Great holiday house

Our family (two adults and two teenagers) had a lovely relaxing time here for a week in July. The house was really nicely decorated and equipped to a high standard. We enjoyed the table tennis and BBQ area of the back garden and sitting on the deck at the front. The house had a great location, close to the beach, and a short drive to Portland. Would recommend a holiday here.

Beautiful home!!

Very spacious with all amenities needed; TV, Wi Fi, books, ping-pong table, large backyard with bbq and designated eating area. Beautifully renovated, open concept kitchen able to accommodate large groups comfortably. The cottage is less than 5 minutes walk to the beach and also very close to downtown OOB (restaurants, shops, carnival, and pier). We would definitely rent this home again and recommend it to friends.

Family Summer Vacation

Owner Kevin was responsive to questions and accommodating when we requested a later checkout. The living room/bonus bed area was hot when temps were 90°+. ACs are only located in the 2 bedrooms. House was comfortable when the heat wave passed. 15 mins walk to the pier and 5 mins walk to the beach. We could hear the upstairs family/children walking around, we didn’t mind as we also had small children on the trip. House was as advertised. Would stay again in the future. Great option, close to the beach.

Great location

Stayed for the Ironman 70.3 race. The location was under 10-15 min walk to the beach, pier and all our race activities. Plenty of space within the home for our family of 7 adults, was nice to have the extra single bed tucked in a corner. Bought fish at The Bait Shed to grill a few nights and with the great kitchen was able to eat in most of our meals. No storage containers for leftovers, so may want to bring your own. Had a wonderful time, didn't need to contact the host as all was explained in prior email. Would stay again if back in the area.

Nice property

Good location and very well equipped house. However, it is on a very noisy street and there’s a lot of noise coming from the unit upstairs. Other than that, the property is excellent. 3 blocks away from the beach.

COVID Escape

We stayed in the first floor of this 2 family home. It was very well equipped and located very conveniently to the beach and local attractions. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals for the entire family. The backyard was very spacious with a gas BBQ grill and outdoor seating for six. The Roku TV and internet access was great for the days we couldn't make it to the beach. The onsite washer and dryer was very convenient. The only complaint we had, was the large couch in the living room. It was old pleather and was flaking everywhere. Each time we sat down and got up it would stick to our clothes. We ended up using the extra sheets to cover the couch during the stay. Other than that, we had a great time and would consider staying here again.

We had a great time here. The property was just as listed, loved the backyard and things already here for kids to play with. Close walk to the beach and close by anything else we needed or wanted. Kevin was wonderful and quick to respond to any questions before we came, and we didn't need anything once we got here. We will definitely be back again! Thanks for making this little getaway possible for us!
