"Shore To Please" Wells, Maine. All the comforts of home. 3 bed, 3 bath, ac ++

We purchased this home in November of 2023 and live in it 7 or so months of the year and rent from mid-May through mid-October. Our home is on a quiet street about a mile from the ocean (as the gulls fly). Our patio and yard are a private, peaceful, fenced-in garden setting where you can always hear birds and sometimes hear the ocean. There is a small stream behind our home that leads to a pond down the street. The property is on a street directly off of Rte. 1, close to everything in Wells, and a great central location halfway between nearby Ogunquit and Kennebunkport.

Each of the three bedrooms has a full bathroom to go with it. The family living area is perfect for relaxing or watching tv on a 65 inch tv. The living and dining space are an open concept to the kitchen and to the patio through large french doors that let in lots of natural light. The kitchen is updated with freshly painted cabinets, brand new appliances, and beautiful quartz countertops and is equipped with all of the cooking tools you'll need. The patio just outside the living room has a fire pit with 4 Adirondack chairs and wood and propane options, a 3-burner Weber grill, and an outside table with seating for 8.

As dog owners ourselves, we are a dog-friendly (2 dog limit, pet fee is $100 per stay) rental with a fenced-in yard. Everything in the yard is available for your use--outdoor table and chairs, fire pit, Weber grill, raised garden beds with herbs and vegetables (in season). We also provide 4 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and beach towels as well as bed linens and bath towels.

Shore to Please is in a convenient location in the center of Wells, and equidistant from Ogunquit and Kennebunkport. The property is about a 5-minute drive to Wells Beach and Drakes Island Beach parking. It is also 5 miles to Ogunquit Village and Beach and to Kennebunkport in the other direction. Within Wells, Hobbs Harborside, The Steakhouse, Billy's Chowder House. Congdon's Doughnuts, Mike's Clam Shack, Maine Diner, Batson River Fish Camp, Seacoast Pizza, Litchfield's, The Bitter End, and Feile Irish Pub are all 5 minutes or less away. Hannaford and CVS are 1 mile away.

We are local even during our rental season, and available for your questions and needs that may arise. We look forward to welcoming you!

An excellent stay for a group of 6 adults and one small dog. The property was very clean, well equipped and the owner was very responsive. The backyard patio was lovely and if the weather had been better we would have spent more time there. The location is great - quiet but close to everything. They even left a welcome gift! It was perfect!

We loved every minute of our stay! The house had everything we needed, the hosts gave very detailed directions about literally everything (how to work the garbage disposal, where to find s’more sticks) and it’s in the perfect location (a few minutes drive to all the good stuff in Wells). The attention to detail was exceptional, we had a warm welcome when we checked in, lights on, ice water for humans and dogs, a thoughtful welcome gift. This was great “home away from home” for my family with two kids under 5, my pup and husband and I. We are looking forward to our next stay here!

We had a wonderful stay at this centrally located home! It was beautiful AND pet-friendly! Not only neat and clean, it was peaceful and quiet, yet close to beaches and routes to wherever we wanted to explore. The kitchen is well-appointed and had everything we needed (we didn't have to run to a store for ANYTHING!). The French patio doors that opened from the LR gave a beautiful view to the perfectly-sized land/hardscaped outdoor area, complete with flowerbeds, dining area, fire pit, and grill. This part of the back area is fenced-in, which is something we required. The choice of bedroom locations was convenient for our group - plus there was a little cozy 'reading' area if you needed some alone space. The indoor dining table is large - it became our central location for most meals and board-game marathons (there are a TON of games for your use). Our host, Tom, was readily available and very personable, and provided us a comprehensive list of area attractions, restaurants, stores, and facilities. Highly recommend this home!

The Host, Tom was always helpful and the details provided prior to our stay was very helpful for planning our outings. I also want to share his honesty when he found an ipad and watch that was left behind. He reached out and made great effort to get those back to my wife and mother-in-law. Can say enough about how appreciative we were for Tom to let us use his beautiful property.

Everything was just as advertised, it's a beautiful home and they have done a great job in making sure you have everything you need. The beds were comfortable. The heating and cooling worked perfectly as well as all the appliances. We loved the patio with the fire pit. They even had wood and fire starters there for us. It was so refreshing not to have to run around looking for firewood. They even had an herb garden that we could go out and grab a couple things on the days we were cooking. It's a great place and I wouldn't hesitate to rent again.

Beyond a 5 star rating! We loved everything about this property and its owners. It was a perfect house for 3 couples. The house is beautifully decorated and the gardens are gorgeous. Everyone loved the patio/firepit area, which was conducive to family gatherings. The information booklet, which I find non-existent in many properties, details everything you want or need to know. Communication with the owners was easy and responses were speedy. Pet friendly! We would absolutely book with these owners again.

Great long weekend

We had a wonderful experience. It started with having the lights turned on for us as we arrived late at night, followed by the pleasant surprise of snacks and wine. The house was clean, inviting and well stocked. We really appreciated the little extras like chargers, Bluetooth speaker and luggage racks in each room. Tom was very organized by sending a manual with follow up videos. I would stay here again!
