About this property

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.

    Pets welcome - fees apply. 2 Pack N Play's and a high chair available. Wagon for walking to the beach. Beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, and beach cruiser bike available for use.
