We had a great stay in Gloucester -as prior reviews noted, parking was a bit tight with a large vehicle but we were able to figure it out and a minor issue. The cottage was clean, comfortable, private-- a very sweet place to come home to after sunset at the nearby cove. Loved exploring Halibut Point, Gloucester, Rockport, etc. What a gorgeous spot!
The parking area is quite tight, could benefit from a bit more excavation. I wouldn't want to try to park a large SUV or Pickup there! Ideal location, it was very much what was advertised. One note, and this may be more oriented towards VRBO in general, but the fees for cleaning and processing seem rather exorbitant!
Very clean and quiet. Perfect for a two night stay. TV system was a bit challenging to navigate but we figured it out. Good location close to the beach and great seafood nearby.
Cottage was adorable! Super clean annd comfortable! We had everything we needed! Great communication with owner who even found friends of our a place to stay right down the street! The only thing is parking is super tight if you have a bigger car, truck or SUV
Very nice little cottage, perfect for a couple to stay for the weekend. Parking is tight for a large vehicle, but the location was beautiful. All in all a great stay, thanks. Complimentary coffee and tea was a welcome touch.
Everything was perfect. Relaxing get-away, close enough to beaches shops and restaurants, in a quiet location, with beautiful sunsets, just steps away. Can't wait to return.
This property was perfect! It was clean, comfortable and cozy. It was 2 miles from our family and we enjoyed being close to the water and town as well. The bed was comfortable, which isn't often the case in a rental. We didn't want to leave!
My stay was just what I hoped for! Peace and quiet to read and write, but also to spend time outside, breathing in the ocean air, searching for sea glass, looking at the lighthouses, and enjoying the time.
Boston can be rough in winter, especially having moved to Boston recently from a small town, so it was lovely to get out of the city and stay at Plum Cove. The little cottage was lovely and peaceful, and Cape Ann was an amazing locale to explore. Can’t wait to come back to the area this summer!
This was a beautiful place to stay for a a birthday/anniversary trip! It was easy to get to and had off street parking. We were amazed by the cleanliness and coziness and had everything we needed! You can see the sea from the drive way, but not really from inside the cottage. The steps to the beach is really to a cove, we chose to drive less than 10 min to Good Harbor beach and it was amazing! Halibut State Park was about a 15 minute drive and had a nice and easy hiking to the water. If ever this far northeast again we will definitely rebook!
We loved the cottage. Perfect for my husband and I. Very short walk to Plum Cove. What we didn’t bring were cards, cribbage board etc. would recommend that be added to amenities.
Don't hesitate to book this cottage. It is really charming and super clean! The kitchen is incredibly well stocked. The bed and sofa are both very comfortable. The location is quiet and close to everything. There are beach chairs available which made our trip down to the beach super nice. And you can sit on the porch to watch the stars or listen to the water feature. We can't wait to come back! Thank you for having us!
We had a wonderful stay at this darling cottage. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything you can imagine you would need. Bed was comfortable. There was a neighborhood turkey that was very entertaining. Thank you.
