This house has the most fabulous location. Our spacious sun porch overlooking peaceful York Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean offers an ideal spot for a leisurely meal or to linger and watch the yachts and sailboats come and go. Lush lawn and gardens sloping down to the water’s edge provide a tranquil setting for a good book or a refreshing drink, or simply lean back in the Adirondack chairs and let the sea breezes ease your mind. Take a walk on our deep water pier for an even closer look at the harbor activity. The view of the sunset from the pier’s edge is unforgettable. On the other side, you’ll discover York Harbor Beach just steps away from our front door (500ft to be exact), perfect for swimming, sunbathing and beach combing. The Cliff Path wanders atop rocky ledges and offers many great vistas of the crashing ocean waves below. And don't forget the Harbor Walk which meanders along York Harbor and the York River. Two great restaurants are within a 5-minute walk of the house. The location is fabulous. This massive turn-of-the-century Victorian estate has approx. 10,000 square feet of living space. There are 9 bedrooms, 7 baths and laundry facilities. We provide Adirondack chairs, beach chairs, beach towels, and shower products to cover everyone in your group. There is a garage where you can store your bikes, paddle boards, etc. All rooms have fast WIFI and A/C. Large dining room table. Extra large kitchen plus a kitchenette / sitting room with total of 3 refrigerators! Additional rooms were opened up for the 2022 season so reviews prior to 2022 don't reflect the enlarged offering. New, high-quality AC units were added to all bedrooms in 2024. The yard space is very versatile and enjoyable. Past guests have set up an inflatable pool for kids, a canopy for shade, and of course yard games. The harbor is fun for fishing, paddle boards, kayaks, etc. but bring some water shoes (the harbor is muddy)! There is a grill ready for you, with extra propane tanks. There are a few things you should know. The decor of the house is older. There is a long-term tenant who lives in a basement apartment; both spaces are secure from one another with separate entrances. The dock is utilized by about 10 boats; it is fully booked but sometimes a visiting boat can be accommodated. There is separate parking on the far side of the house for dock members. There is a security camera on the exterior of the house. The pool that you might notice in satellite photos belongs to a condo association and unfortunately is not open to the public. Feel free to ask questions about any of this. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Kitchenette - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 9 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Day bed - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 7 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Sledding nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 10,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Smart TV, fireplace, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33560000/33551200/33551138/3c34d17e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gorgeous home: walk to beach, harbor, cliff walk, wiggly bridge, dining etc. York Harbor - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 142 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=33551138&PinnedHotelID=33551138&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34010000/34009500/34009420/32010573.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Classic Maine Cottage short walk to beach, harbor, trails, park & village.

We stayed with our whole family and had an incredible week. Beautiful decor inside and out. Plenty of space for all the adults and children. Bathrooms everywhere but the first floor. We were pleasantly surprised with how many people could shower at once and still have hot water and great water pressure. The house has a beautiful master suite with a hot tub and a laundry room. All rooms has gorgeous views. We enjoyed our nights on the porch and the pier. Walking distance to a small semi private beach and a short drive to downtown York. There was a problem with the cable at one point which the owner addressed quickly. Didn’t affect our trip because we weren’t there to watch TV. Grandpa missed the Patriots pre season opener but he’ll get over it :-). Overall an amazing rental and perfect spot. Looking forward to returning again. ##### Peter M.

We had a fantastic time staying at this beautiful home. The owner was so accommodating with my specific requests. I appreciated his quick follow up on any text I sent! This was my wedding week, and even used the house for gorgeous getting ready photos inside and first look pictures out on the lawn. So happy with how they turned out. Everything is described so accurately in the listing. Did I mention there are 3 coffee makers? We had 2 working full-time each morning! My brother in law took full advantage of the chef's kitchen and cooked up many meals for the whole family. So glad there were 3 fridges for all the food he bought! One of the main reasons I chose this home was for the main floor bedroom and bathroom for my Dad as his balance isn't the best and didn't want him navigating steep stairs. The bathroom on the main floor left us wishing the old style tiny walk in tub/shower combo had been replaced with a new shower with no tub. Every other shower in the house was great. ##### Rebecca B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy S., Chappaqua New York Aug 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome Location This house was great for our large family ages range from 2 years old to 70. The house was very comfortable and spacious it was an Inn so each room had its own bath and most rooms were very roomy. The kitchen was well equipped to the point of needing organization and probably removing some items but rather have more than too little. The beds were comfortable and the a/c worked but window units were noisy. The linens including pillows can use some updating. The photos of house are accurate. It’s a step back in time regarding decorating and some fixtures. The house was very clean so that takes precedence over decor in my opinion. The house was very well equipped with towels for beach and bath toiletries blankets beach chairs and a beach wagon. Location was so fantastic we were able to walk to beach and local restaurant. We fished off the wonderful dock! All appliances worked great we made lobster and barbecued. I highly recommend this house if you don’t mind that the furniture-decorating and bath/kitchen needs updating. We will go back if we can gather our crew together again. ##### Nancy S. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Heather M., West Hartford Sep 11, 2015 #### Completlely lovely but not very private This is a beautiful property in a stunning location. Lovely and generous owners. Breathtaking views, convenient location, very comfortable accommodations. We had a wonderful stay but were a little surprised with how public and shared the property is. There is a "Harborside" sign on the exterior of the home that gives the impression it is open to the public so we had many unexpected visitors - more than one who walked right into the home. An easy fix would be removal of the signage. Also the dock leads to a marina with associated shared parking and foot traffic. The marina docked a 100' sailboat which promoted sailimg excursions to the public leading to even more foot traffic. There is a public walkway that borders the back yard which also gets quite a bit of foot traffic. Lastly the home is closed off in part and houses an owner-occupied office and residence so you are essentially sharing the home with separate entrances. None of this was a problem, and we had a great time, but just not what we expected and definitely not what I would call private, so if that is what you are looking for, it's worth noting.

