About this property

Bold ocean and light house views at charming Star of the Sea cottage

Star Of The Sea Cottage is located directly across from Dunne's Ice Cream and a quick walk to the most photographed lighthouse in New England, The Nubble Lighthouse! Comfortably sleeping 6, this 3 bedroom, 1 bath cottage (+ outdoor shower) is the perfect getaway to Maine. Enjoy the amazing views, convenient location and the comfort of feeling like you are home. The owners of this home have taken exceptional care to provide every amenity you will need and an ultra CLEAN environment. You will love walking in and just escaping into the views of the deep blue ocean and the amazing lighthouse. You will even catch glimpses of our local wildlife as the deer, ducks and sometimes fox come strolling across the lawn! We are so lucky in York. We have 4 beautiful public beaches to choose from, and if that is not enough, take a quick ride to Ogunquit and enjoy that public beach, great shopping and dining as well. Or make a day of it and jump on board a whale watching boat or deep sea fishing vessel in Perkins Cove. If bargain shopping is what you are looking for, we have the great factory outlets in Kittery, just down the road. Come back after a day out and wile away the afternoon with a glass of wine and good book. Be careful...you won't want to leave! Downtown York Beach is about 5 minutes from this conveniently located home. There, you will find many more restaurants, bars, shopping, a great playground for the kids and York's Wild Kingdom. This is a zoo and small amusement park. Play mini-golf, ride the Carousel, see the animals and enjoy some cotton candy. Better yet, stroll to Fox's Restaurant for drinks and dinner but save room for ice cream from the famous Dunne's Ice Cream shop directly across the street! Read our reviews...You can tell this adorable cottage by the sea will be a truly memorable experience!

short fall stay
My husband and I stayed at this cottage for a short work/ pleasure vacation. It is a quaint cottage with convenient location. Having been to York many times (my husband formerly lived in the area), we couldn't have asked for a better location to unplug!

Heaven by the Seashore
What an immaculate property. So well kept. We loved how every detail was well done, from the decorations to the instructions, even to the welcome gift. Everything was so thoughtful. We truly enjoyed our stay and the view is to die for!!! Will consider a return.

Long weekend visit
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Star of the Sea Cottage. The view was spectacular of the Nubble Lighthouse and Dunne’s ice cream was just across the street. The cottage was so clean and perfect for our long weekend visit.

A wonderful stay
We had the best week at the Star of the Sea. You cannot get a better view of the ocean and Nubble Lighthouse! As ice cream lovers, having Dunne’s across the street was the icing on the cake. The house is super clean and has absolutely everything you need to enjoy your stay. We have rented many houses and none were as well equipped as this one. We are hoping to rent again next year.
