Best of both worlds
We booked this property for a 3-generation family vacation. Upon arrival we were pleased that the backyard was the inlet and a short walk across the street was the beach. We got to enjoy sunrises at the beach and sunsets over the inlet. Beautiful. The cottage was super clean and cozy. All necessary appliances and amenities were available, good quality and trouble-free for our use. We loved the “in-law” suite on the first floor. It was perfect for the grandparents. The upstairs BRs were right next to each other and not what I would call private, but that didn’t bother us! The kayaks, beach chairs and games came in handy. We loved the backyard for daily gatherings. Communicating with the owner was pleasant and timely. We would not hesitate to rent again.

My family had a wonderful stay at this house in Wells. The location was perfect for beach days and sunset marsh views. The house layout was perfect for our group with 3 adults and 2 children. Would recommend for a family beach stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. The amenities were great. The downstairs in-law apartment was great. The bed was extremely comfortable. The upstairs 3 bedrooms were extremely clean. The beds were comfortable. The problem with the 3 bedrooms is that there is no privacy with the middle bedroom as you have to walk through that bedroom to get to the other 2 bedrooms. The house is noisy as the noise Carrie’s from one bedroom to the other 2 upstairs bedrooms. It was extremely nice to have the washing machine and dryer. It was wonderful to have linens, hand soap, hand towels, paper towels, Toilet paper and aluminum foil to use. Both kitchens come well equipped with all of the kitchen things needed for the week. We loved the big living room- it was great to spend time together in the evening. The kayaks were very fun to use when the tide was “ in”. Ty for an enjoyable stay!

Perfect beach house
Our only complaint about this trip is the fact that the pictures don't really do the place justice. It's a lovely practical beach house abutting the estuary with the harbor tide right up to the back Everything was clean and well appointed. The bathrooms had great water pressure and the fixtures were clean and in great shape. The kitchen was modern and well appointed The suite downstairs is beautiful and has a wonderful view of the bay. 100 paces to the beach, 100 paces back. You can't beat it. One of the other nice things about this place is that it's not right up on top of it's neighbors, being set so close to the estuary, so you have a nice cushion of space between you and your neighbors. Which is great if you have a crying baby or kids who like to shriek like 12 year olds do. Anyway, great trip, great time. Thanks for everything!!

Perfect Getaway!
My husband and I always slip away to Maine for our anniversary in June. This was the perfect location to recharge. Cheryl is so friendly and the cottage is super clean and cozy. Beautiful Wells beach was invigorating and the marsh's sunsets did not disappoint. Thank you! J & C

We had a last minute change of vacation plans and we were so lucky to find this home. This house, location, neighbors and sun-sets were the best! Cheryl (owner) was amazing! She checked in on us and was there quickly for questions! Thank you!

Excellent experience staying at this house. Owner is very responsive. Plenty of room - beautiful sunsets right from the back of the house & short walk to the beach. Would recommend for a relaxing week at the beach. Great to have kayaks as well. Owner was excellent to work with. Nice area.

Perfect home away from home
We have rented this house for two summers now and have had excellent stays both times. The house is a perfect home away from home, stocked with everything you need for a comfortable and fun beach vacation. Just add groceries! The back yard and personal access to the marsh and kayaking are key!
