We were so pleased with our stay at this cottage in Camp Ellis. The cottage was very clean, cozy, and well-decorated with beach-themed items. The location was perfect, as it is a very short walk (and even faster and safe bike ride) to the beach. The general store and Huot’s (a seafood restaurant) were very convenient (and also a short walk or bike ride away). The place is in a quiet neighborhood but a quick drive to Old Orchard for some arcade games, beach shops, and rides for the kids. My husband and I, as well as our two teenagers equally enjoyed our stay. The owners of the property were very kind, helpful and considerate - although we did not need to contact them for much! The check-in process was super easy and notes at the cabin were very helpful in case we had any questions. We will be thrilled to come back for another stay next summer!

The Rental was very spacious and probably the best out of my 13 years Renting up OOB. We spent several days on the Ferry State Beach that was exceptionally beautiful.

We loved our stay here. We've been staying in Camp Ellis for years and this is one of our favorite places we have stayed at. Cute and clean. The street is also lovely, shady and quiet. Close to the general store and the beach. John and Roxanne are great and quick to help with anything you need. We truly enjoyed our stay here and will be back.

Spent 8 nights. Well stocked and easy to stay. My husband worked from the house for the week. The internet worked well. The beach is very close by with a path to walk along when the tide is high.

If you are looking for a casual house in a quiet location, walking distance to general store, incredible and relaxed seafood restaurant, the beach and wonderful neighbors, this is the house for you! Don’t let me miss the wonderful owners who are incredibly responsive and provide a comfortable home to the guest. Having spent my summers growing up in OOB, I was afraid I may be a little too far out- not the case. The house is in a quiet neighborhood just far enough away from the crowds and hustle and bustle of the amusement park and pier but just a short trolley ride to all- and $1/person! I would definitely recommend this property and would consider staying again should my travels take me back to Maine.

What a week!! My family (4 adults, 1 child) rented this home the week of July 4 this year. We were also permitted to bring our small dogs for a fee. We chose to head north as I hadn't been to Maine, and the weather in Maryland was atrociously hot! Little did we know the heat wave would follow us to Maine. This home does not have air conditioning (which is probably normally perfectly fine) but they do supply LOTS of fans, which we used EVERY one :) The home was equipped with literally everything we could need, even beach chairs and a cart! The only thing we needed to bring was food and linens. There was plenty of room for us to be comfortable while inside. There are games, books, TV, and of course, the Maine scenery. We took the opportunity to drive to several lighthouses to the South, went on a successful whale-watching trip, journeyed to Monhegan Island, and explored downtown Portland which we LOVED. The owners are very communicative and nice and even returned a belt we accidentally left in house. The home sits VERY close to the neighbor, who happens to be very nice also. Parking was a little tight for our large minivan and large SUV. The driveway is shared with the neighbor. There is a small yard, and the house is on a quiet, low-traffic street just up the road from a marina and the beach. The beach was much smaller than we expected and is shared by a good number of people at this time. The home is about 2 blocks off the beach - a very easy walk. We also wandered out on a jetty for the fireworks displays. The home is also located about 5 miles from Old Orchard Beach which has tons of people, beach, restaurants, and an amusement park with an arcade. Overall, this trip was wonderful in so many ways, the home and its owners included. I would certainly recommend renting the Molinas' home and would consider returning myself.
