A great get-away

Great location!

Perfect cottage for a getaway to York Beach! Owners have thought of every detail, including yard chairs, beach chairs, beach towels, and a small basket of snacks! Very clean and comfortable, and easy to work ACs and fans. Beach is across the street- you can see the ocean from the house! Very pleasant way to spend the weekend with my family.

The cottage was spotless — and pleasantly adorned with beach-friendly quotes, sayings and decorations. The coffee was plentiful, the bed was great, the TV had everything. If we’d gone closer to warm weather, we’d have used all the beach gear as well. The small shower wasn’t easy for me to maneuver in — and I’m not that big — but was a little blip in a great weekend getaway.

Great sea-side spot!

Clean and cute space! Check in process was a breeze and very easy. The cottage was very clean and as described by the listing. The property manager was very easy to contact and very responsive. Literally across the street from the beach, which was the main draw for me. Great location and easy access. Neighborhood is pretty quiet and clean. Hope to be back!

York Beach for a few hot days

We were thrilled to discover this place was exactly as described and it was a great vacation break. Very clean, updated and all comforts available. The beach across the street was a cool treat to swim during heat of the day and share a cup of coffee while sitting on sea wall in the mornings.

We loved our stay at this beautiful beach cottage. The home was very clean and Steve has done a fantastic job ensuring the house is fully stocked with everything you might need. It is perfectly located, just steps from Long Sands Beach! Steve went above and beyond as a host and was extremely responsive to any questions I had. My only recommendation would be to consider a small washer/dryer for the unit. We would absolutely rent this home again and would highly recommend it to others!

The perfect place to enjoy Long Sands

We've spent our holidays in York several times, and this place was just perfect. Close to the beach, clean, welcoming, and fully equipped (a rarity). Steve is a host who really took care of us and was available when needed. We stayed for two weeks and would have stayed two more weeks if it had been possible! Eric et Genevieve

Amazing! Steve wasn’t lying when he said everything we would need is here. 8 Beach towels. 4 beach chairs. Smart tv. Fast WiFi! Literally about a hundred yards from the beach. Full kitchen with baking sheets, pots, salt pepper, silverware, bowls, cups, plates, mugs. AMAZING stay! Sleeps 2 adults and kids perfectly. Don’t hesitate! Our neighbors were perfect. No issues with trash disposal or noise or crazy traffic or anything.
