Water, water everywhere! This house has the most fabulous location.

Our spacious sun porch overlooking peaceful York Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean offers an ideal spot for a leisurely meal or to linger and watch the yachts and sailboats come and go. Lush lawn and gardens sloping down to the water’s edge provide a tranquil setting for a good book or a refreshing drink, or simply lean back in the Adirondack chairs and let the sea breezes ease your mind.

Take a walk on our deep water pier for an even closer look at the harbor activity. The view of the sunset from the pier’s edge is unforgettable. On the other side, you’ll discover York Harbor Beach just steps away from our front door (500ft to be exact), perfect for swimming, sunbathing and beach combing. The Cliff Path wanders atop rocky ledges and offers many great vistas of the crashing ocean waves below. And don't forget the Harbor Walk which meanders along York Harbor and the York River. Two great restaurants are within a 5-minute walk of the house. The location is fabulous.

This massive turn-of-the-century Victorian estate has approx. 10,000 square feet of living space. There are 9 bedrooms, 7 baths and laundry facilities. We provide Adirondack chairs, beach chairs, beach towels, and shower products to cover everyone in your group. There is a garage where you can store your bikes, paddle boards, etc. All rooms have fast WIFI and A/C. Large dining room table. Extra large kitchen plus a kitchenette / sitting room with total of 3 refrigerators! Additional rooms were opened up for the 2022 season so reviews prior to 2022 don't reflect the enlarged offering. New, high-quality AC units were added to all bedrooms in 2024.

The yard space is very versatile and enjoyable. Past guests have set up an inflatable pool for kids, a canopy for shade, and of course yard games. The harbor is fun for fishing, paddle boards, kayaks, etc. but bring some water shoes (the harbor is muddy)! There is a grill ready for you, with extra propane tanks.

There are a few things you should know. The decor of the house is older. There is a long-term tenant who lives in a basement apartment; both spaces are secure from one another with separate entrances. The dock is utilized by about 10 boats; it is fully booked but sometimes a visiting boat can be accommodated. There is separate parking on the far side of the house for dock members. There is a security camera on the exterior of the house. The pool that you might notice in satellite photos belongs to a condo association and unfortunately is not open to the public. Feel free to ask questions about any of this.

    This house was fabulous and perfect for our large family. Everything we needed was all at the house, from the large kitchen to all of the bedrooms with bathrooms. The large dining table was a nice way to have our family dinners every night, with lots of talk about the days adventures.This house was ideal for 14 adults and 4 little ones. If I could give more than 5 stars for this house, I would, and we are planning on coming back next year.

    The house was fabulous and just what we needed for our family who likes their “space” but also loves coming together to share our thoughts and happenings of our lives. We especially appreciated the LARGE dining table, allowing everyone to eat together at the same time! (Also gathering for fun, laughter and game playing). The kitchen was delightfully large, allowing more than one cook at a time and those who just wanted to watch while enjoying conversing with family. The bedrooms were beautifully arranged, the mattresses were comfortable for a great night sleep! Overall, the house was extremely clean, spacious with beautiful views and the amenities (AC, washer/dryer, bathrooms! dishwasher) were appreciated. I, as the matriarch of the family loved meeting Nathan, the owner. It was nice to put a face and have conversation with him. He made us feel very welcomed and told us to call him anytime with any questions or concerns that might arise. Overall, we had a great time and are going back next year!

    Already planning our return!This house was everything we needed and more. We brought family together from all over the country, and it was the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and spend quality time.The location was ideal—close to the beach, town, and walking trails. Some of us jogged to Nubble Light, others took easy strolls along the harbor. Cold ocean dips became a daily ritual! The house itself is super spacious and well set up. The big kitchen had everything we needed to cook for our crew of 11, and when we didn’t feel like cooking, Foster’s was right down the road. The sun porch quickly became everyone’s favorite spot—perfect for coffee in the morning, reading in the afternoon, and cocktails at night with that amazing view.We’ve already decided we’re coming back next summer. Highly recommend this place for any big family trip or gathering!

    We are a family of 14 with ages ranging from 18 months to 75 years old.The house was perfect for our family. The large dining table was able to fit everyone around and the views of the harbor were perfect.Close proximity to the beach was great for the children 6 through 14 and adults.The rooms were good and all had air conditioning units. We completed 3 of the jigsaws that were there.The large kitchen had plenty of dishware , glasses , utensils etc.We appreciated the wagon and beach toys and chairs that were available for our stay.We all had a great time and look forward to visiting Maine again in the future.

    We have rented big beach houses before for a yearly family vacation and this house is hands down the best we have rented. Positives: views (both ocean and harbor), AC in all the rooms if needed, well stocked kitchen, quiet.

    17 of us ages 73 to 3. We had enough bedrooms and baths to go around. The kitchen was huge. We were walking distance to the beach. Our manager was always available to answer our questions. I highly recommend.

    We had a blast on vacation this year! The house itself was wonderful. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and places to hang out. The views were fantastic and there was so much to do, as the house was in a great location! It was very clean, and having basic toiletries provided was quite nice. Nathan was very helpful with questions and concerns. Unfortunately, we had to wash a lot of dishes by hand since the dishwasher broke the first night we were there, but we survived. :) Thank goodness there was a second one, but that was a bit of a pain. The only thing we wished was different was the configuration/size of the deck. It was a bit small for all to gather on. Again, we survived and had a great time! :) I would definitely recommend checking this place out!

    My family had a wonderful time. We have 4 families with 5 children, and the home was big enough for all to have separate bedrooms and gathering areas. I highly recommend staying here. In addition, Nathan the host was extremely friendly and responsive.

    This was perfect for our large and growing family (17 of us!!) Everyone had space and comfort - yet we also had plenty of places to gather and hang out. The picturesque view and setting are incredible. And the proximity to the beach makes a beach day so simple and enjoyable. Nathan is a wonderful host. He’s communicative, responsive and kind. We’ve already reserved next year!

    Our group of 17 found the property very welcoming with plenty of room to find a quiet space when needed. The kitchen facility was spacious for the multiple cooks and helpers. The children ages 5 to 10 loved the place and want to return. The location was confident to the beach and walking distance to the town. One suggestion would be to update the outside grill.

    Our family had a great time. Our (adult) children and their children loved the house and the location. As the property description states... we were approx. 500' from York Harbor beach and it was so convenient for visiting/ using multiple times of the day. The house is older, with a lot of charm and our daughter in law (a great baker/cook) thought the kitchen was as well stocked as her own kitchen. Great spaces in the house for multiple activities. We had a great time and will definitely consider a return visit.
