Charming Pine Point Cottage - 2 Blocks to Ocean!

Treat yourself to a tranquil northeast retreat by staying at this 3-bed, 1.5-bath vacation rental cottage! Backing up to lush marshes in Pine Point, this quaint Scarborough getaway boasts a bright sunroom, well-appointed sleeping accommodations, and an outdoor space with serene nature views. Spend your days on the beach less than 1,000 feet from the home, explore Old Orchard Beach Pier and Palace Playland, or venture to Portland to peruse the historic streets brimming with shops and restaurants!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Sunroom: Futon

Step inside the 1,000-square-foot interior exuding classic cottage ambiance with cozy furnishings and wood accents. Pile your belongings on the floor and kick back in the living room or sunroom after a long day of traveling!

Throughout the home, you'll find 2 flat-screen Smart TVs to satisfy all your entertainment needs! Additionally, you’ll have free wireless internet access to keep in touch with your loved ones while you’re away.

Cooking endeavors await, both on the gas grill and in the fully equipped kitchen! When all is prepped and ready, gather at the 8-person table for a quality meal.

As the sun sets, make your way to the backyard and share a bottle of wine on the lounge furniture. You're sure to feel at peace while admiring the sprawling salt marshlands and birds flying overhead!

When you return inside, get ready for bed in either the full or half bathroom, both stocked with fresh towels. Take solace in one of 3 bedrooms or the sunroom and drift off to sleep in preparation for another exciting day in Pine Point.

-- THE LOCATION --

Throw on your swimsuits and get ready for some fun under the sun as you stroll 2 short blocks to the beach! The property also offers 2 adult bikes, making it easy to get around the neighborhood. If you brought your boat along, launch it at the public ramp down the road and ride the waves into the horizon.

To spend the day at Old Orchard Beach Pier, simply hop on the trolley that passes through town. Not only can you get some Vitamin Sea at the beach, but you'll also be within steps of numerous waterfront restaurants and Palace Playland with thrill rides!

For even more amusements, make a splash in Funtown Splashtown's wave pool or bumper boats! Those who need a break from the water can head to Maine Indoor Karting where they can zip around and show off their speedy skills.

Maine's southern coast is dappled with lush fairways, including Prouts Neck Golf Course, Willowdale Golf Club, and Dunegrass Golf Club. Treat yourself to a day amid nature on the links, or get a taste of city life when you explore the historic streets of Portland less than half an hour away!

A weekend retreat!
Our stay at the Pine Point Cottage was to die for! Somehow even cuter in person than in the pictures, this cottage met and exceeded all of our needs! Stephanie was such a great host and even texted to see if i needed recommendations in the area. The view from the back deck is unbeatable and offered a lot of wildlife viewing opportunites. The location is perfect, close to the beach and you can walk to restaurants. We are already looking forward to coming back!

Great location, wonderful cottage
We had a great time staying at this cute little cottage in Pine Point. It was comfortable and well managed. I did message the owner about some mildew around the washer and at the bottom of the shower curtain and didnt hear back, so I was a little disappointed in that. I'd expect a little better communication considering we paid a premium for this place during the week of July 4th.

Perfect stay away from the big city!
We rented this property for an anniversary trip and it perfectly fit our needs and desires. We were greeted by a sweet basket and card from our hosts and a cozy home all to ourselves. It was a convenient short drive into Portland and a short walk or bike to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Cute cottage!
Perfect location to relax. Pictures on the listing are accurate. Beach is super close and house is walkable to good restaurants. Hosts were very welcoming, house was clean and well equipped. Bring a fan or two if forecast is going to be hot. The house cools at night with the sea breeze but it takes time to cool off if you’ve been out and closed things up while gone. Otherwise, it was perfect!

Perfect for us
Perfect for us! Such a cute cottage house with a perfect amount of space to hang out and visit with friends and family. We came to Scarborough for a wedding weekend and this house was just what we needed. We found a very thoughtful welcome basket in the refrigerator with welcome goodies. The backyard is a peaceful beautiful spot with deck and chairs, party lights and sweet view. The online pictures are an excellent representation of the house and yard. We had a wonderful time and would absolutely use this house again.

