Just perfect! Location was great and the house had great accommodations.
Our family of five really enjoyed spending the week here. The property was very clean and had all of the amenities we could want. This place is quite close to the beach, just a minute or two by foot. The interior spiral staircase would be a challenge for little ones or those with mobility issues. One detail that we really appreciated was that the screens to the two sliding doors and all of the windows in the house were in very good condition, so we were able to enjoy the ocean breeze all week without any bugs flying into the house. We look forward to staying here again next summer!
One of our favorite places to vacation, Kris's home and excellent communication makes it a joy! Can't wait to come back next year.
We had a great time visiting Wells Beach this year and had an amazing stay here. You are across the street from the beach, takes less than a minute to get to, it was so easy to go to and from, especially with 2 toddlers! You are also right on the beautiful marsh, so you get the best of both worlds. The wrap around deck is gorgeous and you have great views of the marsh. The kitchen was fully stocked and the appliances were in great condition. It was a perfect family trip, definitely recommend!
Great rental! Short walk to the beach, beautiful sunset views and everything else you need for a wonderful week at the beach. Love the outdoor shower. The air conditioning came in handy, as did the washer and dryer. The owner was really great too! Will be renting this house again!
We loved our stay. The beach is steps away. The outdoor shower is great for rinsing off before going inside. The accommodations worked perfectly for my family of 4 plus aunts and uncles. The sunset views over the marsh are incredible. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need without having too much. Kris is wonderful if there’s anything you need during your stay. All good things!
The home is very comfortable with 2 balconies offering nice views on the river-marsh... The walk to be main beach is only 150 steps. Neighbours were friendly and quiet. The owner is concerned about client satisfaction. I recommend it.
Just steps to the beach for morning walks, hanging out at the beach during the day, and we were treated to an amazing moon rising. The decks allowed us to be outside, even if the weather wasn’t exactly perfect. Great space inside too. We enjoyed grilling and outdoor dining. So many great spaces on this property.
We had the best family weekend! So cozy and relaxing. Everything we needed was right there. We even found a sand dollar on the beach!
Stayed with my wife and three-year old daughter as well as my mother (72 y.o.) for a week. The good: Excellent communication from host The place was very clean Kitchen has everything you could need and more. You don’t need to bring much with you. Beds are surprisingly comfy for a Maine cottage Location is very good, across the street from beach access. Total time to sand from door about 2 mins walking Good parking, even for big vehicles. Our Escalade fit right in The not so good The spiral stairs can be a bit tricky for young children or older guests. Can get a bit hot on the main level. Overall I would highly recommend and would stay again.
Wonderful
The location was great, close to beach, quick and easy to go back for lunch. View of the marsh was nice and neighborhood was quiet. House had great spaces inside and out and had everything you needed. Kris checked in to make sure everything was good and to see if we needed anything. Would stay here again!
A cute little property just a few steps from Wells Beach. What more can I say? Our trip had been delayed a year due to COVID restrictions but happy we could make our trip happen this year. The property owner has been awesome to deal with. Check in was excellent and check out too was really easy. Great views of the marsh. Easy parking. Lots of beach items stored up outside in case you forget anything. A ton of sitting areas from the second floor deck to all around the property on the ground level.
We recently stayed at Kris' beach house and had a wonderful stay with our 2 young children and 4 extended family members. The space had everything we needed without have too much of what we didn't. There was the perfect balance of home and retreat. Even when inside we alwasys felt like we were at the beach thanks to the great veiws of the marsh and the open design of the space. We also enjoyed the outdoor space of the house. With three patios spaces and two deck sitting areas, there was a space for everyone! Proximity to the beach walks was also great. Just a short 2 minute walk to two beach walk options. We will definitely be back!
This is our second year staying at Robert Lane in Wells, continently located right by public way #9, on a beautiful dead end road. The views of the marsh and sometimes even sounds of the waves create a great setting for your oceanside vacation. The house is beautifully decorated with great outdoor sports for eating, hanging out, playing both in and out of the sun. The outdoor shower adds a third shower option which was great for the younger kids and older a like! Comfy beds, well appointed kitchen, plenty of kids toys and beach items, roku so you can log in to your favorite streaming services, and I'm sure much much more that I am forgetting right now. We can't wait to come back next year! Thanks Kris!
We had a splendid week. The property is comfortable inside and out. Plenty of space for outside dining as well as indoor space to lounge. Great porches, steps to the beach and easy walk to Casino Square.
Had a great time, beach was close to the house, and beautiful. Lot of really nice restaurants near by.
We enjoyed the beach and the surrounding area. Gran kids didn't want to leave.
