Circa 1812. In the National Register, the Captain Lord Mansion was built during the War of 1812 and is one of the finest examples of Federal architecture on the coast of Maine. The home rests at the edge of the village green within view of the Kennebunk River and within walking distance of the town's many historic sites. The romantically appointed guest rooms include roomy four-poster beds, gas fireplaces and heated marble and tile floors in the bathrooms. Some rooms include a double Jacuzzi tub.

Number One Romantic in my humble opinion

The Capt. Lord is in the Registry and is so very, very romantic. Beginning when you drive up the atmosphere lends to the romance. The rooms are tastefully appointed with period furniture, wall coverings and window treatments. Romantic CD's are available and flowers are in every room . We stay in the Oriental when we visit. The black and white tile bathroom floor is heated, the corner hot tub is perfect for two. The bed is fit for a king and queen. The friendly staff is always on hand. If they know it's a special occasion you might find a surprise waiting in your room. Morning breakfast is delicious and fresh coffee and cookies are available throughout the day. There is no such thing as a bad room in the mansion. I hope you have an opportunity to stay. It is clearly my #1 of romantic Inns.

A showcase of elegant architecture. Meticulously clean and splendidly appointed. It's a shame to have to leave.
