You'll be just over a mile from the beach when you spend your summer vacation at this sweet cottage in Wells. The best of Southern Maine is well within your reach here, from beautiful beaches and charming villages to incredible local seafood pulled right from the ocean.
This single-story home is conveniently located on a small lane off Route 1, with restaurants, shops, groceries, and all sorts of conveniences within blocks. When it comes to beaches, take your pick of Crescent Beach (one mile), Ogunquit Beach (just over two miles), or the beloved beaches of Kennebunkport (eight miles) to start. York, Kittery, and Portsmouth are all within a short, scenic drive as well.
Get up with the sun each morning, sip your first cup of coffee outside on the screened-in porch, and pull a fresh swimsuit and towel from the washer/dryer for a beautiful day at the beach. Upon your return, you'll be greeted by a charming kitchen with exposed wood beams, a breakfast bar where you can set out snacks and cold drinks, and a living room where you can stream movies and play board games late into the evening. Complimentary WiFi is provided for your convenience as well.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Cute little cottage that like going to summer camp cabin. It has a lot of the amenities of home, but needs some TLC. It was quiet, comfortable and nice having coffee on the front screened porch.
The cabin is quaint and very private. The living area and kitchen are rather small, but comfortable. The bedroom was quite nice and the king sized bed was very comfortable. It's in a good location. It's right off Rte. 1 but offers a lot of privacy. The only negative was the TV. If you don't do streaming, you can't access very much on it.Overall, my husband and I enjoyed our stay.
