Further details for this holiday cottage rental in York Harbor, USA

Harbor Beach declared 'local treasure'!!: The July 2008 issue of Down East Magazine listed Harbor Beach as a 'local treasure,' and one of a dozen 'hidden beaches' in the state of Maine. The magazine highlights the secret pleasures of this special place and correctly notes that 'there's a lot to gawk at, and a lot to do.' The only problem is the lack of parking, says Down East, but it won't be a problem for you, since it is only a few minutes walk to this beautiful, 'hidden' spot from your private cottage!! This is the beach that the locals use. It is not unusual to have the beach entirely to yourself for an early morning walk with coffee or a late evening stroll.

Other Activities: historic buildings

Wonderful, Comfortable Cottage

roadrunner and rattler San Antonio, TX
Review Submitted: July 18, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our family thoroughly enjoyed a week's stay. The location is excellent: very short walk and you are on the beach; you are on a quiet side street (we had friends that rented a house very close to this cottage and complained about the noise, but you don't have to worry about that here!); near many of the local attractions (but not in the middle of a busy tourist strip). Our two children (10 and 13) enjoyed playing in the outdoor area. We would definitely recommend this location, whether you are looking for a comfortable place to sit back and take it easy for a week or if you are wanting to enjoy meaning of the sites Maine has to offer. We would definitely stay here again.
Owner's Response: We will do our best to have many more happy renters like this in the future! Join us!

Maine at its best

Whalers UK
Review Submitted: August 31, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This was our first trip to the USA and our hosts made sure it was a fantastic experience. The Cottage is very comfortable and located a few minutes walk from the best beach in The Yorks. Although it is close to Route 1A you are not troubled by road traffic noise. Our favourite experience was whale watching from Kennebunkport, although our 12 and 13 year old children still enjoyed days on the beach. The Bagel Basket and the Roast and Crumb are great for breakfast. The York Harbor Inn does excellent evening meals.
Owner's Response: Always nice to hear back from happy renters! We have been graced with wonderful families from Canada, Denmark and the UK this summer and we hope to have more visitors from these and many other countries in the future.

Review Submitted: August 17, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We just returned from our first family vacation! Barry and Kim were amazing hosts! The beach was about a 5 minute walk and a beautiful spot to spend with your family! The cottage was immaculate and the beds were very comfortable! The location, cottage, beach, and people were wonderful. What a great place to spend our first family vacation! A definite slice of heaven! I would recommend this to friends and would love to spend another vacation there!
