About this property

Salty Poynt: A BRAND NEW, Beautiful & Airy Beach Cottage

We designed this beach cottage with YOU in mind! It's located 0.3 mi from Long Sands Beach, a 5 minute walk. It's the perfect size - it's cozy, yet large enough for a family or two to comfortably enjoy a getaway. It features an all white kitchen and a spacious living room with a beautiful gas fireplace for those colder New England months and AC for the hotter months. There are 3 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms and a washer and dryer, as well. The property includes a covered front porch w/ teak table and chairs. There is a grill & a beautiful and convenient outdoor shower. Did we mention this cottage is BRAND NEW?

Please note:
-We offer Friday to Friday rentals in the summer.
-We do not offer any discounted rates for longer rentals.
-The top bunk beds are designed for children due to weight limit capacity/safety.
-At most we are able to accommodate 8 people total with a maximum of 6 adults.

Perfect location and size for us. Cooked out a lot - and the kids played a lot of cards on the front porch. We spent most days at the beach - we were lucky with great weather! We'll definitely book again!

Beautiful, immaculate cottage that is a five-minute walk from the beach in charming York Beach

There is pride in ownership by the owners of this property, which has all the comfort and conveniences to make our stay memorable. The owners were extremely accommodating. Will definitely try to stay here again if I am in the area.

The perfect cottage

The cottage is in a lovely quiet neighborhood with easy access to both beach and highway. We planned to do a lot of driving and sightseeing so being directly on the beach or having ocean views wasn’t necessary. This was the perfect accommodations for our family.

Peaceful and beautiful stay

We traveled for a wedding with our 2 kids under 2. I was looking for a convenient, quiet, but accessible location and this home delivered all and more! They had 2 pack n plays so we didn't have to travel with them (amazing!). The location is beautiful, SO close to parks and the water and very quiet (which is great for sleep and naps). There were SO many toys and games for both the kids and adults. It was very clean and so cute! If we are ever back in the area - we will definitely stay again :)

Repeat customer!

We have been coming here every year since the house was built- and we love it! The house is clean, fully stocked, and an easy walk to the beach. The owners are extremely nice and easy to communicate with. Every year they add more - this year AC and linens were added which made our trip even better! Thank you for a perfect week at the beach! We will be back!!

Annual York Vacation

This is the first time we’ve stayed at this property but we go to York with our family every year. This is the best house we’ve stayed at - both amenities and location. Less than 10 minute walk to both Long Sands Beach and Downtown York, easy to walk even with younger kids. The house is clean and cozy, with plenty of air conditioning to stay comfortably cool in the summer. Everything you need is provided. Highly recommend this property and the owners. We would rent this house again!

Perfect Spot for Our Summer Getaway

Our family’s stay at Salty Poynt was wonderful. The house had everything we needed, inside and out, including an updated kitchen and a lovely yard for the kids to play in. While not far from the main road, the street the house was on had no traffic at all, which was perfect for the kids playing outdoors. The house is an easy 10 minute walk to Long Sands Beach. We’d definitely stay here again if back in York Beach.

Family Reunion

My weekend family reunion with my brother and wife at Salty Poynt was delightful. The place was immaculate and well situated. It was tastefully decorated and had everything we needed. The location was great and close to town, the beach and everything we needed. Liz was very accessible and helpful. There were lots of nice features such as a fireplace which was great with the cooler weather we had this weekend. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent! Very enjoyable, comfortable, cozy, and attractive. Did mention to owners that door latch in one bedroom did not catch so it never closes completely. And there were markings on wall in living room where corner chair is located .everything else was perfect. Thank you!

It was perfect for a weekend get away . Love walking to the beach .

We just loved staying here . Very close to beach. Everything we needed was available in this house . Decorated so pretty. Great layout for hanging with family , playing games and cooking . Everyone loved the outdoor shower. The only negative for us was having to bring our own sheets and towels but owners gave us amble notice on that so we were aware. Over all 5 stars and would highly recommend.

Beautiful Property, Outstanding Location

Our family stayed at Salty Poynt from Friday July 29th through Friday August 2nd. It's a lovely, very clean, very comfortable house within walking distance from Long Sands Beach -- which is awesome. Plenty of room in the house for our family of eight. Everything worked, no problems at all the entire time. It's a very up-to-date, modern house. A/C was a huge plus as the evenings were seasonally muggy. Liz was a very friendly, gracious host; she connected with us on arrival and departure. I'd stay again in a minute! Thanks so much!

1st Timers

Never used VRBO before. Didn't like having to either bring or rent all bedding and towels. Additional cost and longer to beach than stated. Considering cost additional housekeeping duties also such as trash , dishes, washing bath rugs.

Salty Poynt

The property was clean and the hosts were very accommodating and responsive. The walk to the beach may be a little far with children, but was not daunting for us adults. The lack of air conditioning made enjoying being in the house difficult as there were also no enough fans provided for all rooms and the house is too far from the beach for any ocean breeze. Also felt as though the rental linen price should have been included in the original pricing, as most rentals have towels and linens included in your stay.

The house was lovely, and conveniently located near the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much! The only complaint I have is the fact that we had to rent linens for this rental which not only cost us an additional $225, but after a long day of travel, it was a lot of work to have to make all the beds putting on pillow cases and sheets before we could go to sleep. I understand this was put in practice due to COVID…. But that time has past. I recommend the owners go back to providing the linens and have the housekeeper make the beds. Other than that this vacation rental was awesome!

Amazing!!!!

I'm about to write an amazing review... with the fear that it will make it harder to rent again once others find this gem! Our hosts were amazing, easy to communicate with and had clearly put a lot of thought into the house and it's amenities. The house was immaculate! Everything was clean and beautiful. The dishes, pots, pans, etc. made nights that we ate in easy. The outdoor shower made it easy to not track sand inside. The beds were extremely comfortable! The beach was an easy five minute walk. I do recommend you bring a beach cart and or wagon with you for your stay to transport your beach gear, it made the walk much easier. I cannot think of a single complaint I have as the stay was perfect! The only thing that made me nervous was the white couch, so I covered it in extra sheets and then I didn't have to worry about my teens not paying attention to the fact that it was white. Thank you for an amazing stay, we have already booked again for next summer! Our family had an amazing week there and we thank you!!!
