York 2025

We had a FABULOUS stay at this beautiful York house. There was room for everyone to be together or little spots to go to get away if you wanted to . Loved waking up to see Nubble light house. That view never gets old. There happened to be a meteor shower during the week we stayed so we enjoyed star gazing on the back deck.We were able to walk to the beach or town.Thank you so very much for sharing your home.Am looking forward to booking again in the future.Thanks againMaria

Lovely Vacation

The house is beautiful! Plenty of room for all of us. 6 adults a 3 year old and 1 year old and a 10 year old. Nice backyard to play in! Very close to walk to Nubble Light House where you can get food and ice cream. We liked the walk to Long Sands and Short Sands beach. Great place

Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay very much! We loved being in the neighborhood close to Nubble Light and also to Dunne’s. Both beaches were fantastic, a short distance away. The cottage was wonderful for a family stay with lots of space. We enjoyed the large gathering space with kitchen, family area and 2 decks! Lots of great meals enjoyed on the decks! The weather was perfect!

Nubble Stay

This was such an amazing property with a great location. The 4-level floor plan gave plenty of space for our large party that stayed there. Having a combination of children and adults can always be difficult but in this space with all the different living areas everyone had room to spread out and enjoy our vacation. The owners were easy to get in touch with and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful area

Very roomy property, with terrific views of a piece of the ocean and Nubble Light (only about 4 short blocks away) from the 3rd floor master. Home was nicely furnished and in a very quiet spot. Easy drive to center of York Beach and to the expansive Long Sands Beach, where we spent the days on the beach, enjoying the water and beach games. Owners always got back to us promptly about our inquiries.

Family vacation

The house was great - very spacious which allowed everyone to have their space when needed. The main floor was perfect for gathering as well. We had 12 people in our group, ranging in ages from 1 to 80. The house was within walking distance to Fox’s Lobster House, Dunnes ice cream and the lighthouse which was extremely convenient. Communication with the owners was good, answering questions promptly. There was no AC which wasn’t a huge issue for us but may have been if it was 80-90 all week.

Beautiful Home!

We had a great stay at this property. There was tons of room to be spread out which was great with a few families. The table big enough for 10 was a huge bonus as we were always able to sit together. The backyard was sizable enough to play yard games. The deck on the main living floor had a nice patio set and you could see the water from there. It was really convenient having a bathroom on each floor and having the additional outdoor shower (with a foot rinse part as well). The house is a short walk to the Nubble, Fox’s, and Dunne’s. One drawback was that the master bedroom has blinds on the windows but one entire wall is a triple sized glass slider with no curtain so you had limited privacy in the master bedroom. Guests will want to bring blankets. The blankets at the house are super light and don’t provide much warmth so make sure to bring that bedding as well. The owners were very responsive to any questions we had and we had a really great week there. We would definitely recommend this property to others!

Exceptional Location and Beautiful House!

My family and I were late to book a vacation property this season, and we were so lucky that Gary and Sue had a last minute cancelation to let us book with them! They were so accommodating and the property was gorgeous. The house had 3 floors of bedrooms, which was perfect for us so each family pretty much had their own floor. The common area was very spacious and clean. Great location, walking distance to the lighthouse and beaches. The decks make for a great place to have your morning coffee. We had a 1 year old up to a 70 year old and every one was very happy! You will want to bring sheets/towels (including hand towels, kitchen clothes, etc.) and bedding if you need anything more than a light blanket, Beds were comfy. It does get very warm in the house during the day, but at night with the drop in temps and breeze from the ocean it was perfect. Fans in every room too. It is very bright in the house with no curtains which did make it a little difficult for my 1 year old to want to nap, but we made it work. For our stay we noticed that there wasn't any extra toilet paper or paper towels (just one roll per bathroom), so we did buy some more in case we needed it which wasn't a problem. The home is perfect for a large family, we would definitely stay again!

