We had a wonderful time at the house. It was nice to have a gathering room/big dining room table in the middle of the house, away from the bedrooms, to play games at in the evening. Although we were there in April and the pool was closed, the outdoor space and seating was great to enjoy the warmer weather. The beaches were very close and the town even closer!!
This property was perfect for celebrating my sisters bachelorette. Plenty of sleep options, plenty of bathrooms, clean property, will definitely be booking again.
Host was so accommodating with our family, from booking to check in, everything was easy. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out and close to downtown Kennebunkport. Would definitely stay here again!
This house was perfect for our family vacation! Close to the beach and town, (walkable for some) with access to many wonderful restaurants and shops. Great outside area with a pool, fire pit, and grill. Big enough that our family of twelve never felt crowded!
Beautiful home and property walking distance to downtown Kennebunkport. Michael was very responsive and helpful. Would absolutely recommend and stay again.
House was clean, owners answered everything we ever asked super quickly and itâs a great area! We really enjoyed our girls weekend getaway and canât wait to go back!
Wonderful property located near downtown Kennebunk
We had an incredible weekend - an excellent property for family of all ages. Host was very responsive and helpful at every point of the process. Thanks again!
We had 11 people in our party and every family had their own bedroom & bathroom along with A/C to keep the room cool. We enjoyed the pool in the mid afternoon after a day exploring Kennebunkport and the endless shops and eateries. Gotta stop by Clam Shack for a fresh lobster roll or clam chowder!
We had an incredible experience! The house accommodated our family perfectly, offering plentiful space and amenities. We appreciated the cleanliness and thoughtful touches⊠and the pool was a hit with our kids! It was a great space to unwind after a day at the beach.
We look forward to extending our stay next year! Thank you for hosting!
Michael's home was the perfect spot for our family's last minute mini-trip to Kennebunk! It was a perfect central location so close to the downtown. The kids loved the pool (they even swam in the rain!) and the adults really liked the firepit area. We travel in a big group and we were lucky to be able to each have our own room and bed. The kitchen was also stocked with everything we needed for family style dinners. We will definitely be coming back!
We had a great time in Michael's place over the New Year's holiday. The was plenty of space for 6 adults and multiple dogs. The fenced back yard was great for them to run around in and the close proximity to the beach was nice as well. Michael provided the perfect amount of communication to ensure we had everything we needed. Would certainly stay there again.
This was an excellent place to gather as a family during the holidays. There was plenty of space to spread out. Our family made used of the two kitchens for cooking and preparing meals. The living room space was somewhat small for group of 8 adults, but we made it work.
RENTERS BEWARE â THIS HOUSE DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THE LISTING
Aside from the location (convenient to downtown and beaches) this property is an atrocity. We left our trip 3 days early, and the owners are ignoring us.
1. The property is advertised as ânewly renovated top to bottom.â It is not. It has some new cheap vinyl floors (which are buckling due to moisture issues) and granite counters. Lipstick on a pig, at best. Itâs dirty, dingy, and gross top to bottom.
2. The house has numerous safety hazards, including broken pool ladders, missing smoke detectors, a dishwasher that falls out, and stairs without safety railings. There are also exterior doors without locks, and a broken bulkhead.
3. The house has a distinct mold odor. Itâs terrible, and they try to mask it with 87 glade plug ins. You can see the moisture in the walls and in the floor. The roof also shows numerous leaking areas. The suspected mold gave 2 of our guests mold sickness â my 2 year old daughter and 62 year old mother became extremely ill at the house and felt better within 12 hours of leaving.
4. Electricity issues: the circuit breaker tripped DAILY while doing basic tasks, like running the dishwasher or blow drying hair. We were concerned to use electronics and cause a fire.
5. Cheap and dirty furnishings: for the price of the house, Iâd expect a mattress thicker than 4 inches and a couch without stains. We covered all the couches with cleaned blankets because they were so dirty.
GROSS. DO NOT BOOK HERE.
Once again this property led to a great family vacation had by all. Walked to the beach each day, about a mile and enjoyed the pool after that. Short ride to restaurants and shops. Plenty of room in the house for large families. Great fire pit!
This place was clean and huge! Our family of 7 fit perfectly. The ambiance in the backyard was perfect for our purpose. We also love the fact that our dogs could join us. Overall an amazing stayđ
We called it the home with an east wing and west wing since the home has two separate kitchens and living rooms connected with a common dining area. It was lovely, comfortable and accommodated our family very nicely for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Great location and proximity to downtown Kennenunkport!
House was very spacious and perfect for our large group. Having two kitchens was very helpful for our group of 10! The kitchens and home was very well equipped and clean. Only a few minutes to downtown Kennebunkport with restaurants and shops. Check in process was extremely easy and host was very accommodating. Thank you! We hope to be back again next year!
This review is two-fold. First, I did reserve the house for two families to stay while attending a wedding at the Colony Hotel over Columbus Day weekend. I ended up getting Covid and was unable to attend. So, my review on my communication with the host is firsthand but the reviews of the property itself are based on feedback from my best friend and my daughter.
Michael was a wonderful communicator - always responding to any inquiries promptly and thoroughly. I thought the price of the house was reasonable given the holiday weekend.
Reviews of the house (rental was reserved for 12 adults - 6 couples) - 2 families
The layout was great for our two family situation given that we each had our own kitchen and that there were multiple baths. There was plenty of room to spread out. It was great that it was dog friendly - the backyard was great for the pets. We would have loved to have been there when the pool was open - it's a wonderful yard for hanging out. The house was very clean and comfortable - one comment is that bed pillows were too puffy but that's always a matter of preference. It was also mentioned that if the house had been at capacity, there probably could have been more towels available.. Very convenient to the downtown area.
Overall, a wonderful stay and we would definitely book it again.
Welcome to Kennebunk! My wife, Hannah, and I are native New Englanders who each spent many summers growing up in Maine. We now own two vacation properties in the Kennebunkport area and love being able to rent out these homes to guests from all over the country and world. We both work full-time in education and enjoy hiking, cooking, gardening, and playing with our two dogs.
This property is perfect for those seeking a coastal Maine vacation! Enjoy the spacious cape style home - complete with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and 2 full kitchens - while being only one mile from the nearest beach, and within walking distance to Kennebunkport's Lower Village. The home has a private in-ground swimming pool located behind the house, surrounded by a 600 square foot wrap-around deck and a two acre yard surrounded by forest.
