My son had his wedding there on Sunday. I chose this location because it was exactly what they wanted: an ocean view, outdoors, quiet, and not over the top. It allowed the families of the bride and groom to meet and spend some quality time together. The setting was beautiful and charming, with its heritage buildings adding a special touch.

The location is lovely and the views of the water were amazing. The room itself was small (queen bed, small square footage, door couldn't open al the way due to AC unit) and dingy (old carpet, carpet had stains, etc). The overall space (hallways, dining room, etc.) felt old without any charm.

This was an amazing place to stay. The breakfast was good and the view from our room of the ocean was beautiful. The grounds were beautiful as well. The parking was a little tight at our house but we all made it Its a old home restored and beautiful. The huge tub in our room was wonderful after a long day. The staff could not have been more friendlier.

A Getaway in York Maine

This was a quick get away for my husband's birthday. We chose York Harbor Inn because it was close to the water and had a room with a deck at a very reasonable price. Although it was too cold to be out on the deck, the large window in the deck door let us see the water and sky. The hotel restaurant had a high end restaurant with excellent food and service. The morning breakfast buffet was very good. The room was clean and comfortable - the mattress could have been a bit more cushy. We would definitely stay here again when the weather is warmer!
