About this property

Air-Conditioned, Pet-friendly, charming, quiet cottage sleeps six with two bedrooms and a trundle bed on the spacious sun porch, which is also a great breakfast area and excellent for relaxing enjoying those summer nights with all the windows open.

Newly installed air-conditioning cools the entire house.

The great kitchen space, which includes a microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, and 4 burner stove, also has a side door for easy access to vehicles and a large, beautiful backyard for those summer cookouts. Gas grill/BBQ and utensils available for your use.

Being on the ocean side of Rte 1 (and far away enough to enjoy this quiet neighborhood) you are less than a mile from great ocean views and 1.8 miles from Wells beach, accessible along a pleasant, scenic coastal road. The house provides a great central location for access to coastal drives, restaurants, sites, and great Wells antique and specialty shops as well as shopping for all your general needs. You are minutes away from Ogunquit and Kennebunkport in this central location, and the best ice cream shop in the entire area is located on Eldridge road, right off of Batchelder lane.

My home is very pet friendly and there is an entertainment center with a flat screen TV, DVD, Cable, CD, and digital music capability. Movies, books, and games are also available.

Prime summer weeks are now available!

Family Vacation

This was a great place to stay having our dog. We never bring our dogs on vacation to Maine. This year we had some things going on and wanted to bring him. It was a great area to take him for walks. The owner of the house was out of the country and still got back to questions I had about the air conditioner. He was quick and helpful. If you’re looking for a house that is dog friendly and in a great location this is the place.

Great location but…

Great location, walking distance to beach. Sean very helpful with Wi-Fi problems to get us on. Just wish more info about sign in and password was there. Also problem getting cable working but Sean helped with that also. Kitchen and bedrooms were fine but overall cleanliness left a little to be desired. We needed to vacuum cottage. Bathroom had a urine smell the whole time. Sean installed an air purifier but smell was there our whole stay. Needed to run purifier all day. Washer worked but dryer didn’t. Air conditioners worked fine but house had a musty smell. Sean was a lot of help but this place needs some upgrades.

Enjoyed

Family of five and two dogs enjoyed our stay in Wells. House served us well for the week to explore the towns around us. Scoop Deck around the corner for ice cream was amazing, make it a stop there’s a reason they have lines every night. Enjoyed pizza from La Pizzeria in Ogunquit. Pans available to cook fresh lobster at the house. Several close beach access spots. It was rainy lately and with the marsh proximity mosquitoes were a battle at times at the house and out on some of our walks on the trails locally so pack spray. If your looking for fancy kept looking but if a cute little house to lay your head down at and occasionally cook at us all you need this is perfect! Only wish there was a fire pit out back to unwind with in the evenings otherwise no complaints and would stay again!

Perfect location - Owner was great to work with!

My husband and I and our two dogs spent a week here in July. The cottage was in the perfect location; a great backyard, so close to the beaches, and probably too close to the famous Scoop Deck, seeing as we were there nightly! : ). We had a little issue with one of my dogs who decided chewing on furniture would be a good habit to pick up while on vacation. Shaun was great to work with, and to my surprise said we were welcome back! We hope to make our way back soon.

Great Location

This cottage is located in a quiet neighborhood and was perfect for our needs. The kitchen is very small, but I didn't want to spend time there anyway. They could use a couple of more towel hooks in the bathroom, but overall we could not have asked for anything better. We will be back!

Perfect getaway!

We had a wonderful stay here! Close walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood, and lots of ice cream right around the corner! Shaun was very informative and communicative, which I appreciated very much. Being able to bring our dog with us on this trip was also a big treat, so big thanks to Shaun for allowing this property to be pet friendly. Would book again!

Lovely property near the beach

The cottage was well equipped and loved that we were able to check in so early. We enjoyed early morning walks on the beach with our dog. Several of our family members were here the same week and we had a little gathering on the beautiful front porch. Would recommend this place for families who like peace and quiet.

2019 Maine (Wells) Familly Vacation

We loved the location of this property. Very quiet neighborhood. Fully stocked kitchen. Close walk to the beach which I did every morning with the dog. Short drive to Ogunquit, Kennebunk Port and many other points of interest. Perfect for families with dogs. We adored the sunny front porch with lots of windows and space were we had our diners and relaxed to the cool ocean air breeze. The owner clearly takes great care of the property and its renters. Thanks! Great memories were made this vacation!

Pet-friendly house walking distance to beach

First the pros: easy to get to off Route 1 and beach is a mile away. Was immaculate when we arrived and had all the basics. Air conditioning was definitely welcome as there were one or 2 very hot days. The cons: in

Enjoyable, pet friendly cottage!

Family and pet friendly cottage on a very nice, quiet street. Cottage is close enough to wonderful beaches, restaurants, places of interest etc, yet far enough to enjoy some peace and quiet too. Having A/C, cable, wifi and a washer/dryer are all a big plus. Lots to do and see in the area!

cozy pet friendly cottage

This cottage is close to all your favorite places: Wells, Ogunquit, Drakes Island, York, Kennebunk Port, etc! We loved that we could bring our little rescue dog because she is not ready for a kennel stay. All beaches except Ogunquit allow dogs on leashes after hours and before prime hours in the a.m. AC worked great and we were able to do our wash in the cottage and hang on the line without going to a laundromat! We cooked a few meals on the grill outside but enjoyed the great seafood establishments in the area. At night we walked to the beach which was only about 15 minutes away. Quiet area at night and friendly neighbors added to our wonderful stay! Thank you Shawn.

Adorable, clean, in a perfect location!

We had a great time in this charming, quiet, relaxing home. We'd love to stay here again. It's close to everything, yet just far enough off the main road that you don't even know there's traffic. Beaches are close enough to walk to if you're up to it. And it's easy to get hooked on the ice cream shop just up the street. All in all a great place to stay!

Really cute and great location

This was our first time staying in Wells and it was wonderful. The house is close to the beach, shopping, mini golf/arcades, and the Wells Harbor. The Trolley stop was just up road so that you could go to Ogunquit or Kittery without having to drive yourself, and the Scoop Deck Ice Cream shop is right up the road (GREAT ice cream - amazing flavors). The Lobster Pound is also within walking distance and the food was great. The house was extremely clean and well kept. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen, while a bit small for our family, was well stocked. Central air had been added, which helped immensely as the weather was very warm. The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors are welcoming. We were able to ride our bikes nightly and we took the dog for long walks on the back streets to the beach. Overall a great time.
