We had a wonderful week at The Shore Thing. Clean, comfortable, well appointed and stocked. Owner was quick to respond to questions and to help us figure out the entry code (our problem, not his!). We want to come back in 2025.
Wonderful location if you love Ogunquit! Walking distance to everything-Perkins Cove, downtown restaurants and the beach. Well-appointed property with every amenity imaginable.
Highlrecommend and hope to. W b
The condo is in a quiet neighborhood and in a well-maintained complex. It is a 10-ish minute walk to a beach. If you don't want to walk, then a nice pool area is available right across the street. The unit's outdoor deck space also has exposure to the sun for most of the day. The unit is well stocked with necessities and is very comfortable.
Owner was responsive to communications.
This was our return visit to this comfortable and modern rental in beautiful Ogunquit. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the sunrise. It is also located in a great spot for walks along Marginal Way to Main St. and Perkin's Cove. Being a bit cooler in September makes for less crowded beaches to enjoy and comfortable walking to nearby shops and restaurants. This property is a great place to stay!
Enjoyed another great stay at this well-appointed "home away from home". Everything we could of needed was located in the condo. Great communication with owner, Patrick. Plan to return next year.
The Shore Thing is a perfect location! You can park your car and leave it. We could walk to everything, restaurants, the beach, Marginal Way, and shopping in town. The condo was clean and well stocked. The pool was refreshing and peaceful. It was a great week!
This condo was absolutely perfect for our first visit to Ogunquit. I had no idea what area to stay in but this proved to be absolutely perfect for our style. The area was quiet and peaceful but a 10min walk along The Marginal Way gets you to Perkins’ Cove or town. We parked the car and really didn’t need it again. The beach at the end of the street was a gem! We love avoiding the big crowded main beaches so having a more secluded area to enjoy the water was really nice! We’d walk down all the time to catch a sunset or drink morning coffee at the coast. (Also, really awesome waves for surfing and boogie boarding!) The condo location could not be better. Closest condo to the beach and we could access the apt without even needing to go into the main entrance. Super easy check-in, great communication made it so simple. The condo was very comfortable, clean and stocked very well. Awesome deck with water view had comfy seating and a nice big umbrella to make the space so useable. I even did a small oil painting out there bc it was so comfy and perfect. It was such a perfect stay we will def be back!
Exactly what I was hoping for- well-appointed condo with perfect location. Everything we needed was in the condo and more. Enjoyed having coffee on the deck in the morning. Closeness to Marginal Way and the beaches made it a great vacation week.
This place is so perfect. We already rebooked for 2023! The property is immaculate, the ocean view is incredible. We loved sitting out on the deck. Patrick was responsive and helpful. Can't wait for next year!
We loved our stay in Ogunquit! The condo was clean, well stocked and the location can’t be beat. Walk to town, small beach and Perkins Cove. I walked every morning on marginal way and we walked to Perkins Cove and into town for dinner most nights. Pool is deep (4-10 feet) I could only stand in the first few feet of the pool so definitely bring floats. We would stay again.
This is a beautiful, spotlessly clean condo . Very well located , its decoration is pleasant and tasteful. The comfort is absolute ./
C'est un magnifique condo d'une propreté impeccable . Fort bien situé, sa décoration est agréable et de bon goût . Confort absolu .
This was such a great trip for my husband and me. We enjoyed everything. The condo was beautifully decorated with a Parisienne theme and proved to be clean and comfortable. We loved sitting on the deck with the view of the ocean in the distance. We could walk just about everywhere using Marginal Way to go to Perkins Cove and to Main St. Little Beach was conveniently located just down the hill. One of my favorite things to do was walking Marginal Way along the coast in the early morning. There are many good restaurants in the area, and we enjoyed all that we tried. My husband grew up near Portland, so we have made many trips to Maine. I would say that staying in Ogunquit at this condo was the best of all and we look forward to coming back someday.
We enjoyed our stay here – the condo was perfect in size for the two of us and was in a great location. It was a short walk to the Marginal Way and a couple of small beaches (during low tide). And when we wanted to go to Ogunquit Beach, it was only about a 10-15 minute walk. It was also very easy to walk into the center of town for lunch or dinner.
