This property would be 6 stars if I could have added the extra one. It’s much larger than the photos and every detail is taken care of. It really felt like a home away from home. The place was spotless! My daughter and I visited Kennebunk for the first time and the apartment is lovely and well-appointed. The kitchen is stocked with every appliance and gadget you’d have in your own home. The back garden view was also a pleasant surprise- so many well-tended flowers in the garden with a nice expanse of woods. It’s tucked away in a quiet neighborhood and so peaceful. The location was great- just a few minutes into Kennebunk town proper, close to supermarket, CVS, shops and a 10 min drive to Kennebunkport. Beach chairs and cooler were also provided by the house and those came in handy when we went to the local beaches just down the road. We had the pleasure of meeting Linda the host when we arrived and she was warm, welcoming and super responsive. I’d highly recommend this place!

Kennebunk Getaway

You cannot choose a better cottage than this Gem. Linda & Mark have gone above & beyond to provide guests with everything they could possibly need for a relaxing night, week or in our case 3 weeks. With a fantastic covered porch & fire pit area just a great way to relax after a day enjoying the town of Kennebunk & Kennebunkport. Can’t wait to return!

Perfect Labor Day weekend stay

Very pretty and very comfortable! Has all the amenities you need- we enjoyed the fire pit and grill, and the close proximity to beautiful beaches, loads of thrift and antique stores and terrific Maine food. Very nice hosts as well who made us feel welcome. And we especially appreciate dog friendly people!

Lovely little well equipped cottage

My husband and I had a good experience here. The facilities are well-maintained and Linda Lawrence, the host is very responsive and attentive. The location worked for us and little touches like a gift certificate to a local restaurant were appreciated. Thoughtful care-giving attention during our stay. Thank you Linda!

Wonderful cottage

The cottage is an oasis on the outskirts of town, with soothing beach colors throughout. The bathroom is gorgeous and the kitchen is as well-appointed as what you'd have at home. The several wall air conditioners kept the cottage very comfortable. Everything is well thought out, and there is nothing you could need or want that isn't already provvided, including an all-important beach pass to Kennebunk beaches, beach chairs and cooler. Linda and Mark Lawrence are the consummate hosts. We had a couple of questions upon check-in that they addressed immediately. We would definitely come back here if we are in the area again.

Beautifully decorated and well appointed cottage - perfect for a couple. Relax on the porch, walk to town for dinner, or visit nearby hiking trails. Owners have very thoughtfully provided beach chairs, cooler, umbrella and parking pass for nearby beach visits.

Very well equipped rental in beautiful and convenient setting.

Extremely well equipped and comfortable, quiet one bedroom apartment on the outskirts of Kennebunk. Convenient to I95 and Route 1. Chickens and groundhog in the yard in a very rural setting. Close (driving) to the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge as well as a number of beaches, and the shops are not too far away. The owner was very quick to respond to questions via SMS, but as everything was good we didn't need to communicate much. I would definitely recommend this to others and hope to return sometime.

Outstanding in every respect from ease of making reservation to responsiveness of host, the property is ideal for two. Clean, comfortable and supplied with everything you need to enjoy the “home-like” cottage. There are beach chairs, beach ice chest and beach parking pass. Nothing is overlooked. Can’t wait for another opportunity to stay
