Great Rockport House

We loved our stay in this home. A very clean, comfortable, and well decorated home. My wife and I were looking for an easy weekend away. Staying at this property on Cape Ann was perfect. Close to both Rockport and Gloucester.

Everything was just as stated. The location offer great access to the town but was also secluded and quiet. The host communicated everything needed and then some. The home is very comfortable.

First visit to Rockport

My husband and I and our 22 year old daughter spent two nights. The house was perfect for our group. Clean and comfortable. Much better than a hotel room for three.

Rockport in June

We had a short stay in Rockport on our way back to PA from Maine. Communication was prompt whenever we had a question about the property. It was a lovely place to stay with a lot of books and toys for our toddler. It is roughly a 15 minute walk to the town center.

Rockport Aug ‘24

We had a wonderful time! The house was charming and very well equipped! The town of Rockport was wonderful and the restaurants were delicious. We used the house as a home base to explore Boston, Gloucester, Rockport and Freeport. The beaches and other natural areas were beautiful! This amateur photographer and her family will be back! We would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you for your kind hospitality!

Don't Hesitate

I want to start by saying we have used VRBO from coast to coast so we have plenty of rentals to compare to. This is an outstanding accommodation. Spotlessly clean, fantastic location, quiet and peaceful. The home is full of books and artwork and every conceivable game for rainy days. You can go on lovely scenic walks right out the door. A half block away is access to the public footpath which you can take to town. I wouldn't hesitate to rent again.

Lovely cottage

This is a lovely cottage by the sea. Location is great with nice walk to Bearskin Neck. Cottage is well-equipped in the kitchen although we only cooked breakfast. There are a few punch list items to complete from the recent renovation. Love the bathroom under the stairs we dubbed the ‘Harry Potter’ bathroom. Comfortable for 4. Quiet surroundings.
