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.

Great location. My first time using Vrbo and it and the location and host exceeded expectations to the max! Thank you for the clean, safe, beautiful, and well kept spot for my best friend and I and four legged friends to spend my birthday weekend!
Great location - very short walk to the beach, plenty of natural light - and beautiful artwork and houseplants decorate the space. Perfect for our short Thanksgiving “getaway” - had everything we needed - would definitely stay here again!
We really enjoyed staying at Jan's place! She was a great host, with a place that we enjoyed being at. It wasn't far from the beach either! We'd definitely stay there again!
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.
Jan was wonderful to deal with. We were here for a memorial service for my mom who passed last year and this was my first time staying outside of my mothers home. This house was perfect. Thank you!!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location is great, off the main strip so it is quiet but also 3 minute walk to the beach and 10 to the main intersection. Would really recommend!
We loved this house! It had everything we could have needed, great location, clean, and was perfect for our needs. So close to everything yet a quiet very pleasant neighborhood. Would for sure stay here again.
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!

Overall this property is very nice. Convenient to restaurants and stores. Quick 5 minute walk to the beach. This property has everything you need to stay in or venture out.
We loved it here. It's very close to the ocean a short walk as well as short walk to the strip. Very quiet neighborhood and great 2 person balcony!! Had everything we needed and more!!
As of right now without full access to my account my only issues with my stay remains Vrbo app’s issues and lack of customer service available. The host and the stay itself could not have been more lovely! Highly recommended locale!
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.

About the host

My name is Jan. I own and live in the house. I am working in North Carolina currently so I have opened my house to share as a rental. I ask all that come to stay to take care of the house as it has my personal things in it.
Why they chose this property
I purchased this property as my retirement home. It has a cottage in the backyard.
What makes this property unique
The house is unique because it is not set up as a rental. It has high-quality mattresses, appliances, and decorations.
