Staying in this home added to our understanding of the regionâs history, as it has been in the ownerâs family since it was built nearly 150 years ago! The house is filled with many historical and personal touches. Itâs slightly quirky, so it may not be for everyone, though it is just as described in the ownerâs write-up. Location is excellent. We enjoyed our visit.
My mom, my aunt, and I so enjoyed staying at this lovely historic home in Rockport! We visited Boston and Salem, but Rockport is a great destination all on its own, with cute shops and delicious restaurants. This home situated in a quaint seaside village is welcoming and comfortable after a long day of exploring and shopping!
A lovely cottage in walking distance to small beaches and amazing galleries. Historic local family has owned this cottage and the love and care is felt in every room. We cooked all our meals, the kitchen has all you need. Vintage dishes, art and furniture makes it feel like you walked back in time. Hung out on the patio sipping coffee and admiring the garden.
We spent the week in this beautiful cozy cottage in Rockport Massachusetts. Couldnât of been a better place to be while we visited the area. We were able to Uber into Salem into Boston it was an all-around great experience. Would highly recommend this cozy cottage to anyone.
Loved the area. House was beautiful with lots of character. The house was well equipped for what we needed . Local shops and restaurants were great. Clam chowder was the best.
My family and I stayed in this beautiful cottage. Very cozy and inviting. You feel as though you have taken a small step back in time. The yard has an adorable fairy garden that all would love. The location is perfect. You can walk to beach, restaurants and stores. Would hi
My family and I spent a week in this perfect home. I absolutely fell in love from the minute I walked in. The house is clean and very well kept , everything was provided for us. It made crisp fall days absolutely beautiful.
Wonderful cottage in great location. We enjoyed seeing the historical references around the house, including the original cost of building the house. Walk to town was very easy. Loved the murals. House is extremely clean.
We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely historical house. Everything was clean, the rooms were comfortable and sunny, and there was plenty of space for our group. As other reviews mention, the kitchen is small, but we prepared many meals in there, and it is well stocked with pots and pans and utensils. The stairs are indeed steep, but the 5 year old and 75 year old in our group managed just fine! We loved being able to walk to downtown Rockport, to some of the small beaches, and to the park and playground. We'd definitely stay here again!
We had a fantastic time at this property. The house was cute, historic, and filled with personal history. It was short walk to downtown Rockport, the piers, and Bearskin Neck. In addition, the property manager Rachael was amazing and super nice. We had a problem with the TV, and she came over during a middle of storm to help us fix it! We had a perfect stay at this house, and we would most definitely stay here again.
I was in town to clear our my parents' home and prepare it for sale. It was an exhausting process. Each night, I was able to retreat to this beautiful and comfortable home. I loved all the personal touches that have been added to this historic home. I hope to come back to vacation some day.
This house is adorable, cozy and comfortable, and filled with multigenerational family history and memories. We truly felt like we were locals who lived in this home for the week. We had everything we needed. We made use of the bikes provided and there were also nice beach chairs, towels, and other recreational items for guest use. Karen was easy to communicate with and answered my questions promptly. We absolutely loved our week in Rockport and our stay in this very special, charming home.
We had a wonderful stay! The home was cozy and comfortable, and we all slept like babies each night. The beds are so comfortable! We enjoyed visiting in the living room each night, and we were very comfortable throughout. We had all we needed. P.s. the steps are steep but there is a railing on each side so even my 74-year-old mother was able to go up without a problem.
We loved walking to breakfast and shopping, and found the town to be incredibly charming. We had the best time! Highly recommend!
Loved having meals outside on the patio. A few observations: not a place for seniors or people with sore knees. The stairs to the second floor are very steep. The bedroom on the first floor could use a new mattress. We had some problems regulating the ac. To cool the upstairs adequately , the downstairs bedroom was very cold. Having lived in Rockport for years we were looking forward to open windows and the cool air....unfortunately we hit a hot spell.
Since we were staying 2 weeks we would have liked more (and fluffier) towels.
Found the Mile Marker restaurant in Gloucester great for lobster rolls, and the new Beauport hotel good for lunch.
This house is wonderful. It is exactly as described. We were always discovering something new in all the little touches added to the house decor. Frogs on windowsills, cats hanging from door frames, and of course the murals. The beds were very good and the shower is excellent. The kitchen is adequate. As stated it is a galley kitchen so don't expect more. The stairs are quite steep and take a little getting used to. I generally came down in the morning and did not go up again till bedtime. Thanks to New England weather we were able to test both the ac and heating. Both worked well. The patio and garden outside are very comfortable with more of the delightful little decorating touches that hide in the bushes. I highly recommend this home to anyone. It was just what my family needed to reconnect and heal from the loss of a loved one during the pandemic.
My husband and I stayed here and we were very comfortable. Rockport is such a cozy New England town. I would definitely stay here again. Karen was so easy to work with and very kind. The stairs are doable, which I was somewhat concerned with but there wasnât anything to worry about.
A wonderful Christmas stay. My husband and I were visiting family and this was a perfect place for us to unwind. Adorable, inviting and cozy. Immaculate, comfortable, bright. A lovely memory. Karen, our host, responding immediately. Thank you, Karen, for a most wonderful stay. We hope, when we visit again, we can stay at your lovely place.
Lovely house with spacious living room and master bedroom. A charming older house, but freshly renovated with central air, clean, well-appointed, beautiful patio and garden area. Walk to Bearskin Neck and Front Beach. Easy parking and location. Very comfortable for 5 of us.
Four adults were comfortable and enjoyed this unique property. Cute house, just a few minutesâ walk to the harbor, shops, and restaurants of this charming seacoast village. We recommend seeing a show at Shalin Liu if you can; a highlight!
Just walking around Rockport is fun.
We forgot to order sunshine, but made the best of four rainy days. Recommended if you like old houses and family history.
This house was perfect: perfect location, perfect amenities and very comfy. Contact with the owner and property manager was quick and helpful. Would return here in a heartbeat!
We loved staying in your family home. It was the perfect location to take a day trip to Boston, Plymouth and Portland. We enjoyed seeing all the family pictures and knick knacks. Thank you for sharing your family memories so we could make some of our own.
