Great location and Owners!!!!

This is our 4th year staying in this property. We absolutely love it. Pamela and Mike are fantastic owners, quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Our kids look forward to coming to York and staying in the house. We also rent the house next door for my SIL and her family so the kids can get together with their cousins. The property is well maintained and they supply so much stuff for the beach, bikes, ping pong(the kids love playing on a rainy day or when we get back from the beach) and the house is fully stocked with everything you need. It’s walking distance to the shops and Short Sands. It’s a great house in a great location.

Wedding at Union Bluff

We absolutely loved our stay! Mikes communication was top notch, the house was beautiful and had so many fun surprises (bikes, ping pong table, games, etc) it was such a close walk to union bluff for the wedding that we attended. I realized that parking looked a little limited but our hosts worked with us to figure out parking spots. I would definitely rent again if I were in the area.

10/10 stay

This house was a great find - large, clean, reasonably priced, and a great location, with only a 5-10 minute walk to a town center with food, a beach, shops, and activities, and short drives to more restaurants, antique stores, and fun activities. House was very clean and well-stocked, there was just no body wash in the entire house so we did need to buy a bottle. My one other issue is that we had to wash towels before checking out - a bit of a hassle after hosting a big group and needing to check out before 9:30. Other than the soap and the towels, great house with a great location, I highly recommend.
