WELLS BEACH HOUSE: "THE GULL"

If location is important to you this is your type of vacation home. This beautiful bright beach house is located on a quiet dead end road just steps from the beach. The house is perfect for a group coming to have fun and relax during the summer. There is a yard that's great for barbecuing, throwing a frisbee around, or simply relaxing. Maine's Hidden Cove Brewery just happens to be 1 mile from the home, as well as the delicious Congdon's Donuts. There are lots of great restaurants around the area and fun places to get ice cream after! "The Gull" is fondly named by our grandparents, who saw a seagull sitting on the house during their first stay. If you have any questions please contact me at anytime! -Dave

Excellent Location
The space was perfect for my family (2 adults, 2 kids), my brother, sister in law and mother. The kitchen and dinning area were great for getting together after a day at the beach, shopping or visiting. Although the cottage is not a new build, it is clean, is well stocked with dishes, towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, cleaning supplies. The owner called us prior to our stay to let us know the cottage was ready and gave a courtesy call to let us know someone would come by and cut the grass. Very much walking distance from the larger Wells Beach area. Plus the weather was fantastic. Would not hesitate to return.

Needs Help
Although the location was great this cottage needed a lot of work to make it better looking. The outside had missing shingle and lots of wood rot. The bathrooms both indoors and the outside shower were in severe need of updating. All the faucets leaked as well as the downstairs toilet. The outside shower’s back wall was moldy and dirty. The location is outstanding and the kitchen and dining area were in decent shape. We loved the front porch and the kids enjoyed the cable tv. So if you can put up with dirty leaky bathrooms than you will love this cottage.

Great location/great layout
We loved the location of this rental! Such easy access to a quiet part of Wells Beach. The kitchen and dining area was spacious and didn’t even feel crowded for our family of 8! I didn’t give it 5 stars for a few reasons. The house could use a good paint job and some general upkeep. The house was a little messy, as extra sheets and blankets, etc. were just stuffed in drawers and dressers. The only full bath is located inconveniently in relation to the bedrooms. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the location is amazing.

It’s our Happy Place!
We have been going to this perfect small house for years. It suits our needs and the beach is within walking distance, right down the short street! The house does need the bathrooms updated but there’s air conditioning in most rooms (thanks Dave) and it’s clean and inviting. And quite charming. We just love it.

Darling little cottage with a great back yard for lounging or playing with the kids. Out door shower was perfect after a day on the beach.

great stay!
We had a great time at this house! Dave was so easy to communicate with, the house was clean, and perfect for our group ranging in age from 2-45. We found a spot on the beach that didn’t disappear at high tide. But even when we were done, the yard space was great to hang out in for the kids. Neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Even on July 4 the fireworks ended at 10. The ACs in the windows were great for the kids. The only two things I wish we had were black out curtains for the rooms the kids slept in (everyone up at 530! haha) and twinkle lights for the porch. Extremely minor suggestions though overall. We could not have asked for a better vacation!

A little disappointed
The listing says there is an outdoor shower which was one of the factors in choosing this house because I LOVE outdoor showers. Unfortunately, upon arriving it was clearly obvious the shower had been out of commission for quite some time as the pieces were completely disconnected and the door was laying inside the shower. The only shower in the house is very outdated and if you are over 5' 5" forget taking a comfortable shower because you will be staring down at the shower head. The knobs spew water out as soon as you turn them. The beds are decently comfortable thank goodness. The location is great other than the beach dissappears at high tide which really wasn't an issue for us. The couch is super comfy. The kitchen is decently sized. Room for a few people to move around at once. Aside from the less than ideal shower situation, it is a very nice property just in need of some TLC. The porch is very nice as well especially with the cross breeze when the windows are open!
