So my husband and I decided to take a totally last minute vacation to Maine and if you know this area you know that everything is booked well in advance and you are pretty much left with Motel 6 if you book late. For about 12 years we came every summer to Ocean Park, Maine for a week and we rented the same house over and over. It was so lovely to spend lazy days at the beach watching our kids (we were always 3 couples) make wonderful childhood memories. My daughter is now 19 and this is the first time we have come to Maine on our own. So two weeks ago I scoured the internet and found a lovely new place. The Lodge on the Cove is owned by a hotel group that has bought up older properties around the Kennebunkport area and completely refurbished them. Our motel just re-opened a month ago and is still unknown so that is why there was still a couple of spots left. Bright white with splashes of bright colours everywhere it is hip and fun and very comfortable. There is a pool (the ocean is about 1 mile from here) a lovely little lodge with a restaurant and free bikes to ride. Some of these are my photos (a couple of them I took late in the day so they are a bit grainy) and some are from the website.
