Cozy cottage

Overall, this place was fine for a short stay, but it was a bit cluttered with trinkets, there were some toilet issues from the moment we arrived, and one of the bedspreads smelled musty. It was a bit tedious to sort through the host's paperwork before gaining access to the property, too. Hosts were fantastic and responded quickly, though. Great welcome binder in the cottage helped us enjoy a pleasant stay. Well-equipped kitchen. High-quality TV. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Vanessa and Brian

We are Vanessa and Brian, your Beach Dreams hosts. We are central Massachusetts residents, but have adopted Wells as our own "vacationland." We have a girl and a boy and a grouchy kitty named Cotton. We are always happy to answer questions and to share our favorite local recommendations for dining and entertainment with you. We hope that Our Happy Place will become your Happy Place too!

Why they chose this property

Beach Dreams is conveniently located right off Route 1 in Maine, a short from the beach or downtown Ogunquit. The complex offers a large pool, a "kiddie" pool, hot tub, a gameroom, and a gym. Our cottage is recently updated (new pictures coming soon!) and well-appointed, with plenty of movies, games, and puzzles for your family and friends to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the summer nights and al fresco dining on the screened-in porch. The complex has little traffic, which makes it ideal for walking (you can walk down to get your morning coffee and breakfast sandwich from For the Love of Food and Drink at Saltwater Farm) or kids bike-riding (our son learned how to ride a bike on the Beach Dreams paths).
