Lovely stay

We had a wonderful time at the beached whale. There was an issue with the front door code when we got there so we had to use the house key instead, but that was fine. House was very clean and comfortable. We would stay again!

Excellent vacation home for our family

We loved this home for our annual beach trip! The house is clean, well stocked, and comfortable. It easily accommodated our family of four and our in laws. We loved the outdoor space as well, and the proximity to the beach and other attractions was perfect. We will definitely be booking this again in the future.

Great stay in Wells, Maine

We were in Maine to move an ailing family member. It was nice to be able to relax in a quiet, comfortable home instead in a hotel. The house was comfortable, well equipped, and conveniently located.

Property was perfect for our 2 adult children and my wife and I to spend a relaxing weekend in Wells. Clean, new and comfortable, it was really the best accommodations we have had in some time for the price. Would absolutely recommend this property.

House was beautifully decorated, accommodating, clean, cozy and spacious. Vacasa made every so easy too from booking, arrival and departure! Close by to the main Ogunquit attractions but yet tucked away where you can have peace, quiet and privacy

Incredible stay in Wells!

Wow, this house has everything you need to make your stay in Wells memorable. In fact we ended up extending our stay an additional night because we loved it so much! The house was very clean, included so many nice amenities, and the outdoor shower was perfect for washing off the sand! The layout of the house is comfortable, enough linens and towels, fully stocked kitchen with 2 coffee pots (Keurig and standard), beautifully decorated, comfortable beds and living room furniture. Everything was great! We can’t wait to come back again!

The house was exceptionally clean and well stocked. The location was convenient. The outdoor shower was a unique addition to this home. It is worth noting, this is what makes it 2 full bathrooms. We would definitely stay again.
