Celebrating 60 in Wells Beach

This home finished in1886 is very true to its era with a framed document stating such. There is also an album of generations of the original family sharing their time and selling to a new family in the 80’s. Windows redone, some newer appliances and the original wide plank hardwood floor intact. Truly a joy to stay and watch the sunrise diagonally across the street at 6:40am every day. My family enjoyed the wraparound front porches and relaxed there often. Thank you,

Beautiful location

Views were awesome. House is older but kept well. Only complaints were the mattresses and lack of trash barrels. The one bin was full when we got there so we had to leave the garbage in green bags The mattresses are old and not easy to sleep on. Otherwise we had an awesome time. Great for a family. We would definitely stay there again but for a longer time.

A wreck in progress

We arrived with a 10 digit keypad entry code for what turned out to be a 4-wheeled lock box. Vacasa (who is like another $$ middle man between VRBO and guest) managed to figure out the lockbox code after 10 minutes. Outside trash was overflowing, carpets stained, several dishes chipped or cracked, afraid to sit on some of the chairs for fear they might collapse. And although it says parking for 3, it’s really only for 2 stacked. The “3rd” spot behind the house is not wide enough for a car to avoid driving over neighbor’s irrigation. We were told there was a second lockbox with another key, but we never saw it, and the back porch was so musty it was unusable. Needs a major rehab for the money.

Sweet ocean views!

Very nice views right near the ocean! Air conditioning (maybe a unit for downstairs and options for upstairs would be nice). We were there when it was very hot so it was a little too steamy for our crew. Need screens for kitchen - really a must.

Weekend at the Ocean

We were in town for my parents’ 60th anniversary party. Since our family has now outgrown their house, we had to rent something. It was absolutely perfect. I grew up in this town and have always loved the ocean but we never had the luxury of living on it. Hearing the waves at night and sipping morning coffee with a picturesque view from the enclosed porch was beyond amazing. Everything was as stated in the listing. Checking in and out was a breeze. And the place was really clean and comfortable. Hope to return one day soon!

Quirky with a view!

Old cottage with charm right in the Atlantic. Loved hearing the waves as I drifted to sleep. According to the sign posted in the home, the cottage was built around 1888! Obviously it’s experienced some love, and wear and tear over the years. Cozy and welcoming.
