Perfect York location. The apartment was very well equipped, clean and comfortable. The location was fabulous for the beach, walking and biking too. I highly recommend this VRBO.
We loved our time here! Simple home without the bells and whistles but excellent location with lots to do nearby. Plus we woke up by the ocean everyday!

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Fall is a very special time to visit York. Thanks for staying with ups and hope to see you in the future.
The rental was perfect for me as it was conveniently located next to the beach and near a good restaurant and also a grocery. The bed was comfortable, the rooms seem recently remodeled, it had every amenity that I had need of. It’s a great choice for a couples getaway, or in my case, a personal retreat.

Thanks Marty. It was our pleasure. So glad you enjoyed your weekend getaway.
The property was the perfect location for a long weekend in York Beach. The hosts were communicative and friendly and the apartment is exactly as pictured. I’d happily come back for a return trip to York!
Our host was friendly but respected our privacy. The cottage was immaculate and cozy. The location was close enough to the beach as well as local restaurants.
We enjoyed our stay immensely and hated to leave!

Thanks for your kind words. Leaving the beach is always difficult! Looking forward to seeing you again next summer!
We stayed on Long Sands Beach for a week but I wish it had been longer. I started every morning having my coffee while I walked the beach. There were some nice restaurants close by. In addition, we walked to Fox's near the lighthouse for great lobster. And another night, we walked to Short Sands for ice cream. It is the best of both worlds-- a large quiet family friendly beach with busier places within a mile or so walk.

We really enjoyed our week here! Just steps to the beach and also an easy drive to Portland and Massachusetts. I had some questions before we went and Julie was super prompt and friendly in responding through the VRBO messaging system. Looking forward to coming back one day!

Thank you Jennifer! So happy you enjoyed your stay and took advantage of all this area has to offer.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway. The apartment was very clean and tastefully decorated with all the amenities you could want. An easy, short walk across the street to the lovely beach. Restaurant and general store also within walking distance. We'd love to go back!

VERY clean, great apartment! Fully stocked kitchen. Good size rooms! Nice yard and right on beach. Julie was great communicating with when making reservation. Thank you very much and would love to stay again!
I really enjoyed this spot. Great low key spot. Love that there was a place around the corner to cover any extra needs… sandwiches and ice cream plus. Surprise Bonfire with a cookout and band for the Holiday was a huge bonus. Hostess was lovely.

Plenty of space for two adults. Directly across from the beach in a great location. Mattress was average and not uncomfortable. Great water pressure. Beautiful back yard with a covered area to sit/grill.
