An anchor to Windward. Walker's Point Estate (also known as the Bush Estate) is a private family estate and former summer White House of the Bush family in Kennebunkport, Maine. The estate has served as the summer residence of the Bush family for over a century, beginning with George Herbert Walker in the early 1900s. Walker's Point is not open to the public. You can drive by or stop briefly at the overlook. Vehicles are only allowed to park in the designated parking area; stopping on the road is not permitted. Alternatively, coming from Kennebunkport, park on the shoulder of Ocean Avenue and walk about a kilometer to the overlook.

Although the trail lacks blazes or markings, it is easily to get to the summit of this ~800 foot mountain. The main trail up begin from Water Street/Route 11 near 520 Water Street in West Newfield and is clearly marked by a sign for the state's wildlife management area.

After passing through a forest and over small stream via a footbridge, you cross a dirt road to continue on the trail. After passing a stone wall the trail begins to get more steep as you climb to an open summit with panoramic views. The total length of the trail to the summit is about 1 mile, but if you wish to add a little extra milage to your hike, there is a westward trail (marked as a Dead End) that provides an alternative view over farmland before the summit.
