About this house rental

Formerly rented by the U.S. Secret Service for several seasons, we are now doing weekly & monthly rentals. Our waterfront home is surrounded by water and has ocean, island and lighthouse views on a quiet tidal cove -every six hours the tide goes out. Located on 4 acres in Cape Porpoise, a small fishing village in Kennebunkport. Our property is on the end of a private road so there is plenty of privacy. The house looks directly towards the water so at high tide you can take in the water views and feel like you are away from it all. We have our own pier and float on the property which you may use to tie up a boat -you can bring or rent a kayak, canoe or boat & explore the seven Cape Porpoise islands. A great place for kids to swim, or fish for crabs off the end of the pier. The pier is is shared with the cottage which we also own on the property- which can be rented with the house if needed. The house and cottage area also rented separately (also through Homeaway/VRBO) They are completely separate from each other, so you have privacy with more than 200 feet separating the two. The house has a fully equipped galley kitchen, dining room, family room and living room with water views. Sleeps 6. Three bedrooms: master w/ fireplace & water view. 2 full baths- one on each floor. Back porch & deck, front porch/ deck overlooks water. Sorry, No Pets.


Less than a mile to Cape Porpoise village, you will find restaurants, a grocery store, library and art gallery. It is a scenic walk to the local pier where you can fish or watch the lobstermen bring in their catch. A three mile drive to Goose Rocks Beach, Kennebunk beaches and Kennebunkport center.

We had a wonderful time staying at the house. We were able to visit so many great towns in Maine and experience a lot of what Maine has to offer. When we were not out, exploring, we were back at the house which was off the beaten path for quiet and privacy. The house had everything we needed. The house is located on the harbor, and it was interesting to watch the tides go in and out We could walk into town, which was a plus. Our host were very friendly and responsive.

In town for a family wedding, this worked perfectly for us, adult grown children and elderly father. Very spacious downstairs, and bedrooms worked for our group. Would definitely rent again if back in the area.

We absolutely loved staying in this home. It was very clean and ready for us upon arrival. The home has a wonderful view from the front windows on a quiet, dead-end street. It was perfectly located in Cape Porpoise a few miles from Kennebunkport, lobster shacks and the best beaches. We hope to be back soon!

My family of 6 stayed here for 4 days in the middle of June 2023. What a gem of a home on the water in Maine! Exactly as described. Lots of space both inside & outside the home. Very clean & neat. Supposedly the original house was built in 1843, and added onto since. Quiet location. Peaceful watching the tide go in & go out. Enjoyable viewing the various seabirds hunting & swimming in the inlet. Lots of wildlife & birds in the woods behind the house. It was chilly but beautiful, only raining on the day we arrived & the day we left. We got fresh seafood & lobster (OF COURSE) at Langsford Road Lobster & Seafood House on the street just across the inlet. Super yummy. We ran for exercise along the local roads, taking in all of the beauty around us. We enjoyed talking with neighbor Dan, who’s lived there 60 years & has good stories to tell. The hosts were super responsive and pleasant with which to work. Note that there will be folded clean sheets on top of all the beds when you arrive as you are expected to make the beds upon arrival (so that you know the sheets are clean). A 5-star VRBO for sure! Thank you for the great memories! :)
