Lilac Haven is now closed to weekly rentals for the winter. We will be opened beginning June 1, 2013. Thank you for a wonderful summer season!
Lilac Haven is an Early American, Post and Beam Farmhouse that dates back to 1750. Our location is in the heart of all the excitement of the beach area, yet remains private and secluded as it is nestled back from the main road and tucked in among glorious flower gardens.
While relaxing on the private farmer's porch having early morning coffee you can listen to the birds singing in the trees and enjoy the gorgeous butterflies as they meander throughout the garden. The serenity and peacefulness of the area allows you to plan your day for a trip to the beach (about a 3 minute walk), hiking, golfing, antiquing, or shopping at nearby outlet malls. There are wonderful restaurants that you can walk to in the village with a wide variety of choices from lobster to pizza.
In the evenings you can walk to the bandstand and listen to the entertainment that changes each night. You can relax on the grass with an ice-cream or delicious home-made candy & fudge from several of the wonderful shops. The beach area caters to families, yet also respects the privacy of those who want just romantic time to themselves!
There are three bedrooms. On the first floor is the Master Bedroom/bathroom, a sleep sofa is in the living room, and on the second floor there are two bedrooms - twin beds in one room and 2 double beds in the other bedroom, they both share a full bathroom.
By law there is a 7% Maine Sales Tax which is not included in the cost of weekly rental.

I wanted to let you know we arrived home after a lovely 2-week stay at your Lilac Haven. I wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much we enjoyed it there. It was the perfect spot to park the car and leave it and enjoy all that York Beach has to offer within walking distance of the front porch. Of course what made it extra special for me was that I could have my dog there with us. Thank you again for your hospitality. We have already begun discussion about next year's vacation & looking forward to returning.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

After 16 years of coming to York Beach 10 of them have been at "Lilac Haven". We are still making "memories" to last a lifetime. Thank you, Sarah, we love you! The NH Gang.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

My husband and I, along with a few family members from Europe, stayed in this lovely cottage in August last year. It's the quintessential Maine experience! Very clean and perfectly located for day trips - but the place was so relaxing - we didn't want to leave!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2
