Ocean Lure is a Delight!
Our family stayed at the Ocean Lure over Thanksgiving and could not have been happier. The location of the home is in a lovely neighborhood not far from the beach, restaurants, and grocery stores. The interstate is easily accessible, allowing us to connect with Portland, Kennebunkport, Freeport, and Boston. While November was too chilly to swim, we did enjoy the lovely view the ocean provided and the opportunity to walk along the beach. The check in process was smooth and the house was 100% as presented. It was spotless, warm, and welcoming when we arrived. The kitchen had everything we needed for the stay, the rooms were well-sized, and the beds were comfortable. The homeowners were friendly, easy to contact, and provided all the comforts of home. Highly recommended for your next trip to Maine.

Ocean Lure is an Excellent Place To Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Lure. Really wish we could have stayed longer! We could tell everything was well-thought out, with all the accoutrements provided there is everything you need. The instructions were simple and dining recommendations were on the spot. Ocean Lure was very clean and had such a warm feeling to it…felt like home. Jeff was very attentive to our needs, answered our questions and provided us with whatever we needed. If you’re vacationing below Portland in Maine, we strongly recommend the Ocean Lure.

Ocean Lure experience
The home was very clean, comfortable and a great location. Would have enjoyed the beautiful sitting area in the backyard, but we were to busy, visiting the Ocean, shopping and enjoying the great restaurants. Could not ask for a better place to stay..

Mother’s Day weekend girls trip
This was our first annual Mother’s Day weekend girls trip. There were 6 of us and it was just perfect! We were able to check in early, as Jeff contacted us to tell us the house would be ready for 11:00 which we never asked for! Bonus! We were able to drop our stuff and venture off for lunch and shopping. We stayed off season so there was no trolly yet so the walk was a little long to Ogunquit but we managed. Thank you Jeff for being the perfect host! We love you house and yard! I would love to return with my husband!

Our Beach Get-Away
Ocean Lure is a wonderful, relaxing place to be! We were close to many of Maine's coastal attractions, great restaurants, and beaches. The backyard was a perfect place to enjoy a coffee, read a good book, and enjoy the natural surroundings. Many amenities were available to us such as beach chairs, bikes with helmets, and a gas grill for outdoor cooking.

This was the perfect spot for a long winter weekend. We walked th beach into Ogunquit and enjoyed a coffee from the market.

What did Jim!
We had such a lovely time at this perfect little cottage. Super clean, very well appointed and stocked with everything you could think of from cleaning products if needed, which they weren’t, back up supplies for bathroom, sheets, towels, etc. The kitchen is small, but totally workable. The appliances were excellent and there was a huge stock of coffee for everyone in the morning. The attention to detail is lovely and the quality of the linens and towels were also superior. The living room was very cozy with big couches and super comfy chair. We would definitely come back here to stay if we’re in the area. We drove down to the beach and even though it was a cold November day. It was absolutely stunning and a perfect beach for walking. Thank you to our hosts who obviously make an effort to make this little gem. A beautiful stay.
