Year-Round Appeal While thousands of people visit the Kennebunks and Arundel in the summer, the region has something going for it year-round. Autumn: Veteran leaf-peepers know there’s no better place to be in all the world than New England in the fall. Sunshine is bounteous and the days are still pleasant, but the views – oh the views! Imagine the flamecolored leaves – gold, scarlet and burnt orange – against the blue of the sky or ocean and you’ll get the idea. The fall is also a great time to do some antique hunting, check out the local fairs, yard sales and farmers markets and, of course, take a walk on the (far less crowded) beach. Winter: Snowshoeing, cross country skiing, ice skating – these are just a few reasons to visit our region in the wintertime. Need a few more? How about cozy inns, restaurants serving up everything from comfort foods to haute cuisine, and plenty of pre-holiday shopping? Of course no discussion of winter in the Kennebunks would be complete without mentioning
the Kennebunkport Business Association’s Christmas Prelude. Now in its 32nd year, Prelude features two weekends of magical holiday events. Check out www.christmasprelude. com for more information. Spring: The flowers are bursting out, the temps are warming up and the beaches are nearly empty – spring in the Kennebunks and Arundel has great appeal for those seeking a quieter visit. The farmers markets are just setting up and offering the season’s freshest produce and treats, while garden centers are filled to the brim with plants and flowers. Summer: What can we say? People the world over travel to our region in the summer, whether it’s to spend some quality beach time, take in our history or maybe just a little shopping and dining out. You can go whale watching by day, eat a lobster on an outdoor deck by night, or simply pack a picnic and spend the entire day on the beach. Take in a play at the Ogunquit Playhouse or Arundel Barn Playhouse, or visit one of the area’s many historical offerings.

Walker’s Point
The most common question we get at the Chamber is, “How do I get to Walker’s Point?” The summer home of President George H.W. Bush and wife Barbara, Walker’s Point has been visited by presidents, foreign heads of state and celebrities alike over the years. More importantly, though, it has been a haven for generations of Bush family members, who have enjoyed idyllic summer days away from the pressures of the outside world. Walker’s Point is not open to the public, but you can drive by, or stop briefly at the designated parking overlook to snap a quick picture. Vehicles may only stop in the designated area; no stopping on the road is permitted. To get to Walker’s Point, take Ocean Avenue from Dock Square, 10 | visitthekennebunks.com
approximately two miles. The ride is beautiful in and of itself, with the Atlantic crashing against the rocks along the right side of the road. Just before you reach Walker’s Point you’ll see the special overlook spot (please obey the rules posted on the sign) on the right. Also overlooking the house and on the right is the Anchor to Windward, the town’s special tribute to “41” installed in 2009. It bears a plaque with an inscription reading, “For our friend and 41st President George H.W. Bush. As he was for our nation and world during four years of tumultuous and historic change, so, too has Kennebunkport served, in the words of St. Paul, ‘as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stead’ to him. Presented by those who love him as much as he loves this special place.”
Local Beaches
Mother’s Beach
Maine has more than 5,000 miles of coast and some of the most beautiful beaches in the entire state can be found here in the Kennebunks. Whether you’re a family looking to set up for that perfectly relaxing day at the beach or a surfer hoping to catch the ultimate wave, the beaches in Kennebunk and Kennebunkport offer some of the best fun in the sun.
Kennebunk, Mother’s, Middle & Gooch’s beaches
Beach Avenue, off routes 9 & 35 These long, wide sandy beaches (and even rocky Middle Beach) are the perfect place to walk, sun yourself, play in the surf, look for sand dollars or just enjoy the sight of the waves rolling into shore. There’s no better place to be on July 4th, when fireworks explode overhead in a myriad of glittering lights. There are lifeguards and porta-potties at both Gooch’s Beach and Mother’s Beach from July through Labor Day. Mother’s Beach has a new playground open to the public. 12 | visitthekennebunks.com
Local Beaches
Goose Rocks Beach
While visitors are welcome at these beaches, a permit to park at the beach is required. Day, weekly and seasonal passes are easily available at the Chamber of Commerce, some local lodging establishments, and the Kennebunk Town Hall. For more information and prices, call the Kennebunk Town Hall at (207) 985-2102.
Goose Rocks Beach
King’s Highway, off Route 9, north of Cape Porpoise At three miles long, Goose Rocks Beach is a favorite with walkers as well as the sand pail set. It’s wide, smooth and sandy, and affords wonderful views of Eastern Goose Rocks and Timber Island, just off the coast. Parking permits are required (note that Kennebunk permits cannot be used here) and are available at the Kennebunkport Police station, Town Hall, the Goose Rocks General Store and some accommodations. For information and prices, call the Kennebunkport Police station at (207) 967-2454.
Arundel Beach
Off Ocean Avenue, near the Colony Hotel in Kennebunkport This beach (also known as Colony Beach) is much appreciated by those who love to scramble on its rocks and watch the surf dash the shore. No permit needed. Kennebunk • Kennebunkport • Arundel Chamber of Commerce | 13

