We loved staying here - the house is spacious and comfortable and walkable distance to York Beach village. We enjoyed eating meals on the deck, and coffee on the sunporch in the morning. Outdoor shower is great for cleaning up the little ones after the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed staying at the house! It was very comfortable for our family trip of 5 adults, 2 children, and a toddler. The house had an ample amount of beach chairs and other supplies that made life much easier! We enjoyed the sunrises, walking to the beach and downtown area, and short drives to other local attractions. Worth the stay!

Our week in York

We had a wonderful time during our beach vacation! The house was spacious, clean, and provided everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The best part was the stunning view of the ocean—waking up to that every morning was a treat. We loved the convenience of being able to walk to the beach daily, making it easy to soak up the sun and enjoy the water. Overall, it was a perfect spot for a peaceful and rejuvenating vacation. We would love to come back next year.

Perfect location for a family weekend away

My family and I had a great stay at this home for a long weekend in September. We loved how close we were to the beach and would walk down that way every morning. The house was the perfect size for our group and had a nice setup. We also loved how close it was to both short sands and long sands beaches. We hope to return again!
