Family friendly, full of amenities. Excellent spot for families, not for couples looking for quiet or pool space. Bicycles available to ride to beach or town. Rooms have doors with windows so that people/kids walking by look right into the room. Pool is full of kids and is part of a pool membership which includes more kids than normal.

We were in room 31 at the end of the run of rooms which was great. Lovely views of the inlet (when the tide was up) and in a beautiful wooded setting. Staff really helpful and room was clean, comfortable and quite large with a sofa and small dining table with kitchen. Also a bath (lower for ease of access) with shower over. Beautiful area all in the woodland and Kennebunkport was a great little town. Can highly recommend.

Great spot for kids & families

We had a lovely stay at Lodge on the Cove with two families including 3 children under 4. Our rooms were walkout near the main reception and simple but comfy beds and clean. We really appreciated how “kid friendly” this property was - the pool was great, towels, toys & bottled water readily available, nice continental breakfast with some items available throughout the day for snacks, candy bar, smore kits etc. these small touches really made it feel welcoming! Will recommend & return. Thank you!
