Perfect vacation!

House was awesome! Kitchen so well stocked we didn’t want for anything. Location was great, with only 10 minute walk to beach. Three generations had a wonderful time and hope to return next year!

Space, location, fully stocked

This house provided us all that we needed. We traveled with our older children and a bunch of their friends. The house allowed us all to spread out, and the location was tucked at the end of a dead end. We were able to walk to the beach in just 10 minutes, but it was great being away from all of the holiday traffic.

York stay

We had a very nice stay. People were able to play in the front yard. Could set up corn hole in the back as well as have a nice area to sit to have a fire. The one negative was the amount of dog feces on the ground that we had to pick up before we could enjoy the outside area.

Great Stay in York Maine

We had a great week in York Maine and the house was perfect to accommodate a family trip with 10 adults and an infant. The property was centrally located in York and was less than a 10 minute walk to Long Sands beach and less than a 5 minute drive to Short Sands. The house was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The hosts were very accommodating and the check-in process was simple. My family vacations to York almost every summer and we are looking forward to staying here again in the future.

Great house for a family vacation

Had a great stay here for our family vacation. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone and a large dining table plus counter stools so we can all eat together, play games and cards, etc. Also nice seating on the back porch. Kitchen was well appointed with everything you could need, and the house was clean and well cared for, plus great central air. A nice outdoor shower and lots of beach chairs and equipment provided. And it was a short and easy walk to our favorite beach spot. Good communication with the host as well. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to make family memories

We had such a great week making memories in York. The house had everything that we needed to have a great week. On top of that it was only a short walk to the beach. The welcome bag was a great way to start our trip and my kids loved the Surfer Dude.

Wonderful stay in York!

We had a great stay! Justin and Nicole were very helpful and responsive. The house was a short walk to beautiful long sand beach which was perfect for our two little ones (calm waters and wide open beach)! The house was new, very clean, plenty of beds and had all the essentials. Thank you Justin and Nicole for a wonderful week and great memories!

About the host

Hosted by Nicole and Justin

Host profile image
We are Nicole and Justin and we have 4 school aged boys and two dogs. Nicole has been vacationing in Maine since she was a childhood and has always felt like it was "home". In 2019 we decided to stop living for those vacations and move to "Vacationland" permanently. We love exploring the outdoors and spending time at the beach all year long. We spend our summers with our kids on a lake in New Hampshire and open our home for renters to enjoy all that York and the surrounding area offer.

Why they chose this property

Being a new home means everything is up to date including the furnishings. Here you will find all the comforts of home within walking to distance to the beach. It is ideally located on a quiet road just 5 minutes to Long Sands beach. In the opposite direction you can stroll down to Short Sands for a variety of shops and restaurants, or hop on the Trolley from Long Sands. The basement was recently updated to offer extra living space and, with an additional kitchen would also be great for multi-generational family getaways. The home is professionally cleaned year round so you can be sure things are well kept.

What makes this property unique

Because we live in this property in the off season it offers all the amenities you would expect in your home. We allow Dogs under 30 lbs, and can be flexible based on conversations with renters.
