So much room in this well appointed former Captains home! Our very large party of friends felt so at home in this beautiful space. This in town location was so convenient to everything thing we wanted to do in Saco and nearby Kennebunkport. The first-class restaurants and shopping were everything we hoped for . Our host Gerald was responsive, friendly and accommodating. The coast of Maine was everything we hoped for and more. Highly recommend !

Great ship captain's mansion for large groups

This beautifully appointed historical brick mansion has about 15 - 18 rooms over 3 floors, with tall ceilings and fireplaces. It is ideally located near the beaches and a short drive from both Portland and Kennebunkport. The kitchen dining room and the great room are all well suited for a larger group, like ours. The bedrooms have lovely bedding and the bathrooms are large, clean and well decorated. Plenty of parking in Stowes historic district. We walked to some restaurants, breweries, and to an ice cream shop. We would defintely stay here again.

Annual Family Vacation

I realize that this is an older home and all in all, our visit to the area was fine. However, the house needs updating, a lot of it. The owner mentioned that there was central A/C but that it did not work. That was the main system on the first floor and it worked ok. All the bedrooms had window or free standing units. Couple of connection problems with these but ultimately worked out OK. It also needs a thorough cleaning. There was dust and debris in a lot of places. I am not sure why it was necessary to have all the lamps unplugged but perhaps there was a reason. It was frustrating and only highlighted the need for cleaning as you worked to plug in the lamps. When we arrived, the pool was green. The owner was good to his word that the pool man would work on it and that it would be clean the next day (it was). The pool area could use a power wash. The kitchen was adequately supplied and, overall, there was plenty of room. There were just a number of things that did not make sense. I mentioned the lamps. We also could not understand why the king beds did not have king foundations. The ad mentioned the horse the owner maintains on the property. The horse is literally in the driveway. He is a beautiful horse and was great with my grandchildren but the proximity was such that there was a "farm" smell. All that being said, the owner was very responsive, check-in was a breeze, and area was nice. The kids enjoyed the library and the playgrounds (all close by).

Group Leader

We had a special family reunion for my moms 87th birthday. We had a fabulous time and loved the communication with Gerry. He was very gracious, the pool was nice and well used by our family. He supplied all the necessities and beach chairs and coolers. Having Hercules, the horse, was fun for the kids. The portable AC units were good, but the central AC didn’t cool the main part of the house real well. If I came back to Saco, which I think was a great place for our situation, I would stay in Gerry’s house. The house was huge and had many beds. He said there was a lobster pot but we wanted a big one and couldn’t find one in the house. Overall, it was great!

Why they chose this property

We are the best located, most beautiful (in and out) 10 bedroom historic mansion in south coastal Maine. Our brick sea captains mansion looks beautiful from the street and even more beautiful when you see the cherry four posted beds and fireplaces throughout.
