Booked online and the money was taken very quickly from my Mastercard. We had to cancel within a reasonable period of time. Tried phoning and could not leave a message at anytime of day. No response to email. Website is now down and the phone is disconnected. Mastercard is giving us a hardtime as they cannot confirm with the vendor. I used to go to maine with my parents growing up and I wanted to share that with my family, I have to question that now as trying to get answers is very difficult. Perhaps old orchard is not a place to visit anymore.

Don't waste your time. They will steal your money, they are dishonest people. It smells bad and its dirty. If you are smart you would look else where. If you do by chance book a room here and something goes wrong, (don't worry something will go wrong) don't believe the owner Dennis. He lies, He will say "oh I will refund your money" or " I will make things right I will give you a free weekend" Its all lies he will say anything. Don't trust him.

“Don't judge a place by its web site -- Stay Away from Caris Landing”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

I reserved 2 nights at a cottage online, and received no confirmation, although my credit card was charged twice immediately. The day before i was to arrive, the manager (Dennis) called to confirm my arrival plans and assured me he would credit the double billing when I checked in. He called again to confirm my arrival while I was en route. Upon arriving, I was informed there was no cottage available (it was double booked) and he could move us to the tiny room at the end and back of the building and would comp us the whole weekend (Note: the comped room had broken lightbulbs, a bathroom that I was afraid to use, disgusting towels, a rock hard and squeaky bed, and no TV -- even though he promised to bring one in). In the middle of the night, another guest entered the room with a key, and insisted he had paid for the week there. We were so distressed we left immediately, and spent hours trying to find alternate lodging (it was Labor Day weekend -- all booked up). The next morning we returned to check out and insist on our refund, and the office was locked with staff sitting outside waiting, We returned a couple hours later, and were told a refund could be issued because the power was out due to the recent hurricane. He would call in a few days to confirm all set. Of course he didn't, so we returned a week later to pressure him in person. He insisted the power was still out in the office, but a work order was pending, and we would have our credit by the next business day.. and he would call to confirm. Dennis is a con artist. I am relying on my credit ard company to resolve this matter.

Room Tip: Stay away. This place needs to be shut down!

“Worst place ever! Stay away!”

We were in one of the - totally run down- "cottages": dirty, smelly, shower stall discusting, no coffee machine, ustensils, plates or pots and pan, just a fridge and stove! Continental breakfast is a few donuts from Dunkin Donuts... Bedcover dirty, smelly sheets (do they actually change them?). No closet to put your clothes. Broken screens and blinds on all windows. And we could go on and on... Better stay in your car or sleep on the beach!!!

Room Tip: I don't think there is one!