The condo itself was very clean and nicely furnished/decorated, and we felt at home. We spent a lot of time in the mornings sitting on the deck.
There is a parking lot across the street – during the weekend, it might be a little tough to find a spot if you are out and don’t return until 7 or 8 in the evening. But there is a side street that allows street parking and is relatively empty once the beach-goers leave for the day. During the day (or anytime during the week), there were no problems parking in the lot.
The unit is located on the first floor, so depending on how courteous/soft-footed the people who rent the unit above are, you may hear them when in the bedroom.
Patrick was very responsive when we had questions. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again.
We’ve submitted reviews about this property after our last 2 stays and I’m happy to report that our opinion of this property and its owner remains A+. Everything one needs and more is supplied, the unit is spotless, tastefully decorated with a Parisian theme, and it’s a wonderful home away from home from start to finish. Patrick is a helpful, communicative, and caring host. Oh! Added improvement this year is the expanded patio deck! A perfect stay!
Just back from a 2-week stay at this wonderful, comfortable, perfectly located, perfectly furnished with attention to every detail condo. Half-way between the town center and Perkins Cove with quick, easy access to the Marginal Way makes it a convenient spot! During the pandemic, we loved having the porch as access, rather than the main building, and the porch was a wonderful place to enjoy breakfast, relax, and enjoy the scenery. Yes, you can see the ocean.
We’ve stayed at several VRBO’s and this one tops them all. Patrick is a wonderful and responsive host who knows what it takes to be one! Thank you for everything! We look forward to our return!
Everything was great about the property. It's a perfect location and the privacy of Israel head rd beach below Marginal Way is wonderful. You really don't need to go to the large Ogunquit beach if you watch the tides carefully. It's so easy to walk to Perkins Cove, or downtown Ogunquit from Israel Head. The owners have made a relatively small space a cozy residence mazimizing the use of space. My only recommendation would be to trim the hedges around the deck much lower so you can see the Ocean view while sitting, as well as standing on the deck. A quick walk down the road and onto the Marginal Way provides breath taking views that always surprise you depending on the weather, the time of day, and the tide. That was our favorite part. Great for photographers -even caught a double rainbow shot behind the lighthouse. Awesome! And the street is very quiet compared to perhaps staying in a hotel or motel room on
Ogunquit beach. Vacation for us equals quiet for a nice rest at night, low humidity, good ocean views surrounded by great restaurants almost all within walking distance. Would love to get back again sooner rather than later.
Had a great week during Covid. Pool is closed for the season. Not a big deal we are beach people, but would have been nice to jump in after returning from the beach. Didn't find out about the pool closer until the week we went. Walk to the main beach isn't bad without all your beach gear, cooler etc. It's about a mile, but there is a steep hill coming and going. We did it 6 out of seven days, little beach is much closer. At high tide at little beach you be setting on the rocks. Easy walk to many restaurants. Condo was very clean, comfortable, plenty of towels for the week. Condo has everything could possibly need. Owner was very quick to answer all questions. Would stay again
After visiting Ogunquit last year and loving it, I wanted to take my 17 year old daughter. I found "Shore Thing" to be an awesome choice for space, location, convenience and comfort. It ticks all of the boxes. You can walk to everything, Marginal Way is steps away, small private beaches at the end of the road if you do not want to go to Ogunquit Beach (do both!). And the icing on the cake is the beautiful, tastefully done interior with a French beach theme! We loved it and will be back!!
Thanks Pat!!

About the host
Hosted by Patrick Wolfgang
My wife and I both grew up and live in MA. Our favorite spot is Ogunquit - Main Beach. The drive is less than hour to Ogt.
Why they chose this property
We've been coming to OGT since we were kids with our family and always wanted a place that we could walk to everything while on vacation. Marginal Way is the best walking spot on the Maine southern coast. Main Beach in OGT is the #1 spot - great for walking, running, surfing, swimming or just relaxing on the beach. The OGT river is perfect for your kayak or paddle board.
What makes this property unique
Location, Location, Location! 1st floor convenience with private water view deck. Enjoy all the amenities - pool, tennis, grilles and parking. Just park your car for the week and walk to all the restaurants, bars, beaches, coffee shops and of course Perkins Cove.
