Fun stay near York Beach
The house was quiet and peaceful on a quiet road within walking distance to York Beach. The beds were comfortable. Check in was easy. On July 4th all up and down York Beach people were lighting off fireworks. It was beautiful. The house is close to Portsmouth, N.H. so we spent a couple of days visiting that beautiful city. It was a lovely way to spend our vacation.

Great Beach House!
Very classic feeling beach house. We loved the deck that wraps the second floor for morning coffees and night time cocktails. It was very quiet and peaceful which was very important to us. The 2 bathrooms is a huge plus and the kitchen had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for my family and i would certainly recommend this house to anyone looking for a great vacation in the York Beach area.

Nice location
The location was great. The whole house wasn't easily accessible. The spiral staircase to the second floor was not very convenient and we ended up using only the first floor. Two twin beds, sleeping separately.

Charming beach cottage
Private, quiet cozy beach cottage that oozes with charm. Short walk to least crowded end of the beach. We fell in love with the area and would not hesitate to stay here again! Only negative is that we had no cell service (Verizon & AT&T) at the house or York Beach ...which maybe normal for the area. We just drove to the main road near grocer Hannaford for service. House does have WIFI.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole & Dan

Host profile image
This is our family's beach cottage-- we have been coming to York Beach for years and absolutely love it here (plan to retire here and do the snow bird thing someday!). York is such a fun place and we are very active people with kids that like to surf, bike, skateboard, and hike with us! We also very much enjoy doing the races in York in the summer-- specifically the 4 on the 4th Race and York Days race in August, so if you are a runner/jogger/walker, sign up for those if you choose to stay!

If you play the tides right Lobster Cove beach is very uncrowded and a beautiful place to chill. If you like a busier beach with more folks to see and lifeguards on duty, Long Sands is just down the road.

Enjoy it, we definitely do!

Nicole (& Dan & kids)

Why they chose this property

It is affordable weekly-- why stay at a hotel when you can have a whole house?! It is quaint and in a great location to walk, bike, or take the trolley into town.

What makes this property unique

The two floors with a bathroom and shower and flat screen tv on each floor lends itself nicely to providing the perfect privacy while maintaining togetherness-- kids or inlaws downstairs with the master bedroom upstairs with the deck.
