This property was wonderful! So clean and comfortable. We were in Portsmouth for my niece’s wedding and this was the perfect spot. It is so close to downtown. I honestly wish I had more time to explore the surrounding area. Highly recommend this property!

This was our second girls’ weekend and the house is as charming and accommodating as we remembered! There is not a single thing we wondered about or looked for that Michelle hadn’t already taken care of. The one caution continues to be the very steep stairs to the additional bedrooms and bath - our group handles it but something to keep in mind. The location is so centrally located - this time we enjoyed Kennebunkport’s Christmas Prelude. Can’t wait to visit again!

Convenient location. The highest level bedrooms would benefit from having curtains so people can dress more comfortably and sleep more soundly. Very steep stairs to climb so people with mobility issues would have difficulty navigating higher floors.

The house was immaculate and contained everything you will need for a comfortable stay. Beds were very comfortable, and we really enjoyed the outside deck and back yard. Michelle was extremely responsive to any questions we had. We were close to downtown and were able to walk most places. We had dinner reservations both nights but decided to drive and both restaurants were close by and delicious. All in all it was a great stay. There were 3 of us.

A perfect location

We had a month stay here and loved every minute! The owner is wonderful and responsive. The place is gorgeous inside with plenty of room. So nice to be able to have the dog with us! A walk to downtown, kayaking at the boat launch just steps away, and 20 minutes to beaches! Highly recommend.

This house is on a nice quiet street. But it was very close to downtown for shops and restaurants. We had a question about the lock on the door and the owner responded quickly.

Great location, well appointed home.

Great stay to celebrate my son’s graduation from UNH. The house was well appointed and comfortable. Michelle was extremely responsive to questions and was gracious enough to allow for early check in and late check out. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate so there was no taking advantage of the great outdoor seating. Would stay again.
