Fall getaway in a perfect house

We are 10 female cousins who have been spending a fall weekend away in different locations for 30 years. This house was perfect. We were all able to sit comfortably at the dining table, which was a plus. Pam was very accommodating , and responded right away to any questions I had prior to our trip. I would highly recommend this house.

Amazing Hosts

Mike and Pam were incredibly responsive with the many outreaches we did for our weekend away! This was our third year renting this beautiful home and we already know we want to go back! The location is perfect to York, Ogunquit and Kennebunkport. The home is spacious, they supply everything you need for a weekend/week away and the bedroom are huge!

Perfect!

This house was well appointed. It had everything we needed and more. We were an extended family of 8 and there was more than enough space, with excellent amenities. The location was perfect for a family wedding at The Union Bluff. We were able to walk within 7 minutes. The hosts were exceptional. They were very quick to respond to our questions prior to our stay. We would highly recommend this home to a large family, looking to stay in York.

Wedding Weekend

We booked the house for our wedding party for the weekend of our wedding. The house was large enough to accommodate everyone and still felt extremely spacious. The house had everything you need for a vacation. The rooms were so big, the beds were comfy, and everything was so clean. The location was so close to the beach that we were able to walk home from our wedding venue. I communicated with Mike mostly and he was very nice. He allowed us to check in early and leave late, which was great due to travel schedules of everyone staying with us. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a place in York

5th year staying here!

The house is perfect--clean, beautiful and walking distance to so much! Mike and Pam are also extremely nice, responsive, and very accommodating. Not to mention, they have thought of everything you might need to have a nice vacation (bikes, games, towels, beach gear, etc)...which makes packing much easier. There is a reason we stay here every year!!

The Wedding of the Year !

Hi. My family and I stayed here for 2 weeks during August 2024. We travelled over from Ireland to celebrate the Wedding of our son . We needed a house that would accommodate our whole family and the groom and his new wife after the Wedding. This house was exactly what we needed and Mike and was very helpful and provided us with anything we needed, including a new electric kettle , something not found in many US homes. I would recommend this house if you are looking for the perfect location, plenty of space and its also very close to the center of the town. It has everything you could possibly need. Its got it all and we will be back .. thanks Mike.

Great location!

We love this rental! This was our second year staying here. There is plenty of space for our family of adult children and significant others. The bedrooms are large, the beds comfortable and no wobbly bunk beds. It is always very clean and well-cared for. The location is perfect with just a quarter mile walk to Short Sands. The table tennis in the garage was a big hit!

Family Vacation

We spent a lovely week at Pam & Mike's house which is very well located, within walking distance of Short Sands Beach, shops and parks for young and old and also a few miles from the grocery store and places to visit. This place was perfect for our family (grandparents, children and grandchildren); we were 16 people (from 4 years old to 72 years old). The bedrooms are spacious and the living room is pleasant to spend time with the whole family. The 3 bathrooms are well appointed, there are plenty of towels for the house and the beach. The backyard is big and we played badminton and Mölkky. The ping-pong table was used a lot. We would recommend this place without hesitation to anyone looking for great accommodation in a quiet, clean location and very friendly owners. Mike informed us that there would be fireworks on Sunday evening at Short Sands; These fireworks were wonderful. Thanks for everything Mike & Pam

Family Vacation

Overall, it was a convenient and lovely place to stay. The bedrooms are spacious, and the living area was nice to spend time with the whole family. It was nice having 3 bathrooms with so many people, as well as plenty of towels for the house and the beach. If you have feather allergies (like a few people in our party), the couches/chairs or the pillows were feather stuffed. Though the property is shared with a second rental (two separate homes connected by the garages), it was quiet and spacious. I do wish there were two fire pits instead of one. The family that stayed next to us was super friendly, but it felt a bit weird like we were intruding when using the shared fire pit. The yard is huge, and we set up spike ball and played volleyball. There is a ping pong table that got a lot of use. There were also several bikes, beach toys/shovels, some beach chairs and a stroller in case you'd rather leave yours at home. It was great only being a short 10 min walk to the beach and shops (paid parking can add up). If you have a lot to bring to the beach, you can pull in the parking lot (with no cost) to drop everyone/everything off, drive home and then walk to the beach.

Very convenient to the beach

The stairs are very noisy. The master suite hears everything going on in the house. We all enjoyed our stay. Located near short sands, long sands beach and not far from perkins cove and Ogunquit 👍 the children enjoyed the ping pong table! All in all we loved the place ❤️

Perfect place for all generations!

This is our 3rd stay at Mike and Pam’s property in York Beach - and we’re already looking forward to next year! This place continues to be perfect for our 3 generations of family. Our older generation has limited mobility, so the first floor king bedroom with en suite is a must. The 2.5 bathrooms are also a must as are roomy, oversized bedrooms for multiple generation to use. The decor is cheerful and location can’t be beat! A quick walk to Short Sands beach and the quintessential beach downtown is wonderful with younger kids and for teens and adults. Would recommend this place without hesitation for anyone looking for a large place in a prime location which is clean, well-stocked, and great property management!

Perfect for our family trip

This was a perfect spot to stay for our family trip with kids and grandkids - 11 of us in all. The location of the house allowed both trips north up the coast of Maine, and trips south to Boston, Concord, and Salem. Everything necessary for family entertainment (ping-pong table, tv, firepit) was close at hand. There were even bicycles and helmets in the garage! The kitchen was fully equipped and there were plenty of towels for the bathrooms and trips to the beach. Thank you Pamela and Mike!

Another fantastic and memorable stay

Another fantastic & memorable stay was experienced by all who joined our annual family Christmas celebration at 52A-B Main Street. The indoor living quarters – spacious spotless and fully stocked – are complemented by the homes’ central location and lovely outdoor living spaces – allowing individuals or groups to easily walk to the Short Sands Beach/ playground or gather around the cozy backyard fire pit. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our stay in York. Thanks again Pam and Mike!
