Vacation rentals with a kayak in Kennebunk

We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful and quiet time of rest at The Rising Tides. The setting is absolutely serene. It’s very secluded and quiet, the perfect place for a week of rest and relaxation. We went hiking on the Cliff Trail (15 minutes away and a very nice hiking trail), watched the sunrise at the Lands End store on Bailey island (15-20 minutes), and kayaked in the cove. The grill was very nice and we enjoyed cooking on it regularly. The place was very clean and ready on our arrival. The host communicated very clearly. You will need to follow her driving directions as they are very clear and helpful. In our four days there we only saw 1 neighbor - and that was as we were leaving on the weekend. There’s a grocery store only 15 minutes away and we were able to stock up on our way there. Really, this was one of our favorite places we’ve ever stayed. We really enjoyed having a few options of things to do while also being able to just do nothing on our vacation in a quiet place.

Wonderful week at Michael’s place. The house was beautiful, the location unbeatable and view breathtaking. Thanks for a great week!

Darryl’s house was extremely enjoyable. It had everything we needed, and we had a very relaxing time at the lake. It felt private, amazing views, and was very comfortable.

Me and my family had a great time at Steve’s place. The weather was a little windy so it did interfere with our plans at the lake but Steves place made up for it with the great pool which was not that cold and lets not even say the hot tub was amazing! Steve was attentive and letting me know how to check in, how to check out and what needed to be done. Thanks!

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Julie's lakeside home for Father’s Day weekend. The setting was serene, with beautiful views of the water, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy quality time together. The home was well-equipped and comfortable, offering everything we needed for a memorable stay. Julie was a fantastic host, ensuring that our experience was seamless and enjoyable. We truly appreciated the peaceful ambiance and thoughtful touches throughout the space. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lakeside retreat!"

This has been by far the nicest place we have stayed. Super clean and nicely decorated. Wonderful communication by the hosts. Perfect weekend getaway.

This beautiful lake front home was a great space for our group (8 adults, 1 infant, dog)! Plenty of space for everyone to gather, inside or outside. Lake amenities were such a plus! Carl and other co-hosts were so responsive leading up to our stay and during!

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Lots of amenities and the hosts are very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. It was roomy for our family of 5 and the beds were really comfortable. I’d say it easily accommodates 6-7 people. If you are adventurous and don’t mind sleeping in a small loft or a basement setting you could fit 10-11.

We had a great time at Robert’s place. The home has everything you could want, and there are plenty of things to do in the area. It was a great home base for our weekend! The kids loved the game room!

They were accommodating, flexible, and very gracious. They had an entire binder of information with details about where to find fans, towels, flashlights, how to work the shower, heat, grill, and about anything else you can think of. It also had emergency services, restaurants, places to have a good time, and good details about checkout expectations. Overall we were extremely happy with the property and our stay, and were honored by the personalization they did for us specifically as it was our Honeymoon and they wrote us a custom note by hand for when we arrived. Highly Recommended - Will Rent Again!

Laura was an amazing host! She was quick to respond to some things that popped up that we needed help with. The house is exactly as pictured and described. The area is very peaceful, and we used the kayaks daily. While there weren't "extra" items like salt and pepper or any seasonings for cooking or larger bottles of shampoo and soap, the kayaks made up for it! I was very concerned about one bathroom for 4 people and the rooms being so close together, but none of my concerns became an issue. This home is a great value for the area, and we highly recommend it!

Lori was a wonderful host for our trip up to Maine. My girlfriend and I enjoyed doing yoga in the entrance room when it rained and a nice sunrise kayak trip out on the lake across the street. My in-laws stayed with us too and we all had great laughs together and enjoyed good food all weekend long.

We went for our baby moon. The location… ambience… all of it, created a relaxing and nice way to get away from the kiddos and celebrate adding an our third! We’ll come back with the kiddos next time though because the pond, paddleboards, and kayaks are more than worth it!

Wow! This place was amazing. My family and I had the most incredible time relaxing and enjoying a long weekend. Rob was so responsive and helpful in every way possible. If I could have given 6 stars on everything I would. I can’t wait to stay there again

Loved our time here! It’s about a 40 minute drive from Portland and then 5-10 from Brunswick. The neighborhood is quiet and perfect, exactly what we needed to relax! We loved coming back from Portland and grabbing dinner and gelato in Brunswick, such a nice way to unwind from a long day. Highly recommend and would love to stay here again :)

Helen's home was in the most beautiful location, very peaceful and the perfect spot to unwind. Sitting out on the deck looking off into the water was the most amazing feeling and we also had amazing weather to enjoy some canoe rides with our dog, which was her first time so that made a wonderful memory. The layout of the home, the sliders to the deck and access to the water, there is no other way vacation! We didn't want to leave, hoping to be back!

We had the absolute best time at MJ’s place, highly recommend !! The house is spatious yet very cozy and quiet, with a nice back porch to sit and enjoy the surrounding woods! Home is also very close to town and to Poryland/coastline, and the cleanest lake to swim in that we’ve ever been to! MJ was very helpful and quick to respond. Stay here! We hope to return sometime soon!!

We had such an incredible stay! The first day was pretty rainy, but the house was so relaxing and comfortable that it didn’t matter - we enjoyed staying in and looking at the gorgeous view of the lake while doing jigsaw puzzles near the fire. When things did clear up, we had a great time playing in the yard snd kayaking. I was surprised at how quiet it was, especially during Memorial Day weekend. The beds were super comfy, kitchen was great, shower and tub were wonderful. Lisa left great instructions and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. And she was very kind in allowing us a late checkout, which was very helpful with three young kids. I can’t wait to visit again!

The cabin was cozy, the view of the lake was incredible, and Bonnie was a great host!

Does the cabin look perfect in the photo? It's better. Does the yard look like the perfect place to forget the rest of the world exists? It is. Are the White Mountains a place that make you feel like the psychological mountains in your life are just a little smaller? They are. We don't have enough good things to say about the Cabin or communicating with Cassouki. It's rare to step into a space that feels like it was designed with intention on every level - from the scents in the air to the textures of the cabin to the quiet confidence in every object's placement. The Conscious Cabin doesn't just reflect a designers eye, it reflects a storyteller's heart. I've stayed in more than a few retreats, but this is the first one that felt like it had something to say--and somehow said it quietly enough to let us hear ourselves again. Stay here.

We had a wonderful weekend here! The house was nice and well-equipped with everything we needed. Had fun floating in the lake and wandering around Bridgton and Norway.

We absolutely loved our stay! Everything about the cabin was exactly what we needed for our extended weekend in Maine for my nephew's wedding. The cabin itself was super roomy and comfortable for the five of us. We were supposed to be seven, and even then it would've been plenty of comfortable, cozy space. We didn't think we'd have much time to hang out at the cabin because of the wedding, but we got to sneak in some beach/lake time on the last day. Alexa is an amazing hostess. From the minute we checked in, she texted to make sure everything was as expected. I had a question about the kayaks, and within moments she replied with an answer. My family and I have been to Bridgton every summer since 2009. This was our first time staying somewhere other than our usual spot. I would totally go back--especially because the cabin is clearly very dog friendly and we have two fur babies. Whether you are looking for a summer by the lake or a winter on the slopes-this place is perfect!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The pond was beautiful, the people friendly. We relaxed on the patio taking in the views, listening to the frogs & loons. Hope to come back again!

Third visit in three years for a weekend fishing getaway. Great location, beautiful property. Excellent hosts. Looking forward to a return visit.
