Wells Beach House

Last place on dead end with wonderful privacy, plenty of parking in quiet neighborhood. House is very nice, tons of space with open concept downstairs. Deck with gas grill was ideal for cookout. There were plenty of beach chairs and boogie boards which was a huge plus as well. Definitely would recommend and would be back again!

Excellent communications with the manager of this location. This property is a perfect home away from home. Our group enjoyed the large adjoining kitchen, living and dining rooms that opened out onto a comfortable back deck with a nice gas grill. The kitchen is very well stocked, lighting and climate control were superb; with options to keep everyone comfortable. I enjoyed the expansive suite over the garage. Sunrise comes early in Maine. Enjoy!

Wonderful Stay

This was a great location and home. Easily accommodated 10 adults from three families. Plenty of room to relax, spread out, or gather together for meals, games, fire pit, etc. House had lots of extras including items for young children, meal prep and dining, beach chairs and sand toys, puzzles and games, televisions, etc. The house never felt crowded- even when local family and friends stopped by for a visit. Always had hot water for showers- amazing since 10 of us stayed in the house. The location was perfect- very convenient to local stores and attractions, in a neighborhood but still had a secluded feeling. Host had great communication, checked on us during stay via phone call to ensure everything was good, checkin and out procedures were easy and reasonable. Will definitely look to rebook in the future.

Fantastic Stay in a Great Location

We had an awesome long weekend in Wells Beach, Maine. The rental was clean, comfortable, welcoming and had lots of room for our party of seven. The house was in a great location. It was close to the ocean and many wonderful restaurants. Ryan was responsive and very friendly with all our communication. We give this beautiful location a five star rating!

Spacious secluded home in a great location. It was perfect for a vacation with my friends and our families with small children. We hope to stay again next year. People had said in previous reviews that the table wasn't big enough, but there is a new table that seats 10 and then stools at the counter.

Perfect Week

The house was everything we expected and then some! It was the perfect size for our family and had everything we could have possible asked for. From the time we chose this location to the day we arrived, everyone we spoke to attended to all of our questions. The location was ideal, close to everything but secluded offering plenty of privacy.

Wonderful Long Weekend

My family had a wonderful weekend at this property in Wells. WE enjoyed all of the space to comfortably accommodate 8 adults and 3 toddlers. The house was extremely clean, centrally located, and had everything we needed! April is a chilly for a ME vacation, but worked for all of us. We can only imagine how wonderful this house is in peak summer season. Thank you!

Spacious, clean, Great Location

My wife and I stayed at this location, along with 3 other couples for a local triathlon. There was plenty of room for all of us, even with all our bikes, and gear we brought along with us. The house was very clean and comfortable to stay in. While unfortunately we didn't get to use the back deck and fire pit, this was a great plus. Great location only 5 minutes from the highway, and right off the main road. The listing owner also had great communication with us which made renting very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

Very Clean

Although the inside was a little dated, it was extremely clean. There was lots of room for the whole family. It was great that there was four half baths, I did think there was going to be one more shower. Only two showers for whole family was a little difficult, coming from the beach. It was nice that the whole family was able to eat together at the enormous dining table, and the kitchen was stocked with all of the pans necessary for our lobster feast. We also enjoyed hanging in the living room all together. The kids were very excited with all the chipmunks, squirrels, and the deer that showed up on the property, It definitely, however, was not walking distance to the beach and one of the bedrooms did not have a TV. If in the area, I would stay at this location again.

Wells weekend getaway

We enjoyed our weekend stay, the house is very spacious and clean. It is tucked away at end of a cul-de-sac and the trees around it give it a great sense of privacy. Conveniently located close to the beaches in Wells and Kennebunkport. The property manager is very friendly and responsive. Only caveat is you have to pay an extra fee for beddings and towels.

Awesome place for a staycation

While searching for a perfect vacation rental to spend time with family and friends during kids' spring break, we came across this property. This is a gem of a property. The location, the property size, number of rooms, and amenities, everything were spot on. Especially, the kitchen and the dinner place were huge. We enjoyed spending every moment there. If we ever come to Wells again, we will surely rebook this property. Highly recommended.

Overall great stay

We vacationed at this home with a large, mixed ages family. Overall the experience was good. It was a great house for a large family. However, the mattresses on all the beds were extremely uncomfortable. They all need to be replaced. We were so uncomfortable we left a night early. Also the listing is very misleading for the bathrooms. There are only 2 showers for 12 people. That was a little surprising. Ryan was a great communicator throughout the entire process.