Life on the Water The Kennebunks and Arundel share a common seagoing heritage, and that love of life on the water continues today. While fishermen daily make use of the region’s piers, there are plenty of other ways to enjoy the beautiful rivers and ocean in the area. Options include deep sea fishing tours, kayak and boat rentals, whale watching trips, lobster cruises, schooner rides and more. If surfing is more your speed, Gooch’s Beach in Kennebunk is a popular spot, and surf and paddleboard rentals (not to mention wetsuits – Maine water can be chilly!) can be found nearby.

The Food Scene The Maine Lobster Council will tell you that the world’s best lobster comes from Maine. But it’s even better to enjoy that lobster when you’re eating it in Maine. Visiting the Kennebunks and Arundel, you’ll have the opportunity to do just that, whether you enjoy it at a seaside lobster bake, in one of the area’s lobster pounds or casual eateries or at a fine restaurant. You can have your lobster any way you like it, too, in a roll, as part of a pasta dish or in fajitas, or in any of dozens of different preparations, or simply with a little drawn butter on the side. And if lobster isn’t your thing, or you’ve simply eaten your fill, the region boasts numerous different cuisines, including New American, Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, Mexican and French. It also features dining establishments dedicated to the farm-to-fork movement, continental cuisine and pub fare. In fact, the Kennebunks and Arundel boast dining options of all kinds,
from a walk-up counter to a AAA Five-Diamond Award-winning restaurant and everything in between. And if you’d like to sample a little bit of the region’s offerings, Maine Foodie Tours offers a culinary experience sure to whet your appetite.

Hit the Trail
Scenic coastal views, rural back roads and friendly motorists make cycling in the Kennebunks a must do activity. The area is relatively flat and points of interest are easily accessible by bicycle. Whether you bring your own bike or rent one from one of the local bike shops, take some time out to relax on a bike. Here are some beautiful rides, sure to please beginners and expert bike riders alike.
52
Ocean Avenue and Cape Porpoise, Kennebunkport (8 Miles): Definitely bring your camera on this ride. Head out of Dock Square on Ocean Avenue with the water on your right. Ocean Avenue is heavily traveled so families with young children may want to take another route. You will be riding parallel to the Kennebunk River. Bear right at the Wildes District Fire Station and stay on Wildes District road all the way into Cape Porpoise. When you have had enough lobster, hop on your
bike and backtrack your route back into town. Goose Rocks Beach, Kennebunkport (11 Miles): From Dock Square take North Street to Arundel Road. Follow Arundel Road past the horse farm and take a right on to Goose Rocks Road. Ride Goose Rocks Road to the end and go straight across Route 9. At the end of the Dyke Road you will find the pristine Goose Rocks Beach. This ideal family destination usually has very limited parking, but you won’t have that problem with a bike. This also happens to be the ride with the least amount of traffic. When it’s time to return follow the same roads back to town. Kennebunk Beach, Kennebunk (7 Miles): From Dock Square go up the hill to the traffic light and take a left onto Beach Avenue. After a couple minutes you will see the Monastery. Please lock your bike when you enter, as bike riding is not
Hit the Trail allowed in the Monastery grounds. Continue down toward the beach by taking a left out of the Monastery back onto Beach Avenue. Kennebunk beach is now straight ahead about 1 mile. Follow the ocean for the next 2 miles. Where the road heads away from the ocean you will see Great Hill Road on the left. This dead end road borders the Mousam River. After you turn around take a left on to Boothby Road. This connects to Route 9 and will bring you back into the Port. This ride is good for adults and parents with children over about 9 years of age. Bridal Path, Kennebunk: Flat dirt path about two miles long that parallels the Mousam River in Kennebunk. This is an excellent ride for beginners and families. Park at Sea Road School on Sea Road for access. Wonderbrook Park, Kennebunk Muddy, hilly, technical loops of interconnected trails. They are short but fun and include some bridge and log crossings. This is best combined with a road ride because of the short distance. Located at 16 Plummer Lane, off Summer Street. Kennebunkport Conservation Trust, Gravelly Brook Road: Trails vary in length, width, topography and use. Some are conducive to bird watching and viewing wildlife, others for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. For more information on this site as well as other Trust proper-
ties, see www.kporttrust.org. Eastern Trail: The Eastern Trail, a 65mile section of the East Coast Greenway stretching from Kittery to South Portland, has entrances in both Kennebunk (at Kennebunk Elementary School off Alewive Road) and Arundel (on Limerick Road). The trail is perfect for walking and cycling as well as snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. The trail, which is approximately 10 feet wide, is also dog-friendly. For more information, as well as a map and trail rules, please see www.easterntrail.org. Â Kennebunk Land Trust: The Kennebunk Land Trust also offers scenic spots for walking, hiking and riding.

