About this property

Charming Waterfront Retreat Overlooking Kennebunkport.

The Boatyard is a unique boutique condominium located in a turn of the century old boatyard building. Lovingly restored with only 6 units, this serene location is steps from the historic village of Kennebunkport. No car needed as you are within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach.

As you sit with your morning coffee out on the veranda and watch as the town awakens, the peacefulness of the area will captivate you. Bikers and joggers can be seen as they start their day. Enjoy a quite paddle with your canoe or kayak that you can launch right outside your door from our private dock. Your choice of golf courses is just minutes away.

After a full day of activities, relax on the deck with a drink with your loved one while watching the changing tides and the lights come on across the water. Dine in or choose from a wide variety of fabulous restaurants.

Maine and Kennebunkport - the way life should be.

We are memory makers. We invite you to enjoy our little piece of what we call heaven.

Kennebunk Condo

The Boatyard is as advertised. The location is ideal. No car is needed; we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Sitting on the deck watching the sun rise over Kennebunkport was wonderful. Would definitely stay at the Boatyard condo again.

Perfect Spot

The deck was our favorite spot for morning coffee, evening wine, or just watching the town! The location is great! Walking to all the downtown locations was an easy walk and so was walking to the beach if you wanted to! The beach parking pass was a great bonus! Everything was very clean and comfortable! Our host was so responsive to any inquiries I had. Great place to stay!!!

Thank you for your kind words. I totally agree with you about the deck. Love watching the town wake up seeing the lights across the water at night. We are happy you enjoyed your visit.
