Great Stay in Cape Porpoise

We had an amazing time at this beautiful house in Cape Porpoise. The house was in a great location, was very clean and well appointed, and had plenty of space for our family of 5 with 3 young children. Jeff, the owner, was also incredibly communicative and helpful - he made the entire rental process clear and easy. Will definitely be looking to stay again!

Wonderful!

The house was lovely (incredibly clean, comfortable and spacious) and located on a quiet street in the heart of Cape Porpoise. We come every year and this house is by far my favorite! The property manager/owner is also a joy to deal with - personable and very responsive. Could not recommend this property more highly. We were sad to leave!

Love this Home!

We had a great time at this property and would stay again! The house is very up to date and SO cute. It felt like a home away from home. Since we flew and didn’t drive we could’ve used some extra pillows, but that’s literally our only slight issue. The host Jeff was incredibly thorough with a hospitality booklet, he was very responsive to texts, and he and his family supplied everything we could think to need. Quick walk into Cape Porpoise where we enjoyed food and hikes. Quick drive to Kennebunkport as well as Portland and the surrounding area. Lots to do! Kayaking, eating, shopping, the beach.

comfortable and convenient

We had a great week at Jeff's home in Cape Porpoise. We were familiar with the area and knew this location would work well for us- we could easily put in our SUPs and cruise to a sandbar and explore, we could walk to multiple meals and get groceries easily. The home was clean and the kitchen had most everything we needed.

Week in Cape Porpoise

We love Cape Porpoise, and this house did not disappoint. The owned was very accommodating to our needs. He gave us a credit for a few things that were not exactly right and came to fix a faulty smoke detector. We would definitely rent again.

Cape Porpoise Gem

This house was everything it promised to be... spacious and comfortable, very thoughtfully appointed with anything a visitor could want. If you're not going to be right on the water, this is the next best thing. It's a short walk to boating access into the beautiful Cape Porpoise and Stage Island Harbor areas. Also a short walk to great eats at the Pier, Bradbury's and Cape Porpoise Kitchen. And a short drive to the incomparable beach for kids at Goose Rocks. Absolutely lovely - food for the soul!

Cape Porpoise holiday

Beautiful Maine property, spotlessly clean and well furnished. Perfect walk to 4 amazing restaurants and local store to cook in. Loved BBQ and eating in the garden surrounded by tiki torches.

Spectacular house! Great location!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience staying at Jeff's house in Cape Porpoise. The house was stunning, crystal clean and had every amenity you could possibly need. Jeff was very responsive to our needs and provided excellent customer service. The location was perfect. We could walk into the cute town and get groceries and/or stop in an upscale deli to get sandwiches, salads, desserts or just a steaming hot cup of coffee. We had an absolutely wonderful time and are hoping to come back very soon.
