Make the Most of Your Kennebunkport Stay

Where presidents summer and shipbuilders settled

Kennebunkport unfolds along Maine's southern coast as a refined maritime village where Federal-era mansions line tree-shaded streets and the Atlantic crashes against rocky promontories. Known as the Bush family's summer retreat at Walker's Point, the town's character runs deeper—this was once a thriving shipbuilding center whose captains built the elegant homes that still define neighborhoods like Cape Arundel. Ocean Avenue curves past these estates and St. Ann's stone chapel, while Dock Square anchors the commercial heart with galleries and boutiques housed in 18th-century buildings.

Culinary excellence and coastal authenticity

The White Barn Inn Restaurant holds both AAA Five Diamond and Forbes Five Star distinctions, representing the pinnacle of sophisticated dining. Yet authenticity persists at The Clam Shack and throughout Cape Porpoise, where working lobster boats still tie up at weathered docks. This fishing village offers genuine maritime atmosphere at spots like Pier 77, while Goose Rocks Beach stretches 3 miles of white sand. The contrast between upscale resort dining and the salty character of Cape Porpoise defines the town's appeal.

Practical considerations

Portland International Jetport sits 30 minutes north, though Boston Logan provides broader connections. A rental car proves essential—seasonal trolleys serve sightseeing rather than practical transport, though private car services benefit business travelers.
