3 Porpoise Pl is located in downtown Cape Porpoise, an ideal location for family reunions, or similar gatherings such as Kennebunkport, like Christmas Prelude, etc.
LUPINE LODGE has 10 bedrooms, plus a den with a king sized sofa sleeper with doors that close for privacy. Downstairs there are two bedrooms with King sized beds, one with a Queen, and one bedroom with a Full and twin bed. There are two full baths and two powder rooms on the first floor of Lupine Lodge. Upstairs Lupine lodge has 6 more bedrooms, two with King beds, two with Queen Beds (the Queen bedrooms have private bath ensuites with showers), one with twin bunk beds and a daybed and the last with a Full and twin bed. There are four more full baths upstairs. So, this totals 6 full baths and 2 powder rooms.
Downstairs there is a massive 40 foot Great Room with two fireplaces, two screened porches and a large deck. Lupine Lodge has a new state of the art kitchen with all stainless appliances and granite countertops. Lupine has an oversized Weber gas grill with a direct gas feed so you will never run out of fuel!

* Located off of Langsford Road in the quintessential fishing village of Cape Porpoise, Maine, Lupine Lodge offers you plenty of upscale amenities to host your next corporate event, family reunion, or a just a family vacation.
*
THE REQUIRED 3 NIGHT OFF SEASON MINIMUM IS ABSOLUTE--no rental less than 3 nights will ever be considered for this property.


And while located in the very heart of Cape a Porpoise within two blocks of town center, the house is surrounded by woods and natural Maine habitat. Walk behind the house on your own path to Bradbury’s market or the Church on the Cape. Or walk two blocks on the sidewalk to the ever popular Wayfarer Restaurant, the Captains restaurant for great seafood and home made desserts, or Cape Porpoise kitchen for morning pastries and coffee, take out sandwiches for your beach picnic, or take out prepared foods for dinner. Nunan’s Lobster is 4 blocks away and the Cape Porpoise Ice Cream shop is a dangerous 3 blocks from Porpoise Place. Or head up the street 2 blocks to Langsford Road Lobster and wait while they cook the freshly caught lobster you just picked out. If you are up for a half mile walk or bike ride you can head up Pier Road, enjoying beautiful views of CP Harbor, until you arrive at the working fishing/lobstering pier where you can watch the fishermen in action, sit out on the benches and view Goat Island Lighthouse, listen to the melodious fog horn, launch a kayak or indulge in the three renowned eateries–upscale Ultramar, with gorgeous views of the harbor, Casa 77, a very popular bar with lots of sports and other memorabilia, including autographs all over the walls of some of sport’s most acclaimed…and of course, George and Barbara Bush, or Cape Porpoise Chowder House where your food is made to order and brought out to you to eat while watching the boats and harbor.

If you want to head to the beach, you can buy your weekly pass at the Kiosks near Goose Rocks Beach or Kennebunk Beach, or in Kennebunkport Town Office. lf you want more beaches-- 3 miles in the other direction is Kennebunk, Gooch’s & Mother’s beaches. And if the restaurants and shops in Cape Porpoise aren’t enough, drive less less than 3 miles to highly acclaimed Earth restaurant at Hidden Pond (reservations book up weeks in advance so keep that in mind), the Tides at Tides Beach Club or check out the 50 plus ice cream flavors at Goose Rock’s dairy. And don't forget about DOCK SQUARE, Kennebunkport's bustling village just 2 miles away. With its numerous restaurants, shops, rental boats and site seeing, it is a perennial favorite.

The property exceeded our expectations. It was very well appointed, spotless, and a great location. We met the hostess briefly and she was very nice. We would certainly love to come back and highly recommend especially if you have a large group. We were ten women who annually get together for a much needed girls weekend. Couldn't have asked for anything better! Ty!

Lovely Home
We had a group of 13 famly members who had been traveling together for several days before arriving a Deborah's property. We all loved the spaciousness of the common areas plus plenty of bedrooms AND bathrooms to accomodate us. The two porches and the fire pit were especially enjoyed. Deborah proved herself to be a very considerate hostess, even dealing with an issue while out of the country for her son's wedding. We really appreciated her helping to make our stay great!

What a Beautiful Property for a 65th Birthday Weekend!
My husband’s group of friends have been together since high school and we’ve had a tradition of all going away together on each monumental birthday (every 5 years) since their 40th I believe. This year was the most monumental as his group all turned 65. After lots and LOTS of ideas of where to go we settled on Kennebunkport and Deborah’s rental. Oh my gosh we’re we delighted with our choice. The photos are great, but I will honestly tell you it’s so much prettier in person! The property was absolutely immaculate. This is my very first time using a short-term rental company and I was a bit nervous as to not what the group would think. My concerns quickly disappeared upon walking through the door! The outside, is deceiving and you would have no idea how BIG the inside is! Everyone had their own bedroom (couples along with singles!) and bathrooms were either privately off the bedroom or just outside each of the bedroom doors. The main area was stunning and stocked amazingly well with everything from lobster pots to 2 coffee makers to beach towels and board games. It was an easy walk to the adorable corner grocery, to the ocean, to a number of great restaurants. It was a lovely weekend with a few showers but we were all so content staying indoors during the stormy times playing board games or sitting on one of the two large screen porches. Without a doubt I would HIGHLY recommend this property! Thank you Deborah for the most memorable stay!

