"Beautiful property and area. Rooms were very clean. Staff was very friendly. Would definitely come back."

New England Coastal Residence

10/10 Excellent

"This is an excellent property. It is immaculate and the host is very personable and nice. He answers you no matter the time of day or night. The property is beautiful and the beds are like sleeping in a cloud. There was no expense spared n making this property feel like home I highly suggest this property and host I can not say enough good things about it or him"

Blue Magnolia - A quiet apartment in a quaint Gloucester MA village

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stay. Mike was a great host and would stay again."

Spacious Lakefront Escape w/ 3 Baths + Bonus Bed

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely lake house! We really enjoyed the house and setting. Everything was perfect and Anna was a great host. We will definitely return!"

Shore Cottage - Coastal gem, a traveler favorite! Outdoor patio, central AC.

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment you drive onto the property, a total sense of relaxation sets in. The beautifully maintained grounds and fragrant pollinator plants create an immediate, calming welcome. Tucked away from traffic noise, the bungalow offers complete peace and quiet. Meghan is a phenomenal host—she was exceptionally responsive before, during, and after our stay to ensure everything was perfect. The personalized welcome card and over-the-top snack setup made us feel right at home. The bungalow itself is impeccably styled, invitingly comfortable, and fully equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi, a TV, and an Alexa. As senior citizens, we especially loved the hassle-free parking: being able to park right next to the front door made loading and unloading luggage a total breeze. To top it off, the location is unbeatable—just two minutes from the waterfront and the iconic Gloucester Fisherman’s Memorial. If you are looking for the perfect coastal weekend getaway, look no further. This hidden gem is a must-stay!"

The Essex of Gloucester

8/10 Good

"The house was very clean and comfortable. They could use a bench or chair in one of the guest rooms to put your suitcase on and also some table reading lamps next to the bed. Also sone ice cube trays for the freezer. Great location. Very easy to get to and check in was perfect."

Winter deal! Delightful 3-4 bed one floor, 3 baths, fireplace

10/10 Excellent

"We get together with family friends annually and this place was a great setting all around. We made great use of the screened in porch, the outdoor spaces (kids loved playing baseball out back) and the large kitchen. The final bedrooms are through an unfinished basement then through a door and down some stairs - so fairly far away.. This downstairs area was good for some of the older kids. We also LOVED the piano and had some wonderful sing along memories made! We did miss a few amenities we usually associate with VRBOs - dish soap; some hand soap in several bathrooms; sufficient toilet paper for our stay (several bathrooms only had a half roll and there were no extras in the home); paper towels; cooking oil...with that said we brought a few of these to the host's attention and he was quickly responsive and willing to buy them and bring them out. We just opted to purchase our own but might be worth bringing these or clarifying before you show up if these are things you don't usually bring like us. Also - a location note - we'd hoped to put in kayaks and SUPs in the nearby marina or behind the house. There is definitely no access behind the house and the marina staff were not friendly to us when trying to launch our kayaks. Overall small things in the scheme of things though and we had such a wonderful time! Would return - great value & location!"

Stunning Views from Beachfront House in Manchester-by-the-Sea!

10/10 Excellent

"This property was amazing! Bob was an excellent host! He was very quick to respond to any questions we had. The house had everything we needed which was wonderful! It was fully equipped! The location was perfect....right on the water with amazing beach views and beautiful sunrises and sunsets! We used everything Bob had from beach towels to floats and kayaks. We will definitely be returning! Thank you so much Bob!"
