great family holiday getaway

Great property with lots of space for our family of 9 adults & 4 grandchildren to spreadout yet all be together. Very clean, great views, well equipped, & easy to get to, yet very private. Easy check-in & check-out, with Patrick the host being very helpful with the booking, sharing property & area information, beinf available if needed, & making the whole vacation experience very seemless. Not only is York a great ME coastal town, but the properties' location was close by where we also had the opportunity to enjoy Ogunquit & Kennebunkport. Looking forward to staying here again!!

What an amazing place to celebrate my birthday weekend. The minute you walk through the door you are greeted with a beautiful foyer and space to drop your luggage so you can tour the house. No matter where you turn, there are bedrooms that are tastefully decorated, bathrooms attached or close by. There are two sitting rooms, one with a breathtaking view of the ocean in the distance. All this on the entrance level floor! Then you go downstairs that has two bedrooms, bathroom and sitting area with a huge tv. Hiding behind a door we found a speakeasy. Full bar area with ice maker, couches. TV and a large poker table and small tables with a bench seat. Back at the entrance you go up a large spiral staircase and find a huge open area with an amazing gourmet kitchen, a butler pantry, library, two sitting areas and a spectacular view. Down the hall was the master bedroom, four poster king size bed and an enormous bathroom and dressing area with a separate water closet. Beds were all comfortable and linens were first rate. Books in the sitting rooms were a delightful addition. There was more than enough room for our party of 19 women. We hired a chef, that the host recommended, to come and cook for us Saturday night and our food choices were delicious. Any questions that we had during the days leading to our event, and during our stay were promptly answered by our host. This home had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Tina, January, 2026

A home for respite

We retreated to this wonderful home for a few days with family. There is a gathering or sitting area for every need - the subdued library, the plant room, group meals in the dining room or deck, the observatory, a media area, the main bedroom with spa - and always a door to the outside and the ocean. Patrick is the best host we have ever encountered, thoughtful, responsive and caring.

Relaxing Getaway

This home served as a wonderful getaway for our family during this unusual COVID summer. It's roomy, with nice indoor and outdoor spaces, has a nice tennis court which sealed the deal for us, is within 10-15 minutes walk of two casual lobster restaurants, less than 10 minutes walk from a small sandy public beach and a 5 minute walk to a beautiful private rock beach. The house had everything we needed, and Nancy and Dave were easy to work with and very responsive. Just what the doctor ordered!

Loved staying here

Wow! We had a marvelous week at the Cottage. Nancy and David met us at the porte cochere and gave us a detailed history of the property, as well as a tour of the house. It’s much larger than we expected, and very spacious, so that everyone had their own private space. We ate on the beautiful deck overlooking the ocean most nights, and watched the stars ⭐️ come out. This morning, we woke at 6 am to watch the sun rise over the ocean... incredible. We were close to beaches, hiking, kayaking, the art museum in Ogunquit, restaurants... something for everyone. We went running along country roads, played tennis 🎾, bocce, and even watched a movie in the downstairs theater. We hope to stay here again.

Great for family retreats

This is a beautiful home with spectacular views. The home changed hands to new owners five days before we arrived in June and based on our experience with them, they were very responsive. Would want to confirm a couple things we discussed with the new owners: 1. Because the downstairs bedrooms are not air conditioned, ceiling fans would be huge help on warm days 2. Blinds have been installed in the room windows. It gets light there early Given new owners will be freshening select areas, having an updated instruction manual for home would be helpful. We would definitely stay there again!

Family getaway

We had a wonderful family stay at the Cottage. Nancy and Dave were great hosts- they gave a very detailed tour of the home so we knew where everything was and offered advice for places to eat and things to do. They live next door to the property so are very responsive to questions/concerns. The location was great. Close to many activities - you can walk to the beach and to town. Short drive to Ogunquit. Portland is approximately 40 minutes away and Salem is about an hour. Tennis court was nice to have on site. There are plenty of outdoor decks, fire pit and a private beach ( the beach is rocky but beautiful). The gardens are lovely. Keep in mind that the home does have a fair amount of steps which could be difficult with children and older adults. There is also no bathroom with a shower for two of the bedrooms. There is an outdoor shower. One big plus for us was that dogs were allowed. Everyone had plenty of space to stretch out to do things as a family or by themselves which made for a relaxing stay.

Perfect for a large group

My family of 6 adults and 1 child(4 years old)had a wonderful week in Ogunquit and York. The house has 4 large, comfortable bedrooms and 2 small bedrooms(which we didn’t use). The en-suite bathrooms need to be updated. The large, open family room/kitchen area is ideal for relaxing and preparing food. We went out to dinner every night, but the appliances, cookware etc. were certainly in abundance. There are many outdoor spaces to sit and eat but most of them are worn and not comfortable. The grounds are spectacular and the tennis court was great! It is a short walk to Cape Neddick beach, but we spent most of our beach days at Ogunquit Beach. We were lucky that we had beautiful weather but the one day that it poured we hung out at the house and played games, read and did puzzles. It is extremely comfortable for that. There is one tv in the family room, but it needs to be updated. The house was just sold a month ago and Nathan, the new owner was wonderful. He answered my questions promptly and communicated that certain areas will be updated in the off season. We look forward to staying in this beautiful spacious house next summer!

Lovely Property with Private Space for All!

We had a great time and a beautiful weekend of fall weather for our family gathering. Accommodations are comfortable and there is plenty of space for everyone to find their niche. The beds and linens are very comfortable, it's quiet and the area is beautiful. We loved being able to walk to the beach area, sit and stare out at the water, contemplating all of our life choices. ;) We found the kitchen well equipped minus a supply of ice (later found in the pantry fridge unit). If you have a person in your party that has difficulty with stairs, please be advised the general living area of the home is on the 2nd level with no elevator. We enjoyed our stay and would book again!
