About the host

Host profile image
My daughter Addison and I started visiting the Wells area when she was just 1 year old and we have returned each summer. In 2017, we were thrilled at the opportunity to purchase our own place where we can unwind, forget the stress of the world, and get back to what matters most - quality time with family. We invite you to our cottage and hope your family enjoys it as much as we do! -Kris

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this home for the proximity to both the marsh and the ocean, while being set back from the main road. The outdoor living spaces are so inviting. Inside, the comfort, cleanliness, and serene views captivated me. I could feel the love, laughter and enjoyment from families coming together here in the past and look forward to sharing this home for other families to enjoy, too.
