Kennebunk is a quintessential New England coastal town with a walkable downtown, sandy beaches, scenic coastal drives, good seafood and cafés, seasonal arts and outdoor options—quiet and comfortable for multi-week stays but with enough local life to keep you engaged.
You’re a short drive from Portland (about 27 miles) for a bigger food, brewery and arts scene, and Portsmouth, NH (about 30 miles) for extra nightlife, shopping and travel connections.
