About this house rental

Situated in Goose Rocks Beach, this charming house for $460 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. Classic Maine marsh-view beach cottage. Steps from Goose Rocks Beach, in a beautiful cove in quaint, historic Kennebunkport. Grab groceries, park the car, forget the world and enjoy paradise!!! The house has three bedrooms - one queen room, one room with two twin beds, and one loft with a full-size bed. The living room and dining room span the entire front of the house with three walls of mostly windows overlooking the marsh. This is a classic, historic cottage, so the ceilings are not very tall and the home is not expansive. It’s about 900 square feet with everything on the first floor except the loft upstairs with the full-size bed. The kitchen is fully stocked and has a functional island with all full-size appliances plus other small appliances like a microwave, blender, toaster, coffee pot, slow cooker, etc. There is a laundry room with a full-size washing machine and dryer off the kitchen. The bathroom is good-sized and includes a corner standing shower and a sink with a vanity for storage. There are hooks on the backs of the bathroom and bedroom doors for wet towels and clothes. The house has heating in the winter months and air conditioning in the summer months. The linens are provided - the beds are freshly made up with clean linens before your arrival and bath and kitchen towels are also provided. Outside, the yard has plenty of flat space for yard games (cornhole and kubb are in the shed for your use), a picnic table, a 10' x 15' canopy, a hammock, six Adirondack chairs, and a propane grill. Goose Rocks Beach is a short walk from the house - it takes approximately 2 minutes to walk to the edge of the property, across the crosswalk, and down the beach path to reach the beach! There are beach towels, beach wagon, beach shade umbrella, beach mats, beach toys, four beach chairs, a paddleboard, two kayaks, oars, and life jackets for your use. This is a private home in a small town. The Town has some simple good neighbor policies to follow about parking and noise. The good neighbor policies are posted on the refrigerator. Also, the Town trash collection takes place early on Saturday mornings in the summer and on Friday mornings the rest of the year. We will ask that if you are staying on a Friday or Saturday, depending on the time of year, that you kindly wheel the trash bins out to the curb from the shed on Thursday or Friday evening, and, if it isn't check-out day, wheel the bins back into the shed on Friday or Saturday afternoon after trash collection has occurred. Check-in is at 4pm and check-out is at 10am. We are unable to provide early checkins or late checkouts because of the tight cleaning schedule. Thank you!

I recently stayed at Sunset Marsh with my husband and two springer spaniels. We have been staying up and down the Maine and NH seacoast for years. This was our favorite place and we will return. We were there during one of the recent storms. We lost power for a bit- flashlights and lanterns were ready to go and easy to find. There were some particularly high tides that made for a boat house vibe. The elevated and strong foundation kept us safe. When the tide receded the beach was wonderful to explore. Jill was available for all questions and was warm and friendly.

Our goal was a comfortable home with a large table, good view from windows, and near the ocean. This is exactly what we got!

We had the best time during our stay! The cottage is amazing and there are so many nice details from the high quality linens to the very well stocked kitchen. There are games to play and tons of options on TV to watch. Even comfy thow blankets to get cozy! The location is perfect. We loved watching the tides come and go from the salt marsh and sunsets were stunning. The beach is less than a block away. We highly recommend and hope to return for another stay!!

Just like all the other reviews I read before going, we all thought the house was very clean and comfortable. Kitchen very well equipped . We lived looking out at the marsh. Goose rocks beach is right there so we had nice morning walks on the beach. No idea what this spot would be like in the summer but it was very quiet for us this weekend. Although it is a small house, it is laid out quite efficiently . We had a great time

I had to go to Kennebunkport and Portland for work and had my partner and fur baby come with us. This place was truly one of the best places we have ever stayed at. It offered space to work at, a setting and view like no other, and we felt so welcomed and invited from the second we walked in. Jill was not only accommodating but so on it with the communication and impeccable hostess vibes. Thank you for giving us a place to rejuvenate, get work done, and make some lifelong Maine memories. WE WILL BE BACK!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!! :) -Geff/Brad/Niko

What an amazingly clean and well stocked cottage. The windows in the living room overlook the marsh and I could feel my blood pressure dropping by the minute. The beach is a two minute walk away. Loved this place.

Loved it and we'll be back. Especially loved the ebb and flow of the tidal pond and the Loons there. Craig and Kathy
