We have stayed many times, Summer, Fall and Winter. A quick walk to Kennebunkport, the Kennebunkport River or the soothing Maine ocean. The side-street location is quiet from traffic.Hosts Sarah and Erik are always gracious, welcoming and casual. The fresh and spotless, rooms are lovely each with their unique personalities and sophisticated amenities; creamy bedding, fluffy thick towels and robes,... More

We needed a quiet weekend away as a couple, and the Captain Jefferds Inn was just perfect! In-room fireplace, soft linens, a sumptuous breakfast Sunday morning. Really appreciate the warm, genuine people there. What an elegant, quiet place off-season; walking distance from restaurants. Highly recommend! More

Our goal is to create a warm, welcoming experience for all of our guests and the quiet season certainly lends itself to adding a bit of extra coziness like crackling fires and fluffy down comforters.

I recommend the Inn without hesitation. We went with a group of girl friends on a January weekend and enjoyed drinks, cheese and crackers by the fire in the parlor both nights. Breakfast is outstanding with fresh fruit in yogurt, muffins, scones or pop overs all made by the proprietor fresh that morning! and either stuffed herb crepes or apricot... More

Thank you for your helpful constructive criticism. We continually learn from and acquire good ideas from our guests. Your idea of a built in loveseat for the Baxter porch is one of them. We too have looked at that little table and chairs, and although we didn't love them we would move on to something else for a lack of... More

My husband and I decided that because we love the Captain Jefferd's Inn so much, we would try a trip during the Christmas season. Once again, the Bed and Breakfast was superlative. And we have found on the last few trips that many of our fellow vacationers are repeat customers just like us. That says it all. More
