Not to brag, but we have the BEST team in York Harbor!

Last week was our annual Employee Appreciation Week, and we pulled out all the stops for the folks who keep this place running. We kicked things off Monday with house-made coffee and pastries in the Yorkshire Ballroom, then took over the lawn by the gazebo on Tuesday for tie-dye, our team and their kiddos absolutely ROCKED it.

Midweek brought the good stuff: the Whoopie Pie Truck rolled in Wednesday with a true Maine classic, the gelato truck flew in from Italy on Thursday and was an instant favorite on a warm afternoon, and Friday we cooled off with snow cones on the Ballroom Patio with the Sales team! We closed out the week with candy bags and snack baskets for every department.

From the front desk to housekeeping, from the 1637 Main Dining Room to the Ship's Cellar Pub and Chapman Cottage, a heartfelt thank you goes out to every single member of our team! Your warmth and hard work are what our guests remember long after they've checked out. We had THE BEST time celebrating you, and we can't wait to do it all again next year!
