The Property is steps from the beach , minutes away from farmers markets and Kennebunkport. Great place for a family vacation. Beach is spectacular and house has plenty of room for the family to relax. Eat together or hang out on the porch or the beach. Really good responsive hosts.
A few days was not enough! We hope to come stay here again! This home is well-stocked and comfortable to make the most out of beautiful Goose Rocks Beach. The owners go above and beyond to make it a pleasant stay.
We had a great stay at Goose Rocks Beach. The location of the house is incredible, right across the road from the beach which was perfect with little kids. There is an outdoor shower, grill, and plenty of beach toys that the hosts allow you to use. Cathy and Derek were very communicative with us during our stay and answered all questions promptly. We had a great time.
Derek and Cathy have a beautiful, clean, well stocked home in Kennebunkport. It is spacious and comfortable. Derek was concerned and helpful when the there was a problem with the internet. (It was resolved). Our only complaint is that sheets and towels were not provided. Most VRBO rentals provide linens, and the laundering of them is covered by the sizable cleaning fee.
This house is a great escape location any time of year!
Ideal location if you want to spend your time at the beach! Great property and amenities (bikes, beach toys, chairs, kayaks etc are included which is so wonderful!) highly recommended for your next vacation. Could be a little hard with only 2 bathrooms depending on the size of your party, but we never had an issue :)
Amazing location and a perfect place to stay. We really enjoyed the front porch and the sound of the sea at night. Goose Rocks Beach is the best place!
Quintessential Gooserocks Beach right across from the ocean!
Perfect house for a quick get-a-way for Easter! It would be awesome in warmer weather as well but we loved every minute of looking out over the sea from the windows and porch. Walked the beach many times and can never get enough. The home was welcoming, well-equipped and nicely decorated. The owners were very pleasant and eager to assist with questions. Would definitely stay again!!!
We just left our week at GRB and can't wait to go back! Two families enjoyed the house and there was plenty of room and privacy for everyone of all ages. We were impressed with the location and all the fun in the garage for the beach. Anything you would ever need is at the house and we had a great time. Looking forward to next time.
You canât beat the location, the renters were beyond gracious, friendly and so accommodating! They also had so much beach gear there so we dIdnt have to schlep as much. The house was decorated very cute too and had everything you could possibly need. We hope to come back next year!
We cannot rave enough about Beach Plum. Easy to get to Gooserocks beach and a friendly old village feeling once you settle in.There are lots of beach bikes, toys, chairs so no need to pack it all!
Perfect house with all you need and more. One of the best locations for a cottage in the area. Very quiet and comfortable. Owners were nice and very accommodating on a short notice too! Will be back soon!
Plenty of beds to sleep in. The kitchen is fully functional. Thereâs a washer and dryer to use, an outside shower, and a clothesline. The garage full of beach toys and chairs made it so we didnât have to haul any with us. That was a great help. Overall, this is a great place to stay if you want to fully enjoy Goose Rocks Beach. You canât get any closer!!!! The owner was easily accessible by text/phone for any questions we had. Just a great stay!!!!
Can't get enough of this lovely home. It's cozy, comfortable but spacious. Love the sunsets and walking on the beach and a quick trip to the Potland Headlight. We hope to come back for years to come. Thank you for having us!
What a perfect beach vacation! My family's first time to GRB and it did not disappoint! Derek and Cathy's home is so warm and cozy! Like other reviews, it reminds me of my childhood visiting my grandparents. Plenty of room for all! Their home is perfectly situated to the beach entrance where we spent days just sitting out on the beach. Everything needed for a day at the beach (except cold drinks!) was provided. We really loved ordering steamed lobsters from Wolf's and bringing them back to the house for a delicious dinner! Looking forward to visiting again next year! Thanks, Derek and Cathy!!
The house is situated in the most perfect location on Goose Rocks Beach. The added amenities of the tubes, kayaks, and paddle board added so much value. Everyone in my family tried them out daily. You can hear the waves crashing from the bedrooms at night. The bedrooms are thoughtfully appointed and provided private space for everyone in our party.
Fantastic views and you couldn't get closer to the amazing beach!
We are long time vacationers at Goose Rocks Beach and have wonderful memories (and high expectations) for our vacations here. The Beach Plum has all of the old school, cottage charm (without the cramped spaces!)...knotty pine throughout (reminding us of my grandparents' home down the street!!), great porches to enjoy the early mornings and evenings with the beverage of your choice and large master bedrooms with views of the water and sounds of crashing waves. The outdoor shower was wonderful, perfect for washing off after the beach. The house is well stocked with almost every conceivable beach toy, chair or kayak, so that you don't have to lug your own. Overall, a great place to stay and Derek and Cathy have done a wonderful job of helping all guests enjoy their stay. Thank you!!
The Beach Plum is a little slice of heaven on earth! Our family loves staying here and cannot wait to return next year!! Derek and Kathy have thought of everything to make their guests feel at home and comfortable in their cozy, spacious, and perfectly situated house. It's a pleasure to take care of everything as if its your own home because you can tell the love and care that is put into the Beach Plum and the consideration for it's guests. Thank you for another wonderful year filled with great memories for our family!
This season marked our second year staying at Beach Plum in Goose Rocks Beach. In our mind there is no better place to be! The porch offers respite from the beach as well as a kind of meet and greet feeling from folks coming off the beach. By the way the beach access is just across the street. Living space is ample for large families, lots of room in the kitchen, and a full supply of every beach toy you would want in the garage! We look forward to another family get away there!
Our whole family is so grateful to have found this wonderful house to stay during our visit to Goose Rocks Beach.
We use to live nearby and came back to celebrate two of our children turning 30. This was the perfect house and spot.
Thank you Derek, for being so responsive and generous.
We all highly recommend this VRBO.
Thank you to the Weber family for letting us stay in their amazing home. To start it's so much larger than it appears. We stayed in November which was fantastic. It was so quiet and we had free range of the beach. We saw many seals. The bedrooms were large and comfortable. The dining room was a lovely gathering space. It was so inviting. We had 10 people and we fit nicely in the sitting room to play games. Thanks again for such a great experience. We Will be back! Also, we went out to walk the island which was great. Thanks again
Derek and Cathy's family house at Goose Rocks Beach is absolutely wonderful. The house is beautifully decorated, steps away from a stunning beach, and equipped with everything you need for a perfect holiday - kayaks, boogie boards, grills, and much, much more.
Derek and Cathy also had some great restaurant recommendations and were in touch right away when we had questions.
One hundred percent recommended!
