Our week at Cozi Cottage was a memorable experience. Everything, from the storybook location (just steps from the beach) to the well-equipped kitchen and roomy shower was first rate. We especially enjoyed the second floor, ocean-view deck and the 24/7 roar of the waves. This is a perfect vacation destination!

We loved the sweet Cozi Cottage and felt completely comfortable and at home there. Moody Beach and Wells in general are so much calmer and quieter than neighboring Ogunquit or Kennebunkport. The direct access to the beach was great, and the beach itself was easily walkable. We saw two shooting stars the first night! I would definitely come to Cozi Cottage again for another relaxing mini vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Lori Gallivan

Host profile image
I own the property with two close friends. We love it here and thought others would love it just as much!

Why they chose this property

This is such a special place. I don't know what I love more, falling asleep to the sound of the waves or waking to the beautiful sunrise!

What makes this property unique

The Private Beach is what's most amazing. There are 4 homes on our property and only those occupying the 4 homes can use the beach all the way down to the water. You'll never want to go to a public beach again!
