This charming cape is located between Kennebunkport Village and Cape Porpoise, a lobster fishing village. The house sits on a 0.8 acre lot, far from the main road so space to play outside. The sunroom has a bucolic view on surrounding pastures. At night, you can view the stars in the sky or the fireflies outside. In summer, you can use the screened gazebo built in the shadow. The house is close to the two main beaches in Kennebunk (Gooch's) and Kennebunkport (Goose Rocks Beach). Each is very different and worth visiting. When looking at tidal pools, you can find young lobsters (which we once found shedding its shell), crabs, sand dollar, sea stars and hermit crabs. Sea glass can also be found nearby. The Pier in Cape Porpoise has a view of the lighthouse.
The cape has 3 bedrooms and can accommodate 4 adults.

    Good overall. We particularly liked the location and the large private garden, well maintained. Beware of the mosquitoes though, bring repellent. Goose rocks beach, Nunan’s lobster hut and The Tides in Cape Porpoise were wonderful. We also liked the Boathouse restaurant in Kennebunkport. It is just about walking distance to Kennebunkport (30 min) where parking can be difficult at the height of the summer holidays. The main negative is the internet. Max 20 mbps, and with 6 guests it kept disconnecting and reconnecting, really annoying. The cooker is probably 50 years old, and one of the hobs was not working. Only one shower is not enough for 6 guests but plenty of hot water. The baby room is not making optimal use of the space in my opinion, a single bed instead of a cot would be more useful, and I would have a travel cot available instead. We were not able to turn on the BBQ. We were not able to use the very large TV. The fridge had not been emptied from the previous guests and the food spills were not cleaned. The fans were covered in thick dust so I had to clean them myself before turning them on. There was no extra bedding available for the futon in the sun room. Eco friendly cleaning products and laundry detergent were appreciated. Despite the negatives, we may still come back as a smaller party, knowing what to expect.

    The house and setting were lovely, we especially enjoyed the big sunroom which we just about lived in the entire time we were home. A very child friendly, well appointed space was much appreciated as we had our 10 month old granddaughter and her parents with us. Parsons Way was a very scenic 3 mile hike and perfect for a stroller outing. Our favorite beaches were Goose Rock Beach in Cape Porpoise and Parsons Beach in Kennebunkport. Thank You for a wonderful stay!!

    Leaving a detailed review for other parents like myself who may be interested in some of the small details! Overall- the house was great. Chantal was very easy to communicate with and even let us know the house was ready for early check in after I had asked her about this (greatly appreciated with two babies who needed to nap!) Location is awesome- close enough to lively dock square but far away enough to feel remote and super quiet. The sunroom was our favorite part- in the morning and nighttime when the sun wasn’t beaming down this was our favorite place to spend time. Now for the things that could use improvement, The wifi was very slow- I had to work one day and couldn’t take any zoom meetings on my laptop and had to use a hotspot on my phone (not the point of vacation but I only add this since it’s mentioned in the other reviews) No air conditioning- it was incredibly hot during the day and we did travel with a newborn so this was of concern to me regarding safe sleeping conditions. Night time was fine- plenty of breeze/fans helped. Re: safe sleep- the crib in the downstairs room has a drop side so did not feel comfortable using with our infant however Chantal did provide two pack n play cribs which were great. The downstairs living room rug was very uncomfortable/tough for my toddler to sit and play and hard to kneel on. Overall- more positives and just some small things I would say are important to consider for other parents traveling with small children. The house is really equipped with so much and I think with a few upgrades to the above mentioned it is the perfect summer rental for families!

    We had a lovely stay. The house was large enough to spread out with the sunroom being an added plus. Private road was quiet at night and close to towns small grocery and other places to eat and things to do. Nicely appointed with a crib and toddler chair for our one year old. The high chair wouldn’t be suitable for a younger child that can’t sit upright. Overall wonderful location and home.

    Enjoyed the location—out of the way but a very short drive to town and beaches. House was very clean and had everything we needed. I would stay here again.
