About this property

Large Beach House perfect for family vacations by the sea!

Quiet and peaceful York Beach get away. Imagine yourself in a freshly renovated home close to beaches, restaurants and entertainment. This large 2-story, 4 bedroom and 2 bathroom ( plus fabulous grand outdoor shower) home located on the point of the "Nubble" peninsula, a highly desirable neighborhood in York and steps to Nubble Lighthouse and Dunne's Ice Cream.

Listen to the surf, and check out the ocean views as you relax on the first floor deck. Here you will feel the cool ocean breezes while having a cocktail after a day at the beach or greet the sun with a cup of coffee in the early morning. The house has a large yard on a very quiet private street. Enjoy a lovely stone fireplace for cool evenings.

Located at 15 Spring Street and named Sea Light View, the home has four bedrooms. There are two spacious living/entertaining areas on first and second floors giving larger groups room to spread out. There are 2 full bathrooms, brand new washer/dryer, dishwasher, a new 60” flat screen smart Streaming TV, and High-speed WiFi internet access that is reliable. The home is beautifully remodeled and freshly decorated. The "Shark" room has two bunks and sleeps four. The "Mermaid" room sleeps two in a Queen size bed and the "Nautical" room sleeps three with a Full bed and twin. The primary sleeps two with a king size bed. All beds and bedding are new. Two lower deck has ample room for eating and drinking your post-beach fare!

Short walk to Short or Long Sands beaches and restaurants, bars, arcade, York Wild Animal Park, and outlet shopping and more close by.

Enjoy cooking with new stove and new Weber gas grill. The kitchen has everything needed to make a great meal and enjoy inside or al fresco on deck or yard dining areas! Don't cook or want to? then enjoy one of the many amazing local restaurants available in York or surrounding towns.

Rental comes with bed linens and beach gear (chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, toys). The home is also equipped for families with young children with port-a-crib, high chair, toddler bed railing, and more. Don't worry about hauling all that gear! If we don't have something you need, we'll do our best to find it and have it there waiting for you.

While not technically handicap accessible, there is a two-step access to home and the lovingroom, kitchen and dining plus 2 bedrooms with full bath with walk-in shower on first floor for those vacationing with a guest who may not be able to manage many stairs or have limited mobility.

We'd like to think that we've thought of everything whether your a multigenerational/multi family, girls’ weekend getaway, or couples retreat. We want our guests to start enjoying their vacation from the moment they pull onto Spring St. We hope to host you on your next vacation and are happy to answer any questions.

Thanks for considering Sea Light View!
Roseann & David

My college friends and I had a fabulous time at The Beach House in York, Maine. The house met all our needs: number of beds, bedrooms, and bathrooms. There were also plenty of eating areas both inside and outside on the patios.Our property manager, Roseann was absolutely wonderful during the whole process of booking the house, and was very informative about things to do, places to go and restaurants to try in York, and surrounding Ogunquit and Wells.She really cared about our experience and was always available to answer our questions! She also encouraged us to try our hand in having a Lobster fest in the house. By providing all the necessary supplies, we had a fun time cracking claws and laughing about it, etc.I would definitely recommend this property to fellow travelers!!

Charming Coastal Retreat

We traveled to Maine for our niece's wedding at the View Point Hotel and the home was incredibly convenient (short walk). Walked in to find a ready-to-light fireplace and fresh hydrangeas on the table! The kitchen and entire cottage were extremely well-equipped with little extras you might need (like a flashlight). The furnishings were extremely comfortable especially the porch and gathering/seating area upstairs. Cannot say enough about communication with the host - Roseann answered questions almost immediately and checked in periodically to make sure we were comfortable with no issues. If you're looking for a comfortable family home on The Nub to kick back and enjoy, this should be your Maine destination!!

Perfect house, pefect location and great hosts

What a perfect family place to stay for the 4th of July weekend. No worries about being stuck in heavy traffic as we easily walked to the Lighthouse, to Foxes Lobster House, the ice cream parlor, the beach, and into town with great views of the ocean along the way. House was clean and spacious and stocked with everything, and both are decks awesome. We ate dinner on the lower deck and took in the sea breeze on the upper deck at night. My son was impressed with the Weber Genesis grill and my grandson loved the rocking "moose" and toys. Roseann, our host, was equally awesome, understanding our special needs with a small child and had everything set up well for our arrival. I'd give our experience a 6 out of 5 if I could.

Perfect family beach house

The property was as listed, spacious, bedrooms were set up to meet our family’s needs which included an infant ( pack n play, high chair, infant bathtub), but there were many extras making it extremely comfortable. The outdoor shower is the nicest one I’ve stepped foot in and the Hans grohe shower apparatus helped to introduce our 3 year old to showers. The yard and porches have lots of seating. We enjoyed grilling and Al fresco dining. Location is fabulous, easy walk to the beach, the lighthouse and the center of town. Roseann is a most gracious host. She sent info about the area prior to our arrival, and remains accessible if needs arise. We are contemplating making this an annual family event.