Dirty, Unsanitary, Uncomfortable

Our family booked this property for 4th of July for three nights. We packed up and left as soon as we woke up after the first night. We noticed cleanliness issues as soon as we walked in, and when we contacted the owners they blamed us for being the first renters of the season, and then stopped communicating. We spent the first 3 hours after our arrival buying cleaning supplies (the owners do not provide anything except a sponge that looked to be 3 years old) and cleaning the house because it was filthy! Even with the COVID pandemic it was clear that the rental had not been professionally cleaned before our arrival. This home has a lot of potential- it is large and in a good location...but the positives end there. The condition of the house was filthy- dirty floors, dirty walls, pots and pans caked with dust and grime, the hood over the stove was covered in grease and dust. The baseboard heating and window sills were full of dust bunnies, cobwebs and dead bugs. The "charming" outdoor shower is actually a falling down shack totally overgrown with weeds. The indoor shower had a cheap, flimsy liner that was ripped from the rings and had multiple holes. The furniture throughout the home is a hodge-podge of old and damaged furniture. The decks would be a great place to sit if the owners provided deck furniture that was useable. Instead they provide old, deteriorating plastic chairs with moldy cushions that don't fit the chairs. The plastic adirondack chair used at the only outdoor table (imagine using a low Adirondack chair at a dining table...) was so old that green plastic dust particles covered my 2 year old son after he climbed onto it. Don't plan on sleeping past 5am either since the bedrooms do not have shades or curtains. The neighbors and anyone walking by have a clear unobstructed view inside the master bedroom making sleeping or changing clothes extremely creepy. Bottom line, these owners do not care about your experience. There is absolutely no effort by these owners to make the rental comfortable or welcoming. From the cleanliness to the furniture to the amenities this place is a disaster. I'd STRONGLY recommend staying elsewhere.

Bright and Airy

Overall the house felt great. There was a lot of natural light. The main floor open concept was lovely. It was nice to have a separate living space for the kids to go. Fortunately, I read a review of a previous renter that gave a tip to take extra blankets... I'm glad we did as there were only very light blankets and no comforters or bedspread provided. For future renters: 1. if you are sensitive to synthetic fragrances be sure to let them know ahead of time so they can use different cleaning products/laundry detergent. 2. the chef's kitchen - I'll say that the small frying pans are deteriorating toxic Teflon, they are not set up for lobster as it stated in the description (ex - they had a couple of nutcrackers, not lobster crackers, no ramekin's for butter), 3. missing a complete set of measuring cups and spoons, 4. missing normal size cereal bowls, 5. no dish drying rack. The neighbors were very loud... they weren't even outside - but through their open windows it was as if they were inside our house. It made it so the 3rd-floor master couldn't have their windows open for sleeping. AND with all that said - it was still great and we had lots of space. The outside shower was AMAZING!

Beautiful home

We had such a great stay at this house! We were a very last minute booking, total of 11 people ranging from 60’s to 2 years old. The neighborhood is ideal if you want to stay away from the crowding and noise. It was a very nice and doable walk to the Nubble lighthouse and to Dunnes ice cream. Some reviews said they walked to short or long sands beach, I however would not make the walk with children, there’s no sidewalks and it would be too far for little ones. We went to Ogunquit almost every day which is about a 15-20 minute ride depending on traffic. The house was beautiful, hard wood floors throughout, updated kitchen appliances, TVs, laundry room. The master suite has a wonderful deck that you can see the lighthouse from. There is also a pyramid bunk bed on the top floor which wasn’t shown in the pictures but it was a great surprise to fit people comfortably. Plenty of dishes, pots, pans, silverware in the open kitchen floor plan. There is no a/c but we didn’t need it. The house is all windows and has ceiling fans and box fans if needed. Some things were a little dusty but if you’re going to nit pick that kind of stuff, you shouldn’t be renting a house. The owners were very responsive and wonderful to work with if we had any questions. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to anyone.

Very desirable, spacious and nicely finished four level home with all the amenities. My wife, daughters, boyfriends and other family members all remarked about the quality of the home. Walk to Nubble Light, seafood restaurant, ice cream shop or bike around the peninsula. Beaches within 5 minute drive. Thoroughly enjolyable.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Torosian

Host profile image
Sue and Gary have been married for 27 years and reside in Massachusetts. They enjoy their home in York whenever possible - weekends, getaways, or full weeks. They love hosting because the house is large enough to host multiple familes who come together for a reunion or vacation. The house is always full of laughter and enjoyment year round.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood has a mix of year-round residents and seasonal occupants. It is very quiet and private. We see lots of wildlife (e.g. deer, racoons, etc.). It is very close to the Nubble lighthouse and both long and short sands beaches. Also, it is accessible to many highly rated restaurants and shopping malls/outlets.

What makes this property unique

Very open, can accommodate multiple families/people, very bright and cheery, quiet, private, and cozy with all the amenities of home.
