Wonderful House, Fantastic Yard

We stayed for the weekend- i took off one star for the hill which honestly was not too bad. We were able to walk everywhere (25k steps for 1 day!!) The best part was sitting at the table in the yard, in the shade, with the breeze and getting to sit quietly and read a book. The accomadations were wonderful and the record player was an unexpected treat. Wonderful spot, great communication which led to an amazing weekend

Charming Village Cottage

Delighted to stay in this small village antique, walking distance to the village coffee shop and to Bearskin Neck. The place was clean and cozy, and as described in the listing. The bathroom is small but functional, and the stairs are super steep but the handrail makes them safe. Our host was responsive and kind. We'd stay here again!

Blackburn Challenge racers

A cute place and convenient for a 2-night stay with our little dog. Well-appointed and comfortable. We did not hang out a lot at the property but it seems a pleasant spot for a small group that is ok with simple pleasures — not fancy but perfectly nice!! We were comfy with individual room ACs, and so thankful for coffee provided!

Great space and location!

Our family of 5 had plenty of space in a cozy setting! Great communication with host and we felt very welcome. It wasn’t overly hot while we were there but the window units on the main floor and in each bedroom was still appreciated! The easy walk to Bear Skin Neck and the beaches was the unanimous family favorite!

Quaint and Cozy

We loved our stay here. The location was perfect for walking to Bear Skin Neck, the train station, and restaurants. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. The house was clean, cute, and supplied with everything we needed. After a long day of exploring the area, which is beautiful, we enjoyed playing the games provided and listening to some records. It was a very nice home away from home. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely, easy stay

This was a fantastically easy stay in Rockport. We came to town to visit friends and this was such an ideal location in Rockport as well as proximity to Gloucester. The main bed was firm- very comfy for me! A great night sleep. There was everything you could want in the kitchen for a longer stay, too. Good hot water in shower! Some cleanliness issues, which did not bother us for such a short stay- just some dust/ pet hair, and shower grout issues- not a big deal. Communication with Malikkah was so easy and she made this such a comfy, safe stay. Unlike other places we have stayed, the check in and check out was SO easy. Grateful for this spot. Definitely recommending to others.

Cozy and Convenient

The little house in Rockport is cute and very cozy - my husband felt a little cramped in the bathroom and negotiating the stairs. The location is terrific - quiet yet close to whatever activities one might wish to do. Grocery shopping is convenient as well. The addition of the washer and dryer will be a nice addition as would an ironing board and iron.
