Memories of Maine
Loved being in the area I used to vacation as a child. Close to many attractions and restaurants. Nunan’s Lobster house just around the corner and we managed to eat there 3 times. Nice accommodations and well supplied kitchen. All in all a wonderful vacation

Great cottage in Cape Porpoise!
Melissa's cottage was a lovely home away from home and provided a fantastic location and charming decor. Just around the corner from the famed Nunan's Lobster Hut and down the road from Dock Square and Goose Rocks Beach, this home is situated in an ideal spot to explore all of Kennebunkport and beyond. Melissa was very responsive and the home had all the comforts you could want. The outdoor space is a lovely landscaped garden area and is just steps from the marsh. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Away from the noise
Marshview is a wonderful place to get away from all the noise happening everyday. Beautiful marsh to watch wildlife and just think. The cottage is perfect and has everything you need to be comfortable.

Marvelous Memories of Marshview Cottage
Marshview Cottage sits at the end of a road in Cape Porpoise in a private setting. There seems to always be a lovely breeze, on a partly sunny, partly shady blue stone patio, complete with an umbrella table, Adirondack chairs circling a fire pit, two overstuffed comfy arm chairs that face the corner of the garden filled with bouquets of color. Adventurous guests are welcomed to launch the 2 kayaks on nearby Sampson Cove, and upon returning, you can hit the super outdoor shower. The cottage accommodations are just as perfect. Complete kitchen, designer look living room, and a large primary second floor bedroom with sliding doors to a balcony for two. This was our second stay, and it is a place we are looking forward to a return visit next summer. The memories of Marshview Cottage will make you want a return visit. Jim + Joyce M.

About the host

Hosted by Dan & Melissa Viehmann

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Kennebunkport and often say how nice it would be to take a vacation right here during the summer months. Our business doesn't allow us to, as summer time is the most demanding time of year. We purchased the Marshview Cottage to give you the opportunity to experience a quiet, peaceful getaway in our quaint little village.

Why they chose this property

Marshview Cottage is located on the end of a private lane, with no passing by traffic. The yard is private and fenced in. Enjoy time with a book on our patio or with your significant other by the crackling fire, with a glass of wine. The property is located very close to the village of Cape Porpoise. Enjoy an easy walk to the grocery store, Nunan's Lobster Hut, The Musette and Cape Porpoise Kitchen.

What makes this property unique

Private. Quiet. Charming. Serene. A little slice of heaven.
