Peaceful York Beach Cottage: Private Cul-de-Sac, Nature Views, Minutes to Shore
Welcome to Lobster Cove Cottage, a cozy and charming Maine coastal getaway designed for rest, connection, and easy beach living.
Set at the very end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this cottage offers a rare blend of privacy, safety, and serenity, while still being just minutes from downtown York Harbor and Long Sands Beach. Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend or a relaxed family vacation, this home provides the perfect balance of peaceful retreat and coastal convenience.
Inside, you’ll find all the comforts of home—a full kitchen, Wi-Fi, TV, W/D, and thoughtful touches throughout—making it easy to settle in and truly unwind. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower, fire up the grill, s'mores by the fire pit, or relax on the sunny deck overlooking the large backyard.
The outdoor space is a favorite for both couples and families. Enjoy a spacious, grassy yard with a sand pit and beach toys for kids, or simply soak in the quiet surroundings with a glass of wine as the sun goes down. Many guests comment on the natural beauty and wildlife—it’s not uncommon to spot deer in the yard or wake up to birdsong in what one guest described as an “Audubon paradise.”
Guests consistently describe Lobster Cove Cottage as cozy, romantic, and wonderfully peaceful—a place where you can slow down, reconnect, and experience the quieter side of York Beach, away from traffic and crowds, yet close to everything you want to explore.
Whether you’re walking the harbor, enjoying long days at the beach, or simply savoring quiet mornings and starry nights, Lobster Cove Cottage is the kind of place people return to year after year.
Close to everything and walkable- Long Sands Beach, Nubble Lighthouse, The Central Restaurant and Bar, Village Scoop Ice Cream, Wiggley Bridge, York Hospital, and more.

Sarah responded to all of my inquiries promptly- the property was very clean, backyard spacious for my furry friend and so close to the beach which was a plus ! The cottage is on a dead end street and was quiet and peaceful. We had an amazing stay !

We had such a wonderful stay at the Lobster Cove Cottage! The location is perfect - about a 15 minute walk to the beach. We chose to drive because we have a toddler and it felt easier with all the gear, but we walked down a few times in the evening and it was great! The cottage itself is all you need: clean, comfortable space indoors and a BEAUTIFUL backyard/deck area to relax on after a day at the beach. This is really the ideal house for anyone with young children because once they reach their beach limit, you have a great outdoor space to spend the rest of the day. Sarah, the host, was super communicative and friendly. We are grateful for our time and will definitely be back!

Convenient, Quiet & nice yard for dogs!
This is a pet-friendly residence within a good walk or short drive to Long Sands Beach. We had everything we needed and liked the cleanliness and amenities very much.

A Great Weekend
I was looking for a peaceful getaway for my birthday and I found it in this wonderful cottage. On a dead end road but just minutes away from so much to do. I spent some wonderful mornings with my coffee out in the backyard.

A cozy romantic cottage
Set at the end of a lazy, family safe cul-de-sac minutes from “downtown” York Harbor the cottage has all the conveniences of home (TV/WiFI/Internet, W/D, microwave, full kitchen) with outdoor shower, sunny deck, grill and beach toys. Awaken to an Audubon paradise, we saw three white tail deer in the back yard.

Peace, quiet and a walk to the beach.
Autumn in Maine is beautiful and this property was exactly what we wanted. It was cozy, simple, charming, private and ideal for a quiet weekend away. We easily walked to the beach, dined in the local seafood scene, enjoyed morning coffee on the backyard patio and cooked meals in a well stocked kitchen. Our host was very welcoming and pleasant. Perfect spot for bringing our dogs too! Definitely would go back again. Thank you!

Charming and perfect
Everything about this place is just lovely and fitting for the person looking to be at a home away from home. The location to the beach, the serene setting, even the friendly neighbors make this an ideal location for a getaway. It’s comfortable, clean and incredibly private. Access to great food as well as the “got to get to”destinations in the southern coast of Maine is also a plus! Communication w Sarah is always immediate and responsive as well. Thank you again for being an incredible host for our vacation.

Amazing
It’s my secret getaway! Convenient to everything I want to do and has everything I need to be comfortable w my dog. Sarah’s place in incredibly welcoming and where I’ll be headed back to many more times provided the schedule of a tired teacher! Thank you once again for everything. I don’t want to stay anywhere else.

