Om overnatningsstedet

Classic Maine Cottage-kort gåtur til stranden, parker, naturstier og fine spisesteder

The Briars er et "hytte" fra det 19. århundrede i helvedesild beliggende i hjertet af York Harbour, Maine og en kort fem minutters gang til stranden. Lyt til fiskerbåde, når de forlader havnen hver morgen, lugt den salte luft og føl den blide havbrise. Hjemmet har underholdt gæster i over et århundrede, senest som en bed-and-breakfast i de sidste 30 år. Du har masser af plads til at samles med familie og venner, herunder masser af plads til afslapning på en af de mange verandaer / dæk. Nogle af værelserne har udsigt over havnen, hvor tiden langsomt vil gå, mens du ser bådene komme og gå. 8 soveværelser med 7 badeværelser betyder masser af plads for hele familien uden lange ventetider til at tage et brusebad! Det charmerende hjem blev renoveret i 2016 med 4 nye badeværelser (de andre tre af syv er allerede moderne) og nye møbler for at sikre, at du får et meget behageligt ophold. Vi tilbyder en af de bedste priser pr. Værelse / per nat eller per person / per nat for enhver stor leje i York Harbor.

Vores hjem er i et ideelt sted at nyde de efterspurgte omgivelser i York Harbor. Gæster kan nemt gå til Harbour Beach kendt for sin familievenlige atmosfære. Cliff Walk starter ved Harbour Beach og tilbyder en spektakulær udsigt over den klippede Maine kyst og fantastiske viktorianske palæer. Hartley Mason ejendom er en smuk offentlig park med udsigt over Harbour Beach med blomsterhaver og masser af skygge fra sommersolen. Moulton Park ligger to døre ned ad gaden fra os med en fantastisk plads til enhver udendørs aktivitet med masser af sol og skygge. Fisherman's Walk er få skridt væk, hvor du slentre langs floden og nyde udsigten over bådene, der kommer ind og ud af havnen - inklusive lobsterman med deres friske fangst af dagen. Fisherman's walk bringer dig til Wiggly Bridge-Steadman Woods, hvor du kan tage en løkke gennem skoven eller fortsætte med at gå til den historiske York Village. York Village (mindre end fem minutter væk i bil, i tilfælde af at du mistede oversigten over hvor længe du har gået) blev afgjort i 1624 (3 år efter Plymouth Plantation!) og tilbyder et rigt udvalg af historiske bygninger (f. eks. Old Gaol - et af de ældste fængsler i Amerika; et et-værelses skolehus; Jefferds Tavern; The Old Burying Ground med 18. århundrede udskårne gravsten; og John Hancock Warehouse osv. .).

Havnen er rig på kultur og god mad. York Art Association er placeret et par huse nede ad gaden fra os. George Marshall butiksgalleri er placeret gennem Steadman Woods og har en række kunstudstillinger i løbet af året (kuratoren bor nede på gaden fra vores hus). Der er andre små gallerier og butikker i landsbyen. York Harbor Inn, Stage Neck Inn og Chapman Cottage tilbyder hver især prisbelønnet mad og er alle fem minutters gang fra vores hjem. Dockside Restaurant er placeret på tværs af havnen (fem minutters kørsel væk) og er et godt sted at se marinaen og spise et godt måltid. Marinaen tilbyder båd- og kajakudlejning for dem, der ønsker at opleve noget ”hav” -kultur.

York-området og de omkringliggende byer tilbyder en uendelig liste over ting at gøre. Besøg fyrtårne. Gå på hvalsafari. Udforsk forter og historiske seværdigheder. Nyd Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge. Vandretur Mt. Agamenticus for en betagende udsigt over havet mod øst og skov / bjerge mod vest (du kan også køre til toppen, hvis du føler dig doven og besøge naturudstillingen i den gamle skihytte). Handle i Kittery Outlets (gem dette i de regnfulde dage). Besøg strandpromenaden i York Beach med en forlystelsespark, bowling, arkade, butikker, live underholdning, saltvand taffy og mere. Vandre-cykelture-sejlsport-solbadning ... eller bare læse en bog i de mange kroge i vores smukke hjem. Du vil elske det afslappede tempo i Maine. Der er en grund til, at vores statsmotto er "Maine, hvordan livet skal være".