Wonderful stay!
My family and I enjoyed this beach home so much! My parents, my husband and I, and my two children (5 and 7) were quite comfortable. Very charming, and importantly all the comforts of home! My kids were happy to have the red wagon to pull to the beach. There’s a fire pit and a beautiful out door patio, and grill outside. We appreciated the welcome basket and binder of nearby activities/food etc. Wonderful week, you won’t be disappointed!!

Family Get Away
This small but cozy cottage was wonderful for a long weekend away for our family of three adult couples. The cottage was spotless. The kitchen and the baths in this cottage have been beautifully renovated. All the beds are comfortable; a rare find! The cottage is a two block walk from a lovely beach which we frequently visited. We were greeted with a sweet basket of goodies, and our host promptly answered the one question we had. Recommended!

Vacation
We enjoyed the fact that the beach is so close. The owner was very responsive. But the property was outdated. There were plenty of things that we loved: the grill, the games/puzzles/the beach. The mosquitoes were atrocious, but the owner explained that he didn't want to use pesticides, which we completely believe in. However, the setting was so hard to not want to sit outside and enjoy. We literally had to run to the car.

Perfect Rental for Our Group
This property is a great rental, had everything our group could have wanted - only regret is we couldn't stay longer! Property manager has rental well equipped and they pay attention to the details to make your stay comfortable (too many to mention, but if you need something they are likely to have it). We were greeted with a nice gift basket upon arrival, which was a nice touch. Easy walking location - quick walk to a great beach spot, walking distance to several restaurants and a coffee shop for your morning coffee. Could just park the car and leave it in the driveway if you wish. Great location to explore other parts of Maine if you choose to, with short drives to other attractions. Great marsh view for evening sunsets. The 3 bedrooms accomodated 6 adults and 2 infants - rooms were on small side, but not tiny. Bathrooms were nice, but only one shower. No air conditioning, which made upstairs a little warm - fortunately the temperatures were not too hot during our stay. Great property in a great location - nothing else to say.

Perfect Pine Point getaway
This house on the marsh in Pine Point was terrific. The house was clean, the location easy to walk to beach, and the views over Scarborough Marsh were fantastic. Coffee on the enclosed front porch in the morning and wine on the marsh in the evenings, who could ask for more? Bayleys lobster and The Stern are easy walking distance for great views, and seafood. The owners were wonderful and very responsive when we reached out to them. This is definitely a repeat vacation rental for us in the future!

Beautiful, charming, cozy cottage in a lovely setting!
We had a great mini family reunion here. The cottage is super cozy and rustic. Bathrooms are very clean and new, which was a plus. Location is great. Close to nature yet not far away from great restaurants and shops. Bonfires nightly overlooking the beautiful open space out back. Owners were incredibly welcoming and responsive. We had a wonderful time and will return!

Perfect Beach Getaway
This cottage was absolutely perfect for a weekend getaway. The space was clean and had a lot of character. The bathrooms were updated and there were so many special added touches the hosts included in our stay that made us feel welcome in the small community. We loved hauling our stuff a couple blocks to the beach in the red wagon, using the nice beach chairs and beach towels. We had never been to that part of Maine before, and the photos and description of the beach were 100 percent accurate and exactly what we were looking for in a girls getaway weekend. We took an Uber to Portland one day, and spent another day on the beach. We also explored the suggested seafood place right down the street and the bar located in the log cabin. We were greeted with a lovely welcome basket and handwritten note, which was a very nice touch. I hope to return to Pine Point again and would most definitely recommend and stay at this cottage again. We absolutely loved it!!

All the amenities you need - towels, linens etc. Not big bedrooms with poor lighting, but only there to sleep. Code on the door so you don't need to worry about keys. Washer and dryer was a huge plus. Well stocked kitchen, great grill. Updated bathrooms. Very clean. Nice coastal decor. The beach within walking distance was very private and nice.
