One of the nicest places we’ve stayed through VRBO. Melissa was awesome.

Our whole family was on this trip, three generations. The house was amazingly clean. There was plenty of space for everyone. Beds were all comfy. She even had supplies stocked that we did not expect. Everything from trash bags to spices. Just a short drive to the beach. Nice fenced in back yard and very quiet neighborhood.

Perfect home base while we got married in Maine!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was the perfect location for us to use as a home base while we got married in York, especially being able to have our dog with us. I think it actually looked even nicer in person than in the photos and is situated on a quiet dirt road that was great for walking our dog without traffic, and we loved having the fenced in yard off the deck to be able to play with our dog and feel like she was safe. Overall it was clean, the bedrooms were comfortable and we loved having a master bedroom with a private bathroom to ourselves, and there was more space than we needed with the second living room and deck to utilize. Even though we didn't get to the beach much it was a quick ride for when we did go and it was super convenient to route 1 and all of York. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay here again.

Cute little home close to Center of York

Home comfortably fit our entire group (4 adults and 2 kids) and was very clean and well kept. Host (Melissa) was very organized and communicated wonderfully. We loved every second staying at this beautiful home and would recommend this for any family vacationing near the York area.

Excellent place for family vacation in York

Stayed week of 8/6/22 - 8/13/22. with my 2 grown children, their spouses and my 2 grandchildren (6 adults 2 children +dogs). Place was great, has everything needed as listed in amenities, lots of space, outdoor deck, firepit in the grass side yard, functional kitchen served us well for large cookouts. Fenced in yard area was a really nice feature, as we had 2 dogs that could run around, along with 2yo grandson, and not worry about them. Owner is easy to work with and communicates well. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Home , Great location

This home was much more than we expected. It was much larger and meticulously clean. Everything you wanted was there. It is only about a half-mile from the beach and town, which surprised us. Our dog just loved the fenced-in backyard, and so did we. We found Anthony's Food on Rt 1 and loved getting quick food there--be sure you try it. Can't say enough good things -- Melissa you have a wonderful home. Thank you for letting us stay there.

York Beach house

This house was perfect for our family, plenty of space & location was great for traveling to and from the beach. The yard and patio was great for relaxing at night, and having AC in all the rooms was great! Beds were very comfy & I would come back again!

York Beach Rental, Maine

Our stay was for two weeks, my husband, myself, our 5 kids the first week and my in-laws came the second week. The house is more spacious than I'd expected. The bedrooms are a really good size. The kitchen is a bit small, a galley style kitchen. Still had all we needed and was not really a big deal for the two weeks we were there; we simply adjusted. Loved having a washer and dryer in the house. The drive is about a mile to the beach. We brought our two large dogs who loved the fenced in yard, and the beach early in the mornings. It was perfect for them. I enjoyed not having lots of other vacationers right up against us. We really liked the space and the privacy. The yard is also a good size. Our kids (ages 20 - 14) were able to set up several outside games to keep them occupied while we were at the house. I'd definitely recommend this property.

Melissa was very responsive. the property was very well Maintained and equipped with all that we needed( except a crib, but we knew about that) the house has plenty of room and was very clean. The beds were comfy and the house was thoughtfully decorated. The kitchen had everything you could need. The back yard was fenced which was wonderful with our ‘grands and their dog. We recommend this house and experience.

A great Maine cost vacation home

The house is in a great location for visiting the Maine cost. The Nubble light house is only about 2 miles away. The house has plenty of room and it's very cozy and clean. The instructions for the house were great. Melissa was very responsive with answers to my questions, which I really didn't even need to ask. She sent an e-mail prior to my stay that answered all my questions. I guess I should read my e-mails. I highly recommend this house for your Maine cost vacation. It's a great value!

Perfect place close to town

We enjoyed the house greatly. There were 3 married couples and one child. The house was clean and comfortable. Perfect for our long weekend at the beach. There is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the house. We cooked a few meals as well and everything we needed was there...pots, pans, utensils, and dishes.
