Spirit Sail Quarters – A Classic Coastal Retreat in the Heart of the Nubble

Welcome to Spirit Sail Quarters, a beloved New England beach house tucked in York’s iconic Nubble neighborhood. Whether you’re seeking a sunny summer getaway, a peaceful off-season escape, or a salty seaside adventure, this home is the perfect base for your Maine vacation. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, connection, and coastal living, it offers cozy indoor spaces, breezy outdoor lounging, and walkable access to York’s most treasured spots.

🏡 Comfortable Living Across Two Levels
On the lower level, you’ll find two inviting bedrooms:
A bright bunk room with two twin-over-twin bunks (sleeps 4) — perfect for kids or guests
A cozy full bedroom
This floor also includes a half bath and a stackable washer/dryer, making beach days a breeze.

Upstairs, the main living area offers a classic open-concept layout with plenty of room to gather. Relax on the comfy sectional, stream your favorite shows, enjoy casual meals in the dining area, or cook up local seafood in the fully equipped galley kitchen. This level also hosts a queen bedroom and a full bathroom, ensuring everyone has space to unwind.

🌿 Enjoy the Outdoors – Maine Style
Step outside to the spacious second-floor deck, perfect for al fresco dinners, grilling summer favorites, and soaking in the ocean breeze.
Head up to the top deck, where distant ocean views, salty air, and the peaceful hum of the neighborhood create a truly tranquil setting. This upper deck is intended for adult use only, making it the ideal spot for morning coffee or stargazing at night.

Down below, the backyard features a private fire pit for roasting s’mores under the stars, plus a secluded outdoor shower to rinse off sandy toes after the beach.

🚶 Walk to Beaches, Lighthouse & Local Favorites
The location is unbeatable — leave the car behind and stroll to some of York’s most iconic spots:
The Nubble Lighthouse, one of the most photographed in the U.S.
Dunne’s Ice Cream, a must-visit summer classic
A Little Auk, a cozy café for craft drinks or coffee
Both Short Sands & Long Sands Beaches for boardwalk fun, shops, arcades, or laid-back beach days
York Beach Village with boutiques, taffy shops, and live music on summer nights

🛏 Make Yourself at Home
Spirit Sail Quarters is more than just a beach house — it’s a place to unwind, reconnect, and savor the simple pleasures of southern Maine. With sleeping arrangements for up to 8 guests, it’s ideal for families, friends, or small groups looking for a classic coastal experience with all the comforts of home.

From peaceful mornings on the deck to sunset strolls along the water, your stay here promises York charm, ocean breezes, and unforgettable memories.
