About this property

Roomy three bedroom house. Downstairs master bedroom (queen bed). Upstairs bedroom (queen), bedroom (2 twins). Large living room, formal dining room, two full baths, den, kitchen, laundry, shed. We offer two HDTV's with free high speed wireless internet, a landline phone, and a library and board games. Enjoy a large, mowed back yard, shore privileges, and a view of sunsets over Harpswell Sound. Patio with gas grill and seating available in the back yard. This is an old house, with plenty of charm, but floors are not completely level in spots and the carpeted stairs to the upstairs are somewhat steep.

We are located south of Brunswick approximately 11 miles from Cooks Corner, which makes for easy day trips up and down the rt 1 corridor. Several local grocery stores and shopping are nearby. Local beaches, restaurants, ice cream and gift shops are a quick drive from the house. There are plenty of walking trails nearby as well.

Love at first sight. Came to visit a friend in Brunswick and fell in love with everything! After several excursions around the Maine coast, returned to a very comfortable home away from home. Mallory was very gracious and accommodating.

Such a lovely home

We are repeat vacationers at this lovely Orrs Island property. It’s quiet and peaceful with a beautiful large yard which makes it very private. It’s a quaint old maine home like those of my childhood but it has been updated & furnished for the comforts of a larger group. The location is perfect with many favorite haunts nearby. We love the proximity of the ocean and smell of salt air. You can’t go wrong in making this your base for a stay in the state of Maine.

Wonderful vacation!

Orr House is an absolute gem ! It is comfortable, spacious, and well outfitted with everything you might possibly need. The property is serene and rolls along to the water. Sunsets are gorgeous right from the backyard. We felt surrounded by nature, and enjoyed watching a turkey family, deer, dicks, and many birds. It was a joy for us to stay in this historic home, and our hosts Mallory and her mother Joan made our week complete!

5 star rental!!!

The property was exactly as described and more. It had lots of spices, condiments, coffee & filters (drip coffeemaker). The large living groom had plenty of sitting areas. It also had a cute reading nook with tons of books and another TV. Be sure to walk down the back at sunset!

Perfect week on Orr's Island

We had the perfect week at this spacious, unique house! Prime location with plenty of room for our family of four to relax, play in the yard, and outfitted with everything we needed. Great showers, comfortable beds, tons of room to spread out, and perfect cool breezes through the windows overnight and every morning. Spotlessly clean, well stocked kitchen supplies, and fans and ACs for the few times the temps felt a little too hot. We hope to come back again next year! Thank you!

Enjoy Maine just as it should be.

A great place to stay and enjoy all that "Down East" Maine has to offer. Great location on Orr Island (close to Portland and Booth Bay Harbor), about half way between Boston and Acadia National Park. Clean, quaint, and with all the amenities you could need, this was the perfect home for us to stay for our Maine getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Mallory R

We purchased this home after years of summering on Orr's Island. The home is very special to the family as it was my grandmother's residence and my parents' home for a number of years. My parents now live nearby and we have chosen to share this lovely spot for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

The location of this property is ideal for day trips in the midcoast area and has all the great charm an island vacation can provide. Cool ocean breezes keep the climate temperate and the salt ocean air is soothing to the soul.

What makes this property unique

On a summer night enjoy the stars easily visible without all the light pollution that you would experience in a city. Catch some fireflies and watch for deer and turkeys parading around in the moonlight.
