Lovely stay

My sister and stayed here and found it a sweet stay, the bedroom had soft comfy sheets and the mattress was incredibly perfect that the both of us fell right to sleep. The neighbor hood had amazingly helpful people who guided us to Salam while walking their dog. I’m glad we stayed here, it only increased the Salem Halloween experience. It made us feel apart of the community. Thank you for this treasured memory.

Feels like home

Wonderful three story home set in the hills of Boston suburb with great updates to the bathrooms and kitchen. A quaint second floor balcony with table and chairs surrounded by the tree tops and a wonderful back yard below. Charming, friendly and cozy!

Fun in Boston

The entire experience was very good. Charlie, the house manager, was incredibly helpful anytime we needed advice or had a problem. I didn't like the street congestion (i.e. - two way traffic on essentially "one car width" streets), but we were told by a very nice gentleman during our travels that that simply means "Welcome to Boston." The litmus test is always - would we stay there again? The answer is a resounding yes! Dave and Flo
