beach

I was nervous when the weather report came thru to expect 90s that the window units wouldn't be able to handle keeping my dad comfortable, but it was great and we didn't blow a fuse! It's a quirky old house but it's the third house from the beach. Location couldn't have been better for the price. The roses were in bloom in June and it was a dreamy, aromatic walk to the beach. Beach did have a fair amount of seaweed :/ Host was very responsive. No significant issues.
