It is a peaceful setting and very quiet but only an interesting walk to the centre of Kennebunkport. The restaurant was closed when we were there, but there's good lobster to be had in the centre of the town! A... More

I called the desk to ask about the wi fi connection and was told that I could probably get a signal if I took my computer outside to use it.....Really! Old motel with old linens. Breakfast area not always attendant. No silverware one day, napkins another. I even went into the kitchen area to try to find some....disaster!
