Peaceful Retreat

I wrote an earlier email stating how fabulous this property and its owners are but I don't see it in the reviews so, I'm writing again. Our annual "bowling girls weekend in Kennebunk" has been taking place for the past 12 years and every year is better than the year before. The home is absolutely perfect for a large group, which makes it more affordable as well. The photos don't do it justice and the owner keeps the property up, improving it every year. The vistas from the back porch on the rockers are almost as relaxing as sleeping with the windows open listening to the water slap against the shoreline. Although we never leave the property (why would you when the beach is outside your back door and you have all your provisions at your fingertips), there is lots of shopping, dining and other activities just two miles down the road in Kennebunkport's Lower Village. If you want to get a little exercise, you can even walk to town.....viewing beautiful seaside homes and a 5-star restaurant along the way. We've been there during three seasons and each visit is simply the best. The owners are always just a phone call away but we've had no reason to call for anything as we arrive and leave without any issues.
I've recommended this beach house to family and friends who were planning weddings, reunions, birthday celebrations, etc. and everyone is very thankful for the recommendation. It's simply a wonderfully relaxing retreat. It's always clean and welcoming with fresh flowers upon arrival and furnishings that aren't too fussy. There's parking for about 5 or 6 cars in the driveway, depending on the size.
We plan to keep this home on our travel schedule for years to come.