Getting Married
What could be a more perfect backdrop for your wedding than the beautiful beaches and deep blue water of the Kennebunks? How about a stone church perched above crashing waves? Or an antique farmhouse overlooking the marsh? Or a turn-of-the-century resort with a rolling green lawn? All of these venues – and more – are available for those looking to exchange vows in Maine. In the last decade, the Kennebunks have become one of the country’s premier destination wedding locations, primarily because of the local beauty, but also because of the many activities your wedding party and guests can enjoy here.
In addition to a variety of wedding sites, your rehearsal dinner (or vow renewal or other special occasion) can be as formal as a sitdown dinner in one of the region’s fine restaurants, or as casual as a beachfront lobster bake by the shore. The region is also rich in all of the services you’ll need for your special day, from photographers to caterers, hairdressers to event planners, cake designers to videographers. Your guests can even travel to your wedding on a trolley, or via a golf cart limousine!
Sunset kayak tour? Check. Sunrise breakfast on the beach? Check. Evening cocktail cruise? Check.
And what better place to honeymoon than here in the beautiful Kennebunks and Arundel, with accommodations ranging from historic bed and breakfasts to fullservice resorts?

Wedding/Events Guide
Downtown Kennebunk
Looking for a quiet place to take a stroll and experience a real New England town? Look no further than downtown Kennebunk, with its roots firmly embedded in centuries of history but planning ahead for a vibrant future. You’ll appreciate the benches, flowers and pedestrian plaza (a perfect spot to eat breakfast or lunch outdoors!) while strolling along past unique shops, numerous eateries and lovely parks. Downtown Kennebunk is where you’ll find the thriving Farmers Market from spring to fall, numerous events from May Day to Old Home Days to Winterfest, and ice skating at the Main Street rink in the winter. During the summer months, a shuttle runs from downtown to Lower Village, for visitors who wish to take in all that the area has to
offer without having to worry about parking. And speaking of parking, free municipal parking is available at the former Garden Street Market parking lot, behind Perfecto’s and Frameworks at the corner of Main and Grove streets. Heading north up Main Street, past the beautiful Kennebunk Free Library on your left and Town Hall on your right, bear right onto Summer Street. It’s there you’ll find the gracious sea captains’ homes of days gone by, as well as the most photographed home in Maine, The Wedding Cake House, on your left. Or you can head out to West Kennebunk from here, to walk or bike the Eastern Trail, stop for a bite to eat or drive through the countryside.

Lower Village
In this vibrant section of town, located just a stroll across the bridge from Dock Square, you can find shops offering everything from souvenirs to surf boards and fabulous eateries specializing in cuisines from all over the globe. The accommodations range from upscale inns to comfortable hotels to private bed and breakfasts and rental homes. Pause for a picture in front of the Kennebunk River Basin, or stroll the grounds of the serene Franciscan Monastery before heading farther down Beach Avenue to Kennebunk’s world-renowned beaches. Many of the annual Christmas Prelude events take place here. During the summer, a shuttle runs between Lower Village, the beaches and downtown Kennebunk.

Dock Square
The heart of Kennebunkport, Dock Square is full of the bustle and energy that draws people to the Kennebunks. From here you can take a whale watch cruise, browse through dozens of unique shops and experience the world-class cuisine for which the region has become known. Park on the street (be sure to obey the posted rules), in the for-pay municipal lot behind Alisson’s or at the free municipal lot on North Street next to the Village Fire Department and spend hours strolling, shopping and dining. On Memorial Day, take in the pageantry of the parade (the Bush family is usually in attendance), and return for the first two weekends in December, when Christmas Prelude
lights up the town and fills it with events from tree lightings to parades to craft fairs galore. Just up Spring Street you’ll find the majestic White Columns, where inseason tours are offered that will give visitors a taste of life in the past. Around the corner on Maine Street, historic homes – several of them now inns – are worthy of a look as you stroll or drive past.

