About this property

Oceanfront Cottage on Long Sands Beach - Sleeps 4

  • Wake up steps from Long Sands Beach at Minisands, a cozy oceanfront York cottage made for easy beach days, surf weekends, and memory-making getaways.

    Enjoy ocean views from the front deck, two on-site parking spaces, an outdoor shower, fast Wi-Fi, mini-split heat/AC, and a simple walk-across-the-street beach setup that makes your stay feel effortless from the moment you arrive.
    Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed coastal retreat with a queen bedroom, comfortable living space with a pullout sofa, smart TV, stocked essentials, and everything you need for a relaxed stay by the water.

    Minisands is best for couples, small families, solo beach escapes, and surfers looking for a clean, charming, well-located place to enjoy York without the stress of beach parking.

    Spend your mornings with coffee on the deck, your days across the street on Long Sands, and your evenings rinsing off in the outdoor shower before heading out for seafood, ice cream, a sunset walk, or a cozy night in.

    This is a small cottage with a big beach-town feel — simple, special, and set up for the kind of coastal stay you’ll want to repeat.
