July 4th and Family reunion

This little cottage was perfect for our party of 6 which includes 3 adults over 40 and 3 adult "kids". The house was clean, furniture was nice, kitchen was equipped and accommodating for cooking large meals. It's not a big house but the roof deck adds some lounging space. It was a very nice cottage.

Perfect Wells Getaway

We had a great week at Patti's home. The property was nicely decorated and super clean. Did not have to do much baby proofing for my two-year-old twins and no stairs inside which is a bonus at this age. You can't beat the location - truly a 5 minute walk to to the beach. It was perfect and we would definitely recommend this property. Thank you!

The roof top deck was a huge bonus. It was perfect for coffee in the morning, and a cocktail in the evening. Patti was extremely responsive before and during the trip if we had any questions.

Moody Beach Cottage

We had a lovely week at Patti's cottage. It is located on a quiet street with spectacular views of the marsh, and a short walk to Moody Beach. The house is well taken care of, spacious, and has everything you need for a comfortable and pleasant stay. The kitchen is well appointed which we really appreciated since we do a lot of cooking. We really enjoyed the roof deck, and we saw beautiful sunsets over the marsh and loved being able to hear the waves crashing from the nearby ocean. We would highly recommend!

We had a great stay! It was even nicer in person than in the photos. Very quiet neighborhood so we did feel like we had to keep it down and make sure the kids or guests didn’t get too loud. It was a nice walk to the beach, convenient to stop over with the kids without having to pack a full car up for the day. Unfortunately the waves were very rough due to storms coming up from the south but we were able to make the most of it. I was a little bit concerned with the beach front property owners giving us a hard time but we didn’t have any issues. We drove to a few different beaches during our stay and it was conveniently located to them. We would definitely stay here again. We felt very at home and it made our stay relaxing.

Great cottage get away

Our family of 6 (3 adults, 3 kids) felt at home in Patti's cottage. It is as described and roomy enough for our large party for 3 nights. The morning dew does get the deck furniture quite moist so remember to bring a towel to wipe off and there is a partially obstructed view of marsh refuge. We hardly sat on the deck as we were out enjoying Wells and Ogunquit. Only comment is beach towels or mats on site would have been an extra special perk! We had a great time and beds were very comfortable. Recommended!

Amazing Vacation

House was perfect, location was perfect, host was perfect! Great vacation. Walk to beach was very short and easy ( even for my 7 year old niece who does not like to walk places). The beach was beautiful and not crowded at all. Many open areas to set up chairs and blankets. Patti was an amazing host left recommendations for places to eat and things to do in the area. Would highly recommend renting this cottage.

A Slice of Heaven

We found this house to accommodate 6 adult family members traveling from Boston and San Francisco to attend an outdoor family wedding in the area. It was perfect. The 3 large bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, and the open floor plan accommodated our family meals perfectly. Two bathrooms and a large well-appointed rooftop deck rounded out our 5 star experience. And we were less than a 5 min walk to the beach. The house was well stocked and we wanted for nothing. It was close to the beach and Route 1 so easy access to all the nearby attractions you may want to see. We would highly recommend it and will definitely keep it on our short list for the next visit. Thank you Patti for being so accessible, accommodating, and allowing our family to reconnect during this unprecedented time.
