About this property

HISTORIC COASTAL MAINE RETREAT

Beachfront cottage on beautiful Goose Rocks Beach. Built in 1896, Emery Cottage has been in the family for 6 generations. It is truly a hidden treasure on Goose Rocks and is featured in many works of art which you’ll probably see in some of the local shops. Emery Cottage has three bedrooms, one bath, kitchen, dining/living area and a sunroom with an amazing view. Cozy, comfortable, clean and simply charming!

The front porch is a great place to relax, read and enjoy a cool drink after a long day on a very private part of the beach. Four strides off the porch and you are on your way down the stairs to the soft sands of Goose Rocks. The beach is perfect for lively games or for peaceful walks. Just down the beach you will find amazing tide pools, rock formations and plenty of unique shells along the way.

The world-famous Tides Beach Club and it’s award-winning restaurants is 0.5 miles away, the General Store and gift shop is a short 0.2 mile walk, the beautiful coastal village of Cape Porpoise with its incredible views and restaurants is 7 minutes away and the famous Dock Square in Kennebunkport is only 11 minutes away. Kennebunkport is a dockside village famous for the numerous shops full of local craftspeople, artisans, gifts, clothing, incredible food and it’s all accessible on foot.

Along the way, make sure to stop at the viewing area of Walker Point. Here you will find unending views of the Atlantic and the stunning rocky sea walls which are so unique to the Maine coastline.

Our family would be thrilled to host your family for a truly unique coastal Maine getaway. Please reach out soon as dates fill up quickly. Thank you!
