It’s nice to have all the benefits of home without the hassle. Each year, we try to make sure we provide the amenities—both large and small—to add to your enjoyment. Although I’ve written about all the great area restaurants, our kitchen is spacious and a great gathering place for family meals. If you’d like to eat breakfast out, try the Egg & I, or Merriland Farms. Located off Rt. 1 north going toward Kennebunk on Coles Hill Road in Wells, the food is a treat, as is the jam we always leave for our guests as a gift. (There’s also a nice executive golf course there.) Marshview is great because it's an easy, short walk--only 500 yds.--to the beach—and what a beach it is! It’s private, sandy, friendly and a gathering center for the neighbors, but there’s always room to find a quiet spot for you and family. The beach is the scene of football, baseball and bocce other games, horseshoes, kit flying, Frisbee contests. There are sand castles, mermaids of all kinds, sand toys and sea shells.
Just looking at the ocean is a source of respite. Lobster boats, yachts, pleasure crafts, lobster traps, Nubble Lighthouse, Kennebunkport, Ogunquit and Perkins Cove are all visible. (On the Fourth of July, fireworks can be seen from Ogunquit and from Kennebunkport.) Standing in, dodging or riding the waves, surfing, tubing, kayaking, canoeing are some of the activities people enjoy. Others love walking, looking for shells, bike riding, searching for hermit crabs or other ocean treasures.
Our rooms are large, airy, bright and clean. They're designed and furnished with you and your family in mind. If you want to stretch your vacation dollar, staying at Marshview is less expensive than staying in one of the homes on the beach. We take pride in our home and what we offer to our guests.
