Kennebunkport Captains Collection- Kennebunkport, ME

Consisting of four historic homes once owned by the daughters of Caption Daniel Walker, the KCC is surprisingly design driven. From the formality of the Nathaniel Lord Mansion to the breezy lightness of the William Jefferds house, each property is impressively styled. 

Exploring the Collection during the inn’s off season was an exciting adventure, as many guestrooms were unoccupied and open for inspection. The take away is this: although all date to the early nineteenth century, each house has its own distinct personality; each room’s furnishings and layout unique. Here, the original architecture informs the updated designs, with a dash of drama thrown in. 

Cozy and comfortable, both the common areas and the guest rooms are outstanding. Located in a leafy residential area, it is a quick walk to the wharf and the waterfront, making it the ideal location for easy exploration of the area.
