About this property

Walk to the ocean, very private. Secluded, woodsy location.

  • We are a cozy studio in a unique setting. There is a babbling brook that runs through the property to the ocean. This was a granite-quarrying site many years ago, and the property retains the remnants of a granite road used by ox carts to move granite blocks to the schooners. There is wild life on occasion, we recently had a great blue heron for several days. State park on the ocean is a 20 min walk.

I had a great stay :) Phil was very welcoming, friendly and hospitable. Took some great walks and had a nice meditation spot by the creek. Despite owners being on the property, I never saw them unless I needed something. They made it feel very private and that was very appreciated.

Magical retreat

I loved staying in this simple little efficiency. This part of Massachusetts is truly a hidden gem. Philip was very welcoming and gracious. The property was beautiful (I saw a bunny, chipmunks, a deer) and the space was comfortable. I highly recommend this place.

Pleasant and private

My host was hospitable and helpful. The entire area, including the town, is pleasant and welcoming. The ocean is probably within walking distance for guests who are not encumbered by physical constraints. I really enjoyed the spots by the brook. The property has wonderful potential, and host seems committed to necessary upgrades to better accommodate colder temperatures. I would consider staying there again.

Peaceful Property

Phil, the host, met us when we arrived to make sure we found the place before it is more secluded. The property was gorgeous and peaceful. My husband and I sat outside each morning of our stay and drank our coffee together. Good location too. Downtown Rockport is a short drive. Hammond Castle and downtown Salem aren’t too far either.

Cozy Stay

Beautiful, cozy stay near the ocean. Beautiful views a short walk away. Because of the weather we didn't get to use much of the outdoor space, but several nice chairs outside. Felt pretty private, separate entrance from rest of house. The grill was a nice touch, but nowhere to sit and eat inside (other than the bed) so we didn't get a chance to cook. Thanks for the lovely stay!

The hosts communication was wonderful. Directions were great. It is definitely a rural area which is appx. 20-30 minutes from Gloucester. The host lives there, which is no big deal except parking was horrible. He didn’t accommodate us at all. We had to walk down a grassy hill to get to the apartment, which was difficult for me with a walker. The kitchen isn’t really usable due to the size. There is a support beam in the middle of the walkway. The bathroom door didn’t shut and the toilet was so close to the sink my knees hit. The bedroom area was very nice and he had heavy comforters for people like me that are cold all the time. The windows did not lock nor the sliding glass door. We are from ny so we lock things lol. The pictures you see of the rocks with words on them are not visible. The yard would have been great if it were maintained. No babbling book either. There were, however, two chairs outside to sit in. That was enjoyable and it was definitely quiet. Overall, I would not recommend this property. I’m f course you may feel differently if you want to give it a whirl.
