We were pleased with our stay here. It met our expectations and communication with our hostess was great. It's a cute little space and I like that it's not near a busy road, it's tucked back a bit. Would recommend.

Cute place, walking distance to town. Very narrow road to get to house and parling is tight for a full size teuck. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
The studio is within walking distance of the beach, a coffee shop and ice cream.Gabi was lovely and told us about local artists as well as places to eat. We would definitely stay here again.
This location was perfect. We thought the condo was well appointed, decorated nicely and was private.We thought our hosts were attentive and communicated with us. There were informational brochures with areas of interest and good recommendations for dining.

Perfect studio for 2 people in a great neighborhood that's close to great restaurants and sightseeing activities. The host (Gabrielle) was outstsnding, she explained everything in detail and she had everything ready for us when we arrived. Would love to stay here again if we find ourselves in the North Shore again.

You were wonderful guests and I do hope we will have the pleasure of your visit once again.
Lovely studio big enough for us the cleaning was immaculate. Owner was kind and showed us where to park. I didn't know how much i missed not having a tv in the house. This place was absolutely what i needed to have a few relaxing days. Recommend 100 %
We had a lovely stay in these cozy accomodations. Convenient location to Boston and Salem, we did day trips to both. Communication was good, and the whole experience met our expectations. The town and local beach is cute and easy to walk.
We came to Gloucester to experience St. Peter's Fiesta and a 40th birthday celebration. Loved the location - easy walking distance to beach and Fiesta. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet, which was a perfect escape from all the partying downtown. The studio was perfect for two, very clean. I had a lovely chat with the host. It was the perfect place for our stay.

We loved having you both Joann. Delighted that the vacation was all you wanted. Come again.
The location of this place is great. close to the beach, Charlie's, Cape Ann Coffees. Garbrielle went out of her way to be helpful to us and was very easy to communicate with. She made us feel right at home. The place is larger than I expected, and the three of us fit very comfortably into the studio. They also have games and books for everyone to enjoy. Thank you Gabrielle for a wonderful stay!
Very well maintained, clean, tastefully decorated.. many suggestions about things to do in area, as well as places to eat…was a little noisy with children running back and forth, but was ok…quiet at night, slept well…

Thanks for your review, Elaine. We look forward to your return in the future. Your visit coincided with that of our active 9 year old grandchild. Sorry for the extra movement overhead.
This place was so cozy and quaint! My husband and I had the best anniversary trip and would highly recommend staying here! The location was great and the recommendations were amazing! We will definitely be back!

Solo traveler found the intimate place ideal for enjoying beautiful towns of Gloucester and nearby Rockport. My three-night stay was pleasant, comfortable, and free of problems. The host was quite friendly, responsive and helpful.

Glad you had a good time Mark. We enjoyed having you as a guest. Hope you can return.
This spot was just what my daughter and I were hoping for on our very quick but enjoyable beach getaway. Well situated, clean, quiet -- we couldn't have asked for better. So glad to have found this as an option for visiting Good Harbour.
My family enjoyed our 3 night stay. The room was clean and the property manager(owners) were very pleasant to work with. They worked very quickly to fix an issue we had with being locked out of the place. Quiet little area and seemed very safe to stay with a family.
