This was our second time staying here. We truly enjoyed our stay. The location couldn’t be much better and the owners were easy to work with. We’d definitely enjoy staying here again next year if available.

The property was well-stocked and in a nice, quiet neighborhood that was close to town and the Nubble. We enjoyed the yard and back patio and porches! Quaint, but had everything we needed!

Great Location, Spotless Cottage, Excellent Hosts

We spent a few weeks at the cottage and it was absolutely perfect. The location, the home itself, and the outdoor space all exceeded our expectations. Being within walking distance to both Short Sands and Long Sands made it easy to get around, whether we had the car or not. Communication with the owners was smooth and responsive, and the cottage was spotless upon arrival. We truly enjoyed our stay and are already planning to come back next year!

Great place!

We had 3 teens and 2 adults. Location was great, we spent most of our time at the beach. About a .6 mile walk to the Nubble lighthouse which was perfect for a morning walk with a cup of coffee. The house was very well stocked. The only downside was a lack of AC. Fans were in every room, but with the heat wave it was warm!

We’ve stayed in York Beach area before but this cottage was perfect for hanging out with family, either in the main living area, the porch or the lovely back patio. The ground were beautiful. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Area

The area was beautiful and house was perfect for what we needed it for. Didn’t get to enjoy the area as much as we wanted since we were part of a softball tournament. But the over house is very nice and area is just beautiful!

Houston extended family 1st visit to Nubble Light

Booked this for my uncle and his daughter and 2 children ages 11 and 14 for two nights. They loved it, went to Nubble, Short Sands beach, Lobster Cove and a good time was had by all. I'd recommend this cottage it was clean, and location was stellar. Loved the little back patio with its gas fire pit, we made s'mores with the kids...

Last Minute Deal

This was a last minute trip to celebrate the end of summer and my husband's birthday. The house is in a great location, has a lot of character and was very clean. It had everything we needed to make us feel right at home. Great find.
