The cottage is located only one block to 7 miles of sandy beach, stretching from Camp Ellis to Scarborough and is also adjacent to the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge. Adorable Ocean Park is only a short bike ride or walk away where you can enjoy cinnamon buns, pizza and ice cream. In addition to great birding, other outdoor activities include whale watching, exploring the Trails of Saco, local and island golf, biking along The Eastern Trail and shopping. Head to downtown Old Orchard Beach for family entertainment at Palace Playland. Portland is only a 20 minute drive away and the restaurant scene is amazing!

A lot better than a hotel

The property is updated and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable, and bedding and linens were provided. The residence is in a nice neighborhood, and it is close to the beach. We’ll be back for sure.

Weekend Getaway

My two sisters and I had a wonderful long weekend at The Low Tide. Relaxing and comfortable stay and great location to all of our favorite places in Maine. Friday (November 1st) was especially warm and walking the beach and getting our feet wet was a huge plus! Looking forward to another getaway and great accommodations. Barbara

The property was just awesome. A very well taken care of cottage. Had everything you could imagine. Very short walk to the beach and a short ride to arcade and amusement park for the kids. Would absolutely stay there again!

Wonderful House, Terrific Location, Responsive Owners

We have stayed at many VRBO's over the years and I have to say this is my favorite house so far. The attention to detail from Suzanne and Brian were outstanding. The house has everything you need and the beds are super comfortable. The proximity to the beach and other locations in Maine are perfect. We cannot wait to go back!

This property was exactly what we needed! Short walk to the ocean for early morning sunrises, short drive to Portland, Kennybunkport and Ogunquit. We checked off every item on our list of things to see. Thank you for a very well equipped and comfortable home!

Beautiful rental near ocean

We had a great time at this rental, it had everything we needed, it was clean and was beautifully decorated. The owners were super nice and had great communication with us. This location is super close to the beach and other amenities. If you are a light sleeper, I would bring a pair of ear plugs, as it does have road noise. I would stay here again and recommend to friends and family!

Excellent trip!

We went to Saco with our toddler and parents and had a wonderful time. The house was perfect distance from the ocean in a quiet neighborhood. NESN is always a bonus. The owners were very helpful and responded quickly to questions. We would love to return next year!

A Charming, Modern Beach House

We had a wonderful stay at this property. Just one block from the beach, this house was perfect. It is spacious enough to accommodate mid-sized family. It was modern with a beachy feel. We were in a tranquil neighborhood away from the Old Orchard Beach crowds, but close enough to enjoy some carnival time. There are also hiking trails nearby and seaside views. A wonderful getaway.

Truly intelligent design

Two cons: 1. One room upstairs had beds that were very low to the ground. 2. A pump, no doubt necessary in that location, ran 24/7 and caused a shallow pool to form in the yard. Abundant pros: The house has zero wasted space—it represents truly intelligent design. It’s also decorated beautifully. The couch was giant and was so comfortable. The TV frame was awesome in that it permitted broad access to numerous services. The enclosed back porch was roomy and comfortable…in a word: fantastic. The supplies—bug spray, TP and paper towels, bath and face towels—were so welcome. The proximity to the beach was fantastic—the house is barely 2 blocks away. Having filtered water on-demand in the fridge was amazing. The bookshelf was full of great titles like The Perfect Storm and brain teasers, with which our party had a lot of fun. Having two bathrooms could not have been better. There was SO much storage and so many hooks available to us—a rare thing in a VRBO property! The decor and the attention to detail made the house feel like a true home away from home. Bonus: The property owners were kind and attentive.

Quick walk to the beach.

Clean and freshly renovated. Family of adults gathered. 3 nice bedrooms for adults. Road noise is a bit rough, but the amenities and proximity to things makes up for it. Would book again.
