About the host
Hosted by Bill & Beth Keyworth
Beth's ancestor's have been coming to York beach since the 1890's, originally building the Vermont House on Broadway in Cape Neddick and later owning property near Barn Point north of Short Sands. Growing up in the Boston area, her family made frequent summer visits to Long Sands and the Golden Rod while visiting family at Kittery Point.
Bill grew up near the Pacific Ocean and was introduced by Beth to York before they were married. He had an instant fondness for the coast of Maine and they've been bringing their family every year to Moody Beach, Ogunquit, York Beach and Gerrish Island.
Why they chose this property
With the kids grown, married and living far away, Bill & Beth got the cottage for summer gatherings, hoping to occasionally lure the grandchildren back to the roots of their heritage. In searching for the "right" place, they were taken with the obvious love and craftsmanship of the home's renovations over the years ...and its closeness to Long Sands beach .
What makes this property unique
The craft and quality of the cottage's construction is unique and restful. The abundant sunlight, cathedral ceiling, larger bedrooms, bead board paneled walls, and closeness to the beach are immediate draws. The feeling of seclusion on a knoll shared by two other cottages is quite calming ...and these neighbors are great! The recent renovations have brought a tasteful update to the cottage and Bill & Beth are delighted to share their affection for York Beach with their summer guests.
