Family owned and operated in York

The Kinton + Taddei families welcome you! Our roots are from various parts of New England; from Woburn and Arlington, Massachusetts, Hamden, Connecticut, and Dover, New Hampshire, we all made our way to beautiful York, Maine. Our individual paths crossed over the years and we have collectively all been residents of York, Maine for over 30 years. Erin, Mike and Mark have served the public in a variety of ways including the fields of education, law enforcement, and the medical profession. Lauren (owner of The Opal Society), Thomas (co-owner of Southern Maine Lobster Company), and Anna (owner of Anna Grace Design) are all local entrepreneurs and their expertise and services include cosmetology, graphic design and the lobster industry.

We are hard-working people that value family and the relationships with our friends. Over the years, and through life experiences, we have been fortunate to come to understand and appreciate the gifts of humility and gratitude.

We purchased the Whiting Cottage in January 2022. After many hours of hard work, tough decisions, and difficult times we stand on our feet today very proud of our accomplishment. The amount of blood, sweat and tears that went into restoring and “shining up” the property has all been worth it. Knowing this, it was an easy decision for us to want to share its historic charm, elegance, and allure; it is truly timeless. It is our honor to have you as our guests at the Whiting Cottage while you “experience” York with all its history and beauty.

We are vested in this property and take great pride in being able to share it with you. Please take this opportunity to enjoy this home, the local environment, and the serenity; but most importantly, we respectfully suggest that you do your best to put “work” on hold as you relax and enjoy each other's company. We wish you the very best during your stay and certainly hope you come back in the future. And with that, we humbly share our family motto with you…
“The best is yet to come”.
