We just stayed a week at The Garrison and had a wonderful stay! The caretakers were very nice and helpful. Our room had a separate queen bedroom, kitchen, and living area with a comfortable sofa for relaxing after a full day of Maine adventures. The property is well maintained and comfortable. It was a good location with a beautiful morning view.

We come back to Wells year after year and stay here. The owners keep a quiet, restful, clean and safe place where you can enjoy the sunrise. The location is such that you can walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. We highly recommend The Garrison.

We had a great time staying at The Garrison. Best points were location (to beach, shopping and restaurants), clean room and grounds, the pool was amazing (I believe it was salt water). We also liked that the maid only came once during our 1 week stay. Garbage taken and towels left at our will. Some questionable qualities would be the mattresses and the shower valve

The property is beautiful and location is great. Rooms were clean and very nice. Very simple mattress (topper) and pillow upgrade would greatly improve the stay. Also wifi did not work well at all.
