We enjoyed our stay in this quiet neighborhood. The 3 bedrooms were perfect for our teens to have their own space. Although the bedrooms did not have AC, they did have fans which were enough to keep us comfortable at night. The screened in porches provided a nice way to ease into the morning while others slept in. We would stay here again!

Great place!

Such a nice property! Clean, well kept and close to several stores/restaurants/beaches. The fully fenced in backyard was amazing to have with young kids.

Hi Kerry, thanks for the review. I see you left a 3 star review. What improvements could I make that would have earned me 5 stars from you. I’m always looking to improve to give guests the best experience and I’m sorry you didn’t have a 5 star experience. Your feedback is very important to us. Thank you, Pete

Very cute place

What a wonderful little cottage. The neighborhood is a mix of houses and it’s 5 minutes away from the beach. Peter was so quick to respond to me as well. What a wonderful host.

Geat Vacation in Old Orchard Beach

We had a great time in OOB. The house is just awesome and very confortable for all six of us. Looks recently renovated and well maintained. Great and quiet location, not far from the beautiful beaches, and far enough from the city center and its crowd. Great communications with Pete the owner. No concerns and I highly recommend!

Quiet and cozy

Location is perfect! The street was quiet, and we were so close to everything we wanted to do! The owner was super sweet, and the cottage was very clean and well supplied. The beds were comfortable and there was enough room for all seven of us, and plenty of pillows, blankets, and towels. The listing says there are no smoke detectors listed, but there are smoke detectors :) and a Keurig coffee maker. This was just like being home, and we would happily stay here again.

Weekend away in July

The property itself was nice and in a nice location. There was no communication from the host. No welcome letter, no access to wifi, and I was unable to get in touch with the host thru email or message. I will most likely book elsewhere in the future.

Hi Carine, I’m sorry you feel neglected. I sent a message thanking you for booking with us and to enjoy your stay. I thought if was odd you didn’t respond as every other guest has. The WiFi log in is sent to all guests by Vrbo. No one has ever said otherwise or notified me they had a problem. I did not receive any correspondence from you in any way through Vrbo or I would have immediately responded as I do with every guest as you can read with every review. Also my cleaner was unable to remove the blood stains from the blanket, sheets and mattress cover. I’ll just count that as a loss. I would not rent to you again.

Séjour agréable

Un séjour agréable! L'endroit est bien situé, parfait pour se rendre à la plage à velo ( 1 miles environ par temple street). Le propriétaire répond rapidement en cas de problème. Le quartier est calme et agréable. Nous n'avons pas trouvé de sèchoir ou de spa. La propreté est vraiment le point à améliorer.
