An almost $800,000 renovation in 2010 brings this grand old Captain's mansion back to its original grandeur. Antiques throughout the many rooms and the frequent passing of the Kennebunkport horse drawn carriage brings one back to that slower, more quaint part of American history. Morning coffee and evening drinks on the porch are just perfect for watching the river boat traffic and the children taking sailboat lessons at the 'Arundel Yacht Club' next door.

Summary: We had a great extended family getaway weekend at Old River House! We had family members ranging from 2 yrs to 86 yrs old and there was something for everyone. The location is amazing, close to everything and was walkable to shopping etc for ALL of us. The hosts were so helpful and responsive when we needed, and otherwise let us enjoy our time. The house is thoughtfully furnished and included everything we needed. The small park area across the street was great for letting the kids get some energy out, and the house had games, puzzles and books to keep people occupied as well. Amazing, priceless memories made, thank you so much to Scott and Cheryl!

Summary: Staying at the Old River House in Kennebunkport was an absolute delight for me and my eight friends. From the moment we arrived, Scott and Cheryl were incredibly gracious and generous. Although we knew all the bedrooms were on the second and third floors, they went above and beyond by setting up a bed in the spacious dining room for one of our guests who couldn’t manage the stairs. Our friend mentioned it was an extremely comfortable bed! The house itself was immaculate, adorned with beautiful antiques and furnishings. Each room having its own sink was a wonderful surprise and added convenience. The kitchen was fantastic, equipped with amazing appliances, and conveniently located next to the main porch. This made it easy for us to grab a snack or refresh our drinks while enjoying the beautiful view from the porch. Plus, the Nespresso machine available to us was a nice touch! And the location of the Old River House is unbeatable! Whether we were heading out for our Pineapple Ketch sail or making multiple trips into town for breakfast, shopping, or dinner, everything was just a short seven-minute walk away. We are incredibly grateful to our hosts for making our four-day weekend so memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a large home centrally located in the heart of Kennebunkport that can accommodate many people while still providing everyone with their own bedroom. Cheers!

Summary: 12 old friends do a golf weekend in KPT every fall. This property is fantastic for a large group; 10 bedrooms (real bedrooms) and spacious kitchen, living and sitting room; large deck. Best of all, short walk to downtown KPT. Owner lives next door and was so accomidating. An older home, but well maintained and so much charactor.

Summary: The 10 bedrooms, generous indoor and outdoor space, made this perfect for our family reunion. We loved being able to visit snd share meals on the veranda or indoors in the ample living space. An added benefit was the location—an easy walk to shops and restaurants in one direction or the ocean in the other direction. The historic house and views of the river were another plus.

Summary: This house is perfect for a large group that appreciates the history of the Kennebunkport area. You can't beat the location - river views and a 5 minute walk to everything in Dock Square. Scott and Cheryl are terrific hosts, very responsive and welcoming. Our big group loved the house!

Summary: The Old River House is an historical building within walking distance of everything Kennebunk and Kennebunkport have to offer. Scott and Cheryl are there to meet you upon arrival, and are always available for all questions/concerns. Check in/check out is very well laid out and very little is left to chance. Although the property is well maintained and the beds are very comfortable, keep in mind that this is a very old house: steep stairs, a little musty, no modern decor, etc. If you have old relatives, there is no first floor bedroom, and it may be difficult for them to climb the stairs. We were a group of college friends 50+, and it was perfect for us; however, for a family with small children or one with elderly parents, this may not be the ideal place for you.
