Ogunquit - The Milestone

Ogunquit - The Milestone

10/10 Excellent
"Somewhat dated, however, roomy bedroom, bathroom and separated kitchen/bathroom sink, fridge, and coffee pot. Microwave also available and ample storage space. Non problem finding a parking spot in front of our room. Loved the multiple tables and Adirondack chairs in the front yard, and 2 sitting areas to eat daily continental breakfast. Best location for the beautiful Footbridge Beach access and restaurants! Cold A/C, hot showers, and comfy bed too!"

Stage Run By The Sea

Stage Run By The Sea

8/10 Good
"Petit Motel très propre avec frigo et micro onde. Machine à glace très utile et piscine très propre. Par contre les commentaires disaient facile d’accès à la place 10-15 minutes de marche. C’est plus 20 minutes ce qui était correct pour nous mais il faut penser que cette marche est au gros soleil et il faisait 38 degrés. Pour ceux qui ont des enfants ce n’est pas l’idéal. Nous avons fait 4 aller retour par jour pour aller et revenir de la plage et ensuite le soir pour aller souper. C’est à envisager."
