WELLS BEACH HOUSE: THE GULL

We came here for Labor Day weekend for a family wedding. The house and location were perfect. House was very clean and there were more than enough supplies (kitchen items, soap, tp, towels, etc). Host was more than accommodating when we reached out about check in. Great stay, would stay here again!

Nice house a short walk from beach. Kitchen and dining room easily accommodated 6 people. Outdoor shower was great after the beach. Primary bedroom was great size but other bedrooms are small with limited space to store clothes and luggage.

The house is in a great location a 2 minute walk to Wells Beach. We went back and forth all day long. There is an ice cream shop, restaurant, surf shop and arcade all with 5 min walk. Our kids ventured out on their own to get ice cream and play at the arcade. It is a 10 minute drive to plenty of restaurants and shopping. The house itself is older but very clean. There are three bedrooms upstairs and a small one downstairs with bunkbeds. The living room and dining room have plenty of space for a big family. I loved the porch and spend most mornings out there. There is a downstairs shower and and outdoor shower. The bathroom upstairs is only a half bath. We had a great stay and enjoyed the house very much.

Great house in a great location. Many amenities included and comfortable beds make for a perfect vacation

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.

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.

Gorgeous location

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.

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.
