Ocean Park · Lifestyle
Living in Ocean Park, Maine.
A quiet, family-friendly beach village inside OOB.
Ocean Park lifestyle is porches, the Temple bandshell, summer lecture series, breakfast at Heaven on the Hill, and ice cream at Beach Treats — a multigenerational summer-village rhythm that's been going since 1881 and feels nothing like the OOB pier a mile north.
Ocean Park is the quiet, cottage-lined village at the south end of Old Orchard Beach — founded in 1881 as a Chautauqua-style summer assembly and still anchored by the Temple, the bandshell, and a calendar of summer concerts and lectures. No pier, no arcades — just a wide stretch of sand, walkable streets, and porches.
Cottages & homes in Ocean Park
Gingerbread Victorians and shingled cottages around the Temple, year-round single-families on the inland streets, and condos along East Grand Avenue.
