About this property

The Closest Rental To The Beach; Spring Summer and Fall Weeks Available

Just Voted The #1 Top Beach in the US. Closest Rental To The Beach And Town That You Can Get. Perfect Place for a Fall Getaway For a Family, Couple or a Few Couples ! A One Tenth of a Mile, walk to the beach or the center of Town. As close as you can get to the beach without being on it... Literally !! Only a 4 minute walk before your feet touch the soft sand or take a 4 minute stroll to the center of town to shop, dine, get an ice cream cone or just people watch. This location can not be beat... From the large entertaining deck see and listen to the roar of the ocean, have a beverage and talk to a friend or loved one, smell and feel the salt air and watch the Sun and Moon rise from the Ocean. Let your tensions melt away. All this while sitting in an Adirondak chair. Reverse floor plan gives you a commanding view from above with kitchen, living room, and dining room looking over the deck to the Ocean..

Perfect location for a family vacation
This is the ideal location if you like easy short walks to the beach or downtown. In a very quiet neighborhood, the house is very comfortable and includes everything we needed for a family get-a-way.

Winter weekend
We planned a last minute trip to Ogunquit for the long MLK weekend. The property was great for our small group and we were able to check-in early on Friday! The location can’t be beat. 10 minute walk to the beach and even shorter walk to center of town and front porch. Communication and check-in was very smooth. We will be back!

Great location
We really enjoyed our stay and thought the house was great. Really close to the beach and town. The listing mentioned 5 bedrooms but there were only 4. This wasn’t an issue for us as 4 bedrooms was perfect. Also, not every room has an air conditioner, which also wasn’t a problem but the upstairs bedrooms could get hot if you closed the door. Otherwise, the house was very clean and had nice dishes/utensils, etc.

Good overall property.
Overall the house was good. Not great like I was hoping. The thing I would like to see for our next trip would be new beds for the upstairs bedrooms. The 2 of beds downstairs were fulls not twins. Which caused a problem for the linen company. But they were great and handled the problem without fail! The bedroom downstairs didn't have a working heater. Downstairs bathroom shower didn't have enough water pressure. Overall cleaning of this property was ok not really up to the standard I would expect. Don't get me wrong we did enjoy our time at the house just know with these little improvements it would bring us back time and time again.

FABULOUS LOCATION
Five cousins spent a week in the fabulously located property and loved it! We walked everywhere because the beach, the Main Street with restaurants and shopping, and the beautiful Marginal Way are all within walking distance to this beautiful property. Plenty of room to gather together and relax in the house including the deck! Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and our host was responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend this property!!!

Family Vacation Of A Lifetime
!st I'd like to say that the owmer (Mike) always was available via a text for any question we had. This is importand when renting a home. The reviews rave about the house and location and we can say the reviews are spot on. The walk to town and the beach is so close , this makes it easy when you have young children . The closeness of town was a bonus for the adults which all of us enjoyed. Don't hesitate to rent this home. you'll be happy you did.

Cozy Cottage
My wish post Cancer surgery and during this pandemic was to spend time in Ogunquit with our family. My husband and I had a relaxing time, low key two weeks and could walk to the beach. Put my feet up and read a good book on the porch with the ocean breeze. Our children spent time with us during our stay and there was plenty of room and the new kitchen was great to cook in and enjoyed all the appliances. A pleasant stay!

I own and operate a farm called Smolak Farms in North Andover, Massachusetts, about a 50 minute drive from my home to Ogunquit. Returning to the farm, full time, after graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, we are recognized as one of the leaders in Agricultural Tourism in Massachusetts.

Why they chose this property

This is undoubtably one of the closest and best locations and closest to stay near Ogunquit Beach. Located on a quiet street and only a very short walk to the beach or to the center of town.
