Great Cottage Away from Ogonquit Traffic

The cottage was clean and well maintained in a lovely community. It was close enough to Ogonquit without being in the midst of the crowds. Vanessa was wonderful with communication and even mailed back an item that we left behind. I would highly recommend this property to family and friends and would definitely stay there again the next time I am in the area.

Pretty beach decor. The three of us had our own space to sleep and we loved the sunroom for early morning breakfast and games at night. We had everything we needed. Thank you.

Relaxing Beach Vacation

This place was perfect! I stayed for a week with my 2 kids, ages 14 and 8. The hosts literally have this place stocked with everything you could possibly need. Games and puzzles, full kitchen to grill or cook, comfortable beds, and the decor is so beachy and fun, but very tasteful. We are already talking about going back next summer! Close to beaches and all the restaurants and shops. Thanks for hosting us!!

Very clean and enjoyable. Had everything and more than what we could need. My son is a writer and spent a lot of time on the sun porch. The pool and hot tub were amazing and well kept. So close to anything you may need or enjoy. Looking forward to staying again❤️

The Perfect Family Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay! Vanessa was a very easy owner to work with and ensured we had all we needed. We have two young kids (one and three) and the cottage was a perfect size for the four of us. The space was clean, the neighbors were respectful and friendly. Salt water Cafe across the street is one of the best eateries in Wells. We always look for a spot in Beach Dreams when we visit and Vanessa was our best host yet!

Cozy cottage

Overall, this place was fine for a short stay, but it was a bit cluttered with trinkets, there were some toilet issues from the moment we arrived, and one of the bedspreads smelled musty. It was a bit tedious to sort through the host's paperwork before gaining access to the property, too. Hosts were fantastic and responded quickly, though. Great welcome binder in the cottage helped us enjoy a pleasant stay. Well-equipped kitchen. High-quality TV. Thanks!

Nice area to stay. The only issue we had was the sheets didn’t fit the bed very well as they kept slipping off. So other than that we were happy with the place.

Cozy Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage. It was very clean and comfortable, and the perfect size for our group of four. The full kitchen was terrific for breakfast (and even a dinner). The kids enjoyed playing tennis, and the hot tub, fitness center and game room, were nice attractions. Good location, close to Kennebunk, Ogunquit, York. Several beaches in quick driving distance - closest maybe a mile and a half walk. We also enjoyed the mini golf course just down the street. Everything was as described, and communication was quick and easy. Thank you to Vanessa and Brian. Overall, a fun, relaxing getaway!

The Beach Dreams cottage was a great base for exploring Ogunquit and very comfortable. While the cottage is compact, it is well organized and we found both the living room area and screen porch great places to hang out and talk. Vanessa and Brian were very responsive when we had questions.
