Wonderful cottage, after being greeted by the owner we got acquainted with the property. They offer a cute coffee, tea and snack station in the cottage as well as fresh baked blueberry muffins and flowers, you can enter the main house for afternoon sweet treats and enjoy them on the covered patio.

Perfectly Located Oasis

My husband and I wanted to get to Maine for a few days before the busy season began. I was looking on VRBO and found The Harbor Inn's cottage. It was exactly what we were looking for. The cottage offers comfortable seating, a full kitchen, a queen bed and full bath. Our favorite spot was the private patio off the back side of the cottage. It was quaint and perfect. The Inn has bikes you can borrow to ride down into town, but we opted to walk. This cottage is ideally located. You can walk a few minutes north to a few shops, markets and restaurants, or south and hit downtown Kennebunkport. Beaches, shops and food are minutes away by foot, bike or vehicle. Mike and his parents are hands on. They are there if you need them, or quietly off working around the property when you don't. They offer such a wonderful atmosphere; we will definitely return. They are amazing hosts that made the experience all the more enjoyable.
