About this property

Zephyr- Quiet cottage on the marsh, shopping, beaches, eats and more

Simple, yet beachy Cottage located on a large grassy lot at the end of a private Dead End Road bordering the Rachel Carson wildlife sanctuary.
Spectacular views of the sanctuary on three sides and only a short walk to the beach. A short walk to me is about 3 to 5 minutes. Your choice (Crescent or Wells Beach), both are the same distance away.
Zephyr cottage has a gas grill and a large porch for your outdoor enjoyment. The cottage has a large deck, patio furniture and plenty of room for parking.

Cute little cottage stay
We had a great time! The cottage was cute and we enjoyed walking to the beach and exploring the area. We were lucky to see two beautiful sunsets over the marsh. Make sure to bring sheets and towels for your visit. We did bring them but it is not clear on the property information. Our first trip to Maine and it's amazing!

Host profile image
Our family grew up summers in Ogunquit, coming to the ocean year after year. We finally decided to buy here in Wells. Our commitment to you is to create an environment where you feel at home. When we travel we like to feel taken care of, and we open our home to you so that you can feel that same way. We still stay in Ogunquit each summer with our family. We take full responsibility for our home, care and repairs to flowers on your table.

Why they chose this property

Wells Beach...has so much to offer. It is a true family beach. From tide pools to ocean waves. Surfing to Stand-Up paddle boarding to kayaking. Wine drinking on the porch, beer drinking as you cook on the grill, to coolers filled for the beach. Enjoy the sunrise in the morning and sunset at night. Each day is complete, each day is so very different ...yet it is always restful, always peaceful and always a memory. I hope you feel that way too.

What makes this property unique

* Rachel Carson Wildlife Preserve
*4 public beaches to pick from...find a new beach each day
*kayaking from the front yard
*large spacious porch
*Quiet side street..quiet morning walks along the beach shore
*Near by restaurants in walking distance
