Don't worry about the A/C: it was very hot and humid when we arrived but the mini split cooled everything down quickly. We only used one bedroom, so can't comment on the comfort of the others. Location is terrific. Owners were very responsive, communicative and helpful

We thought the house was adorable on-line and loved it even more on arrival. It’s a wonderful, open and light space, nicely decorated, and an easy walk to the beach. The house is very close to neighboring houses, but somehow still feels private and the neighbors were very nice and helpful. Great overall location and week for our family.

We have been vacationing in Southern Maine for many many years, we have rented a few homes in the area over the years and this rental was better than most. The location is wonderful, they state 5 minute walk to beach, but it doesn't feel more than 1 or 2 minutes, perfect location on Long Sands, close to the bathroom and multiple eating and shopping locations. The size and look of the house matched the online description and pictures so we were very happy to get what we paid for. There is plenty of room, no one felt on top of each other after a day at the beach. The outdoor shower is a great touch to rinse the sand after a beach day and we were very pleased there was a wagon at the property to cart all our stuff on the walk to the beach. Communication with the owners was great, they were available to us if needed and they were so sweet to send information on York/York area dining and activities prior to our trip. We will definitely be looking to rent this property again!

Cottage was very efficient. Nicely decorated. Very homey. Great neighbors! Easy access to Long Sands. Outdoor shower was a bonus! We made the parking work. Quiet street!!
4.9
The property location was great! The owners are very responsive. The outdoor shower was great especially after a day at the beach. The no towels or bed sheets thing was a bummer but okay if it reduces the rent price:) The biggest challenge was that all of the curtains in the bedrooms were white. This didn't keep out any light like early morning sun or neighbor's who keep their lights on all night. There is a skylight right over the bunk bed so my young one woke up with the roosters.

Just what we needed
The house was perfectly comfortable for our family of four — charming set-up, extremely well-maintained, and great location. We were able to enjoy time with extended family as well as explore southern Maine. We had easy access to the beach in York, and traveled to Ogunquit, Wells, Portland, and Portsmouth NH.

Great Location and Hosts!
Bill and Beth were overly communicative and helpful in the booking process and beyond. Location was great and quiet, perfect for our families to take a break and relax from days at the beach. Loved the outdoor shower feature and line of sight in the cottage to be preparing dinner and seeing the kids play in the living room.

Clean and Comfortable
This was our second year staying at Bill and Beth’s cottage and just like last year it was perfect! Super clean, super comfortable and walking distance to the beach and corner store. My family and I had the best time and we are so grateful to have found such a nice place to stay so close to long sands. Thanks for the great memories Bill and Beth!

I have been going to York my whole life and this was by far the best place we have stayed! My kids (7 and 10 years old) also agree. 920 square feet doesn't sound big, but when you enter the house feels so much larger with the high living room ceilings and loft space. The bunkroom was huge and made my kids happy, and the other 2 bedrooms were also good sizes with closets and dressers. The bathroom was perfect size, great big kitchen with everything you could need (although I didn't cook), and the fact that the house has AC is amazing! My kids were worried about the walk as we have stayed closer previously, but they quickly got over it due to how nice the house was. There was a wagon to transport our stuff to the beach which was great. The road is rocky, but no more so than many of the beach back roads. It feels so secluded even though so close to the beach. We can't wait to stay again and definitely a 5 out of 5!

My husband and I enjoyed a lovely week in this vacation home. Communication with Bill and Beth was quite easy, as responses from them were very prompt. We found the house to be very clean, bright, and comfortable. The bathroom is on the small side, but clean and well-supplied, including disinfectant cleaning wipes. My husband enjoyed the outdoor shower several times upon returning from the beach. We cooked meals every day, and found the spacious kitchen to be very well-equipped, although there is no dishwasher. We were lucky enough to have some beautiful beach weather, and the walk to Long Sands Beach was only 7-8 minutes while pulling the beach wagon. Overall, we were very happy and would not hesitate to rent here again.

