Kayla and Nick were wonderful hosts! If we had a question, they promptly responded and made sure we had everything we’d need. We traveled with a one year old and they provided a Pack n Play, high chair, booster seat, and toys. The space is exactly as pictured. Very cozy and private. And the location is great! A quick drive to Kennebunkport, Old Orchard Beach, and Portland. We’d gladly stay there again!
