Great family stay!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The hosts were very communicative prior to our arrival, and answered questions quickly along the way. The house was within walking distance of the beach which my kids loved very much! It was clean, plenty of great light and amazing windows to capture the breeze each day. We would not hesitate to return!

Great location and property

This house is on the Rockport road, walking distance to two beaches. We loved the layout with the bedrooms and baths on the sides, and living/dining/kitchen in the lowered center: master BR/bath on its own side private. The back patio is also very private and nice. Landscaping Five Stars. The visiting wild turkeys pretty cool too.We had a cleanliness issue when we checked in (cleaning crew cutting corners most likely) and contacted the property owner. She was upset and had the issues corrected same afternoon: outstanding response!Thank you.

beach time fun with family

This property is an ideal location for Long Beach, good harbor beach and Rockport. The outside shower was great for wash off after the beach. Cool shaded and breezy backyard patio area. Nice living space and perfect for a getaway. Loved our time there. Everything was nearby

Weekend getaway

The place was wonderful, with a perfect location between Rockport and Gloucester and close to the beach. My family enjoyed our stay there immensely. There are many windows in the house, which was great as there is no air conditioning, but a good few of the screens had holes. Anne was a great host and very communicative.

Perfect space and location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will stay here again. The space was perfect for our family. My husband & I and our three adult daughters & their partners found the bedrooms very comfortable. The open concept kitchen/living room/dining room was perfect for visiting and relaxing together. We were able to walk to both Long Beach and Good Harbor. The patio was perfect for morning coffee and eating outside. The house and the yard were even nicer than the in the pictures. Thank you for a wonderful place to have our vacation!

Wonderful stay

Had a wonderful stay at this property. It was everything we needed. Location was great. Near quite a few attractions and grocery store just down the road. The owner was very prompt with communication and self check-in was great! Only issue and really wasnt that big was the place was tidy...but could've used a little additional care. The throw pillows on the couch are stained up and need to be replaced. Also the bathtub in one of the bathrooms drains very slow. But honestly these issues didn't put a damper on our stay.

Steps

The house was lovely and in a nice locale. The only thing we found difficult to manage were all the steps up and down from the bedrooms. One person in the group has vision issues. But the hosts were very responsive when we had questions.

A few maintenance issues. Blinds in the bedroom that did not work. A towel rack that fell off the wall. An electric outlet that arced. The bunkbed needs work to make it safe. No soap in showers. The layout was great. The location was excellent.

Our stay was great and allowed us to have a nice place to return to each evening while out at the beach, sightseeing, or spending time with my family (reunion). When a concern arose, the host connected with the property manager to swing by for assistance. The situation was handled and we were able to continue on with the rest of our stay without additional concern.

Family Beach Vacation

Perfect family beach vacation home. Walkable to our favorite beach (Good Harbor). Lots of space and fresh air. We were fortunate to enjoy perfect weather. However, if hot and humid, without a/c the home may have been uncomfortable. Short walk to beach but no side walks on the main road was a bit concerning. We managed with shuttling and to and from beach with driver parking on site and walking back to beach. We had a fabulous time.

Perfect location and lots of common space!

This is the second year in a row that I have stayed at this home with my husband, adult children and their partners and it was just as great this time around. It was a short walk to two beautiful beaches. The home is well organized for our family. The combined kitchen, eat-in area, and living room is a great space for a family reunion! And Ann is very helpful and responsive. Hope to be back next year!

October Salem trip

We stayed here for a weeklong trip to celebrate my wife’s birthday with a plan of going to Salem, Vermont, and New Hampshire. The house was nice with no issues for us and the kids. The owner was very responsive when I needed to get ahold of them with questions. Everyone in the general area was very nice to out of towners. The local beach was nice along with the local communities.

Great Home

We booked the home for 2 adult couples and this was a great choice! The home looked amazing and was very cozy with the divided floor plan. The host made us feel at home with quick communications back and forth with questions we had. The cleaning crew will need to do some work because there was dust and cob webs throughout the home but still very presentable. Overall I would definitely recommend booking this home and would do it again for our family in a heartbeat.

Nice on the outside, but not in.

Location was great. Access easy. Interior of home was musty smelling, dated, and NO attention to detail in cleanliness. After notifying the owner of the condition we found the house in, we checked out two hours after checking in. We notified the owner to have someone swing by to confirm our departure. The reasonable standards of a VBRO property were not met. Very unsatisfied. Traveled four hours back home. Hoping to see some kind of refund or credit. : (

Location Good But…

A good location for getting either to Gloucester or Rockport. But walking to the beach is hazardous No sidewalks no shoulder. It is however an easy and short ride. Beautiful Beach. The house sleeps 8 but only if two people sleep on the curved leather sofa. Enough room for six Would be a better description. The third shower is an outside shower not enclosed and cold only! The house was very HOT no air the fans provided were very dirty as was the house. Some windows didn’t open well and the living room has no blinds or privacy.I would recommend a new house cleaning service.

Why they chose this property

I love Gloucester. The beaches, the fishing, the local shops and miost especialy the people.

What makes this property unique

Our house, set back from the road, is secluded from surrounding properties in the back by a large rock wall, and a privacy hedge in front. My children love climbing here, and it offers privacy while you are using the yard. I love tho, that the house is so centrally located that you can just walk to the beach, or drive to the shops.
