About the host
Hosted by John and Roxanne Molina
Hosted by the Molina's. A couple that lives in Camp Ellis. We try to make our cottage as comfortable as we can for our guests, as we live here as well.
Why they chose this property
Camp Ellis is a bit like an old Village going back into the olden days. There is basically only 1 road into the village that ends up circling around the village and back out. There are about 80 cottages in this area. Some of the lobsterman and fishermen have been here for decades. One will cook them right outside his house for you.
We wanted a place where we could bring our children every summer. They can walk the area with little worry of traffic. They can go to the general store and get an ice cream cone, go crabbing off the jetty or look for sand dollars at low tide.
we couldn't have found a better place in Maine near a beach to raise our family.
Very quiet area in relationship to others like Wells and Ogunquit. 100 people on the beach in the summertime during the week is considered crowded.
What makes this property unique
A nice dead end street, that gets little traffic, yet 900 feet from the beach.
