Tucked in a quiet neighborhood, but only steps from the beach, the Kennebunk House has been a home away from home for families for decades. We purchased the property in 2009 and renovated it to include many of the modern conveniences you need. Even with these updates, the house remains true to its character as a seaside cottage with plenty of room for a single family or an extended group of friends and family. The house sleeps up to 12 in five bedrooms, including a separate family bedroom inthe guest house that sits directly next to the main house. The Kennebunk House boasts an impressive number of common areas to allow you to enjoy your vacation: the propane-fueled fire pit for late night conversations, the front porch for a cocktail while taking in peeks of the ocean, the the first floor of the guest house for a spirited pool tournament, or the living room of the main house with its impressive stone fireplace. A block back from the ocean and walking distance to three beaches (less than 200 yards, the closest being the sandy Mother's Beach (including a great playground for kids) and the rocky Middle Beach) and Webhannet Golf Club , this quiet location offers easy access to all the Kennebunks have to offer.

    Stayed here with my parents, my wife, and two children. It was the perfect place for us because of the detached 'guest house' where my parents could stay (and get a break from the kiddos who are pretty high energy). Beautiful kitchen and plenty of spaces to eat as a family made this a great entertaining house, as well. And to top it all off, it's very easily walkable to Mother's Beach which was perfect for us. What's not to like? We loved it.

    Great house and great location for a big group specially. It has all you need. The outdoor fire pit and porch are really a plus. We all loved our stay and would recommend for sure.

    We had an amazing stay at The Kennebunk House, it was the perfect place for a multi-generational family reunion. The beach nearby is stunning and the perfect place to be with young kids — the tide pools and playground were endless entertainment. We made great use of both the firepit and outdoor shower out back. The toy and games closet was amazing! The house was so comfortable and easily accommodated our whole crew — it was even bigger than it looked in pictures. Patrick was very communicative and so helpful with every question that came up. We really appreciated having the beach chairs, toys, and wagon available. Our only issue was the inconvenience of having to bring our own linens when most people coming to the house were flying in (there is a local linens service, but it's outrageously expensive). That said, we'd be thrilled to come back. The house and location were just perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

    We had a wonderful week. House is beautiful and great for large families. Owner very responsive to questions we had. Plenty of beach chairs and beach toys provided. Great neighborhood close to 2 small beaches.

    Comfortable, roomy home with great light and multiple inviting indoor spaces, along with a wonderful exterior front porch and fun fire pit. Kitchen was well appointed and great for a group of 10 to enjoy meals at the house. Unmatched location to the beach and easy to get into town. In all, a fabulous home in a beautiful location.

    Our group had a wonderful stay. The house offered so many great gathering areas including a big fire pit and porches. The beach was only a couple of blocks away and Kennebunkport was a 2 mile walk or drive. All around a great time.

    What a wonderful place to stay! The teens had their own space and could walk to the beach and bike into town. There are two different small, uncrowded beach options a block away where the adults could watch the tide all day. Less than a mile away is a beautiful beach for a morning walk or sitting if you like a bigger beach. The house is charming and spacious, and the hosts are responsive. We hadn't gotten a vacation since the shutdown began and knew we needed a safe place to head for a week of unwinding before the school year; we could not have chosen better. We were able to eat outside at lobster places all week without having to sit inside a restaurant. It's a fantastic family vacation for really any age at all.

    We had a super week at this home with friends and family. The location cannot beat if you want to be near the beach, only a couple minute walk to Mother's beach. The property could have had more beach chairs (only 4, and they were in sad shape). The porch was awesome to hang out and have a cold drink. The porch also had enough seating for everyone. We had a catered lobster bake and it was a hit ! Our twin teen boys loved the casita, the small house with the pool table, king/bunk beds, and kitchenette. My final thought is the linens. Having to wash linens and make the beds is a big ask, especially during a pandemic (Were the sheets really washed?? who knows). This has to be done the morning you leave, which truth be told is a hassle and a downer on your way out. Thank god for in-laws. I knew I invited them for a reason :) The grill is great, ss is the fire pit, though it was a scorcher of a week, so did not have a chance to fire up. All in all a great property.
