Welcome to Best of Both Beaches! ...
No need to choose which beach to go to in York... this bright, happy beach is between both Short Sands AND Long Sands Beaches! Just STEPS from Short Sands, a few blocks from Long Sands Beach, and walking distance to Nubble Lighthouse. You'll just love the house and the location! The large enclosed front porch welcomes you and you'll love to hang out there after a day at the beach. This is a WHOLE house with separate living room, dinning room and spacious kitchen (not all tucked into the same one room) and bedrooms on 2nd floor. And a NEW Outdoor Shower to enjoy after a wonderful day at the beach. Washer & Dryer on first floor

There is plenty of room for everyone to hang out on the first floor with hard wood floors in full size living room and dining room. Sunny living room with charming fireplace and sleeper couch (if a relative comes for a night) offers space for all to hang out after a day exploring York. No need to keep running upstairs with a half bathroom on the first floor!

Enjoy meals and board games on the large dinning room table in the separate bright dining room with built-in china hutch. You can cook out back with the GAS Grill. Get supper ready in the fully stocked sunny kitchen with ceramic floors. A wonderful bonus screened-in back porch where everyone can come for lunch with their bathing suits still on. Or come back at the end of the beach day and leave all their gear, or just sit and chat with folks in the kitchen. WiFi included.

Air Conditioning on the first & second floor for those rare super hot days.

Be ready to fight over who gets the 2 of the 3 bedrooms with an OCEAN VIEW! The 2nd floor has a full bath room with shower/tub, 3 bedrooms (2 rooms have 1 full bed, 1 has 2 single beds) and cozy carpet on the whole second floor! We have many guests who come back year after year to this special Best of Both Beaches house, so make your reservation before it is too late.

Just walk down the hill to enjoy all of downtown York Beach, with its bandstand, Ellis Park, playground, basketball courts, shops, and Goldenrod taffy!

We do NOT allow guests to bring pets regardless of size, fur/hair, training or age of pet. Thank you.

Winter Rentals (6 month minimum) available October-May, but does not include heat, Wifi, cable tv or snow removal. One month security required with 90+ day rental.

    Sarah was a fantastic host. She was proactive and responsive whenever we reached out to her. The check in and check out expectations were well communicated. We loved the location to the beach, shops, and restaurants. Such a fantastic beach spot for the family.

    This rental week be an easy rebook for me and my family. Everyone enjoyed their rooms, and the screened in front porch was an amazing easy to spend down time between trips to the beach. The beach was so close we were walking from the rental to short sands 3+ times a day. And let me say that Sarah is a fantastic host. Book this rental with confidence!

    This house is in the absolute best location! 2 minute easy walk to short sands and easy 6 minute walk to long sands. Sarah was very communicative and helpful. The front porch is great for sitting and visiting while the kids play. The house was spotless. Outdoor shower was a great treat. Walked everywhere from beach to shops to restaurants, playgrounds, park etc. house is relaxing and calm. Parking was easy. Would 100% rent this property again!

    We had a wonderful week! Location was perfect, a short 2 minute walk to short sands beach. Sarah was very responsive- when we needed new lightbulbs for the bathroom she had them there the same day. Didn’t use back porch as it was much to hot during our stay..did sit on front porch when it wasn’t too humid-only thing I wish was that seats on front porch were a little higher to see out (not really a complaint, just a wish). Overall a nice place to stay,can’t wait for next year.

    We loved our stay on York— we’ve been coming annually for a long time, but with a toddler we decided it would be better to have a house to come home to. This really worked out for us! The house is very welcoming. The kitchen has everything you’d need to cook, and there is plenty of space to spread out. We used both porches, and the laundry was a lifesaver. The location is perfect- we walked comfortably to both beaches. Downtown is right around the corner for snacks and coffee. We love when things are walkable, so this location worked out great! Sarah was very communicative and helpful. We can’t wait to go back!

    My husband has been coming to York every summer since he was a kid and when we got together we decided to continue the tradition. This is the 4th house that we have rented over the years and we finally found a house that we will book again! The house is a great size, there is plenty of space in the rooms and the closets. It is so perfectly located between both beaches and town. The hosts were great, very responsive and even gave us a text reminder to take out the trash! Just a warning that there is no outdoor shower or spigot so things can get a little sandy. And the driveway is very tight on one side but manageable. Overall a really great visit and we can't wait to come back!

    This house is perfect for your beach vacation! It is a quick walk to the Short Sands Beach, the arcade and the shops. Sarah was very easy to deal with and got back to me right away with any questions. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen and baths were cleaned professionally in between renters but the other areas were done by the previous renter which keeps the cleaning fee down.