Pictures do not do justice for this home. It is beautiful and the rooms were so much larger than we thought they would be. Super clean. We had 17 staying very comfortably. A huge bonus were the screened in porches. And Cape Porpoise was a very cool location. It was very close to Kennebunkport but far enough to enjoy the quiet.

Perfect location for vacation
This was our second year staying in this home and it was still amazing. The home accommodated 16 people ( 4 families) and the host was just wonderful. The location was quaint and Kennebunkport in the winter is beautiful. We had to ask the host for some assistance with the grill that had tipped over from the wind and she was so responsive. The house had everything we needed. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and family space to gather. The fire pit outdoor came in handy and the gas fireplaces inside were just wonderful on those cold nights. We would consider renting here again in the future. Thank you for for sharing your home with us. -mark

Spacious Home
This home easily accommodated our large family. It was a perfect mix of bedrooms to accommodate couples, teens, and children- with each family getting its own bathroom. We loved the two enclosed porches and yard space. The kitchen was the only space we wish we had a bit more room to accommodate a large group. The location allowed you privacy, but also ease to walk to the grocery store or grab a bite to eat. Everything else is a short drive away. The owners were extremely friendly and quick to respond to questions. Overall, the house was perfect for our family vacation, and would definitely think of returning if we came back to Maine.

Perfect house
We were 15 -- 8 adults and 7 children ranging in age from 14 to 8. The eight bedrooms were perfect: each pair of adults had a good sized room, and the kids managed to sleep in all the beds in various combinations of cousins. The eight bathrooms ensured that no one had to say "are you done yet?" Most impressive, we could not find anything that the house needed that it did not have -- and we put a lot of pressure on that by eating home every day (food allergies). Our host, Deborah, had offered to bring anything we were lacking, but we never needed to call on her. Deborah's recommendations for places to go and see and experience are excellent, and should be heeded. She was right on for everything. We didn't plan on returning to the Kennebunkport area -- we like to try new places -- but this house may yet lure us back. It was quite perfect.

Plenty of room, very clean, great location, but problem with accessibility
We rented Lupine Lodge for a one-week family reunion of 10 people ranging in age from 89yo to 9yo. The Lodge is large and well laid out. There are many places to gather as a group or to find an escape from the crowd. Please note, accessibility is not as described in the listing – more on that below. The location is ideal. Much within biking/walking distance and a short drive to downtown Kennebunkport. The property is equipped with just about all you would need for the beach. The kitchen is adequate if small for the size of the house. We did a lot of cooking and could have used more pans and a dish rack. There is a good-sized lobster pot however and a small food processor. Bedrooms were a good size and well appointed. Lots of bathrooms. Showers were on the small size. Deborah, the owner, replied to messages quickly. She was responsive to our request to provide a ramp. We did have two odd experiences. When we received the welcome letter, it indicated we needed to make all the beds ourselves, despite our being charged a linens and cleaning charge separate from the week’s rate. We took that in stride, but had to dispute a torn grill cover a few days after we left. FOR THOSE TRAVELING WITH SOMEONE ELDERLY OR WHO USES A WHEELCHAIR, there are accessibility issues to be aware of before deciding on this property. Access to the two entries is up a large granite step which is longer and wider than an average step and another small step from the landing into the house We sincerely appreciated that Deborah arranged for a portable ramp for the front door. The first-floor’s 2 bedrooms are accessible, but this is not true for the baths. They are small and arranged so transferring to and using the toilets was difficult. Sink counters and mirrors are tall. Both downstairs bathrooms are tub/showers which makes accessing the shower difficult and without a shower chair, one unable to walk will need to take a bath. My 85-year-old mother also had trouble getting over the edge of the tub. I hesitate to write any complaint about properties that are listed as accessible, because there are so very few of them. I am extremely grateful for the few that try to provide a place for all to enjoy. When we run into a property that isn’t quite where it needs to be for those in wheelchairs, we feel compelled to note it so others can make informed decisions when choosing a property and to give some guidance to the owners.

The host, Deb, was awesome to work with while setting up this family reunion weekend getaway. Lupine Lodge is the perfect house for a large gathering. This beautiful property and its amenities were exactly as advertised. Its located in a very quiet neighborhood. The main living area was ideal for our entire family to gather and socialize. The two screened in porches were added bonus areas well. All of the bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. Also, the multiple bathrooms throughout the home gave everyone the sense of privacy you sometimes need. The home is a short walk to a fresh seafood market, grocery store, and several restaurants. We enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to go back to this or any of Deb's lovely properties.
