Summary: This house is beautiful - inside and outside! Great outdoor secret spot for morning coffee or reading; we spent a lot of time outside sitting near the soothing sounds of the goldfish pond. This house is in the best location - right off Ocean Avenue and Dock Square, you can walk everywhere. Inside is gorgeous and comfortable, kitchen has everything you need. The Carriage House is also a great place for guests.The owners have a notebook filled with information about things to do, restaurants, shops, places to visit, and very interesting information about this historic home.The owner is very accommodating, helpful with any question, easy to communicate with and is just so darn nice.

Summary: This is our second stay at this amazing home. Conveniently located to all the fun and warm and cozy after a long and cold day of Prelude activities. This is our favorite Kennebunkport home.
Christopher P. Dec 21, 2024 12:37:55 AM
Summary: The house was an antique and gave beautiful vibes of classic New England. Also less than a 5 minute walk from all the Christmas action for prelude. It was a perfect home, location, and experience for our little one. Would recommend to any one looking for a prelude fairy tale. 20/10

Summary: We had a wonderful 9-day stay at the Oliver Davis house! The house is old but completely renovated, well-maintained and very well supplied and organized. The owner was quick to respond to some inital questions and comped us breakfast when the stove pilot ignition went out at the end of our stay.

Summary: We just got back from our stay and my friends and I can’t say enough about how perfect the house and location were for our Christmas prelude getaway. The host kept us informed and everything we needed was at the house. Christmas Prelude and Kennebunkport is just magical!
