Named for one of our pups, Arlie`s Digs is a two-bedroom one bathroom condo unit on the ground floor of a three-story 150-year-old house that was converted to condos a few years ago. Original pine floors throughout. The bedrooms - one King and one Queen - have new mattresses, ceiling fans, closets, storage, lamps, and charging stations. The Living Room has seating for six+ with a 55-inch Samsung `smart` TV. The sofa is comfortable but is not a `sleeper` sofa. Also, separate desk and chair in LR with dedicated electrical outlet. The bathroom has a large shower and a full-sized front-loading washer and dryer. The kitchen has a gas range, a moveable mini-island with butcher block top, bar seating for 2, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, pots and pans (incl lobster pot), cups, glasses, dishes, etc. The separate dining room has a round dining table and a bar with glasses appropriate for your favorite drinks. A/C is provided by window units. Off the kitchen is a nice deck with a table and chairs w/ an umbrella, and a large grassy back yard which is not fenced, but is removed from the street.
Our guests have access to all of Unit 1. The driveway in front of the building (off Preble St) is reserved for Unit 1. The driveway accommodates two cars one parked behind the other (tandem). The driveway on the back of the building off Day Street is for Units 2 & 3. The yard is shared with Units 2 & 3. The Weber gas grill is just off the deck outside our kitchen door and is shared with the other units. The deck itself is technically shared by all three Units, but since Units 2 & 3 have decks on the other side of the building, there is usually no overlap.
Welcome to Arlie’s Digs at Willard Beach. We are beyond excited to have you as our guest! This neighborhood is very special to us. We moved to Maine just a few years ago, and walked our dogs Arlie, Foster and Atticus every day to dog-friendly Willard Beach and throughout the charming and very walkable surrounding neighborhood. They couldn`t get enough of Willard Beach during the early morning and early evening off-leash hours.
South Portland is a perfect location from which to explore the beautiful Maine coast, the City of Portland and The Old Port, Cape Elizabeth, Knightville/South Portland and, really, all of Southern Maine. Your accommodations are just steps from the famous Scratch Bakery and also Willard Scoops (ice cream shop); and a three-minute walk to Willard Beach. A 10-minute walk brings you to wonderful dining at David`s 388, tasty BBQ at Elsmere BBQ, DiPietro`s Market, Rosemont Market, donuts and sweets at the Cookie Jar, Omi`s Coffee Shop, Terra Cotta Pasta Company, and Thai Taste.
Arlie’s Digs has dedicated two-car tandem parking right by the front door. Additionally, street parking is available on Preble Street. Note that street parking is restricted in the winter months for snow removal equipment. Please be mindful of the dates in effect.
It is a ten-minute drive to Portland`s Old Port and Ft. Williams Park (Portland Headlight). Don`t feel like driving? Uber and Lyft are available and South Portland does have city bus service - the schedule can be found at the city`s website.
Just off the entry hall is a door to the basement. The door is not locked, but there is nothing in the basement that a guest could use or would need. The stairs to the basement are steep and narrow and need to be avoided. Please stay out of the basement. Thanks!
Please no pets on the furniture. Do not leave any perishables out at the end of your stay. No smoking on the property. Please observe quiet hours from 10pm until 7am.
Guests with Children: While children are welcome in our home, please note that the property has not been childproofed. It may not be suitable for very young children or those requiring a child-safe environment.
