About this property

Beautiful Private Oasis - On the River's Edge

Close to everything & on the Mousam River's edge is our newly renovated guest suite surrounded by beautiful gardens. The unit has its own entrance in the back of our home with a private seating area that looks out over the river. The suite has LR/kitchen area (Queen sofa bed), one bedroom with King size bed and one bath with shower. Home is located 10 minute walk from downtown Kennebunk. The Kennebunk beach is a 4.5 mile drive. Portland is a 30 minute drive.

Guests are welcome to bring their own kayaks and enjoy time on the river. We have a dock for easy access, though water levels can vary depending on the season and rainfall, so launching may not always be ideal directly from the dock.

Beach parking pass is available during the season.

Maine Getaway

The place was perfect for my husband, teenage son and me. We were able to visit Ogunquit, Wells, Kennebunkport and Portland from this centrally located area to hit the beaches, shop, and golf. The one bedroom was nicely decorated, comfortable king size bed and pull out sofa bed with nice bedding. Made breakfast each day. We hoped to kayak but the water levels were a bit low, but lovely setting overall.

Beautiful!

This property is like stepping into a dream, the location on the river and flowers were just magical. The décor was gorgeous and tasteful, I particularly enjoyed the art work. So much thought was put into having every little thing you may need to make your stay comfortable. The bed was super comfortable too. And it is within driving distance to the whole area. We didn't use the kakas, but that would be fun for those who use them. I would stay here again in a heart beat.

Peaceful, detailed, and clean!

We so enjoyed our two night stay! The space was very clean, close to everything, and it was fun to see all the little details in the decor. Everything we needed to go on an adventure was included. There were kayaks, beach chairs, a soft cooler, beach towels and even a parking pass. Michelle really thought of everything! The bed was very comfortable and the bedroom was dark and quiet. Would definitely recommend!

Lovely Cozy Apartment

This was our first trip to the Maine coast to attend our niece’s wedding. The accommodations were perfect! Very neat, clean and convenient with all the comforts of home. (The bed was especially comfortable!) It was obvious to us that much heart and attention to detail went into making this property very warm and welcoming. Although someone does live upstairs it was very private and quiet. The owner was very responsive and helped to make our stay wonderful. Would definitely consider staying here again!

Great weekend getaway in Maine

My husband and I enjoyed our stay and hope to return to visit in the future. The place was clean, cozy and well stocked with everything we needed to feel at home on our weekend away. Being able to take the kayaks out on the river was a great perk that came with renting this property. Michelle was great and the process to check-in and out was easy. I highly recommend this property to any couple looking for a quiet place to stay that’s a short drive from many restaurants, shops and beaches.

Nicely appointed and great location.

This place is fairly new. It has a good size bedroom along with the kitchen and living room area. The place was nicely decorated with a beach theme. We found the place very comfortable for our 3 night stay. The little patio is cute. We did not get to use it as it was cooler when we visited but I could imagine myself having my coffee outside. The location is only a few miles from several beaches, restaurants and coffee houses. Portland is only 30 minutes away making it easy to spend sometime there. Overall, I would not hesitate staying here again when I visit the coast of Maine.

Perfect One Night Stay

River's Edge was ideal for a last minute, overnight stay. Since most properties require minimum two-nights, I was thrilled to have found this. The space is immaculate, beautifully decorated and looks out over a lush backyard and river. We loved everything about it and would highly recommend.

What makes this property unique

Our favorite part about this space is the water view. It's so nice to wake up and sit outside with a cup of coffee and look at the water. It's very peaceful and quiet here but there is also so much to do. Walking distance to downtown Kennebunk and only 10 minutes from the Lower Village and Kennebunkport.
