The house is spacious and the bedrooms and kitchen had everything we needed. The second floor living space had beautiful natural light from all the giant windows. Easy 2 minute walk to the beach, and although its not directly on the water you can hear the ocean from the deck. Easy off street parking too. We stayed during the off season, so the area was pretty quiet which we enjoyed. Visited some great coffee shops and restaurants nearby as well.

Every room was tastefully decorated, showcasing a blend of modern aesthetics and cozy beach vibes. The open-concept living space was bright and airy, filled with natural light, making it an ideal spot to unwind after a day in the sun. The kitchen was fully equipped with high-end appliances, making meal preparation a breeze.Cleanliness is often a concern when renting a vacation property, but this house was immaculate. It was evident that the owners take great pride in maintaining their space, ensuring that every corner was spotless and welcoming. The location couldn't have been better! With the beach just a short walk away, we found ourselves enjoying sun-soaked days without the hassle of driving or parking while being close enough to town for great dining and shopping.

Comfortable couch, kitchen table and a nice layout. New fridge and everything we needed for the weekend. The only feedback from the group that wasn’t positive was that some beds were uncomfortable. 2 people elected to sleep on the couch the second night because the bed wasn’t good for them.

Some drains were clogged, toilets don't flush well and had no toilet paper refills. We used tissue. Main bath shower ran cold right away, but master shower was fine. Otherwise, the house was nicely stocked and all was well. Thanks! ##### Anne S. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniele S. Feb 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Ski Trip The house was perfect for our stay. Newburyport is very quaint. We had to drive through it each time we hit the slopes at Ski Bradford abiu 45 minutes away. Plum Island offered beatiful ocean views and the beach was a mere 5 minutes from the house. We also took the commuter train into the city that took about an house. The train station was about 15 minutes away. The house large enough for our group of 8...3 teenage girls slept in the bunk room, 2 teenage boys took the loft...83 year old Uncle stay in the queen room and my husband and I were in the master. The only complain from everyone was thar the sheets were a bit scratchy. It may be time for new sheets for all of the bed. Overall thought, the house was great. ##### Daniele S.

Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wedding Guest Stay Four adults with four kids (age 5 and under) stayed comfortably for 2 nights to attend a wedding in the area. The beach was close by and very nice. Parking for large SUVs was easy. The bedrooms downstairs and living space upstairs was a very good layout for our stay with young kids; it was good to have that separation. Beds were comfortable, couch was comfortable, and kitchen was very functional. Plenty of bathrooms for our stay. Many large beach towels were made available to use. We considered using the trundle bed as a sleeping option for a child but no extra linens were readily available and the fitted sheet on that bed was not clean. The top bunk was fine for a 5 year old but didn’t seem sturdy enough for an adult or a larger child. Bath towels were clean but there weren’t extra available. Overall we found the house quite suitable and we would come back for another long weekend another time! ##### Christine M. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Beth S., Naples, FL Oct 11, 2021 Liked: Check-in #### Great location, nice house, but... Cute home, lots of beach stuff, nice owners. The best part-very close to beach! Property needs basic maintenance, more silverware, serving pieces, only one lid for pots! Stove top and other things dirty upon arrival. Neighbors yards which surround/ directly abut and are visible from decks, kitchen, bedrooms etc. are basically junk yards - the people in them put more junk into while we were there! Those homes look awful and rotted!! Not visible from vrbo pictures. Ongoing construction on 2 new houses across the way starting 6:30-7 am M-F and the 2 abutting properties on weekends. A cleaning fee is charged, but arrival instructions say to clean house and do some laundry before leaving! Would possibly return if we knew the junk would be gone in abutting yards. ##### Beth S.

Aug 26, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Outstanding location -- details missed the mark PROS: Location & Nbr'hd were awesome. Super close to beach. Quiet & peaceful. Comfy sectional couch. House layout very nice. Host communicated immediately when we alerted him to ants in the kitchen. CONS: Musty smell in bedrooms. Musty smell in towels. Kitchen felt lacking of tools, pans -- a bit beat up & tools that were there were not great quality (random, pans that did not fit tops, poor knives, poor carrot peelers, regular handsoap in a foam soap container so did not work well... that sort of thing). Overall we would consider staying here again but for the price, we think there could have better attention to detail. Better quality in kitchen items, host should provide shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc. If it were an old house with a lower pricetag, we could accept those things. But, it is a house that has been redone and should not have the musty smell present in bedrooms. ##### Rebecca T. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia C. Oct 9, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing place and people I needed this house for only one night to surprise my 80 year old mom with her 11th and 12th great grandkids. I was excited because of the location is amazing with easy walk to beach and preserve and close to the fun local shops in town. More amazing than that was working with Caitlin who allowed us to check in early to spend as much time with family as possible as we were leaving MA the day after. She was so generous and kind and even recommended the perfect spot for the surprise. The only thing I can say even remotely negai is there are a lot of stairs and I am chunky. But so worth everything and more. ##### Patricia C.
