Sarah the owner was lovely to work with. She was very responsive and respectful in all of our communications.
We had never before vacationed in Maine so we were unfamiliar with the town of Wells and Mile Road. We felt a little misled by the description and the reviews. The main purpose for this review is to give another perspective of staying here with children. We have two young daughters, ages 4 and 6. They are happy and excited souls and often they dance and skip. The unit is on the second floor and we got a noise complaint from all the happy jumping. We respectfully did our best to squelch their enthusiasm but it saddened us to ask our girls not to dance. (Additionally, the tenants below that complained were seemingly rebelling by played heavy-metal music and, what sounded like video-game playing, into the wee hours of the morning.)
In terms of location and walkability: many reviewers raved about the walk to the beach. It’s true, many beach goers walk this stretch of Mile Road but with our two young children, the busy road did not feel safe to walk. There are no sidewalks from the condo to the beach and it’s a very busy road.
Also, although there is a patio set on the deck, it’s noisy with many other tenants in the complex, and being right on Mile Road (passing traffic). It was not the respite we anticipated.
If you are traveling without children, it would likely be a much different experience. Like I said, the owner was lovely. It just wasn’t what we were looking for.
