    We had a great stay at Lilac Cottage. It’s a lovely old home. Location is very convenient to so many attractions. The kitchen is incredibly well-equipped. We especially enjoyed evenings on the outdoor patio. The front porch was awesome for reading, napping or just hanging out and chatting. There were tons of games, puzzles, beach and lawn toys, and movies. There really is a lot of space for people to spread out and enjoy! When we arrived the home was very hot (weather was in the 90s) and we had to work to get the home cooled down. The air conditioning units are in the windows of the third floor bedrooms, and there is a portable unit we found in the master bedroom. Otherwise the main level and second level of the house have window fans and ceiling fans. I was alarmed on the first night we arrived and worried the house would not be cool enough for my extended family but it ended up working out as we got the hang of how to use the fans, where to capture the cross breeze, and the weather cooled down.

    Very nice home. Well kept with the traditional costal vibe. We would go back. The only thing to note is, based on theListing we were unde the impression the detached room was included in the rental price and when we received the check in instructions a. 100 fee would have been added if we used it, so we did not. But a beautiful home and walking to nature was a plus along with a/c units in the bedrooms upstairs. Thank you!

    We stayed here with our immediate family and extended family for our daughter’s wedding weekend. It was great to meet the other family here for a bbq Thursday night. The bakery cousin backed all the cupcakes and their wedding cake in the kitchen. Oven was perfect! Elderly family members stayed in the “rec” room as there were less steps. This place is perfect for this or a couple of families on a holiday!

    It was such a a beautiful comfortable house (with the most comfortable beds!!), and the hosts were so communicative and had super fast response rates. Its also located next the famous Wiggly Bridge which was a fun after noon walk!

    If you need a place with plenty of room this is it.we enjoyed having the front porch to gather. While others played cards in another room. Convenient to go for walks. Many sleeping options with all the beds.

    We recently stayed here for an extended wedding weekend, with our large group of immediate family members. The property was beautiful and spacious and everything that was reflected in the listing. The hosts were immediately responsive to any questions, however, they also have a very detailed book wifh everything you need to know! The house came equipped with endless yard games, wireless speakers, ample outdoor seating (summer season), and the layout of the home was so perfect to give people space and quiet when needed! Third floor is ideal for kiddos as its closed off and you cant hear a thing! We will absolutely be back. Thank you so much Jill and Carin!

    We came to York for a vacation with extended family. The house was perfect - beautiful, spotlessly clean, and in a great location. We loved our stay!

    Mornings on the enclosed sun porch and late afternoons on the patio - this wonderful home was perfect for young adults as much as my elderly Dad. We loved the wonderfully equipped kitchen and the collection of games kept everyone occupied on a couple rainy days. The outdoor shower and beach chairs were much appreciated. We hope to come back next year!!

    My family and I were in a difficult situation with our rental backing out the day before our trip. We were able to book this location and have zero regrets. It was more than we expected. The home was beyond comfortable for our group and location could not have been better. The host was very responsive and kind to save our vacation/family reunion. When we come back to the area if this is available we will absolutely book here again.

    Spacious, well appointed house in York, Maine. Great location steps from the Wiggle Bridge and short walk to town and waterfront. Lovely front porch to enjoy views. Lots of space for extended family to spread out. Outdoor furniture was not out for our stay (it was beginning of summer season)
