Perfect place for Service Animals

If you have a licensed service animal this is where you need to stay! Three levels make it easy to keep your dog on ground floor. This makes potty breaks a breeze, esp.at night. Grass in front and along drive make clean up easy. One thing to keep in mind is that we experienced both insects and mice inside. Probably due to the fact that a lot of window screens are missing. Kept my pup entertained catching mice!

Holiday with the family

We have visited York Beach Maine, with our kids, for over 20 years. Now that they are grown, we wanted to find a house that we could all enjoy. (Vs three separate hotel rooms) You could have not asked for a house with a better view. We loved the five rocking chairs facing the ocean. And the family room for watching a movie at the end of the day was perfect.The house was clean and had a happy vibe that was enjoyed by all. Now I can see why there were so many 10 out of 10's given on the reviews.

Peaceful Retreat

We spent the Thanksgiving holiday here and it is truly a special place. Check in and communication with the host was easy. The house is spacious yet cozy. The view cannot be beat. It’s even better in person than in the photos. The kitchen has top notch appliances and is well stocked. Beds were comfy and there’s plenty of space to sit and chat or play w game. Very easy walk to the beach or to the lighthouse. Just so comfortable and peaceful. We can’t wait to come back!

Fabulous views and fabulous house

Everyone loved the house, I’ve rented many houses and this one was by far the best equipped, especially the kitchen. This house was immaculate, the beds comfortable and there were plenty of pillows and linens. We spent most of our time sitting in those rocking chairs and enjoying the view. Cant wait to go again sometime.

Maine getaway with besties

We loved this home! Perfect location to so many authentic Maine experiences- Ogunquit, Kittery, Kennebunk, Bob’s Clam Hut, Lobster Shack, Taylor’s Lobster Company, Nubble Lighthouse etc… So much to see and eat! Colleen’s home is the perfect place to sit at night, make a great meal and enjoy great friendships! The views from the windows were mind blowing! The house was clean and so well equipped. It was a treat to use this home as our homebase.! Colleen was a perfect home host!

Maine Getaway

We used this home as our base camp for multiple weddings that we needed to attend. Even while the weather was less than ideal during our weeks' stay, it was very relaxing sitting by the picture windows looking out at the ocean, regardless of the weather. We had a terrific time.

Wonderful place to spend your vacation!

You absolutely cannot go wrong in deciding to stay here . The house is lovely , comfortable and so calming. It was truly heavenly even in the one rainy day. We actually felt that day was the best, looking out the picture windows at the pouring rain ,distant lighting and the stormy sea. This is the first ever York Beach vacation - we have been coming here for 40 plus years- that we did not hit the beaches1 Even the grandkids preferred just chilling and relaxing at the house. Yes, we did go on walks to down town and the lighthouse and Long Sands, but there is something so relaxing about this house that we loved just sitting in the rockers and reading while enjoying the view. The house is well stocked with everything you need, linens included. Thank you, Colleen, for sharing.

We had a great time on our trip. Views were magnificent. Very nice house. Plenty of room to be with your group when you want and plenty of room to be apart from them when you need a minute or two! I’d come back here in the future and highly recommend it to anyone considering staying here.
