Take leisurely walks to Short Sands Beach from this one-bedroom York cottage, a cozy Southern Maine escape with a dog-friendly interior, a lovely front deck, and an ideal location close to shops, eateries, and the Nubble Light.

You'll find this single-level home just north of Cape Neddick, and three miles from the center of downtown York. Walk half a mile south (only eight minutes on foot) to sunbathe and swim at Short Sands Beach, stroll two miles south to check out the surf at Long Sands Beach, and head two miles southeast to admire the iconic Nubble Light at the tip of Cape Neddick. Traveling with kids? Be sure to take them to nearby York Animal Kingdom for rides and zoo animals!

With exposed beam ceilings, an open floor plan, and plentiful seating, this cottage is full of casual charm. Wake up each morning to check the tides on the free WiFi, prepare breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen, and take your dogs for a walk to the nearby lighthouse (please note that a 20 lb., two-dog limit).

Grab your bathing suits, towels, and picnic fixings and walk down to Short Sands Beach for a sun-splashed day of swimming and sandcastle-building. Come home to sip cold drinks on the deck, light the gas grill for a barbecue dinner, and dine on a feast of lobster and haddock. End the evening back inside, where two cable TVs and a DVD player await for fun-filled movie nights.

Come and experience a summer break in one of Maine's most beloved beach towns - book your stay in York today!

Beds uncomfortable but location is great
The location is close to everything but we only stayed one out of 2 nights because we couldn’t handle the beds. The two in the bedroom were so soft you sank in and the two futons were as expected with the bar across the middle.

big mistake
not enough room here. will list a few faults. reserved cottage for one month and only stayed two weeks. needed so much that I didn't complain at the time because I didn't want anyone coming in and out. Mattresses were like sleeping in a hole. Filthy dirty filters on air conditioners. Terrible mold on shower curtain. Dirty shag rugs. Closet doors just leaning on side wall. Kitchen table leg just balancing and fell on my lap. Rose thorns so overgrown on handicap ramp so that I couldn't use my walker. constant traffic just 6 feet from living room window to campground next door. bad smell in cottage. kitchen cluttered with beach chairs and accessories which should have been kept in the shed where we had to carry our trash. floors need washing. did no good to complain to VRBO. talked to many people about being somewhat reimbursed after spending thousands. they gave me $225 back. I'd like VRBO to go and check out this cottage. We are two elderly women that saved for this months vacation and it was wasted. After staying there for 13 days, we couldn't take it anymore.. This is only a partial list.

Sea Rose Cottage in York
We are not usually not complainers but sleep is important and the beds here were not comfortable. Pot holders or oven mitts would have been useful for oven items as would have been instructions about recycling, check out procedures and what to do with used linens.
