Great property!
We stayed here for a couple of weeks while our house renovation was being completed nearby. The property is wonderful, clean, spacious, and well equipped. Being locals, I can say it is in a very central area, with easy access to downtown Rockport, the train to Boston, and the beach. Erin the owner was wonderful to work with. We would recommend this property to anyone wishing to enjoy the beauty of Cape Ann!

We had a very enjoyable visit. The welcome package was well used and enjoyed. The one bathroom was workable but rough on people sleeping on the second floor. Overall, the 4 of us enjoyed the house.

The Perfect Oasis
The location of this house was perfect for the slower paced vacation we were hoping for traveling with a toddler. We were able to easily walk down to Front beach, Bearskin Neck, and many excellent restaurants and shops. It was also a short drive away from having awesome day trips to Ipswich, Gloucester, and even Salem. For those who love to visit in larger towns and cities, but prefer to unwind and relax outside of them, this location was absolutely perfect! We couldn't have asked for a better place, location, or host. We look forward to staying again!

Cute and quaint house with a pretty backyard. So close to town and the train, as well as the beach. The kitchen was really well equipped and you can easily cook a big meal, plus there is a grill in the backyard. The host was fantastic about communicating with me when I left something behind. Highly recommend this comfy home.

Better than First Time!!!
Our second stay at this perfect family house was magnificent! We literally felt as comfortable as if we were home. We cook virtually all our meals. The kitchen couldn’t have been better prepared. While not huge , the house offers privacy alongside family gathering spaces simultaneously. Great stay!

Lovely property with everything you could need. Location was great- 10 min walk to beach, 15 min walk to shops. Unfortunately construction across street was a bit loud but we were out most days. Really enjoyed our stay.

Perfect getaway for a family!
We were thrilled with everything offered at this property. Short walk to beach and town, ice cream store practically next door, plenty of space for all and a backyard to sit back and relax. It was clean and communicating with the owner was seamless. They even left a welcome gift! So grateful to have this time as a family in the perfect home.
