A Four Season
Bed and Breakfast Inn Located In
Kennebunk, Maine |
|
|
 |
Waldo Emerson Inn is a colonial
style inn listed on the National Register of Historic
Places. The Inn is the oldest remaining house in Kennebunk
and has had several famous owners. The original Dutch gambrel
was constructed by one Waldo Emerson in 1753. Waldo,
great-uncle of Ralph Waldo Emerson, the poet/essayist,
made a tidy profit building clipper ships on the river behind
the house. |
|
|
The
breakfast room is unchanged since it was built the year that
George Washington was inaugurated, with a handsome fireplace
used every morning during the autumn and winter months. The
signatures in the windowpanes were scratched with diamond
rings by many of the inhabitants who lived here between 1800
and 1850. A bountiful, three-course breakfast served
between 8:00 and 9:30 each morning with the menu changing
daily. |

|
|
In spring,
the inn and the town are abloom with tulips and daffodils. The
air is brisk, the shops and restaurants are open, and the
crowds are light. |

Waldo Emerson Inn is a wonderful
recollection of the past. You enter directly into the
251-year-old keeping room with its hand-hewn oak timbers
hung with dried flowers, pewter, and copper. |
|
|
In summer, flowers abound
in the inn's gardens. We are just moments from the beach
with parking permits and chairs provided. There are dozens
of excellent restaurants nearby. |
|
|
The
guests' parlor is a spacious, comfortable room with sofas
and wing chairs. You're welcome to kick back and relax with
a good book in front of the fire, watch cable TV, or enjoy a
game of chess. Complimentary coffee, tea, soft drinks, and
snacks are available. |
 |
|
|
In autumn, the Kennebunks
put on a spectacular show of fall color followed by lots of
winter activities nearby. Enjoy a mug of fresh-pressed apple
cider beside a roaring fire in the parlor. |
|
|
 |
The Inn offers four guest rooms
each with handmade quilts, antiques, working fireplaces and
private baths. During your stay, please stop by Mainely
Quilts located in the carriage house next to the Inn. |
