"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 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!

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!

Beach Trip

I initially rented the house thinking that my daughter, husband and baby might come and I could make good use of house's three bedrooms and three baths. Though they didn't come, my wife, myself and our cocker spaniel enjoyed thoroughly the spaciousness of the house. Besides the bedrooms and baths, the first floor has a sizeable, well-stocked kitchen that opens to the dining and living room area. Although it was a little to cool to use, there is a private patio with gardens off the living room. To me, one of the most important feature of the house were the wall-mounted HVac units in each of the bedrooms and living area. However, not being a techie, I had to call Tom when I was unable to turn on the heat. In five minutes he was at the door and patiently showed me how easy it was to work the units. My wife wanted me to stress how much we enjoyed meeting Tom - definitely a great host.- and how clean the house was. We were fortunate to find a great house and host and will definitely rent the house again when in the area.

Spectacular patio!

Very clean and beautiful home. Everything you could possibly need for a vacation rental -3 bedroom, 3 bath, outdoor shower, patio with 8 seat table and shade umbrella, plus both gas and wood fire pits and an outdoor grill! Dog friendly with fenced in yard and located in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. If that isn’t enough the hosts (Tom and Steve) are only a phone call away and would be more than willing to come over in person to address any concerns or questions you might have. Really cannot say enough about our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice vacation getaway.

Wonderful Wells welcome

The property was beautiful and the host was incredibly responsive, polite and prompt to answer any questions we had. The house and garden/yard is absolutely breathtaking and it really had all of the amenities that are needed to feel at home (plus more)! We brought so many things with us and we did not have to use a majority of them as items were provided (pack & play, high chair, towels, toiletries and even dog toys). The host went out of his way and even bought an audio baby monitor for us to use if we chose. Overall a wonderful experience

Shore to Please is a Gram Slam

Our stay was sensational. Upon entry the property was clean, neat, open and bright. A variety of sweet and salty treats came in handy. Upon arrival we were hungry. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard, small lily pond and the two smal frogs that lived there. The dogs loved watching the frogs. The patio area is a delight. BBQ grill, propane fire pit and comfortable patio furniture. It’s a very quiet neighborhood and a good place to walk the dogs. The location is convenient to Wells, Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Ogonquit and York. The beds were very very comfortable. The owner Tom was very communicative both prior, during and after our stay. You can’t go wrong staying here because it’s “Shore to Please.”