Ønsker du at rumme en endnu større gruppe? Spørg os om vores nye ejendom med seks soveværelser, Grassmere, der ligger kun få døre væk. Meget stor græsplæne med udsigt over York Harbor - perfekt til en bryllupsfest eller stor familiesammenføring. Vi har også en 9 værelses ejendom, der vil være tilgængelig i 2018.

This house was perfect for our trip. We had 12 people and there was more than enough room for everyone. Everyone had their own space and bathroom. The front porch was amazing! The balcony off of the top floor King room was also so nice to sit and look out onto the water. Everything about it was perfect and Lance was an amazing host and communicator! We will be back!

Annually we go on an extended family vacation. This was the 1st 4 generation trip and our first one to Maine. We’re so glad we stayed at The Briars. Everyone in our large group had their own space. It’s a wonderful location… short walk to the beach, ice cream shop, and bagels/breakfast. We took many strolls through the beautiful neighborhood, Fisherman’s walk, & the Wiggly Bridge (it’s gorgeous at sunset). Parking was not a problem. At one point, we had 6 cars in the driveway… and could have fit 1 or 2 more. The yard was big enough to accommodate our annual “family Olympics” and we enjoyed relaxing on the front porch. Lance was an exceptional host. He stopped by with a bottle of wine to meet us and even dropped off his lobster crackers when we couldn’t find the ones in the rental. Saved the day for our lobster feast! The rental crackers were later found under a large pot. Overall, it was a memorable vacation and we would love to stay here again if a future family vacation is in Maine.

Hi Gary! Thanks so much for your generous and detailed review. It was so nice to meet you and your family. I loved your mom calling me the week before you arrived to go through her checklist -- she is such a peach! Those dang lobster crackers -- even I can have a hard time tracking down items when they get move around throughout the season -- I'm glad we found them! You all have an awesome tradition of vacationing as a family -- now with the first great grandchild! I look forward to hosting you all again for your next "Maine" vacation! Lance

We had a wonderful time in York at The Briars. We were a multigenerational group of 15. We loved playing games in the front yard and hanging on the beautiful porch. We loved exploring all the sitting areas and the big bedrooms (most with en-suite bath) allowed for private/quiet spaces. The house itself had so many amenities and we definitely loved borrowing the yard games and beach chairs/towels. The lobster crackers came in handy for a big lobster feast and the grill was great for the non-seafood eaters. The location of this house was pretty perfect. We loved walking the fisherman’s path along the water to the wiggly bridge. And the beach was also a short walk away. All in all, it was the perfect house for our group!

Group of friends come up each fall to enjoy Maines beauty and eat lobster! We also went on a sail boat tour that was wonderful! The house was well equipped for our lobster feasts and all meals. Plenty of room, very comfortable, and we loved the front porch too. Walking distance to great restaurants and the water. Went to York beach since it was unseasonably warm and that was great!

I'm a bit concerned that your group may have been working too much -- having one forget their computer and the other a charging cord -- maybe it was a subliminal sign for your friends to stop working and enjoy the beauty of Maine! :) Glad we were able to get both items returned to their owners. I hope you'll all come back and visit with us again.

We celebrated our daughter’s wedding close by and the house was perfect for that, from top to bottom. Very spacious and super clean, nice rooms, good variety of toys for kids, great porch, you can walk to the beach, to town … very pleasant to have a good time, to enjoy with friends and family.Thanks for everything!

Perfect house

This house almost seemed too good to be true…..but it lived up to the hype!!Stayed with my husband, our 3 children, 2 spouses & 2 grandchildren. There was plenty of room to be, both inside and out. Loved all the bedrooms & bathrooms options.Had a good amount of things for the kiddos, from a pack n play to a room full of toys and beach toys.Close to the beach and town, although town was small.

Hi Ellen! Thanks very much for your kind review! I enjoyed meeting you, your husband and family! I'm so happy that everyone had an amazing time at our home. You are the 2nd guest in a row to mention the playroom and beach gear -- THANK YOU - I forget to include that in the description of the house and it's something that my guests have really appreciated over the years! York Village IS small but we love that our guests can easily walk to a great coffee shop, ice cream (that has amazing ice cream cookie sandwiches), convenience store and a bunch of historical museums -- those haven't changed much since I was kid growing up here. I'm not sure if you ventured down to York Beach (10 min drive) there is a small zoo/amusement park, arcade, bowling alley, touristy shops etc. Portsmouth, NH is only 15 minutes away and has an incredible amount of things to experience. Many guests like staying in the quieter part of town but being able to easily get to these other spots via a short drive. We also have 3 incredible restaurants that are a 5 minute walk from the house (writing this more for future guests than for you!). We look forward to you all coming back to stay with us again!

