We had a lovely stay in Kennebunk! It was easy to walk to the beach or the town, and the home itself is sweet and comfortable. We all slept will in the beds and highly recommend this rental overall.
The home was lovely, spacious, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. The walk into town was short, so it was nice to leave the car behind. We would absolutely stay here again, as well as recommend to friends and family!

Perfect off season getaway
This house is in the perfect location and is absolutely beautiful. It is also a plus that it is dog friendly. It is a quick walk to town and very quiet in the evenings. The entire house is spotless. We honestly felt like we were at home.
We had a great time in Kennebunk. The home was immaculate, super cute, and very roomy and comfortable. This spot was very conveniently located near great dining and shopping, but was also central enough to see many of the local towns on the coast with just a short drive.
It’s exactly like the pictures. Everything is provided for you down to the coffee pods. It’s super close to everything. Even the beach if you’re up for a nice stroll. Unfortunately there was roadwork being done during our stay so we had to drive during the day but that didn’t deter us. We specifically chose to go during the off season so no complaints. We look forward to a future stay most likely during the off season again to avoid crowds.

Great Location
The Cottage was in a great location to town, very clean and very comfortable. Stocked with all the kitchen equipment. We wish there were comfortable Adirondack chairs or rockers to enjoy the backyard.
Home as photos depicted - exceptionally clean, well decorated with nice furniture, spacious and convenient location. Enjoyed morning coffee in front porch sunroom and nights in living room with fireplace. Would highly recommend! Pet friendly for our 12 yr old lab was a plus! Had a great week in this New England home!

Perfect Stay in Kennebunk
The house was a perfect stay for our little family. The open layout meant kids could play and watch TV while we made dinner and visited with family. The yard and patio was perfect for firepit and making smores. My kids and wife loved the little window seat, so that was a great memory to have. The location was perfect with a quick walk into town, and close to everything. Overall the house was perfect and already looking forward to going back!

So pleased!
My family and I really enjoyed spending a week at the Quaint Bungalow. The house was so comfortable and cozy! The location being just a short walk to Kennebunkport, was very convenient. The delicious local restaurants and cute shops were a great perk! We were talking about coming back before we even left! Thank you so much!
The house is better than pictures shown on Vrbo. Very spacious. Beds were very comfortable, including the pull out couch bed in the den. Knowing there is no AC, was excited the bedrooms had window AC units.
It is a short block to really nice breakfast/lunch restaurant and walking distance to Dock Harbor. Will consider this house again for future east coast trips.
We do an annual Christmas shopping weekend and this year decided to try Kennebunkport. The house was perfect for the 4 of us. It was very clean, comfortable and within walking distance to local restaurants. The only issue we had was the kitchen wasn’t well equipped if you like to cook. There were no large pots, or cooking utensils but we were able to make it work. We loved the house and are hoping to go back in warmer weather.

Wonderful home close to town
The Quaint Bungalow is just as it sounds. You feel at home the minute you walk in the door. The open floor plan, welcoming fireplace and living room, and closed in front porch provides plenty of areas to sit and relax. The bedrooms are great sized and very comfortable. The house is easily walkable or a 30 second drive to Kennebunkport and all of the shops and restaurants, and a short drive to the beach. My 5 year olds favorite part was the chipmunk (he named chocolate chip) that met us on the driveway every morning. Wonderful house!

Great Home Kennebunkport
This house was on the main road on the edge of Kennebunkport making it easy to walk to town and enjoy all that the town offers without having to figure out parking. The house was clean and in the lovely condition it appears online. We had 1 mix up with a bed needing sheets but with a quick text was immediately rectified. Great house, great location. We didn’t cook because of all the great restaurants but the kitchen is fully stocked. Wonderful place!!
We loved staying at Quaint Bungalow in Kennebunk. Small "study" off the kitchen is perfect for a third bedroom...we had a blowup bed for a 3 year old. The master is quite spacious. Bathrooms are both more than adequate...downstairs is a walkin shower, upstairs a tub/shower. The open concept is perfect and the year round porch is beautiful. Location is perfect to walk to town but bring a stroller for the littles. We had no trouble parking for the Kennebunk beaches 3rd week in June. We had an issue with the finicky lock code to get in but we received excellent help from the folks at Vacasa. Overall, I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to be close to the action but not in town.
Lovely well equipped home walking distance from restaurants, shopping, docks, etc. The cottage is updated with large bedrooms and beautiful bathrooms. We picked a bad week to be there and did not realize there's no A/C. The exterior lock is a real challenge and super frustrating (it consistently times out before the 10 digit code can be entered). The cottage sits on a busy road with a narrow drive and no place to turn around. I'm sure it's not an issue in the off season. Overall, we appreciated the cottages but will likely not book again for the reasons noted.
Perfect location. We were a short walk from everything kennebunkport and we could walk right out the front door and access everything. House and property are beautiful.
