About the host
Hosted by Traci Beane
York Beach has always been one of my favorite places to vacation in the summer. After years of creating memories and discovering my happy place, I began looking for our beach home. When I found "My Place By the Sea", I knew this was our house. From the first moment I walked through the doors, I felt joy, laughter, love and happiness. I imagined many families coming together to enjoy the warm days and cool nights, Maine lobster, shopping, restaurants, taffy and fudge. I imagined the games, the movies, the walks along the beach and the kids at the zoo, amusement park, arcade or bowling alleys. I imagined the drives along the coast to Ogunquit, Kennebunkport, Wells and the rainy days shopping at the Kittery outlets. I hope you will love it as much as I do and be our guests for years to come.
Why they chose this property
This property is perfectly located. It is one block to Short Sands Beach, the shops, restaurants, zoo and amusement park. It is set back yet close to it all. I love a vacation when there's no need to get in the car to go anywhere and something for everyone. Walk around the shops, go to the beach, take the trolley to the other end of the beach, ride a bike, walk to the beautiful Nubble Light House or drive along the coast to Ogunquit, Wells, Kennebunkport.
What makes this property unique
Location is the best! You can have it all from this beach house. It has all the comforts of home at the beach!
