I have a hard time with your application. Everything was perfect. my quote is excellent on each of the above questions. Super neat appartment. Well located on a quiet street. the appartment was newly painted and well furnished. Nothing was missing. a big WOW. The host was communicating with us to make sure everything was ok. We really enjoyed our stay and if we go back to OOB next year, we surely rent this cottage.

The house was great! Overall a 5/5 or . Check in was easy- I love the programmable key pads. The house was clean, airy, comfortable. Communication with the hosts was easy. My only 3 comments:1) From the provided pics and the listing, it was hard to tell the rental was attached to another residence. I was looking specifically for a stand-alone rental so if my dogs barked, they wouldn’t annoy anyone. They were quiet to my knowledge, and there were no issues with the tenant on the other side, I just wish it was more clearly communicated in the listing. 2) the backyard is very small and butts up against a business parking lot. It served its purpose, just know it’s a small yard.3) the stairs leading upstairs are steeper and the steps are narrower than standard contemporary homes. The carpet on them is also very slippery. My barefoot slipped off a step as I was coming down to the landing and I fell about 4-5 steps wrenching my back, hit my knee, and overextended my wrist. I’m ok but for someone less sure-footed, older, etc. it could be dangerous. I think a grippy type runner and a mat at the bottom that won’t slide around would help.
We did use the red comforter to cover the couch, this picture was taken as we were packing up the car! The dogs very much liked their stay as well ☺️🐾

A Quiet Corner of Old Orchard Beach

This is a clean, well-maintained rental in a residential neighborhood, with a dedicated parking spot and fenced backyard area. There were ring-style cameras at the front and back entrances and secure locks on the doors The rental is located in a residential area, less than a 10 minute walk downhill to the beach. There is easy and reasonably-priced parking in the downtown area if you choose to drive, and there is also a trolley with a nearby stop. When we invariably locked ourselves out Chris was quick to respond via the Vrbo app. He touched base with us soon after booking, and several times before, during, and after our stay. All of the interactions were very friendly. Chris went out of his way to share some information about places for our family to ride bicycles (bring yours if you can, we definitely enjoyed having them!) and where to safely store them. The unit was well-cooled with air conditioning units both upstairs and down. As other reviewers have mentioned, the stairs to the bedroom are steep and slippery - be sure to not take the stairs in socks! If you’re traveling in a group, be aware there is no door to the bedroom area upstairs. This was a pet-friendly rental but it is preferred that pets stay off furniture/beds - be sure to bring your crate for when you head out and a sheet or blanket to keep things fur-free! Our family of two adults, a first-grader, and a small dog enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent from Chris and Sue again.

My stay at the cottage was exactly what I needed, it’s an updated beachy vibe and excellent use of every space including some rainy day puzzles and books! The small fenced in yard was perfect for the furry family members, and you cant beat the location, such a close walk to the beach, and just far enough away from the busy OOB hustle! Would definitely stay again!
