What travellers are saying
- NHjoSaco, ME12,526 contributionsWe live only a few miles from Old Orchard Beach (OOB), so I'll give you a 'local's' point of view. The beach itself is very nice, and you can walk to several other beaches (Pine Point, Ocean Park, Ferry Beach, etc.). The beach is right off the arcade and the village, where there are several restaurants, fast food places, and bars (good and not so good), shops, amusements, and so on. It's particularly nice at night when there are fireworks once or twice a week and all the neon lights are on. Kids love this place. There are plenty of hotels, inns, B&Bs, and condo rentals. You're also close to some great restaurants, bars and shops in Saco, Biddeford, and Scarborough, and it's not far from Portland or Kennebunkport. Some consider OOB and its arcade and pier 'tacky', but it depends on how you look at it. It can be tacky, but it's a lot of fun. The pier is historic and has seen better days, but it's a marvel. Tons of French-Canadians come to OOB every summer, and it's more popular than ever, especially after Covid.Written June 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ChemornMohegan Lake, NY208 contributionsNot really fair to judge this place since I visited after season. Most of the food stands and restaurants were closed. Had 1 tshirt stand open and 1 food stand open. A lot more there but closed. Only restaurant open was Hooligans which was good. Bathrooms for general public were closed. Would love to see it during summer season some day.Written September 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- NHjoSaco, ME12,526 contributionsWith Memorial Day only a few weeks away, the Palace Playland was getting prepped when I went by.

- Sally G1 contributionPirates Cove Miniature Golf was a great place to spend time with my 8 year old grandson while on vacation. There are 2 courses to choose from. We came 2 days in a row so we could play both courses. Both were a lot of fun.Written July 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Lone Pine won a gold medal at the 2023 World Beer Cup recently for their Imperial Maple Sunday. As much as I love maple and craft beer, I found this too sweet for my tastes, but the blueberry sour was good. The beer garden hasn't really changed from what it was before, except for the new branding, etc. They also have an indoor space and plan to be open year-round and serve more food options. The prices are a bit higher than at their location in Portland, but that's probably because it's in OOB.Written May 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Resie82Scarborough, Maine, United States54 contributionsNice course with an interesting layout but it's not female friendly. There is one port-a-potty on the 13th hole and it's disgusting. Getting to the clubhouse between 9 and 10 involves going way out of your way. There used to be a snack shop/bathroom near the 9th green but that is gone, replaced with yet another housing development. They keep squeezing in more and more houses so close to the holes. No wonder many of them have put up nets to protect their patios. Also, no water on the course and again going to the clubhouse at the turn to buy something is well out of the way. No beverage cart on a Sunday either. They do have a nice clubhouse and restaurant.Written September 12, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
