Dog-friendly cottage with amazing sunset views, across the street from beach
The Eastern Avenue Cottage
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Bask in the breezy, beachy atmosphere of this dog-friendly Wells cottage, a lovely Maine escape with a simple, charming interior, beautiful sunset views of a tidal marsh, and easy walking access to the beach and ocean one block away!
This tidy, single-level cottage sits on the eastern edge of the Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve, just across Atlantic Avenue from the sand and surf of Wells Beach. Take morning walks to watch the lobster boats come and go from Wells Harbor three-quarters of a mile north, spend your afternoons boogie boarding and sunbathing on the ocean beach, and search for hidden treasures in the dozens of antique shops that line Wells' stretch of Route 1 three miles west.
Wake up to the sounds of coastal birds nesting in the neighboring wetlands and brew a fresh pot of coffee in the cozy kitchen. Assemble a homemade fruit salad for breakfast using local Maine blueberries, toss your flip-flops and beach towels in your bag, and spend the morning building sandcastles on Wells Beach. Indulge in a peaceful afternoon nap in the sitting room, and catch an unforgettable sunset over the marsh with a cocktail or a local microbrew in hand. One dog is welcome to come along, though please note our nightly pet fee.
You'll come back to the ease and comfort of this Wells cottage year after year - book your stay in Southern Maine today!
Things to Knowoc
This is an older classic Maine summer cottage. The back yard is the ocean marsh and the marsh waters will go up and down daily with the tide. During inclement weather, the extremely high tides waters may rise to the cottage edge.
If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. No more dogs are allowed.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.
Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 21 years of age to book. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.
