Located at the North East end of the beach,this is our three bedroom, 2 bath Expanded Cape at #10 Elwyn Lane which is our three house driveway off of King's Highway. Not what you typically think of for a cottage at Goose Rocks Beach this house was originally built as a year - round retirement home for my grandparents. You enter the house through a breezeway-mudroom that abuts a two car garage. The garage is used for storage of the owners automobile and generous amounts of indoor storage for your bicycles and your beach chairs. The breezeway opens to a large, sunny eat-in kitchen with a working raised hearth brick fireplace. Enjoy the sunny kitchen window nook if you can find time to relax with a book. Off the kitchen is the grande living-dining space......'Grande' for sheer square footage and windows.......400 square feet of hardwood floors and 4 picture windows let in quite a bit of sunlight, wonderful little hilltop views, and even a small sparkle of blue Atlantic Ocean and tidal creek waters, Working fireplace in living room.....small amount of free firewood out behind the garage! This house is not furnished in the typical beach-wicker..... well worn family antiques and oriental rugs set a calming mood. Oil paintings and tick -tock clocks compliment the serenity......but do not worry...it is a wonderful house for children with much square footage for play, make-believe, and games. Down the hardwood hall from the living area is the first floor bedroom with two twin beds. Windows on two sides, views of the oak-woods, an antique dresser....... The master bedroom......again larger than normal at a 'cottage' is awash in lilac paint, queen size bed and more antique dressers. Windows on three sides, it is tucked into the rear of the house The master does have a connected bath with tub and shower. Off the kitchen there is a utility room with washer and dryer and the second bath.....3/4 with a custom built tile and glass shower perfect for visiting guests and those staying in the twin bedrooms. There is a third bedroom on the second floor of the house. It has two twin beds, a bureau and two old living room chairs and a small TV....so actually makes a nice 'get away' from the people staying on the first floor. Look at our VRBO pictures to get a good idea of the whole house and it's location / setting... We do provide all sheets and towels and the house is fully equipped so as we like to say 'All you need to bring is your suitcase and food!' Located just a two block stroll to the public access point to Goose Rocks beach...the walk is maybe 5 minutes, but the garage also comes stocked with 3 'beach bicycles' to make the short trip to the beach even more convenient. Kennebunkport is one of Maine's prettiest villages with dozens of shops, galleries, and restaurants many in historic seaside buildings. Tennis is available for a membership fee at the Goose Rocks Beach Association right at the beach or at no charge 4 miles away at Town of Kennebunkport park on Beachwood Avenue. Three golf courses are located within 10 miles of the house. Come join us and make some Goose Rocks Beach memories to last a lifetime. ' Keywords: House, cottage

We loved the quiet setting with its beautiful views of sunrise and sunset. Big living room windows gave continuous updates as the salt marsh filled and emptied with the tides. Antiques filled the home adding to the sense of another era, but modern conveniences made daily life easy. Excellent appliances, well stocked kitchen, and ample space for a family of 5 or 6 made all of the meals a breeze to prepare. A working fireplace and a light snowfall contributed to a magical Christmas memory during our stay. We would come back in any season. Bruce is an excellent host, so attentive and flexible.

I was unable to enjoy the property due to a positive covid test but my children and their partners thoroughly enjoyed their time at the cottage. Bruce was a fantastic communicator giving detailed info on the property and all pertinent info (checking in/out, amenities,etc).

We loved our quiet escape to Kennebunkport. We're in New England, less than two hours a way, but in COVID, a change of house with new scenery is fantastically awesome. Wife and I, a high school aged teen, and my Mom, a senior, were on the trip. The first floor bedroom and bathrooms worked great for my Mom. We enjoyed the living areas and spent our days in the kitchen and living room, or out hiking around on the beaches or parks. The house itself was plenty large for the four of us. The owner, Bruce, was fantastic in all ways. Checking in and out was easy, and he was available to answer any questions as needed. The house was the best stocked house rental we've stayed at. We brought some of our own extra stuff but didn't need most of it. Small touches like candy waiting in a tray, was super cool. Wifi was plenty fast, even though all four of us were on it at the same time a lot. The house has a new heating system (we stayed in winter) and you can tell the house is kept up. Outside shingles and roof look new and the house is Maine cute. Proximity to the beach was great. We had a great week and would have been happy to stay longer! Thanks, Bruce!

Fantastic location, just a few minutes walk from beautiful Goose Rocks Beach. Also convenient to downtown Kennebunkport. We really enjoyed our stay at this property -- lovely view of the river from several of the rooms and distant glimpses of the ocean from the living room. Very quiet neighborhood. The property is very homely. Due to COVID, we cooked at the cottage most of the time and found the kitchen well equipped for cooking. Bruce provides everything needed for a comfortable stay and was good about communicating. Would definitely return to this property.

Loved the fact that the only thing I needed to bring was food. Loved the convenience of being able to cook our own food in a kitchen that was fully stocked!
