The house was perfect for our trip that included two adults and a baby. We loved the close proximity to Kennebunkport, allowing you to easily walk to the town center as well as the beach. The house was tastefully decorated and was well stocked for vacationers. It was very clean and provided all the comforts of home. The gas fireplace was an added bonus on a couple of our cool nights.

Super cute, very comfortable

We had a great time in Kennebunk. The home was immaculate, super cute, and very roomy and comfortable. This spot was very conveniently located near great dining and shopping, but was also central enough to see many of the local towns on the coast with just a short drive.

Perfect off season getaway

This house is in the perfect location and is absolutely beautiful. It is also a plus that it is dog friendly. It is a quick walk to town and very quiet in the evenings. The entire house is spotless. We honestly felt like we were at home.

We will be back

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was clean, equipped with everything you might need and close proximity to Dock Square which is a huge plus. If you wanted to, you could walk to Dock Square which is great because parking can be limited, especially during the peak months of summer. We would definitely stay at this property again!
