The Cottage at Long Sands
Swim, windsurf, and sunbathe all summer long at this York cottage - a family-friendly Maine escape with a private patio and an unbeatable location about a block from Long Sands Beach!
The perfect retreat for a family or a group of couples, this quaint, two-story cottage situates you within walking distance of the san and waves. Take sunrise walks along the shoreline toward the Nubble Light to the north, watch the boats come and go from York Harbor two miles south, and sample the darling eateries in the York Historic District one mile west.
Greet the morning sun in the remodeled living space, where you’ll find free WiFi, window air-conditioning units (in the living room and three bedrooms), and a country kitchen with double ovens to assist with breakfast. In the summer, grab the beach chairs and a towel from the washer/dryer on your way out the door, and return home for lunch on the gas grill (available seasonally), a board game on the patio, and a movie or two in the living room on the cable TV.

About the area
York Beach, Maine, is a quintessential New England coastal destination that offers a charming blend of sandy beaches, family-friendly attractions, and a touch of history. This picturesque locale is perfect for those looking to unwind by the sea, indulge in fresh seafood, and explore the natural beauty of Maine's rugged coastline.
The heart of York Beach is Short Sands Beach, a sheltered cove that's ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and beachcombing. The soft sand and gentle waves make it a favorite spot for families, while the nearby Ellis Park provides a grassy area for picnics and games. Just a short drive away, Long Sands Beach offers a more expansive stretch of sand, popular with surfers and beachgoers looking for more room to spread out.
York's Wild Kingdom, located right in York Beach, is a unique zoo and amusement park that delights visitors of all ages. With a variety of animals, rides, and games, it's a perfect place to spend a fun-filled day with the family. The park's butterfly kingdom and petting zoo are particularly enchanting for younger guests.
For those interested in history, the Cape Neddick "Nubble" Lighthouse is an iconic landmark that shouldn't be missed. Perched on a rocky island just off the coast, the lighthouse is one of the most photographed in the world and offers stunning views, especially at sunset. While the island itself is not accessible to the public, visitors can get an excellent view from Sohier Park, which also has a gift shop and telescopes for a closer look.
York Beach also serves as a gateway to the many outdoor activities that Maine is known for. Kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing are popular pastimes, and the nearby York Harbor and Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge provide serene settings for nature walks and bird watching.
The town itself is dotted with quaint shops, art galleries, and restaurants where you can savor fresh lobster rolls, creamy clam chowder, and other New England specialties. The Goldenrod, a local institution since 1896, is famous for its saltwater taffy, made on-site and a must-try for those with a sweet tooth.
In essence, York Beach offers a delightful mix of seaside relaxation, family entertainment, and a taste of Maine's coastal charm. It's a place where memories are made, whether you're building sandcastles on the beach, exploring the local wildlife, or simply enjoying the laid-back rhythm of life by the ocean.
