    I had the best breakfast of my life at Bufflehead Cove. Cornmeal buttermilk blueberry pancakes. My entire stay at Bufflehead Cove was perfect. It's a very charming place with truly comfortable rooms. What a bed! Would love to go back again.

    This was our second visit and it was just as nice as our first two years ago. The inn keepers are warm and welcoming, the rooms and property are beautiful and serene and the breakfast is delicious! We will definitely be back.

    Our daughter planned an anniversary get away for my wife and I. Upon arrival, we were met at the front door by Erin, who gave us a very warm welcome and made us feel comfortable and at home. Our room was very clean, and tastefully furnished and decorated. We especially looked forward to the breakfasts. They were superb. We also got to meet some of the guests and had enjoyable conversations. We would highly recommend a stay at the Bufflehead Cove Inn in Kennebunkport, Maine.
