About the host
Hosted by Ellen
I love the beach! I spent my summers growing up on the coast of Maine. My whole family including two grown children, my little grandson, sister, cousins all love the beach and have that inherited pull to the ocean that runs in our blood from our shipbuilding Grandpa.
We've been vacationing on Long Island in Casco Bay. Casco Bay is another nice day trip you might enjoy. Ferry service is available out of Portland at Casco Bay Ferries.
When not enjoying the cottage myself, I spend my time living on a boat in Kittery, Maine and enjoying the sites and sounds of the Piscataqua River and Portsmouth, NH.
I usually have a little garden growing in the backyard with vegetables and fruit - help yourself to whatever is available.
I've been to a lot of beaches all over the world and I truly believe we have some of the best right here in Maine!
Why they chose this property
LOCATION: This house is a short bike ride to the beach or just a few minutes by car. But the beach is not the only thing to do (only in my mind), there is so much to see and do within walking distance: concerts in the Park, farmer's markets, craft fairs, hiking, bowling to name just a few.
Kennebunkport is 5 minutes away, groceries, health food store, fitness gym all within a mile or two.
What makes this property unique
Quiet, private beach at the end of the road, just take a right and keep going until you hit the beach (no parking permit required). The town of Kennebunk is a short walk from the house for a leisurely stroll for shopping, diner or just an ice cream.
The old historic Inns in the Kennebunk/Kennebunkport area are a treat to visit for lunch or diner.
The quiet backyard and patio is just right for cup of coffee in the morning or relaxing after a long day.
