Summer Vacation
The home's location is fantastic, very close to Short Sands beach and a quick drive to primary roads (Rt1, 95). The owner was very patient with all my questions and was easy to communicate with. The AC in the bedrooms was nice and the house was comfortable. Some minor negatives; The home was mostly clean, but there were a few areas that weren't. The bedroom with the queen bed is not much bigger than the bed itself. You will need to bring your own sheets, towels, hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. Cable TV is quite limited. Still, an overall positive experience.

Lovely York Beach family stay
We had a great week at the cottage! You can’t beat the location to Short Sands and all the beach shops and restaurants. The house itself has a great flow: an updated, open floor plan on the first floor + a bath with a tub/shower combo; upstairs are 3 good sized bedrooms and a half bath. The kitchen is well appointed with all necessary cookware, dishes and appliances. It was very baby friendly for our crawling kiddo as well and came with two baby gates! Would certainly stay again!
