About this house rental
5BR/3.5BA home is located steps from a tidal river beach that’s perfect for kayaking & canoeing. This house is FULL of amenities. Renovated & updated in all the best ways, modern coastal design enhances 3 sunny floors. Relax in the living room and sunroom, or watch a movie or the big game in the media room . Surprises await in snack room, and a new hideaway speakeasy. Enjoy meals on the rooftop deck & dining patio. A gas firepit sets the scene for s’mores and conversation. Central AC is a plus.
LIVING AREA
With an electric fireplace, smart TV, and comfy furniture, the living offers a peaceful retreat. Guest accounts are available to watch your favorite series or movies on streaming services. The sunroom includes banquette seating around a small table, perfect for a game of checkers or chess.
A completely unique addition is the new speakeasy. Preacher’s Pub is secretly hidden behind a bookcase and is a comfortable and charming place to spend an evening "away" without leaving the house!

There are retreats for the entire family in this well-outfitted home by the sea. Our four family units were able to have space away from one another if they wanted because there was the deck, living room, speakeasy, firepit, upstairs TV room, and screened-in porch where the little girls liked to play.
I was impressed that the management was responsive to our questions and requests, and I would recommend this vacation home for families.

We had an amazing time here at this home. Had everything we needed. Was clean. Was very spacious. The speak easy room was a big hit, and a nice little spot to talk and have cocktails in. We loved that the house was so close to the water and the views were beautiful. The check in and out process was easy and convenient. Would definitely recommend this home and would stay here again the next time we travel to Maine! Thank you!

We had such an enjoyable time with the family. The house was beautifully decorated, comfortable, cozy and had so many amenities. My family surprised me with a 5 course meal prepared by a chef and the house had everything she needed in the kitchen to prepare and serve dinner (pots, pans, utensils, serving platters, wine glasses….). The kids loved the movie room, candy room and the Japanese soaking tub while the adults relaxed in the living room and speakeasy. House was close to down town and easy for day trips to Ogunquit and Portland. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Property is excellent for families. Walking distance to small beach area, bikes provided, lots of small sport type gadgets on site to keep kids engaged. Sitting area above garage is beautiful but obstructed by crossing of power lines. Inside of house and rooms are extremely well decorated and maintained. I'd rank interior in top 5 of 75 VRBOs we have stayed at.
Building of nearby house has lots of early morning traffic - Oct. of 2023.

Amazing trip. Only thing was no one put out the trash on Tuesday so by Sunday we were swimming in trash. I think the note said Saturday but I checked with neighbors and they said it is Tuesday ??

Thisgood Cove is pretty spectacular. The rooftop deck, speakeasy, and candy room were a big hit. It was the perfect home base to relax after a busy day at the beach or visiting the beautiful sites. I enjoyed having my coffee while walking in the cove during low tide every morning. The house is well-appointed and well stocked. We definitely hope to come back next summer.

Thisgood Cove was the perfect house for our extended family to spend a weekend in Kennebunkport! The house was spacious, updated, and well-stocked (details like the candy bar and extra toiletries/cleaning supplies). We especially loved spending time on the rooftop deck with views of the water and in the speakeasy after dinner. Although there are only 3 showers in the house, there are two extra half baths and mirrors in some of the bedrooms, so we were able to all get ready at the same time. We loved the location - on the quieter side of Kennebunkport with easy access to outdoor activities (beach right down from the house, walk along Ocean Ave, marina behind Breakwater Inn) and dining (Mabel’s, Coveside Market, Cape Porpoise Kitchen). Highly recommended!

This was an amazing property. It's situated on a quiet cove that was perfect for the kids to explore and splash around in. The house has EVERYTHING you could need and the hosts have made sure to leave extras in the bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, etc. We could not have been happier with the location, cleanliness and amenities! We will definitely be back!

Our stay at This Good Cove was great! We were there to celebrate our Mom’s 85th birthday. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of space, but all of us kept hanging out in the Speakeasy, lol!!! This is a very clean home and it has everything!!! When they say well stocked kitchen, they mean it!!!
