Cute House -2 Blocks from Beach

Small clean and quiet 2-bedroom 2-bath house on a hill within walking distance to the beach. 2 blocks to beach. There is a small porch overlooking the street, a large TV w/ streaming, comfortable beds, grill, beach chairs, linens, towels, and new appliances. All within a half mile of the pier.
Note: The house has stairs leading up to the main living area. Humans and dogs have to be able to navigate stairs. The master bedroom is downstairs. The house is small, but the upstairs is light and sunny. It was built in the 1940s, so it's not brand new. It has hardwood floors, and it is built into a hill. There is a side yard up the hill. Easy parking for 2 cars.
Definitely not a party house, as the neighborhood is quiet.

Perfect weekend in fall

The place is cozy, well decorated and makes you feel right at home. On a very calm street, it's a 5 minutes walk to the beach and to the superb memorial park, the perfect place for our energic Frenchie. We totally recommend this place!

Great Place to Stay at Old Orchard Beach- close to everything!

We stayed here for a long weekend in June and just loved it! There is a large full kitchen with 2 large bedrooms and plenty of storage space, and having 2 bathrooms was awesome. It's just a short walk to the beach and all the attractions and restaurants, yet quiet and away from all the chaos. Jan is the best, and quick to answer any questions that come up. We are definitely coming back!

Nice cottage, a bit on the funky side but pleasant. 2 blocks from the beach. Could definitely use a new couch, fix the front door, and better bedside lighting. Note that the damage deposit was 1500 which was actually charged to my credit card before we arrived and I didn’t get the money back for more than 2 weeks later. A nice float for someone but I had to cover it because of my cards billing cycle. VRBO says this is their policy. Seems wrong to me. Anyway, a nice place.

Excellent OOB Getaway...

Our family had a very delightful stay on this property. Its' convenient location on a quiet street made access to and from the beach very reasonable by foot. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was quite well equipped for cooking (one or two larger-sized pots would have made it even better). Access to a BBQ at the back was a nice touch, as was the mini-patio on the 2nd floor where we enjoyed coffee in the morning. All in all, we were very pleased with Jan's rental property and would definitely consider staying there again!

Quiet, yet close to everything!

This was our first stay in Old Orchard Beach and our first time renting a house from the internet sight unseen. The cottage is an older home tucked in a hill, with lots of charm. We loved having the small balcony, the comfy living room, and two bathrooms! We walked everywhere! We are already talking about next time!

Fabulous Location

The house was exactly as listed, perfect for 5 adults. We could easily walk anywhere- beaches, reataurants, etc. Could use some darkening curtains as a few outside lights shine right into a couple windows at night but otherwise this house was great. Had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. My father is 73 and the stairs were no Issue for him, just mentioning this as others had brought it up. Thanks for letting us use your home!

For a smaller house, it met all our needs. We stayed busy every day sightseeing and came back to sleep. Beds were comfortable and we rested well. The upstairs bathroom was small but it took care of our needs. The area was very quaint and close to the beach which was beautiful in the early morning and before sunset. We had a pleasant stay.

This is a quaint, cost-effective 2 BR property that is walking distance to the beach, decent food options and conveniently located to explore the surrounding area including Portland up to Boothbay Harbor, or down to Kennebunkport. If you have issues w/ stairs, this might not be the place for you (we were fine). The owner was very nice and helpful.
