We did a week here. This location is fantastic. Off the beaten path but only 20 min from main attractions. Home was exceptionally clean and had everything you would need for a stay. Beautifully decorated and comfortable! We will be back some day.
We recently stayed in this charming one-bedroom cottage and were thoroughly impressed by its perfect mix of comfort, character, and fantastic location! With beautiful ocean views, this cozy retreat offers the ideal balance between relaxation and adventure. Whether you're taking a peaceful walk along the shore into the lovely town of Rockport, or planning day trips to the historic cities of Salem, Gloucester, or even bustling Boston, the cottage is ideally located for it all. The easy access to both the coast and nearby cities made our stay truly enjoyable!

Easy to park right at the door. Lovely, clean house. But, I think the limited headroom around the loft bed needs to be mentioned. I am short, but a tall person would be uncomfortable I believe.
Rockport is lovely and the cottage is a treasure. It is in a location that offers stunning views of the ocean from its two balconies. The house is beautifully decorated and is furnished with everything anyone could ever imagine needing or wanting. Dianne is generous and responsive - she obviously desires that her guests have a wonderful visit.
We loved our stay in this cottage. Very peaceful and a quiet street. Beautiful views of the water with great sunrises and sunsets. Lovely decor throughout the cottage. Great location for site seeing. Host made us feel very welcome and very kind. 10/10 experience.
The owner was great to deal with - very responsive. The property was clean, and spacious for two adults. The upstairs deck, with two chairs and a small table, offers a great view of the ocean / bay - unobstructed view of July sunrise. The larger table on the downstairs deck was a good spot for a meal.
While the kitchen does not have a stove or oven, it does have electric burners as well as an electric frying pan. We used the frying pan, which worked well.
It was an easy, roughly one mile walk, to downtown Rockport which has lots of shops and restaurants. Gloucester provides even more options, and is just a short drive away.
A heads up to future guests - there may be other vehicles parked in the driveway. Upon our arrival, there was a pickup truck as well as a boat trailer. Also, the lockbox is flush with the door and difficult to see in the sunshine. Those two things made us uncertain that we had arrived at the correct place. But, we had - and are so happy that we did! There was still plenty of parking for our vehicle - so, it was not an issue except for the doubt we had upon arrival.
Two positives from a security standpoint - (1) it appears that the lockbox code is changed with each guest, and (2) it appears that the internet login is changed periodically.
We would definitely stay again.
Absolutely a lovely cottage! Great location. Host left a binder of beaches, restaurants and activities to enjoy during our stay - took the guess work away from us. Enjoyed the bedroom deck with views of the water. Simply wonderful!
Perfect spot for a couple. The gardens are beautiful and each deck was a treat. Nice location for walks to either area beaches or granite pier. Easy drive to other Cape Ann communities and larger beaches (i.e. Crane in Ipswich).
We were really happy with this cottage. We enjoyed our view from the second floor in the evenings. The location was great for our morning walks to town. Kitchen had everything we needed for a weekend. Nicely updated! Friendly owners & lovely shared garden area.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed staying in this cottage. It is very nicely decorated and a perfect cozy cottage for a relaxing getaway. Enjoyed the ocean views from the top balcony with morning coffee. Our hosts were very responsive and provided a lot of recommendations.
We enjoyed our stay. The sunrise and sunsets were worth getting up for and making time to watch each evening. Very convenient to downtown Rockport. Great area to walk in, as well. Off the main road, which was nice! Love the view!! We stayed in and watched the view often!
Loved our stay in Rockport. The location of the cottage was perfect. We shopped at the local shops and visited beaches. Taking the train to Salem was very convenient. Would stay again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was very clean and just as pictured. The upstairs view makes for a delightful way to begin the day. Communication was easy and pleasant. It's also an easy walk to the town of Rockport. We would definitely stay here again.
This was everything I expected and more... every detail of the home was perfect, sooo cozy...the backyard garden area was a peaceful, beautiful oasis...and the location was Amazing...so many beautiful places to explore ..a wonderful vacation
This was a beautifully maintain and comfortable property. The location was amazing to walk into the village, or the fresh spring around the corner. Magical!! We are hoping to make a return trip there next year.
