First Families Kennebunkport Museum

Lovely home dating from the early years of Kennebunkport history. Amazing that the house and furnishings had been left to the Historical Society. So many items and rooms look like the family had stepped out for a moment.

Best for of learning, welcoming staff, not a museum but a well preserved estate to learn about local and national history.

Really enjoyed the hour tour here by Bob. What a memory for detail he has! The home is in great shape, with lots of original wallpaper, rugs and furniture. Despite huge crowds in the town this Friday noon, there were only four of us on the tour. There is so much rich history to be found in the lives and artifacts of the past on display here. Well worth your time!
