Newly Renovated Easy Walk to Both Beaches /Shopping/Zoo/Amusement Park!

Welcome to Sandy Ridge cottage! We picked this condo because of its location! We listed it after staying in it to make sure it was comfortable and had everything you need to have a good time.

You can walk to Short Sands beach, the cutest little shops, food, drinks and the York Zoo and Amusement Park. You can also walk to Long Sands beach and restaurants or ice cream on Long Sands Road.

You can drive 10 minutes to the Kittery Outlets, 15/20 minutes to great shopping in Portsmouth. There's a movie theater in Wells, Ogunquit is right down the street, and the Ogunquit playhouse is 10 minutes away.

The condo is equipped with central air and heat for those rainy days. Games, books, fully equipped kitchen, gas grill, outdoor patio table and chairs, washer/dryer in the unit and even a little front porch to sit on.

This 2-bedroom, one bathroom condo is everything you need to enjoy a little getaway! There is also a couch in the living room which accommodates sleeping for 1 and off-street parking for two cars directly in front of the condo. We have newly installed an outdoor camera facing the driveway for security purposes only.

Stay with us and enjoy everything York has to offer!

Cute condo in a great location
We had a wonderful time at York Beach and this condo made it easy. Very clean, well stocked and an easy walk to Long Beach which we preferred as less crowded. Also easy to get to grocery store and town for time at the arcade and shops. Owner was easily accessible and responded quickly to questions. Would definitely stay here again when in York!

Comfortable beach getaway
We had a lovely stay. The hosts were quick to respond to inquiries before and during our stay, and the house is a lovely destination. It has the essentials for a beach getaway and more (AC/firepit/outdoor seating). We didn't take advantage of all with a toddler in tow, but it was a nice, comfortable and very clean space for a small group.

Cute place but in need of some finishing touches
My family and in stayed for three nights at this cottage in July. It is a small condo very close to the beach. First the positives… the place is very clean and easily accessible. It is a very close walk to the beach which was nice for our family. The hosts were easy to contact when we needed anything and responded promptly sending a broom and a toaster (both were not there) to the property when we reached out. On the other hand the house itself was lacking in some things that could have made it more enjoyable. Though clean, it would have been nice to have an area rug in the living room and lamps in the living room and bedrooms. The listing seemed to mention that the house could accommodate 5 people but that is not really the case. The couch was small and did not pull out into any sort of a bed. We did not spend any time in the backyard as the tables and chairs were somewhat dirty. I do believe the place is in the process of transferring owners so that may be part of the issues… just learning curves. We love York, however and enjoyed our time at the beach and in town.

Wonderful Weekend
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful duplex. The location is ideal, in between Long & Short Sands, both within walking distance. We saw the most beautiful sunrise at Short Sands. The condo has a great backyard and fire pit. It is complete with all your needs, including laundry detergent, for a fun beach stay. Our only issue was the comfort of the mattress. We prefer a softer mattress so we bought a mattress pad and it made all the difference. We will absolutely stay here again. We come to this area every Memorial Day weekend and have for the past 6 years and this has been our favorite location. Thank you for a great time.

York Vacation
This was a new area for me and I really wanted a cottage with walking distance to the beach. Long Sands is closer and was beautiful each morning at low tide. The cottage was nicely decorated, comfortable beds ..only suggestion is to put mirrors in the bedrooms to help in the getting ready process. Esp for females…🦞

Perfect stay
We wanted a place in York Beach close to (read that as walking distance) to town, Long Sands and Short Sands beaches. We couldn't have asked for better than this property. It was clean, well appointed, comfortable and exactly as described. The Host Lynn was wonderful, with prompt and informative communication and concerned that our trip went well. Should we revisit York (a wonderful place), this would be our go-to place to stay!

Perfect in everyway!
Staying at this perfect cottage was just that! 5 mins from the Nubble Lighthouse, the lovely town of York and 20mins north of Portsmouth NH. The cottage is bigger than the pictures show! High quality sheets, linens, towels, decor, plush rugs! The beds are a dream being brand new! The kitchen is wonderful as it has everything you could possibly need. The TV so nice and big and the heaters works wonderfully (we staying in April and was very chilly with a storm for 2 days). Lynn is a fantastic host to speak and work with and was a phone call away to help with anything we needed. Full size washer/dryer was really helpful for the four of us! I was so blessed to stay at this wonderful location...can't wait to visit again and again! Don't miss the drive from York to Ogunquit on Rt. 1a it is unforgettable! Thank you for the most comfortable and pleasant stay!
