Great place to stay. Nice quiet area with easy access to the beach. The house is clean and has everything necessary to cook in or grill. Plenty of space out back to enjoy.
This is a great little beach house- we loved the outside shower and thoughtfully placed hose and other items that made it easy to spend many very enjoyable days and nights there.
Had a wonderful long weekend over the 4th of July! The location was perfect, the beach was amazing, the house had everything we needed: plenty of space, comfortable beds, wonderful front porch and back deck! Highly recommend this home and area!
This place was amazing and the attention to detail is to be admired. So welcoming, charming and comfortable. Everything you could think of they provided, literally only need to bring your cloths. Cant wait to stay again!!!
Perfect beach cottage for a small family get-away. Very relaxing and quiet with plenty of room to spread out. We loved doing puzzles and playing board games in the large, sunny family room. We appreciated all the small touches that made us feel at home.
We had a great stay at this lovely Plum Island cottage for a family extended weekend getaway. The house is cozy and clean and in easy walking distance to the beach as advertised. It's a quick drive to beautiful Newburyport only a few miles away with wonderful restaurants, sites and activities. 5 stars.
Every year we pick a different house to stay in when we come to Plum Island. The house was very comfortable. The beach was a short walk away. We love going into Newburyport and shop. We would stay in this house again.

Great beach house
My mom, aunt, daughter and I enjoyed our stay here. The house is exactly as portrayed. We had no issues, and when I reached out to the host with a very minor concern, he responded immediately. The outside shower is wonderful! The home was comfortable. We're very familiar with the island and have been going for years so we knew what to expect with the location. This was a terrific getaway.
We really enjoyed our time on Plum Island. It's a cute little beach community and the cottage is a short walk from the ocean. We played games, did a puzzle, relaxed on the porches at our vacation cottage. We did day trips to Boston, Rhode Island and Portland. Nearby Newburyport was really neat and fun to explore as well. And of course there's the beach. Plum Island has a few little shops and diners too, so you can stay put and relax the days away if you wanted to.
The cottage had plenty of space for our family. The host was extremely kind when we had an issue and he was great with communication.
Great location on a neighborhood side street, across the street from the beach. Love this simple clean three bedroom house. Two Porches were great. All the rooms had A/C! We had a small issue and the landlord responded ASAP.
