Beautiful and cozy cottage

Perfect 2 bedroom cottage VERY close to beach. Took us 5 minutes to walk from door to beach. Home was neat and clean, nice furniture with everything you need for your vacation. Beach buggy. Fire pit. All pots and pans and utensils are fully stocked. Remember to bring your own towels and linens! Not our first time staying at the York Hut and definitely not our last! The host, Kimberly, was extremely helpful and responsive! Five Plus stars!!!

We simply love this place

It is clean, has all the dishes and other kitchen items that allows us to eat and prepare meals on-site instead of paying the high price of eating a restaurants all the time. The outdoor shower is perfect after a warm day at the beach. The walk to Long Sands beach is easy and we love the beach cart for carrying beach umbrellas, towels etc. It is also an established neighborhood with many summer cottages and a few full-time residents, so at night it is QUIET. See ya next year.

Great Stay

Quaint little place. Very clean. Loved the fire pit in the back, very nice on chilly nights. Not a bad walk to Long Sands but we ended up driving. There is a beach cart for your use located at the back of the house but no beach chairs. What I did love is that there is a small washer and dryer located in the bathroom. It came in so very handy. All in all, we had a lovely stay and would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly DiCesare

We bought this cottage years ago and brought it back to life after many years of neglect. It is truly our happy place. Our goal was to create a vacation spot with all the conveniences we looked for when we rented beach cottages with 2 young kids. We wanted something better than just a hotel room. We wanted a place where both the adults and the kids could kick back equally to have fun. Once we created it, we named it The York Hut. We wouldn't trade our place for mansion and we hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

The York Hut and York Maine is quintessential New England. The location of the cottage is perfect. It is close enough to everything but set back just enough from the beach to be peaceful and private.

What makes this property unique

York Beach is a laid back vacation spot fun for all ages. It offers a very casual and family friendly environment free from chain retailers and restaurants. York prides itself in all things local creating a true vacation experience unlike no other. If hanging in isn't your thing, there are many local dining spots within walking distance of the York Hut along with convenient stores, ice cream shops and surf board rentals. Many favorite spots are within walking distance. There is also a trolley available to get around between Long Sand Beach and Short Sands Beach with stops in between along a coastal route.