Great Venue for Strategy Meeting

Had 8 people attend a corporate strategy offsite meeting. Great house, location and communication from the owner.

Hi Scott, I'm so glad that I got to meet you and some of your team. I'm happy that everyone had a great experience with your offsite at the Briars. I thought it was so cool that one of your colleagues came all the way from Paris to attend a meeting in York Harbor, Maine! I'm glad that your team building activities (cooking class at the house by a fantastic local caterer and a bike tour in Portsmouth) were well received. All the best to you and your team for future success. Lance

Nothing shy of amazing!

Our entire family was thrilled with this stay. The property was fabulous, the location so beautiful and the host really tied everything together with a bow. We heartily recommend The Briars and hope to return soon! Lance- Thanks for making it so special.

Hi Leslie, It was so nice to meet you and your whole family. Your granddaughters were the best castle builders I've ever seen -- so great to see them putting all the toys in the house to good use! I loved all the different adventures that your family embraced during your week. I really hope you'll come back and visit again! Lance

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC LOCATION & HOUSE

This house is a game changer for a large family. The house is massive, plenty of good sleeping arrangements, and with 15 people, 6 kids under 11, the house is amazingly quiet.

Hi Alex, Thanks for taking the time to share your review. It was great to meet you and your family. I'm glad that you had an awesome experience despite the large storm and losing power for part of the day (at least you weren't alone as half the town was dealing with it too!). I'm glad that you loved that the house is large enough for the big group to be together but has plenty of nooks and different porches to find some quiet time. I hope that you'll come visit us again sometime. All the best Lance

Perfect vacation!

The Briars is the place to stay! The house was perfect in every detail, very inviting and extremely clean. Lance was a great host and very helpful. We vacationed with 6 adults and 7 teens. Everyone raved about how much fun they had. York Harbor is the place to be and The Briars is the place to stay!

Hi Kathy, I'm so happy that you all had an amazing experience at the Briars. It was a pleasure to meet you, your family and the kids friends. I'm glad my local connections helped to retrieve one of the teens phone from the local police department -- those withdrawals could have been tough. :) I was impressed with all the time that the teenagers hung out playing games and doing puzzles (we finished the one you shared with us -- thank you!). I hope you'll come back and visit us again some time. Lance

Great time at The Briars!

Our stay at The Briars was great! The cottage was beautiful. We loved spending our mornings on the large front porch and enjoyed the firepit at night. The location to the beach and the walkways was very convenient. We highly recommend staying at the Briars. Thank you Lance!

Om værten

Vært: Lance

Værtens profilbillede
I was born in York and raised just down the street from this beautiful home. One of my best friends lived next door to this home and I spent countless hours/days playing in the neighborhood -- exploring fun spots such as the Harbor Beach, Cliff Walk, Fisherman's Walk, Wiggly Bridge-Steedman Woods, Moulton Park just to name a few! As a boy I delivered newspapers and mowed lawns in the neighborhood. In my late teens/early college years, I worked in Stage Neck Inn which is a five minute walk away. I was married at the Dockside Guest Quarters located at the mouth of the harbor where the river meets the ocean. Two of my three kids were born in York Hospital. Needless to say, my heart, soul and spirit are woven into this area.

I understand the needs of families/groups who are looking to rent a home. I've been renting homes to tourists in York and other towns for nearly twenty years. I've lived abroad three times and travelled to over 60 countries on six continents. I have three young kids and we've stayed in rental properties all over the world and we know how to make a home a great experience for visitors!

I'm happy to help as you plan your trip. I've got 40+ years of experience in the area -- I know all the popular stuff as well as plenty of "off the beaten" path and local spots.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

This home has been catering to summer guests since 1899. The previous owner, Sue, bought the house in the mid-70's and I got to know her and her kids over the years. They operated the home as a popular bed and breakfast (the Inn at Harmon Park) for thirty years. I jumped at the chance to purchase the home after she sent a discreet e-mail to family and friends saying she was looking to sell. During the Fall/Winter of 2015-16 the home was updated with 4 new modern bathrooms (3 of the 7 were already very nice), fresh paint in all the rooms and new furnishings. In 2019, we updated another bathroom and added an outdoor shower.