This cottage was wonderful. Just a 5 minute easy walk to long sands beach right near the public restrooms! Such an important thing if you have small children with you that need to use it often.
Bill and Beth were great. They welcomed us on arrival and showed us around and answered any questions we had.
Our favorite things about the cottage was how clean and beautiful the inside was, the outdoor shower with hot and cold water, the wagon and beach toys our children could use. They even have beach chair you can barrow if you don’t want to bring your own.
I recommend bringing yourself some paper plates, like we did. There is no dishwasher so you would have to hand wash your dishes... I don’t know about you but I’m on vacation and I don’t want to do extra chores ;)
This place is a 10 out of 10. Can’t wait to go back!

We had seven people staying for three days (all of which were rainy and cold). We enjoyed the family time together and spent time on the beach between periods of rain. It was just my husband and I the last three days. Overall, the cottage was comfortable to be in, beds were comfortable. The owners were very nice and responded quickly to any needs. We will likely stay here again.

Super cute and close enough to beach to walk. The bed was very comfortable.
These is no washing machine so pack enough clothes (and extras because the beach!). There's a clothesline though to hang dry wet swimsuits and an outdoor shower.

We had such a wonderful stay at the cottage. It is such a fantastic location with a short walk to the beach. At night you can hear the waves. The cottage was a perfect fit for our family, and well laid out. Bill and Beth were excellent hosts, and were able to accommodate our requests. Thank you for sharing your adorable cottage!

Blueberry Cottage was perfect place for a get-away
A group of five girl friends and I had booked a place for a long overdue girls get-away. Several days prior to our departure date one of the girls had a family medical issue so our group decided to postpone our trip until 2021. Long story short a couple of us decided to still go and I booked the Blueberry cottage. Booking and check in could not have been any easier! The owners Bill and Beth were great to work with.
Location: Perfect! Cottage is a couple blocks from Long Sands beach, about a 7 minute walk.
Comfort: Cottage was extremely clean. Decor was beachy, modern rustic, with a unique homey feel. Beds were super comfortable (at night we could hear the beach through the open windows). The sofa was upgraded from the rattan one in the pics, to a comfy upholstered one, the perfect spot to relax with a glass of wine. We didn't cook however the kitchen seemed to be well stocked.
The only changes I would recommend is upgrading the 4 cup coffee pot to a 12-cup-er. Adding a few baking/cookie sheets to heat up left overs, and including some saran wrap, tin foil and small plastic bags for snacks.
Overall, this place is a 10 out of 10 and we would definitely book it again. Thanks Bill and Beth.

A perfect family getaway
We had a great weekend at Bill and Beth’s cottage with our 3 young children. Bill called to make sure we were settled and was responsive when there was an issue with the lockbox code.
The house is walking distance to a great part of Long sands beach. It is very well maintained with great amenities. Very family friendly. The neighbors are very close but everyone was nice and there were no issues. One thing I mentioned to the owners which I think would have been helpful to know is that there are no room darkening shades in the bedrooms. This isn’t necessarily a negative thing but would be very useful to have with young children who like to rise with the sun. The outdoor shower was amazing as well. We would definitely book this place again with our family.

A perfect home away from home
My family and I can’t thank Bill and Beth enough for the amazing home we were able to stay in while visiting long sands beach! During the whole process of booking the communication was outstanding, the home was extremely clean and tidy with plenty of room! We had 4 adults and we had more than enough room. The living room and kitchen are huge! And bedrooms were perfect size. The outdoor shower and the beach wagon were a big bonus. I highly recommend staying here as I have rented homes in the past, and this one by far was the absolute best. We look forward to making this a yearly tradition! (Triple bonus points, this home is within walking distance to the center of Long Sands Beach)

Sun, sand, relax !
Very clean, well appointed cottage. Short walk to beautiful Long Sands Beach. Our third summer here and never disappointed. Bill and Beth are excellent hosts and always check in on day of arrival to make sure all is well. Always very responsive. Neighbors are friendly and very considerate.
We love the beach but hiking, biking, shopping, historical sites all nearby. Many good restaurants in the area.
Appreciated so much more this crazy year !

Perfect cottage for family of 5!
We had an amazing long weekend with our family of 5 at Bill & Beth’s cottage! The house was very clean, comfortable, and relaxing and even our 3 young kids were able to move around freely and comfortably. It was a quick and easy walk to the beach and we were able to utilize the beach buggy that was left at the house. Bill and Beth were very easy to communicate with before, during, and even after our stay! Our family really enjoyed our mini vacation and we hope to come back again in the near future!
