Daughters birthday/ Mother’s Day
We stayed for the weekend to celebrate our daughter’s 11th birthday/ Mother’s Day!It was a beautiful home within a short walk to the beach, and plenty of space for our family of 4 to move around. We would definitely stay again!

A relaxing stay in York
This beautifully updated home was all we hoped for; the kitchen was well equipped, the property was immaculate and the location was perfect. We enjoyed Short Sands Beach and the restaurants nearby, especially the Lobster House. The owner is quick to respond to any inquiry and we just enjoyed ourselves so much here. We hope to return again in the future.

Best of both worlds
Our party consisted of 4 adults and 2 dogs. The property was clean, very comfortable and the host thought of everything we needed before we even knew we needed it! Easy walk to the best part of Long Sands beach. Quiet, lush location in safe neighborhood. Great sunroom and deck with grill. Loved this place, host was a click away if we had questions otherwise we had full privacy. We will be back!!

Great weekend escape
We were attending a wedding in nearby Portsmouth, but wanted something a bit quieter. Boy, did we find the spot! Nice, quiet street, house on a nice size lot, with super easy access to all points. Beaches in York are literally less than a 5 min drive. Next time we stay, we’re hitting the beaches!!

Wonderful vacation home!
We stayed at this vacation house for 5 nights over Memorial day weekend. We were immediately taken with the house and property, and truly enjoyed our home away from home. The house is bright and welcoming with nearly the whole house having been recently updated. The hosts thought of every detail and provided loads of items needed for a great vacation at the beach. The quiet street location was ideal for our family. We definitely plan to return!
