Great spot

Comfortable and cute. We loved the big porch in particular. It’s a bit of a walk to the beach but definitely manageable. We would definitely visit again.

Comfortable, quiet house in great location

Convenient walk to Short Sands. Kitchen well supplied with pots/pans and appliances we needed. Helpful to have a bedroom suite on main floor. Host very responsive to questions before our stay as well as during our long weekend there. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful last minute getaway. The weather threw a bit of a wrench in our plans and we couldn’t get there the first night. But Deirdre was very accommodating and gave us a late check out the last day. House was well appointed with an amazing view. Plenty of room to spread out and a great front porch with views of the ocean and the sounds of waves crashing.

Family retreat

Lovely property that feels very much like home right away. Met all our expectations and is our 2nd time staying there. We’re already booked for next year. Absolutely ideal place to invite family and friends to visit, or stay a night or two. Spent most of our time on the porch laughing and enjoying the view.

Great weekend away

Property was exactly as advertised and perfect for our group of five friends to get together. Plenty of seating in the living room. All kitchen basics were there. Beds were comfortable and having 2 1/2 baths was great.

Wonderful weekend getaway

This was a wonderful weekend away. We very much enjoyed waking up to ocean views and walking the dogs along the ocean. Our grandson invited a friend who had never been to the ocean. It was wonderful to see his excitement at all the firsts he was able to enjoy.

The host replied to all my messages quickly. The house has great location, can see the ocean from the porch. Went with family and one dog, had a great time! House is equipped with all you need - towels, beach chairs, utensils etc. Has three showers and plenty of beds for a bigger group. Definitely recommend!

Fabulous home

We had a great time in York. We were there for a local college graduation and the house was plenty big for our three families. We enjoyed a lobster dinner on the front porch, overlooking short sands beach! What can be better. Thanks for a fabulous stay!

A Wonderful Property A Wonderful Stay

This home is a wonderful place to stay, hang out on the porch and catch up on reading, or venture out to some fabulous restaurants. I love that this place has an ocean view AND allows our pups to join us. And the air conditioning was a great bonus surprise and very much appreciated in the 80-90 degree weather. The owners are very accommodating. Loved returning here and look forward to coming back next year.

Fabulous New Year's Vacation

Our group loved this home. It was so great to be able to bring our dogs, walk to the beach and the lighthouse. When there was an issue with the heat - which can happen anywhere/anytime - the response was super quick and everything was fixed ASAP. We would gladly come back here and really appreciate being able to enjoy each other in this beautiful spot.

Excellent!

Fantastic location, tons of room, very comfortable, and host Deidre was incredibly responsive. The yard was great for us (and the dogs!), the porches are awesome, numerous amenities, new cards and games, plenty of quality glasses, cups, mugs, plates, utensils, and some very nice Caphalon pots and pans in the mix. Giant dog crate was very useful as well. Can’t wait to stay here again!
