The property is amazing-like a home away from home. The 5 minute walk to the beach is ideal. We like being on the quieter end of Long Sands. The grill, table and chairs on the patio make it easy to enjoy the outdoors. You can hear the ocean outside. The cottage is very comfortable and enjoyable.

I rented this cabin for my sister and our kids. It was so cozy and the perfect place to relax between our day adventures at the beach,dinner, and the wiggly bridge. They have a ton of books, games, outdoor space as well as outdoor games and beach gear! The information binder is the cutest but also so informative for local attractions. We look forward to coming back.

We loved our stay at this beautifully renovated cottage. Carrie has thought of everything you could need! It was so nice to have beach chairs, toys, and games to borrow and not worry about bringing them from home. Carrie helped us find a kid friendly restaurant our first night and was pleasantly accessible throughout our trip. We highly recommend staying here and hope to again next year!

A sweet place full of perfect touches. Minor glitches are inevitable anywhere but the host is responsive and respectful. A rainy weekend was made enjoyable in large part because of the warmth and comfort of this cottage. Will happily recommend.

This was our second time renting this cozy cottage. We love the quiet neighborhood and the quick (under 5 minutes) walk to Long Sands beach. The cottage is neat and clean with a deck and grill, so meals were a snap. The owners are very thoughtful and responsive if anything comes up. We look forward to returning next year.

We loved our stay in York. My family lives nearby, but I haven’t stayed in a cabin in York since my childhood. The cabin was clean, the kitchen well stocked, and the back deck was great! My only issue, which was my fault, was that I didn’t realize there was no washer/dryer. Looking back I see it wasn’t listed in amenities. I would book this place again, just pack differently next time to avoid three trips to a laundromat.

This was our second time staying at this property and it is perfect for our family of 4. We enjoyed the deck and outdoor shower, and the size of the property was the right size for us. The best part is the location to the beach! We walked to the beach everyday as well as some local restaurants and loved not having to get in the car. We will absolutely rent again!

Excellent location, beautifully decorated.

Excellent location, beautifully decorated.

Stayed for a week in early August. Lots to love: bright living room with skylights, well equipped kitchen, nice deck with new grill, and an easy 5 minute walk to the beach (you can hear the waves on a quiet night from the deck). However what really made the place shine were all of the little touches inside. So tastefully done. Clean, quiet, and great response times from the owner. It is small as is customary of a cottage in this area, but as long as you don’t need heaps of space, it’s a great find and was perfect for our family of 3. We had a fantastic week, definitely will keep in mind for the future!
