It was so cute and had everything we wanted. It is close to Short Sands, has a great back deck, comfortable beds, an awesome enclosed front porch (with AC!), and was perfect for our family of 4\. The owner was wonderful to deal with, and the caretaker who gave us a tour on arrival was so helpful and kind (we had no issues, but I have no doubt she would have been there in a heartbeat if we had). You cannot go wrong booking this location! ##### Kathleen N.

A walk around town - sorry to find the park and zoo closed. I am a writer and used this as a writing retreat. Got some good work done! One downside - a lobster roll is 38! ##### Susan S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Leanore B. 14 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Summer 2024 Overlook 1 property was perfect for our family of four. The location was wonderful, just a short walk to short sands village which was perfect for the pre teens. My personal favorite spot was the porch with the small view of the ocean and breeze. The only down fall was the cleanliness. There was food and sand on the bunk beds and food stuck to the bedspreads. There was also so much dust dirt under the beds. ##### Leanore B.