Re-Connecting with Family in 2020

Perfect Columbus Day weekend getaway - something the family needed in these unprecedented times. The house was the perfect rendezvous spot and delivered on everything needed for my young nephews (ages 5 & 6) to my mother with a few mobility issues. The house was close to so much (shopping, dining, attractions, etc.) and a nice area for walking the neighborhood. The owners were very attentive even asking if we had any requests and while I never met Roseann I felt like I knew her. When you do something strictly by an internet search it is always helpful when the owners communicate to put you at ease and they did that in spades. Would gladly return to the area of York and this house in the future,,,,,

Nestled into breathtaking nature...

This property is IDEAL for anyone seeking a quiet beach trip without the tourists!!! The home is immaculate and inviting. It's large enough that we could share it with good friends without being crowded or out of our price range. The two living areas allowed the kids to play playing games and watch movies on one floor, while adults enjoyed a quieter evening of nightcaps and conversation beside a cozy fire! The ocean breeze is accessible from every room of the home, and the decks (upstairs and down) prove perfect for grilling, sunrises and sunsets, & ocean views. With room enough to store our surfboards, bikes and cars we were able to enjoy all that the charming town and pristine beaches had to offer. There was ample room for our group of 8...the location, home and owners made this THE PERFECT beach trip. This is truly a wonderful get-a-way...and we can't wait to return!

Fabulous house!

The house was perfect for our week long stay! House was neat, clean and nicely decorated with comfortable furniture that you could just put your feet up and feel at home. Kitchen was fully stocked with anything you might need for cooking any meal. We used the grill as well and there are two outside areas for dining - each with lovely views. The upstairs with the large flat screen TV was perfect for a laid back evening - again, you could just kick up your feet. Although we didn't use them, there were bikes, boogie boards, etc for the kids. The house is walkable from Dunne's Ice Cream - a must do! There are a couple of beaches around and we drove to the beach a couple of days but it's certainly walkable. Lots of great restaurants around even for those who may not be fond of seafood. The lighthouse is also in walking distance and beautiful at night. The house is in a quiet neighborhood so you don't have to listen to a bunch of noise yet your still close to the activity. We wanted some peace and quiet so this was perfect for us - sitting on the deck reading or swinging on the porch screen. I would highly recommend this rental and look forward to coming back again!

Great family weekend

The location of the home is perfect. Close to everything but still very peaceful. We had eight adults and there was plenty of room. Everything you need to cook a great meal. We really enjoyed the backyard for cornhole and fire pit. Plenty of room to have a family game night indoors also. We hope to return in the summer months, although it was absolutely beautiful in the fall. Very clean and comfortable. Hosts were very responsive to any questions.

Nubble family fun!

Our family had the most amazing week here on the Nubble! The house worked well for the 10 of us. The kids loved the bunk room and their parents and we grandparents all had our own rooms. The beds were VERY comfortable and most rooms had two fans. The kitchen although small was well equipped and provided us with all the essentials. There is a huge living room upstairs with a large TV. The adults escaped upstairs for games etc. while the kids slept downstairs in the bunk room. The outside decks provided comfortable and ample seating. There was a great Weber grill (very clean) that was easily accessible on the deck. We loved watching the stars and enjoyed a full moon. The outside shower was a blessing and was the preferred way to clean away the beach sand. Short walks to the Nubble and Dunne’s ice cream were almost daily occurrences. The beach is not really within walking distance so we needed to take cars to the beach by 9:30 to get parking. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation here and hope to return in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Roseann and David Sauer

Host profile image
We are part of 3 generations of a York Beach visiting/vacation family who recently purchased this lovely year 'round 2 story house on the Nubble, the most desirable neighborhood in York. One of the wonderful benefits of owning and renting our home has been taking advantage off all that York has to offer in every season and getting to know our guests who have come from near and far.

Why they chose this property

Our guests tell us that renting from us feels like they are visiting a relative and not a drab "rental". That is why we have many returning renters. We've done our best to think of and provide everything to make your vacation comfortable and relaxing from the moment you arrive. Vacation time and family time is precious, choosing the right rental can be stressful, so picking the right place that fits your family or group is important. We think we provide that special rental. Not only have we created a clean, relaxing home but we also are available to each guest to help them with vacation plans. We are highly responsive to our guest. We want you to enjoy our home as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

We love our home because we relax the moment we pull onto the "Nubble". The Nubble is a desirable neighborhood in York, located on the the peninsula where the world famous Nubble Lighthouse is situated -- just steps from our home. We designed the home to be clean, bright and uncluttered. We've created several areas to gather to relax and enjoy family and friends as our family has been doing for over 50 years. The beach is part of our daily agenda, with swimming, boogie boarding and surfing. Followed by a luxurious post-beach shower in a brand new 5'x6' outdoor Walpole Woodworker shower complete with Grohe rain head shower head. We love to sit on the upper deck star gaze at night and listen to the surf and feel the wonderful ocean breezes after a super dinner. The kids and adults enjoy nightly homemade ice cream from Dunne's which is a 2 minute walk. And taking a stroll to sit and look at the Nubble Lighthouse never gets old. For those who like to rise early, a cup of coffee or yoga on the upper deck and welcome the sun is so peaceful.

This home is walkable to beaches or use one of the bikes provided. You may find homes closer to the beach, but they will be closer to noise and crowds. If you're looking for fun and relaxation...you will find it here!
