Lovely home with very responsive host. Great vacation!

The house was great. We loved being so close to the Drakes Island beach (possibly our favorite beach in southern Maine). We have stayed in many houses on the Maine coast and this was one of the best for our family.

We took the kids for a few days to Wells to end the school year. There was plenty of room for the kids to spread out. Close walk to the beach. We had a very nice stay

Our family had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful location on Drakes Island! The home was amazing, exceeding our expectations and including everything necessary to have a wonderful week on the coast of Maine. We absolutely loved the beautiful sun room in the back, allowing us to relax and enjoy the beautiful location. We were also able to walk around Drakes Island, being close to the beach and playground which was great with our children. We were also a quick drive to Kennebunkport and Ogunquit, with great access to all of our favorite spots. We would highly recommend this location and hope to come back in the future!

The location is absolutely amazing. Beach is even closer than the picture and the beach is perfect for the family! There is even an awesome nature preserve walk within roughly 1/2 mile. We will absolutely come back. The house itself was perfect for the family and plenty of space.

Have rented many properties on VRBO and I have to say this was by far the cleanest and had all the amenities we needed. We were somewhat short of spoons and Kim from management property delivered them that very day. You will not be disappointed!

The house was perfect for the 8 of us and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. We especially loved the three season room for games and family time in the evening.

Great house
It's a nice house located close to the beach only 2 minutes away. Plenty of space for everyone. Everyone in the community is very friendly. We are looking forward to come back again next year.

The house was exactly as advertised (and even better!). We had such a great time on Drake's Island and the house was a big part of it. It is so close to the beach... literally steps away. And although the water was way too cold for us to swim, the shed had tons of boogie boards and beach chairs for our use. It's such a lovely beach! And the house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. The fire pit and grill in the backyard were also awesome. My kids were SO THRILLED to discover the hidden TV nook in the closet of their room... what a fun treat! And it was also so nice for us adults for the kids to have their own place to chill. My favorite part of the house was the sunroom in the back - what a lovely, peaceful place. The owners were super responsive and very helpful. I would highly recommend this house and would go back in a heartbeat!!

Beautiful Beach Cottage
We had an excellent time and really enjoyed Drake's island. Perfectly central location to get to Kennybunk & Ogunquit. House was very clean and well equipped to host our family and all of our needs. Will stay again!

Property was very clean, well appointed and solid but the proximity to the beach (3 min walk) is by far the best aspect of this property. Just awesome access to a really beautiful beach. Would definitely stay here again.

Quaint but short on supplies
Truly great location and property. It’s was missing some essentials that we were not traveling with, such as coffee filters, salt, pepper, nor bath soap.
Only a one minute walk to Drake Island Beach.
We would stay there again.
