About this property

Steps from the ocean, listening to the surf at night. Getaway includes 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, open concept living room and kitchen table. An outdoor deck provides a small window to the ocean and an outdoor living space. Parking is available for two cars. The area is wonderful to enjoy. While you venture out, take a trip to Condon's for brunch and Mimosas, or enjoy a nice lunch at Billy's Chowder House overlooking the beautiful tidal river. Have a relaxing dinner at Verano's restaurant or skip down to Ogunquit and go all out. The Marginal Way is a beautiful spot to take someone special for a quiet walk overlooking the rocky Maine coast, and take a seat and reflect on life and how much simpler it could be for at least a few days. I hope you love the place as much as I love it, as this will be my forever home.

Disappointing

We were really disappointed to find a very major construction project going on right next door… there was a crew working daily with cranes and bobcats, and generators were going 24/7 to support sump pumps. Needless to say, we didn’t use the deck (which overlooks the whole mess) nor did we want windows or shades open.

Quiet and clean

A lovely one bedroom down a quiet lane. Nice outdoor seating area to enjoy sounds of the beach. Clean and comfy. The AC was cold; a big deal for us southerners in the summer. Would come back again and again.

Perfect place to relax

I rented this quaint apartment for my parents so they can come and spend the week with us in Moody Beach. it was perfect: clean, open concept floor plan, and a great location. The only downfall was the lack of A/C in the whole apt - the listing says there is A/C but it was only in the bedroom and despite all efforts to air the place down, it was SO HOT a few days which was not great for my mother with a heart condition. This said, we loved the apt and would recommend it to anyone who doesn't need a very cool place to be!

Perfectly Comfy

The place was light, bright and clean with all the conveniences of home. Our host was very responsive and it was obvious that he actively manages the property. There is something about the second level that makes it seem you are away from it all. The ocean is visible from one window at a distance and the sound of it was easily heard. In warmer weather I imagine the large east facing deck would be very pleasant. Our temps were 30-40s. We walked the gorgeous beach (you’ll have to start at the public opening, which is not too far from the beach house.) We also enjoyed the beauty of the tidal river and marsh side.. The jetty walk was worth the short drive (northernmost point of island). There are quite a few antique places in Wells with pretty good prices. It is conveniently located near many restaurants right in Wells but also Ogunquit. It was a great way to experience “winter” Maine.

Birthday for my husband

This property was absolutely beautiful, it must be an amazing place in the summer as the location is perfect. The unit was spotless, and the neighborhood was spectacular. I would definitely come back here again, hopefully Midsummer when I can utilize the beaches.

This is our 3rd Summer, renting this property. We absolutely love it! The apartment is well stocked and the owner is easy to reach and responds quickly, to any questions you might have. Lots of stores and restaurants, very close by. This is a 2nd floor apartment, just perfect for 2. However, the downstairs is much bigger, I highly recommend renting this property. We can’t wait for next year! Thank you Gerald, for another great vacation! Cheryl

The Beauty Of Maine

We had the upstairs of the house all to ourselves and it was more then perfect! Enjoyed our stay so much,that we will be returning next year. The owner of the house,Jed, was very nice and personable as well. The area is just breathtaking, and there are many places to go walking and exploring! Loved opening up the windows and just hearing the sound of the ocean and feeling the ocean breeze. The sunrise and sunset are just a fine example of how blessed we really are. And the food in Maine is just exceptional!The Greenery Cafe, Clay Hill Farm, Merriland Farm Cafe ,Maine Diner,Lobster Pound. Definitely come here...it's worth it!

Perfect location

My husband and I rented this house for our one year anniversary. We absolutely loved it. It was so cute, peaceful, and a five minute walk from the beach. We were very impressed with the binder with all of the recommendations for places to visit and dine while there. Gerald was very communicative from the minute we booked the trip. We would definitely rent this place again in the future! It was our first trip to Maine ever and definitely won’t be our last!

Such a perfect location

The location was central to everything and the fact that it was a short walk to the beach was the best. It was very clean and comfortable and there were no issues at all. If I ever make it back to Maine (fingers crossed), I would definitely stay here again.

Happy Georgians

When my husband walked in the place he declared "You can ALWAYS pick where we stay!" (It was much bigger than it looked in the photos.) Very clean & all the supplies we needed. We'd definitely come back again, if we're in that area! We Georgians thought we'd "die" without air conditioning, but with it being on top floor, and the sea breezes coming through the windows, we were very comfortable. (And the ice cream truck came on that street every day we were there.) Lauren Newman

Awesome little getaway!

My friend and I stayed at this property for a couple day getaway. We were astounded with how clean the house was and how it had all essentials. we spent much time at the beach (a short walk from the house) and on the deck that gets amazing morning and day sun. We are hoping to make it a tradition and come back soon!