The beds were comfortable and the water in the showers was hot.The main kitchen was so large it took us a couple of days to remember where dishes, pots and pans, silverware, utensils, etc. were.The 3 refrigerators offered ample storage space for our perishables and the huge laundry room was fully equipped with not only a washer and dryer, but several large clothes racks, an ironing board and an iron.There were plenty of rooms downstairs to spread out to do puzzles, play games, read and just sit around.There was a bedroom down stairs that opened onto the porch.This was perfect for a family member who has trouble with mobility.Outside there is a porch, a large lawn, a pier and York Harbor Beach. The neighborhood is quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Long Sands and Short Sands. There were a few negatives.We had a problem finding a sharp knife to pare vegetables and the cupboard and closet doors tended to stick. The bureau in my room was missing nobs, which prevented me from opening most of the draws and the plug in my sink was broken.However, all the positives outweighed every single negative. Nathan, the property manager, was very responsive.He answered all the questions I texted him immediately. ##### Joanne E.

The owners responded quickly to any questions and the house itself was interesting - bathrooms and bedrooms were a great size and everything was clean, impressive especially since this is an older house. The location is awesome, with just a very short (2 minute) walk to the beach. The beach itself was great though there isn't a ton of space at high tide. However, it was much warmer than we expected and the waves were perfect for the kids (ages 9 months-6 years) and adults. A few things about the house: - the kitchen is tiny. We saw this in the reviews but didn't realize just how tiny it was. There is almost no counter space and very little cabinet space. We had to clear off a bookshelf next to the kitchen to store food. The fridge also isn't very big. We were 10 people (6 adults and 4 children) and we had to be careful about how much food we had. We also knew the kitchen wasn't going to be huge so we just planned a few simple meals (grilling, etc.) but even for that, the kitchen was very tight. - there is very little in terms of utensils in the kitchen and no condiments or spices. We did get a note saying to bring our favorite condiments but we rent houses a few times a year and have never stayed in one where there was literally nothing, not even sugar or some leftover spices from past guests. - there is no bathroom on the first floor. This is not so much an issue for most adults but with little kids, it's something to keep in mind. - the house was the right size for us but it would be difficult to fit in more than another 2 adults (or potentially a few more children). There is no good common space besides in the kitchen, though that space is amazing with the breeze and the views. However, you can only comfortably fit about 12 people in there, maybe a few more for socializing but definitely not more than that for a shared meal. There is technically a room on the first floor that is a sitting room but it is very dark and just not pleasant to spend time in. Also note that the TV is on top of the fridge in the kitchen - the angle is fine for watching but it's just a little high up. ##### Maja C.

Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and places to hang out. The views were fantastic and there was so much to do, as the house was in a great location! It was very clean, and having basic toiletries provided was quite nice. Nathan was very helpful with questions and concerns. Unfortunately, we had to wash a lot of dishes by hand since the dishwasher broke the first night we were there, but we survived. :) Thank goodness there was a second one, but that was a bit of a pain. The only thing we wished was different was the configuration/size of the deck. It was a bit small for all to gather on. Again, we survived and had a great time! :) I would definitely recommend checking this place out! ##### Monica F. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John O. Jun 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Maine Family Vacation Our family had a great time. Our (adult) children and their children loved the house and the location. As the property description states... we were approx. 500' from York Harbor beach and it was so convenient for visiting/ using multiple times of the day. The house is older, with a lot of charm and our daughter in law (a great baker/cook) thought the kitchen was as well stocked as her own kitchen. Great spaces in the house for multiple activities. We had a great time and will definitely consider a return visit. ##### John O. Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### susan b.
