LOCATION If there’s one reason people come to Old Orchard Beach year after year, it’s because this town really knows how to play. For more than 170 years, this community of about 9,000 year-round residents has thrown open its doors and invited folks to join in the fun. And boy, have they responded. During the warmer months, Old Orchard Beach’s population swells to upwards of 75,000. Many come all the way from Eastern Ontario and Quebec, often year after year. Things to Do in Old Orchard Beach Why? First, there’s that beach, all seven miles of it. When the tide is out and the sun is shining, the sand goes on forever. People nestle in for a nap, play football, toss a frisbee, venture into the surf. There seems to be room for everyone. Then, there’s the Old Orchard Beach Pier. First built in 1898, the Pier once marched more than 1,800 feet out into the bay. It hosted restaurants, shops and even a casino where Frank Sinatra once crooned. Storms eventually broke down the old Pier; the newer one is slightly shorter. But it, too, includes places to eat, drink and shop, all of them above the waves. Back on shore, check out Palace Playland, the Old Orchard Beach amusement park. Here, you can scare yourself on the big-kid rides, play for tickets on the arcade games or watch the waves below as you sit atop the Ferris wheel. More than anything, OOB is a local’s town. Stroll the Old Orchard Beach boardwalk, enjoy small, local shops and stop by Old Orchard Beach restaurants, local bars and local hotels and motels. Pick up a sandwich, shop for a t-shirt, sip a beer or grab some cotton candy. People have been strolling these same streets and enjoying these places for generations. Ready for some quiet time? Visit Ocean Park. This woodsy, summer retreat was founded in 1881 in a section of OOB as a place for religious camp meetings and self-improvement lectures. It’s still owned by an association and hosts ‘The Temple,’ the only octagonal church in Maine. Restaurants in Old Orchard Beach Old Orchard Beach restaurants range from small places serving great pizza by the slice to sit-down spots with terrific views of the sea.

We all had a nice time, my family liked location and convenient walk to groceries, beach and Pier
Only draw back was coffee pot wasn’t correct for the coffee maker, the first time we made coffee it didn’t end up in pot and their was no directions so we ended up driving to D&D in am, however it was no big deal and if that is the worst thing to happen on a vacation I would say we were lucky.
All and all a great time was had by all and the place was lovely

After our original vacation stay backed out on us the day we were due to start vacation, we were able to book a stay at this house and it was wonderful! We enjoyed the yard more than a Sandy beach as a backyard! The host was very responsive to all of our questions and got us into the house quickly! We will be back!

Girls weekend with seven women was a success. Five bedrooms and the air conditioning worked great. Plenty of parking and an easy ride or walk to the beach. (Which was packed!) Kitchen was good size and the manager got back to us about the size of the coffee pot and offered a large 18 cup size. The large kitchen table was perfect for meals, games and gathering. There were cute boxes with cleaning products, plenty of towels and a washer and dryer. The con's- there was a mouse in the house! We only saw it twice, but still a little shocking. The toilet, sink and shower downstairs was full of rusty water for the first hour we were there and we had to get creative when we realized we need a can opener.

The house was a good size. It was clean and ready for us. It would be nice if the owners would come in and take care of some details, getting some things around the house fixed. But it didn’t cause a problem with our stay.
I was very annoyed that there were no dish cloths, dish towels or hand towels for the bathrooms. We had to go out and buy some. There were also no extra sheets or pillow case covers. Those would be good for the extra air mattresses, and I’m not sure why they would provide pillows with no pillow cases. There were exactly two towels and two washcloths per room, and that was it.
Also, only 7 beach towels, not 14 as the listing says, and the walk to the beach is over 10 minutes. It wasn’t as close as I thought it would be, but still walking distance.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and the house worked great for our family. I hope the owners will fix some of these details for future occupants.

We’ve stayed at OOB houses in past years and have to say I was overall really happy with the house space/layout and location. Really great for big gatherings, never felt like we were on top of each other in the house. The ability to text (instead of call or an app) with questions/requests was awesome and convenient. They were quick to respond and definitely helpful!
Feedback:
Cleanliness - I think overall the home was generally clean but it felt like we were the first renters of the season or it had only received a generic “turnover” cleaning. Just felt like a good deep cleaning would be a plus for the floors.
AC- the listing said bedrooms upstairs have window AC units but only two bedrooms have them. There are window fans available but the miscommunication/wording was a disappointment (two girls in our group were very pregnant) and it was pretty hot one of the nights even with all bedroom doors open trying to disperse the AC. Just suggest updating the listing wording.
Bedroom space & general decor - renter feedback I think they could downsize & remove a lot of table decor or the oversized seating in each bedroom - it didn’t feel cluttered but just wanted to share it could be simplified to give more space :)
Overall we really were very happy with the stay and would definitely come back for the overall house + beds were very comfortable - just felt there were some minor areas for improvement that we wanted to share

A bed broke and no one responded to fix it. The sink disposal did not work, and the internet was down for a day and at other times it was slow and inconsistent.