Family vacation in York Maine
It was perfect for us. My son loved playing catch in the private backyard. We saw deer and many birds back there. Enjoyed lobsters and steak on the grill one night. House is very user friendly. Host is excellent.

2nd visit to Lobster Cove
We just finished a four day holiday at this lovely home. This was our second year there - we came back because we know the home so well, and it’s location so close to the beach. For my wife and I and two adult children it’s perfect: clean, comfortable, well equipped kitchen for our home chefs and an unbelievable deck and backyard. I expect we’ll be going back in 2025.

Perfect weekend in York, ME
The four of us (parents and two adult children) rendezvoused at this Lobster Cove Cottage on Thursday for a truly wonderful weekend: on the beach, exploring Kittery and Portsmouth restaurants and cooking fabulous dinners. (Thanks, Mom!) The cottage was perfect for a family, VERY comfortable, well equipped kitchen, large backyard with table and chairs on a patio (where we had breakfast and dinner) and all SPOTLESS. Sarah was attentive to our needs and questions - perfect host! Hope to be back soon.

Great Stay!
The property was just as described. There’s a large backyard with a new deck. We brought our two dogs and they had the best time running around. It’s quiet because it’s at the end of a cul de sac. If there’s children in your party, they would have plenty of room to play. Inside the house, there’s plenty of space to move around in. The kitchen is well stocked with anything you need. All in all, we would stay here again!

Amazing York cottage
I was the first renter to stay at this beautiful slice of heaven in York village and we could not have had a better time. The house was exactly as it was pictured it was clean it was safe it was on a beautiful dead end street that had no through traffic. It was extremely quiet and peaceful. I would definitely be coming back to this rental the host was amazing to deal with check in was easy. The backyard was big and shaded it was a great place to sit at the end of the day after being at the beach and just relax and listen to the birds it was so private and quiet. The walk to the beach is very easy we would use a wagon that was provided by our host. The walk to the village is a bit further but it's an easy walk if someone is into walking that distance. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone who's interested in staying in a clean, safe, affordable cottage in the York area there is so much to see and do there I will definitely be returning.

Ask About Construction
The house itself is nice, clean, comfortable.
I can't say its within walking distance of the beach (I clocked it at 7/10 of a mile) or anything else.
Disappointing for us was a property across the street was having major work done. So there was heavy equipment and trucks and noise and tar smell. Equipment and trucks blocked access to the driveway. Very unpleasant. Presumably the construction will end someday but was in full swing while we were there (September 2023). Very disappointing.

Great location and perfect home base.
This was a perfect home base for our weekend in York. It’s small but perfectly suitable for our family of 4 plus two dogs. A great backyard, a nice quiet street, and close to so much that York has to offer. We had a couple of “out of anyone’s control” things happen during our stay and the host was responsive and they got taken care of.
Things to know:
We did not have service at the house (Verizon.) This is the case for a lot of York. Once we were connected to the WiFi it wasn’t a problem, but when I first got to the house I couldn’t pull up the email with the check in details with the door code. So I had to drive until I got service, download the instructions, then go back to the house. So save those instructions ahead of time to save yourself the trouble :)
Dogs aren’t allowed on the furniture. Not a huge deal for us, but the kind of thing I appreciate knowing before booking. We would’ve booked anyway and would happily again, but I know that’s not true for everyone.
We’ll look for this place first for any future stays in York.

Excellent house for a family holiday
The house has all that a family of 3 to 6 needs for a relaxing holiday. The house is clean, comfortable and well-equipped for beachgoers, back yard BBQ's and children. The locale is quiet and easy to get around via car whereas many other places near Maine's Highway 1 are in permanent traffic jam! Access to the beach on foot or by car. The owner is very well prepared and maintains excellent, clear and precise communication. Our family spent a memorable holiday and we hope to return.

Peaceful Property
This was our first time to York, and this property was ideal for us and our fur baby! The cottage sits at the end of a quiet street. The instructions for entering the cottage were easy to follow. The owner, Sarah, has stocked the kitchen with utensils, cookware, paper products, and dishes all of which were adequate for our stay. The cottage was very clean and inviting. We had one issue with the kitchen faucet. We alerted Sarah, and she was on it immediately. By day’s end, a new faucet had been installed. I would recommend this property for a quiet stay, close to York and surrounding points of interest.

Lovely cottage
Sarah was a pleasure to rent from. The listing was spot on, she gave helpful and relevant information about the home and area, and the home had everything we needed and then some. We had a wonderful time.
