Our group could not get over the attention to detail and the extra care the owners have taken to make our stay exceptional. Gorgeous old home in a great location.

Our crew of 21 (8 adults and 13 kids) have been coming to York for 4 years. This year we needed to find a bigger space and this house couldn’t have been more perfect for our FRamily. Before I get to the details of the home itself, I have to take a moment to commend Mark on being such an amazing host! He truly went above and beyond to make our week special. The house is perfect for large groups. We have 4 separate families in our group so having the space to spread out is nice- but also come together for meals, movies, games, hangouts, etc is awesome. We already booked to come back next summer- can’t wait to continue making memories at this beautiful home.

Our extended family spanning three generations thoroughly enjoyed the annual reunion. A major contributing factor was Mark's warm and generous hospitality. From prebooking to throughout our weeklong stay, he was kind, responsive and more than accommodating. The home itself met our needs and preferences so well. We especially appreciated that we could convene as a group in numerous parts of the house, but also enjoy privacy and quiet moments when desired.Of all the vacation home rentals we've been in over the years, the Whiting Cottage's kitchen was the most well stocked we've seen. The gift basket and fresh flowers were welcoming bonuses greeting us upon arrival. A culinary highlight of the week was the lobster meal including lobster bisque from Southern Maine Lobster Company. The York location was perfectly suited for visiting Coastal Maine.Thank you, Kinton family, for sharing your amazingly lovely home. We cherish the wonderful memories that were created during our stay.

It is usually location .. location … location … but this host and home are the best. To say the house is a “rambler” understates it. This is a large beautifully detailed house. We were a 50th Reunion of men from U Maine. Playing golf, cook outs and stories. The house: A main kitchen … which become the gathering spot however several rooms have mini kitchenettes. If someone wants some privacy… you have it. Mark, our host and his family goes above and beyond. From lobster recommendations (they are so fresh !!!!). To making sure every need was met. The location is central to everything. If I could give SIX stars I would gladly do so. Mark many thanks!! OFS U Maine 1975

This property was even better than we imagined! It was so clean, the owners were amazing, very communicative and helpful:) We all had our own space so we could take private moments as well as bond and congregate in the main living room/kitchen/dining areas/porches etc. The house is also very conveniently located. We had such a blast that we all agreed we may have to stay here again soon:)

Gathered my large group together for a weekend, and was surprised by the accommodations. Mark met me onsight to show me the property, and everything about it. Nice personalized experience with plenty of space for everyone to stay. High attention to detail throughout the house. Hard to find a large enough place for my group but this had the room for us. If for some reason I have a need for that style weekend again up here, I'll look to this property first.

The property did not disappoint! It exceeded our hopes and expectations! The host was no small part of that achievement! The house accommodated our group of 13 without even stretching its capacities! We absolutely LOVED our stay, even when it rained most of the day on the Saturday of our getaway weekend. We would come back in an instant, and extend our enjoyment of the house, the property, the easy walk to the Cliff Walk along the Atlantic Coast of Maine, the York shops, the easy access to Outlet stores in Kittery and Freeport! We like to cook, and the kitchen was well-equipped to comfortably support our group, and beyond! Our hosts were beyond welcoming, accommodating, and generous!

This property is amazing! It is way bigger in person and accommodates large groups or even smaller groups who each want their own bedroom and bathroom. The house is a quick walk to the gorgeous Cliff Walk. We spent Saturday in Portsmouth for a girls shopping weekend York was the perfect place to call home for a few days. Highly recommend!
