About this house rental

Situated in Cape Porpoise, this charming house for $945 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. KPort Concierge is happy to invite you to this one of a kind property. Built in the 1860s, it is full of charm and vintage touches with a cool old barn, lovely marsh views, and tidal access out to the open ocean. The barn has been converted into a play space for both adults and children alike with a ping pong table and shuffleboard downstairs, and additional sleep space in the form of a long, built-in daybed and a playroom full of activities and games for the kids upstairs. This connects to the old part of the house via a mudroom, where you will find life jackets for everyone in the family and beach gear should water activities be on the agenda. The old part of the house includes a full bath with a shower, clawfoot tub, a ground floor bedroom with a queen-sized bed, and a custom-built staircase made from salvaged wood from Brooklyn, New York. Upstairs you will find the “bunk room” with 5 built-in twin beds and a large tv- perfect for movie and sleepover nights- the kids’ #1 request when building the house. There are two additional guest rooms with queen-sized beds and the primary bedroom, boasting soaring, beamed ceilings, a 65” television, and a balcony with the best water views in the house. Restoration Hardware beds and Puffy Cloud mattresses combined with ceiling fans and screened windows for Maine nighttime breezes ensure a pretty perfect night of sleep. An en-suite primary bathroom and a guest bathroom with a shower and clawfoot tub complete the upstairs. This house has a king bed, two queen beds, and eight twin beds.  Downstairs, the heart of the home is the great room extension. This room houses the kitchen, living, and dining areas. This room is made for entertaining and congregating, with an open kitchen with a professional-grade gas range and modern appliances, a salvaged wood Island with seating for 3, and a vintage wood dining table that seats 12. The living space is decorated in serene neutral tones and includes a 65” inch tv, a gas fireplace for cool nights, and sliding doors out onto the back deck, with views out to the water. Out back, you will find a built-in stone fire pit for s’mores nights and a stone pathway out to the water, where kayaks and paddle boards are available for use. Explore the marsh waterways that weave through the Rachel Carlson Nature Preserve adjacent to the property (excellent for bird watching) or paddle out to the breakers and watch for the big boats heading out. Aside from having its own village with a gourmet market, a grocery store, retail shops, several delicious dining spots, Cape Porpoise is only a couple minute drive from downtown Dock Square in one direction and a couple of minutes to Goose Rocks Beach in the other direction. Being compact, everything in Cape Porpoise is an easy walk or bike ride from their house, and almost everything they could need is right there. A typical visit involves stocking the house with groceries from Bradbury Market, breakfasts spent at Musette or Cape Porpoise Kitchen, picking up lobsters from Nunan’s Lobster Hut, shopping for house goods at Farm + Table, and dinners or drinks at The Ramp, Pier 77 or The Lost Fire. These options are within one mile of the house, making leaving Cape Porpoise during any visit entirely optional. The recreational activities listed are available either on site or nearby; fees may apply. This home is locally managed by KPort Concierge. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook @KPortConcierge. Please note that if you are unable to travel due to a medical emergency, travel insurance can protect your vacation investment. KPort's cancellation policy is firm to protect the financial interests of our homeowners. Short Term Rental License #STR21-00290

We had a fantastic stay over New Years - four families (grandparents and cousins) and the place felt ideal for a reunion. It's beautiful. The space is perfect for families with kids because there is an entire separate space for games. The only 'challenge' may be deciding who gets the master suite (which is absolutely gorgeous). We will certainly be back!

Ten ladies celebrated my 75th birthday in Cape Porpoise and had a blast. Everything was perfect. The communication from the property manager was outstanding! We loved the fire pit! Great house to vacation in!

The freshly redone property at 41 Mills easily handled our large group of 9 adults and two children, 3 & 5. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The large kitchen & dining area was well appointed and made meals easy for us. Kayaking & paddle boarding right from the backyard was a treat. The game room was perfect for a rainy Saturday. Our expectations were pleasantly exceeded.

Our family was absolutely thrilled when we arrived to find the property nicer than we could have imagined, even nicer than the VRBO description. The comfort, style, relaxed ambiance and lovely setting were ideal, with a layout that could suit varied groups, including the young children with us, and space and privacy for all. We were already familiar with the area, appreciating the quiet escape from crowds and traffic, yet with lobster pounds, chowder shacks, local grocers and shops close by. We loved the ease of launching kayaks from the back yard for daily paddles and enjoyed short excursions to a choice of beaches, nature preserves and coastal towns. The property was superbly managed, with quick and helpful response to any questions. Our three generations had a wonderful week here and look forward to returning.

Impeccably clean, artfully de cored, comfortably furnished, well stocked, peaceful relaxing surroundings and view. We were having a sister's retreat, but it would also work very well with the family with children. Highly recommend

What makes this stay unique to us was how well equipped it was for all age groups. Kayaks, paddleboards, canoe, lifejackets, etc. for some, a child's playroom for the very young, ping-pong and shuffleboard for indoor activities, the fire pit, beach towels and chairs, corn hole, beach towels, outdoor shower, two bikes, etc., etc. We could have pretty much shown up with nothing because everything was provided. Dining room table sat a dozen comfortably, bathrooms were well stocked, lovely view off the back deck. All in all a great place for a family gathering. I grew up not far from this location and certainly enjoy this end of town. It's a shot walk to the grocery store and a quality take out sandwich/coffee/etc shop. We felt we got our money's worth out of this stay!
