This property is just a few minutes' drive from Dock Square in Kennebunkport. This Beachside town, which offers specialty shops, restaurants, bars, fishing and boating charters, trails to bike or walk, and the picturesque beaches that sweep our Maine coastline for miles. Kennebunkport's most picturesque beaches are Goose Rocks Beach, where the sand is as fine as baking flour. Other beaches just across the town line in Kennebunk, Mother's Beach, have rock formations that create tidal pools for exploring tiny sea creatures. Mother's Beach is every child's favorite because of the playground next to the Beach. Also close are Middle Beach and Gooch's Beach, which offer the best fine sand for building contest-worthy sandcastles, surf for the most fantastic boogie board experiences, and a horizon for the most amazing sunrises and sunsets. Our town is a quaint fisherman's village that has developed over the years into a desirable destination for visitors and summer residents.
Guests have full access to the property; locked closets are intended to remain locked for the owner's privacy.
