We had an amazing stay in York! The house was comfortable for our family of 5. We walked to the beach and downtown easily with our beach gear, sometimes a couple times a day. My daughters and I left from the house and ran a 3.4 mile loop to the Nubble Lighthouse and back, so many beautiful views! We also rode our bikes the same loop to see the area at sunset and had ice cream at Dunne’s before heading back. We found a great coffee place to walk to, and an ice cream place (in Wells) that serves up ice cream FLIGHTS! The deck was a nice bonus to be able to enjoy the nice weather we had. The beds were comfortable, as were the couches in the living room. Owner very responsive to questions.
