History
The summer residents of York Harbor founded the York Harbor Reading Room in 1897, renting a cottage on Mason’s Hill in which they could gather while spending time there in the warmer weather. Twelve years later the space was too small to accommodate the growing group of members, and the clubhouse as it stands today was opened in 1910. This venue is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
