Cozy campus vibe
We jumped from Oqunguit to Kinnebunkport on our stay and this was a nice in-between. Pups being allowed was a plus and the owners were very kind. Don't expect anything over the top; the place is old but has everything you need and is quite cozy! Beach front (albeit a private beach) is a 15-20 min walk and another 10 min up along the coast gets you to a gorgeous view without houses. Some pretty marshes along the way. fun walk with the pups. pup friendly beaches up along the coast as well.

a bad experience
Arrival was easy and we had access to the property before check-in time, which accommodated us, very good first contact with Bob who welcome us. There was no washer or dryer as mentioned in the ad. There were dozens of large ants throughout the apartment and the sleep was difficult as the rooms are on the side of a busy road. We were prepared to accept this given the low cost of the rental. We had booked for 5 people despite the fact that there were 6 of us (2 adults and 4 children), since my youngest sleeps with my partner and me at night, as we always do in hotels or while using other hosting platforms. on the evening of our second night out of three, one of the owners aggressively called us out on his frustration. In his eyes, we had lied about the rental and : "was not happy about it". We never had a chance to explain and find a solution. He simply vented his rage on us and left. It was the second time that day, that his behavior was questionable, he made some comments about the fact that my kids where loud the evening before (after 6 hours of driving...) and that some customer at his shop complain about it... despite the fact that we didn't see a lot of customer on the rainy day. We didn't feel safe for the rest of the evening not knowing what he was capable of. We offered via the VRBO application to leave in exchange for a refund of our last night's stay, which he refused. We still left the next morning, as our own safety was the priority at that time.

We love the big yellow house - it's in the right location
We stay here two or three times a year. It's convenient to my in-laws and our two puppies love it. This year my sister joined us and she loved it too!

About the host

Host profile image
Wheels N Waves has been in business since 1974 and is Maine's oldest surf shop. In 2013 Wheels N Waves was named Maine's Best Surf Shop by Downeast Magazine.
In 2011 after many years of renting, we were able to purchase this great new location, which has a 2 bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor. In 2013 we opened our 2nd location in downtown Ogunquit and walking distance to Ogunquit Beach. The Ogunquit location is smaller, but still offers rentals and sales of most things we offer in Wells.
