About this property

30 SECONDS TO BEACH: OCEAN VIEWS:HEAR THE SURF: THAT CLOSE: 8-15 to 8-22 OPEN

Stay on the Beachside of Atlantic Ave at Wells Beach. The convenience of beach access with this home is remarkable. The square footage of our home is about 725, but the whole small house is yours . Three upstairs bedrooms and 1 upstairs bathroom with Marsh views and even a little bedroom ocean view as well. If you are looking for super beach access and a small house that is all yours for your week, than this is it. Out your front door, along the right side of the beach house and onto the beach! Could not be easier beach access. Easy in and out parking for two mid sized cars alongside Atlantic Ave and right next to the house. (All stays contingent on receipt of signed rental agreement)

We are second time renters w/ David & Rebecca, first time at this location. Both locations we have stayed at I always appreciate the details- fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and furniture, lovely decor. The house was nicely updated but still had some of its older charm. We loved the porch- a nice place to see the ocean or watch the cars go by while enjoying the marsh view.We couldn’t have asked for a better place or a better stay, I highly recommend this adorable home by the sea!

Property was very clean. Small but so perfect for 3 people, the owner really made the most of the space. Literally walk out your door, and you are at the beach. Owner was responsive to a few minor issues. Will go back.

Great Spot

Great little spot on Wells Beach and a super convenient location to bop around the neighboring towns or take a longer drive up to Portland. The cabin was as described in the listing and could not be more perfect for a getaway. David is super attentive and a gracious host.

Quaint beach cottage - perfect location

The house is in a perfect location. We sat on the porch listening to the waves. The house is as described - small and very well equipped. Within walking distance to restaurants and quaint shops. Located in a residential section of the beach so not a lot of crowds. We would certainly consider going back.

Birthday Getaway

Every spring we go away for my birthday. We chose Maine this year because we hadn’t been up here in over 20 years so we gave it a shot. The location was great. Didn’t realize it was race weekend but we enjoyed cheering on the runners. Will definitely book again if we choose to return to the area.

Perfect location

This stay was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 1 little one under 2. Such a peaceful location. Super quick walk to the little downtown of Wells, and incredibly easy beach access. The cottage was small but turned out to be the perfect size for what we needed, and was very clean and comfortable. Make sure you bring your own bedsheets and towels! It clarifies this in the rental agreement and we just missed it, but the hosts did a great job accommodating our last minute needs. Will definitely be staying here again.
