Convenient location with room to spare

Spent the week in Kennebunk for our annual family trip to Maine. This house is conveniently located between the Kennebunk beaches and downtown Kennebunkport. Neither are easily walkable with kids, but the owners provide beach parking passes and bicycles which made it easy to go to either. House was spacious and very clean. Plenty of activities in the garage and house for rainy days too!

Great Family Getaway

Jeffrey and Kristen were very accommodating hosts. We were a family of 6 with 4 young adult children. Their beautiful home was exactly as described with easy access and so many amenities. These included a well stocked kitchen, beach chairs, outdoor deck and table, fire pit and individual room air condiitoners. The host was readily accessible via text when we needed help in using the washing macchine. They responded promptly when one of the toilets malfunctioned and apologized for the inconvenience. Would stay here again if available.

Home Away From Home

The minute we stepped into this wonderful vacation rental, we felt right at home! The location was near everything including beaches, restaurants, shops and grocery store. The home was well stocked and very roomy for our family of 7. We would highly recommend this home for a stress free vacation in Kennebunk and the surrounding areas!

A family summer vacation

The house is very clean! It has areas for the family to gather. In garage with table top games, back yard with table for 8 and a fire pit. Everything you need for the beach including parking permit. It says a short walk to the beach but no one in our group agreed on that, Maybe use one of the bikes provide. Located 1/2 between Wells and Kennebunk / Kennebunkport made it quick to get to shops and restaurants (ice cream locations). If you are flying in everything is provided but sheets, groceries and paper goods. Great place!!!

Wedding Week

Our group stayed in this house for my brothers wedding. It comfortable sleeps everyone in a bed and has all the amenities that we were looking for, 3 full bathrooms was a big bonus. Great location from the center of town as well as the beach. Perfect for large parties or families with children traveling together. This was a re-booking due to Covid and the host was incredibly accommodating and informative. Couldn't have asked for more!

Ladies weekend in Kennebunk...

Karen and Jeff's house worked out great for the 12 of us ladies. We had some issues with the heat when we first arrived. When we called Jeff he was accommodating and understanding of the situation. In the morning he had his heating company drop by to fix the problem. Other than the heat issue we had a fabulous weekend! Thank you Jeff and Karen.

Great Stay at the End of August

We loved staying at this house. It had something for everyone from my 78-year-old mother to my 4-year-old daughter. The kids especially like the comfortable coach in the family room next to the kitchen and the games in the garage. There was plenty of space for the 8 of us. It was a nice to have the choice of bedrooms on the 1st or second floor. It was close to the center of town and the beach. We drove to both because of the ages in our party, but I could see them being walkable. The kids really enjoyed the tide pools at Mother's Beach and the candy store in town. We would definitely stay at this house again. Thanks for a great stay!

Family vacation

8 adults & 3 children stayed comfortably in this clean, adorable, well supplied home. 1 mile from the beach or the town. We had a great time around the fire pit every night after a day at Gooch beach, so clean and not too crowded! Ping pong table was a great addition as well! I would definitely recommend this house for a week at the beach!

Great week in Kennebunk

We had a wonderful week in Kennebunk. The house was wonderful for adults and kids. The house was spacious and had a great layout. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. It was great having the two beach passes for parking at the beach. The walk to the beach was okay for adults but would have been long for kids and all the beach gear. Lots of things to do at the house for a rainy day with the table games in the garage, board games, and lots of TVs throughout the house. The window AC units and fans were nice when it got warm. We are thankful we found this house for our beach trip!

Great House

This house worked perfectly for our group of 4 adults and 4 children. The house was very clean, the kitchen was well-stocked, the garage was filled with fun things to do like ping pong table, air hockey, bikes, beach supplies and fooseball and the location was great. We walked into town and to Mother’s beach, each about a mile away. Overall, we had an amazing time in Maine at the property and are already trying to pin down dates to book for next year.

Clean Comfortable House Close to Kennebunkport

We had a great week in Kennebunkport staying here. There was a ping pong table, air hockey table, a couple of bikes & a foosball table to keep the kids busy while at home. They also enjoyed a rope swing outside. There was plenty of room & the bedrooms were clean and comfortable. There are enough bathrooms to get several people ready at once & they are separated far enough to give everyone privacy. They have a great amount of information about the house, town and activities in the house easy and convenient to access. The only 2 minor inconveniences were bringing our own linens (we don't have a king size bed or a single, so no correct sheets to bring for those beds) or renting them for several hundred dollars for the week. We brought our own, but it was not ideal. We also didn't find a kid friendly path to walk to town. It's a 5 minute drive and parking was not an issue, but it was congested. We drove each time we went as some streets on the way had no sidewalks. With that said, I would enthusiastically recommend this house. The cost and comfort made it a value in our mind. We enjoyed it.

We loved this house!

We had 11 people all sleep comfortably for the week! The house is a perfect location from the beach and also to Kennebunkport. The kitchen is well stocked and the House was found in clean condition when we arrived. Our kids loved the rope swing! Mother’s beach was the perfect area for us with 4 kids. There is a playground, tide pools and of course the ocean. They ran and played all day long. We couldn’t have asked for a better week. We will certainly be back!! Thank you Kristen!

House was beautiful with everything you could need. Beaches were close by and great waves. We did take a trolley tour of Kennebunk and kennebunport, and ate out a few restaurants. I would recommend this house for extended families, plenty of room for everyone.

Spacious an Clean

It's a beautiful house within walking distance of the beach and downtown Kennebunkport. There's a well equipped kitchen and plenty of beds for a family (or as in our case, shared family from different states) My only complaints would be the necessity to rent towels or pack them (this makes it difficult for those who fly and don't drive with the family for a week at the beach and towel rental was around $300 for the 3 days we were there), the road noise when sitting out and enjoying the beautiful backyard (with fire pit!) and it would have been nice to have a starter roll of toilet paper in each bathroom(discovered too late - haha), and maybe some little soaps in the bathrooms. Kristen was very easy to communicate with, cooperated in getting us into the house to coordinate with flights, and again, the house is cozy yet spacious and very clean and for those who come for a beach stay, the parking tags that come with the rental are worth quite a bit and a very nice touch! (There are also games like a ping pong table in the garage, videos, books, and 3 TVs with cable for those who may have a rainy day or two.) I definitely recommend anyone considering it to stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Kristen

Jeff and Kristen raised their four daughters in the suburbs of Boston. We have roots in Massachusetts and Maine. Jeff attended high school in northern Maine and graduated from the US Naval Academy so I guess you could say he has had a love of the ocean for a long time!

Why they chose this property

The southern coast of Maine has been part of our life since we can remember! We have such fond memories of watching the sunrise with our siblings and cousins and shucking clams for my grandmother to make homemade clam chowder. The long days spent on the beach were always followed by cookouts, tag, and catching fireflies. We honestly don't think we could be happy without being near the ocean. Something about it gives us energy and peace! We purchased this house as an eventual retirement home. It is a dream come true for us to have a home near the beach in Kennebunk.

What makes this property unique

This house made the most sense for us because it has lots of bedrooms and bathrooms and a room over the garage that we will eventually refinish for even more company! We love spending time with family and friends at the beach, and we wanted a place that had the space for them to stay with us.
