It was a last minute trip and so happy I found this house. Beach was close and quiet for an early June visit and Billy restaurant was so close and great food. Will be visiting again.

Great view, cute house.
We had a great stay at the Salt box. It feels very coastal with views of the inlet, and short drive to the beach. It is also close to all amenities you might need, and many good restaurants. Had an overall great stay.

Quick getaway
Great cottage in Wells with centralized location and access to Rt. 1 to go north towards Kennebunk or south to Ogunquit. Quiet neighborhood with a great view of the marsh out the front windows. 3 good sized bedrooms and livings spaces. Worked well for a winter weekend, but I am sure it is even better during the summer months.

Family vacation
This home is sparkling clean and very comfortable. The decor is quaint and we loved the Maine theme throughout. The location is great! The host is very responsive. We loved being able to bring our dogs!
