Located just minutes from Kennebunkport, this stretch of beach may be the most beautiful place to stay in Maine. Quaint streets to bike and walk, watch the sun come up over the Atlantic Ocean with tiny Timber Island in the background. A general store offers parking passes and penny candy, adding to the nostalgia of Maine coastal summers.

Beautiful Getaway in the Woods

The Trolley House is well appointed, clean, comfortable, and close by to shopping, beaches, and sightseeing. The beds are very comfy and the front yard is great for BBQs and sitting around a warm fire toasting marshmallows. We were very pleased with everything and our hostess, Emily was very attentive.

Perfectly peaceful

This was a perfect place for my family (all adults) to get away and enjoy both the beach (only a short drive to goose rocks beach) and the country. It is just as lovely in person as in the pictures, it has everything you need. The location is also nice, just a short drive into town and local restaurants. We loved it and would definitely book this again!

Nice property

Property was very relaxing and great location. Tho there were 3tvs u could only watch if you steamed-therefore no tv usage. One plumbing issue early on was rectified immediately by the owner-a very nice person. At the end of the rental I attempted to reach your agent to explain a couple of issues I thought should be addressed and she became very belligerent and rude. It was not how one of your agents should act towards a client. Unfortunately we left with a bitter feeling about the place due to her interaction.
