Anniversary Trip
Our sons and their families joined us for an anniversary trip. The house was perfect for us. Great location, close to train and short walk to harbor. Gretchen was wonderful, even purchased a pack n play as we had little ones along. The baby gates were super helpful also. Would definitely recommend this house to others.

Beautiful house in a charming neighborhood
The house is bright, beautiful, well stocked, and SO clean. It’s in a charming neighborhood within walking distance of galleries, shops, restaurants, and the beach, and a quick drive to Salem. Our host was flexible, friendly, and helpful. We had a lovely time despite cold, rainy weather.

Wonderful stay
My family rented this house for my wedding weekend. The wedding was in my in-law's backyard nearby, but this was perfect for my family who were visiting from out of town.

Fabulous Rockport Getaway
We had an incredible week in this tucked away gem in Rockport. The house was immaculate and every detail has been thought through for guests. Very few rental homes provide more than a roll or two of toilet paper. Gretchen has provided linens, beach towels, beach chairs, soap, tissues and all of the basics for cooking. The home is peaceful, spacious and fully appointed. We would stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you!

50th anniversary getaway
The home was perfect for the ten of us (2 grandparents, 4 parents, and 4 grandchildren) to celebrate our 50th as a family. It is close to the beach and close to downtown. Gretchen was an outstanding host, we highly recommend this VRBO property.

Great family house!
What a lovely home! All five of my kids had their own bed, there was plenty of space to spread out, eat, and play family games. It was so nice not to have to pack all the beach towels, boogie boards, and beach stuff because it was already there! The walk to front beach was easy and the town of Rockport was so cute and the perfect place for a family stay full of adventure!
