Holbrook House: Charming Rockport Village House, Walk To Everything!

A cozy, lovingly restored 1950's house. Walking distance to all that Rockport village and Bear Skin Neck has to offer.

The sunshine yellow Holbrook House is set on a quiet side street, and a short walk to Front Beach. Granite cobblestone provides parking spots for 2 cars.

The first bedroom has 2 twin beds. Second bedroom has queen bed. The natural light filled living room features a brick fireplace, flat screen Smart TV with cable and WiFi, window seat to get comfy and read a great book.

Full eat in kitchen with stainless steel appliances. One full bathroom on second floor and spacious laundry/mud room on first floor.

Stone patio and outdoor shower completed in 2015, making the backyard the perfect space to wash up post-beach days and enjoy al-fresco dining.

Lovely little house in Rockport
we absolutely loved our stay here. The house is close to the town and beaches and actually exceeded our expectations. The beds are very comfortable, the living room is a good size with games and plenty of books, the kitchen is a good size and stocked with all the cookware and tableware that you would need. The bathroom is a little small but had plenty of towels and hot water and honestly, what else do you need? We enjoyed sitting out on the patio out back with our glasses of wine and definitely plan on staying here again. Thanks Frank and Fran!

Great House!
This is our third summer staying at the Holbrook House. We love it-great house, great owners. Perfect size for our family of 4. We love the location for walks to the beach, town, and train station. We love having the backyard, outdoor shower and grill-which are not easy to come by in Rockport! We will be back next year for our 4th year.

Another wonderful stay
This was our second visit and it was just as delightful as the first. The house is a perfect home away from home. Fran and Frank make sure you have everything you need. I especially love that there were additional little books and activities for the kids. The location also can’t be beat. You’re right near the beach and downtown shops and food. And if you have kids, there’s a park around the corner. We absolutely plan to come back again.
