3 Min Walk to Sand!-2 Bdr-Sleeps 5/Child/Dog/Family-Friendly/Amenities Aplenty!!

Celebrating 20 Years of Happy Renters!!:)

Newly Renovated! Brand New Bathroom, Flooring, Windows, Doors, Lighting, Beds, Doors, Gas Stove, Etc!

Charming 2 Bedroom, One Bath Cottage Unit Affectionately Known as 'The Albatross' with All Linens Provided for Beach, Bath, and Bedroom.

-We are at 28 Seacliff Avenue, just off West Grand,..located on a family/pet oriented street, just steps away from the OOB sand. (We know all of our neighbors, and they are wonderful) The location is just on the ocean side of the train tracks (in case you know the area and don't want to be on the other side of the tracks).

-Cottage unit will sleep 5 comfortably (7 with 2 comfy leather futon fold out living room couches). Cute, accommodating, safe, comfortable & most importantly, clean.

-Here's what we offer with this rental:

-Private Yard complete with Lawn Chairs, Grill, Low Smoke Fire Pit, and Hammock!

-Master Bedroom has Queen Mattress & A/C

-Bedroom #2 has Queen with a bunk twin loft bed & A/C

-2 Leather Fold Out Futons (lays flat into a queen for children if needed)

-Full Kitchen with Fire Extinguisher, Coffee Maker, Toaster, Microwave, Fridge, Gas Stove, Blender, and all dishes, cookware, silverware, and other cooking implements.

-Bathroom and Beach Linens/Towels Provided

-Wifi & LCD TVs in all bedrooms and living room with streaming apps such as Roku TV Channel, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Pluto TV. Many apps can be found to keep up on your local news (certain cities).

-HDMI cable available to plug in laptops in case you have other streaming apps.

-A/C in Living Room, Master Bedroom and Guest Bedroom as well as fans in rooms as well.

-Outdoor 8' fold out table

-Beach Wagon

-Beach Umbrellas

-Beach Chairs

-Cooler

-Lawn Chairs
(A few other extras such as skim boards 'if they don't disappear in the surf', and beach toys)

There are 2 convenience stores one block away, as well as a 24/7 Laundromat.

Close to restaurants, walking distance to Pier (15 min walk)

-We are located about halfway from OOB Pier and Ocean Park in lovely Old Orchard Beach.

-Amtrak train depot is walkable if arriving by train. The train goes directly through the town of OOB and alerts each intersection that it is coming, so if you are very sensitive to train noise, you may want to rent in Saco or in Ocean Park (although the train can be heard there as well, but to a lesser degree).

**Please see our other listing 'The Whaler' (3 bedroom), property # 3774159 if this unit is booked, as the other may be available for your selected dates.

Cozy
One large Bedroom very nice and comfortable for 2, smaller bedroom no windows but door to the yard, Queen bottom single bunk on top ok for 3 people. 2 Faux leather futons in the living room very uncomfortable to relax although we didn’t spend much time indoors. Nice kitchen with plenty of utensils and supplies. Bathroom nice size although shower is a little cramped. Overall a very nice place to stay close to beach with a nice wagon to utilize.

Perfect Location. Great Space.
This is so close to everything in OOB. You can’t beat it. We loved our stay and would definitely book again. Folks with senior pups, there are stairs at both front and back doors, but we were able to make do with her Help Em Up harness. Nice and one level once you are inside.

Conveniently located for a beach holiday
The property is a short walk from the beach, and the laundromat and convenience store are close by. There is good wifi and a TV in each room, as well as air conditioning. The kitchen is well stocked and there are plenty of towels and beach paraphernalia. The cons are that it is beside the train track and the bathroom and plumbing need updating.

Cute beach house two blocks from ocean
Very perfect for a longer-term stay as we bought our house, owner very communicative and helpful. Great beach supplies on hand, comfortable beds, you can’t hear the duplex neighbors.

About the host

Hosted by Shawn Tooley

Host profile image
I run several short term rentals in Southern Maine, year-round.
I also stay active with my painting business, as well as playing music as a solo musician on the beautiful decks of restaurants in Old Orchard Beach.

Why they chose this property

I bought this property because of Maine's natural beauty. I am a Mainer (although I have lived in Napa Valley, California and miss it greatly). The location was perfect, and I enjoy taking a couple weeks each summer to enjoy the property for myself. After all, the summer goes by in the blink of an eye...

What makes this property unique

Being halfway between the Pier and Ocean Park is a great thing. Ocean Park is a "hidden gem" of a small coastal town with excellent restaurants, small shops, and beautiful views. If fishing is your forte, the Saco River is an excellent choice to spend a day casting lines.
