Kennebunk and Kennebunkport, known as the Kennebunks, are two coastal Maine towns full of lobster shacks, stunning architecture, popular beaches, and that rocky shoreline Maine is so well known for. I quickly fell in love with these sweet little towns, read on to see my recommendations for this perfect coastal holiday.
Where to Stay
They both have a love of art and there are so many unique and beautiful pieces throughout the inn. The living room has a fireplace which is the perfect spot to relax with a glass of wine after a long day of exploring. Or, weather permitting, you can sit outside in their adirondack chairs and watch the sun go down! Kate is an amazing chef, and every morning the breakfast served is extraordinary. If you are lucky you’ll get some of her homemade scones!
