Family vacation

I brought my kids for a quiet, easy vacation. We couldn't be more pleased. The cottage was clean and cozy. It was close to the beach, arcade and food. Highly recommend and hope to go back next year.

First time was a great time!

You cannot beat the location of this property. A three minute walk to the beach, and close to the arcade and playground which was key for our young kids! We enjoyed the sunsets from the awesome screened in porch. Super nice people in this area and definitely want to come back again!

Great beach house

The location was perfect! Really spacious for the price. We would only change some of the fans as they were barely working and we wished that the AC was not in 1 room making it difficult to have air condiotionning in all 3 bedrooms. Other than that, it was great. We would book again.

Cute spot close to the beach

This property is super cute and nicely decorated. You can tell the owner puts a lot of thought and care into the space. Just a short walk to the beach and arcade is right across the street. Future renters should know that the "bedrooms" are actually one large room with half walls between the "rooms" , so there is no privacy between the bedrooms.

We had a lovely stay!

The property is very well located, at less than 5 min from the beach! Communication with Jill for our arrival was easy and friendly. We felt at a home away from home. She made herself very available if there was anything and it was appreciated! The rooms are spacious and the patio was awesome for cooling down after a beach day. The kitchen is well equipped, with only maybe a cheese grater and a cutting board missing for an optimal cooking experience, but nevertheless everything is very functional! We had a great stay!

Had a Great Weekend!

We stayed at this property towards the end of May. The house was very well stocked and clean. What we loved most was that we were within walking distance from the beach, restaurants, and stores. Our kids LOVED being across the street from an arcade and playground. The screened in porch was great in the morning to drink coffee on and look out at the bay and watch the sunset at night. The owners were very responsive and easy to communicate with leading up to our trip. I can't wait to go back!

Good place to be!

Overall, really nice little beach house. Perfect for one or two families. Really close to the beach (4 mins walk). The host (Jill) is really fast to answer your questions. Maybe a little bit too expensive if we take for consideration that a few things were not included (bed sheets, toilet paper and garbage bags). But overall, I will recommend 100%.

Cozy and Clean!!!

This cottage is absolutely adorable! We had a great week in Maine and cannot wait to back. The cottage is very clean and cozy. There is also plenty of parking. The location is perfect for adults and for children. The arcade, coffee shop, stores and beach are all minutes away. The owners were great and the neighbors were super nice. My husband and I spent many nights sitting in the enclosed front porch watching the sunset. Such a beautiful view! We cannot wait to go back next summer!

Fun!

We had a great time in this "true Maine" cottage. Very open rooms downstairs and plenty of room for our 3 kids upstairs. The highlight is the proximity to the famous arcade, Rollover Cafe and beach. We spent our time relaxing on the front porch while the kids traveled to the arcade and for ice cream just steps from our seats. Wells has such an old town feeling it's a treat. Lots of parking here with a sister cottage on the same property. We will bring our cousins next year to rent the other house. Great family vacation or reunion spot. Also met the neighbor across the street who also rents so it is ideal for a large group. Fun fun week!

Maine escape

Property was true to listing. We had a great time. Short walk to beach and a very peaceful front porch. Plenty of parking as well which was great. The bathroom is small but functional as reviewed by others...we found it perfectly adequate. We utilized the grill and eat in kitchen. Loved the fresh flowers on the table. The games in the living room was a nice touch for rainy days! Thank you 😊

Way over priced for off season and a lack of amenities.

The house was ok, but not disclosed on the listing until after you book is the lack of things like sheets, towels, etc. Cleaning fee was almost as much as the rental of the house.

About the host

Hosted by Jill McTague

Host profile image
There are 2 cottages on this property. Welcome to our Beach Cottages. These houses are nestled in between Wells Beach and Wells Harbor. Enjoy Wells beach, just a few steps away from the back door. Amazing view of the tidal river and gorgeous sunsets awaits. We purchased these cottages in the fall of 2014 and renovated and remodeled both houses.

Why they chose this property

If you prefer the charm and character of exposed beams and built-ins that the Beach House offers , we know you will feel at home here. We fell in love with Wells and had been renting for almost 20 years. We are thrilled to be homeowners now and we know you will love it as much as we do. We hope you enjoy your stay in Wells, Maine.

What makes this property unique

Walkability to Wells Beach, restaurants and shops, and views of the harbor from the enclosed front porch