N
Cape Porpoise
Not far from the Bush compound at Walker’s Point, just along Route 9, you’ll find the lovely village of Cape Porpoise. This authentic fishing village remains active to this day, with many lobstermen bringing in their catch here. Just across from the pier you’ll see Goat Island Light, a Kennebunkport Conservation Trust property currently being restored to its former glory. Cape Porpoise is home to lovely casual eateries, art galleries and shops, as well as to Atlantic Hall, where many different events take place. If you plan to visit, bring a camera, because Cape Porpoise is among the most picturesque spots in Maine. 60 | visitthekennebunks.com
Arundel
One of the fastest-growing communities in Maine, Arundel is a blend of future-thinking enterprises and rural charm. It is also home to the Arundel Barn Playhouse, where you can see up-and-coming talent perform in plays all summer long, as well as numerous eateries and shops. You can also access the Eastern Trail in Arundel (see our section on cycling/ walking for more details), find wonderful antique shops and enjoy stunning foliage on an autumn drive.

Area History Brick Store Museum, Kennebunk William Lord was born at Kennebunk Landing in 1799, the third son of Tobias Lord and Hephzibah Conant Lord. As a merchant and ship owner, Lord became one of Kennebunk’s most important patriarchs and citizens. In 1820 he married Sarah Cleaves of Biddeford, and they lived in what was then the Jonas Clark house at 20 Summer St. It sits high on the hill and is now known as the William Lord Mansion, a private residence. It was here that Lord and his wife raised their family of 10 children. In 1825, William Lord began construction on a dry goods store on Main Street in Kennebunk — the very building that is today the focal point of the Brick Store Museum. Initially known as Lord’s Store, it was unusual for its time by being constructed of locally-kilned brick, a far more expensive alternative than constructing from plentiful Maine timber. Although the brick exterior of the building remains relatively unchanged from
62 | visitthekennebunks.com
the 19th century, the interior has been altered significantly. At the time of William Lord’s death in 1873, he was considered among the wealthiest men in Kennebunk. Lord’s greatgranddaughter, Edith Cleaves Barry, eventually inherited the building and founded the museum on the second floor in 1936. She quickly overtook three other buildings on the block, and linked these historic structures inside. These buildings date from 1810 to 1860. The initial core of the museum’s collections came from the Lords and related families, but the museum today is a regional history, art, and archives center. The Archives Center is open for research when an archivist is present. The Brick Store Museum is open year round. Admission is by suggested donation, $5 per person. For museum information, call (207) 985-4802. — Brick Store Museum
Area History
The Wedding Cake House When James Hunt Barker first saw the Wedding Cake House, he was a young man just back from the Korean War. It was 1954, and Barker, a Kentucky native, had traveled to spend a week that August with artist Channing Hare. At a cocktail party given by Hare and attended by film actress Claudette Colbert, the artist talked about a house he had been trying to buy for five years. So the next day, Hare brought Colbert and Barker to that house.
Located in Kennebunk on the stately Summer Street, the building of the house started in 1815 and lasted 10 years. At that time, it was given to George Washington Bourne by his parents, as a wedding present. And it would come to be known as the Wedding Cake House. While Hare would never own the home, nearly 45 years later Barker bought it, and has it owned it ever since, becoming only the second owner not to be a part of the original Bourne family.
Museum in the Streets At 25 sites around town there are signs that identify the location and cite its historical significance. For more information, see www.themuseuminthestreets.com. Kennebunk • Kennebunkport • Arundel Chamber of Commerce | 63
Area History The Nott House Located in the heart of the village, this gem of Greek revival architecture reflects the lives of the Perkins and Nott families whose fortunes were connected to the thriving shipbuilding era of Kennebunkport, making the town one of the wealthiest in New England. The house was built in 1853, and original furnishings and French wallpaper reflect the luxurious living of the family. Guided tours are offered. Group tours are encouraged and are available upon request. For arrangements, please call (207) 967-2751 or email kporthistory@roadrunner.com. The Nott House is located at 8 Maine St., just outside of Dock Square, and is open during July and August, on weekends during Prelude, and other times by appointment. — Kennebunkport Historical Society 64 | visitthekennebunks.com
Arundel history In the mid-1600s, Arundel’s first settlers kept close to the coastline both for easy access to the ocean and to escape from the local Native Americans. The settlers finally abandoned the settlement in the late 1600s and did not return until around 1720 when relations with the Native Americans improved.
A
The new settlement, named Arundel, grew along the Kennebunk River. After 1750, people began to settle west of what is now Route 1 and started farming the rest of Arundel. Around 1800, as the religious climate changed, small churches and meeting houses served to draw the local people together. Although those small churches have disappeared, several of the early farms and a few of the farmhouses still exist today. When Arundel’s secession from Kennebunkport became official in 1916, it lost its direct connection with the coast and remained a rural town composed primarily of farms. Today, Arundel is one of the fastestgrowing towns in the state, and is home to both industry and local businesses, while maintaining much of its rural character. — Arundel Historical Society
