Loved the area and the outdoor space, house was very charming. Was surprised to see some added gifts for us given by the host. Surrounding area of York was convenient and home was close to other hot spots in Maine as well as New Hampshire. Host communicated well with me. Would highly recommend this wonderful home.

We had a wonderful week at the beach staying in Nate's home! This is a great family home, and it's very clean and charming, with a well appointed kitchen. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella, and games very much. The location was very convenient - close to the beach and to grocery shopping and restaurants/cafes. The back patio is a show stopper! It was perfect for lounging around and reading and also some evening smores in the fire pit. The outdoor shower was really handy for beach days, too! The host is very friendly, and communication was quick and easy. We had a great stay!

The property was very clean. The listing said it sleeps 5 we didn't know we could not have more then 5 eventhough some nights there was only 2 of us and 2 nights we were not at the property at all because we were at our sons wedding. The reason given was the property has a septic so there is only a max of 5 people. We had to make other accommodations for 2 relatives for one night. Had we know ahead of time we could have made other arrangements. Other than that our stay was great!

Everything about this property was perfect fo our family Christmas get-together. Near the highway and the beach. Such a cute cozy cottage with a well-appointed kitchen. Everything was easy to find and use. When we had questions, the owner answered right away. They even brought us a slow cooker and put up a Christmas tree! A snack bucket was a wonderful treat too. As an EV owner, the charger was an added bonus. We plan on returning.

The house was exactly as described. It was absolutely clean and well equipped. The host even provided a few treats such as chips to welcome us. The house was in a very convenient location which was a short drive or walk to the village center. A grocery store was less than a mile away on US1.There was ample room for several cars although we only had one. A nice feature was the deck off the living room featuring a BBQ and a fire pit. There were plenty of plates, glasses and utensils in the kitchen which was quite large. Overall we were glad we picked this house for our stay in York.
