Kennebunk House | Shingle Style Cottage on the Kennebunk river, overlooking Kennebunkport.

4 Bedroom House in Kennebunk

Bufflehead Cove (formally Bufflehead Cove Inn) is hidden away in the woods on the Kennebunkport tidal river, overlooking downtown Kennebunkport.
Situated just one mile from Kennebunkport village, this house is close enough to all the activities the area has to offer, yet secluded enough to offer peace and privacy.
Bufflehead has four lovely bedrooms. Each room is complete with either a king or queen size bed and private bathrooms. Three of the rooms include whirlpool tubs and all but one room has a working gas fireplace.
As a guest at our beautiful home, you can surround yourself with complete privacy, or journey into the quaint historic town of Kennebunkport….the choice is yours.
It was built in the late 1800s by local boat builders. The downstairs floor is first cut maple and many of the very large windows have the original wavy glass. This classic shingle style cottage is filled with local history and hidden charm. Don’t forget to ask at check in about the phantom candles!
The property is half a mile down a quiet gravel lane in Lower Village, Kennebunk just around the corner from Kennebunkport village. It is located on the tidal Kennebunk River. Five acres of field and woods surround the property and yet the house is only one mile from Kennebunkport center and two miles to the beaches.
The view downriver is of the village of Kennebunkport and upriver to the Arundel Golf course.
Four bedrooms offer private baths, whirlpool tubs, gas fireplaces, and lots of privacy.
There is a large downstairs living room with a wood fireplace, comfy window seats, and views from all the windows of the tidal river. A dining room extends from the living room and can seat 8 guests.
The property has a full kitchen with a gas stove and four ovens. The kitchen is being fully renovated this winter ( 2021) as it was an inn kitchen for 35 years, and though it functioned well, it needs some updating. We will be posting new photos once the work is done.
There is a laundry room off the kitchen which has two dryers and two washing machines. We provide laundry detergent and dryer sheets.
Enjoy watching the tide rise and fall from our front porch.

Summary: Great home by the river with ample room for a group travelling together. Check in with Jennifer was very informative and we appreciated the checking in during our stay for any questions about the house or the area. Kitchen is well stocked with all the necessities. Kennebunk beaches 5 minute drive away. Parking passes were provided but best to go early as limited parking spots available. AC in all bedrooms but not in the common areas. We loved eating breakfast on the patio and enjoyed our stay.

Summary: The house is as advertised and was perfect for our two families of four (that included 4 teens/young adults). Plenty of room for everyone to relax. The wrap around porch is a wonderful place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a cocktail in the evening. It is also in a great location - walkable to downtown Kennebunkport. We would definitely stay here again!

Summary: Pros: the property was beautiful, and the room setup worked well for our group. This place was fully stocked with games, books, puzzles, and kitchen equipment. The main room and porch were really nice, and even though we came during a heat wave, it wasn't too bad, especially with air conditioners in the bedrooms. The location was great, being so close to town. Cons: The previous host's daughter took over this year, and I think there's been some bumps in the transition. Another person checked us in, and said there were no kayaks available or places to fish onsite. Two days later I was able to speak with the daughter, who said that over the winter there was a terrible storm that wiped out their riverbank, so there was no safe way to access the water on site. That is totally understandable, but had we known ahead of time, we either wouldn't have brought all the life vests/fishing gear, or we would have brought my SUV that could transport kayaks. She did apologize and tried to find other options, and was on point communication-wise from that point onward. We were the first guests of the season, and I think they weren't quite ready for us, possibly due to everyone focused on cleaning up from the storm. There are some various areas of the house/property that looked like they could use some updating/deep cleaning/maintaining. We did still have a really great stay, but they should update their listing to make it clear that there is no water access for the time being.

Summary: The house and surroundings were lovely. On this trip we stayed in two houses back-to-back, one in Cape Cod and this one. This one was by far the better house. The house has 5 suites, all with private baths, perfect for us, as a large group. The kitchen is well equipped and spacious. The washer/dryer set up is very nice.

Summary: Eight women who have been friends since we started medical school 40 years ago take a trip together every year. Most of us had somehow never been to Maine before, so this marvelous house in such a quiet and beautiful location was perfect. We loved all the fireplaces and reading nooks and porches, and put the kitchen to good use. The house sleeps 8 easily, 10 if you don't mind two people in a queen bed. Harriet gave us great suggestions on where to go for our daily long walks and good places to eat. It's an older house and has its quirks, but that added to the charm. It could not have been a lovelier week and we were all sad to leave.

Summary: Five long retired AF officers and their wives gathered here for our annual reunion. It was a great spot to enjoy each other and the surroundings. The house was perfect, especially the circular dining room table with room for all of us. We also thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent porch where we loved watching the tide go in and out as well as the beautiful geese. Thank you, Harriet, for being so welcoming and making sure everything was perfect for us.

Summary: The place was great. We needed 5 equal bedrooms and this came close. We had 10 total in our group, 5 brothers and sister and our spouses. The inside of the property was very tastfully decorated and despite the rainy week the house offered plenty of room.

Summary: This home on a tidal river is always warm and welcoming and so spacious yet not overwhelming for two people. It’s tempting to return with our family, but we love the quiet of this deeply peaceful place. The verandah, the hammock, the bathtubs! The deep window seats! A chaise lounge on the bedroom balcony. The best spots ever for reading. We didn’t cook on this trip, but the kitchen is well-equipped and inviting.

Summary: The property definitely met the needs of our group of 10. The location was very convenient for a great number of activities, restaurants and beaches. The owners were very responsive and quick to answer our questions. The VRBO pictures were accurate to the property with the exception of having a dock at the location (kids were a little sad about that one)…extra bonus…great property pup, she is so friendly!
