About this property

Spacious Yard, Quick Stroll to Long Sands Beach!

This home will not disappoint you! It is perfect for 2 families traveling together. Previously rented as 2 units, the new owners have made the great decision to rent as one home. Enjoy the convenience of 2 kitchens, tons of room, a HUGE yard, firepit, 3 decks, WIFI, 2 flat screen TV's and so much more! All freshly painted with new furniture and beds, it is delightful! ** Please note, the map in Homeaway is not showing the property in the correct location due to a problem with their mapping software. The home is located at 233 Long Sands Road. Located only a half of mile to Long Sands Beach, it is an easy 10 minute stroll with sidewalks all the way. For your convenience, the owners have a new beach wagon to transport your gear. Spend the day at the beach, and then come home to relax in this large retreat! The kids will enjoy the large back yard while you enjoy the convenience of preparing dinner with two kitchens and the outdoor gas grill. Two fridges are a huge help when large groups travel together! The second living room upstairs is a great place for the kids! There is a large, wall mounted flat screen, games and space to play! Parents will enjoy a little downtime on the farmers porch at the same time. 5 bedrooms allow room for everyone and it is wonderful to have 3 full baths!

Favorite!

We come to York every year. This house was a little bit further from the water than we usually stay, but it was worth it! It was so clean and had room for all our needs. The upstairs gave our teens the space they needed. The yard allowed for lots of games. We can’t wait to come back!

Sleeps 14? Yes it does!

We were a large family group that never felt crowded in this lovely well-stocked rental house. There were old folks, millennials, and children ranging in age from five to seventeen. We enjoyed all three floors from ping pong in the basement to two living rooms, two kitchens and three bathrooms! Perfect set up. The walk to the beach was no problem especially with the use of two beach wagons! We had a wonderful vacation in York!

Nice place and location..but

Our stay with 8 family members was pretty good. The house had plenty of space and the amenities- TV, appliances , beds were in great shape. The location was only a 12 minute walk to Long Sands Beach.There were a few items that detracted from 5 stars: trash still behind the trash can and on the back deck; a broken and dangerous fire pit not fixed until Tuesday night , a lawn not mowed for about 10 days until Thursday and prevalent ants in the kitchen. All relatively minor but also which could have been fixed with a little more attention.

Great Place for a family vacation in York

We had three families at the house and it was perfect for our group. Two kitchens and living rooms is very helpful for large groups. The appliances and kitchenware are modern and the house is well stocked. The grill is very nice. We love this part of York and this section of Long Sands so the location worked great for us. Thank you for this great place!

Really nice family vacation

We enjoyed the space of this house and location was great. Everything smelled clean when we arrived and everything was in good condition. Comfy beds too. Only a couple of small issues: the wifi password was wrong in the house manual and we get zero signal at the house so it took a while the first day to get that straightened out but the management company sent a lovely guy named Lou. The house also used window a/cs in bedrooms and split units in common areas but one bedroom had no a/c and it was a very hot weekend. So one of our family members was hot at night. Not a huge deal but why leave one bedroom without? We would stay again and loved having 2 living rooms! Special bonus was the fire pit out back and ping pong table in basement (and darts!)

Great family vacation home

The property was beautiful, but one of the bedrooms did not have AC. The washing machine and dryer were small for a family, but we made it work. Everything else was just great, and the location to Long Sands beach was accurate. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Excellent Property!!

This was the perfect house for our family!! My husband and I stayed at this property with our grown children and 6 grandchildren. It was very spacious. Having the huge yard for the kids to play outside was awesome. We enjoyed a lot of time outside. We also enjoyed ping pong and the dartboard in the basement! The road was a little busier than I would have like but the walk to the beach was only 10 minutes. Thank you so much for making our vacation perfect!. We would stay here again for sure!

Great house and backyard!

House had plenty of room! Amazingly clean! Beds are very comfortable! Plenty of work out equipment and a ping pong table downstairs! Bring all your own spices ( including salt and pepper) Booklet could be more informative regarding tv remotes! Zero communication with management company! Tried to inform them of things found broken when we arrived and request a solution, absolutely no response from them all week!

Great location

This property had everything you could possibly need. Big yard for the kids, deck and porch to relax on, games and movies for rainy days, fire pit for s’mores! The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, pots and pans and utensils. Located half mile from the beach with a sidewalk all the way to keep the little ones safe. Highly recommend!

Good house for 2 families

The house is lovely, especially the first floor. It’s very comfortable and fairly clean (the blinds on the windows were really dusty though). The kitchen is well stocked. Although the road is fairly busy, the house isn’t that far from the beach. One downfall is the lack of storage space. My family had the 2nd level and there wasn’t one closet on that floor. Actually there was, but it was locked. There were no nightstands in either bedroom. A small dresser in one and the other had a wardrobe, but only the 2 bottom drawers were empty. We lived out of our suitcases all week which wasn’t conducive to feeling at home. We had a good week anyway.

Great place

The house was great. Well stocked. Well located. Great back yard. Nice side porch. Very comfortable. Our family was small and it was a lot of house. I am certain it would be well suited for a bigger family.

Wonderful family home

Great home for accommodating large family that values both communal and solitary time. We were grandparents vacationing with our two children and their families. The four young grandkids had a blast sharing the bunk bed room and our two children and their spouses each had their own floor with living room and kitchen to escape to when alone time was needed. The fire pit, lawn games, grill and backyard offered activities when not at the beautiful beach. All 10 of us want to come back again! It will be a “family tradition” to quote our grandkids.

Long weekend in York

We had planned a reunion of ten former high school friends from the 60s. Sadly only 6 could make it but we loved the house and location, and had a wonderful time. Everything was really clean. Our only concern was the lack of railings on the steps to the front porch. The first step going down is an unusual depth and three of us fell during our stay. No injuries but we hope you add a railing.

Perfect for multi family vacation

The house was just as nice as expected. The house was perfect for us. The grandchildren enjoyed an Easter egg hunt in the front yard, we used the fire pit in the evening, and the barbecue grill and deck meal time. It was a short walk to the beach for us every day. Having the two levels gave space for the children who had to go to bed early in the night owls wanted to stay up and watch TV and play games. We cooked every meal in and found the kitchen to be quite adequate. The bunkroom was an added bonus for a little kids. We would eagerly stay there another time.

Family Fun!

This house was perfect for our family! The two living spaces worked out great. The downstairs living/kitchen area was large and open to accommodate the entire family when we wanted to be all together. The large backyard was a plus. House was lovely! Property managers were available to answer questions 👍 I would rent this property again 😊
