Great Property; Great Location

House is spacious and perfect for a larger family to spread out. Outdoor space is perfect for summer barbecues. Location is excellent for both local activities (beaches, shops restaurants, parks) as well as taking a jaunt into Boston (ferry to Boston is an 8 min drive from house and is a scenic 30 min cruise through the harbor to land downtown). Would stay again.

Beautiful Home!

We gathered from around the Country and this home exceeded our expectations! Plenty of space to gather together but space to be alone when needed. Everyone was happy with bed comfort and bedding. Plenty of supplies for group meal prep. Nantasket Beach and Hingham ferry both less then 15 mins. away. Worlds End is practically in the backyard. Really enjoyed this property and would book again!

Wonderful house in Hingham

We loved our trip to Massachusetts and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Hingham. The house was fantastic and well maintained. The rooms sizes are ample so lots of room for all of us to spread out. The house is on an amazing lot with a great view. It's a very short walk to World's End (nature preserve) and we visited there more than once. It's also easy to get to other locations such as Boston and Plymouth. Communication with the owners and property manager were super easy. My family said this was one of our best vacations. I would definitely stay in this house again. Can't say enough nice things about it!

A wonderful place with so much to do

This is a great property that is near the water and World's End. Between the two there were endless opportunities for walking, running, biking, kayaking, swimming, fishing and exploring tidal areas. The house itself is spacious and accommodating. 10 people can dine together inside or out and sleep comfortably. There are plenty of indoor activities as well--the ping pong tournaments were so fun we never even got around to playing air hockey. Walking across the large lawn to sit and view spectacular sunsets over Hingham harbor every night will be one of many lasting memories. The owners are also very friendly and helpful. We hope to stay again in the future.

Hingham holiday

We really enjoyed our stay in Hingham. The location is terrific. Richard is extremely personable and helpful. Most of the house is lovely. Pots, pans, cutlery, glasses, toaster, towels and bedding all provided. Beds comfortable. Unfortunately the basement has some moisture issues so we only used it for the laundry room. Also the air conditioning and window unit in the upstairs king bedroom is iffy making it not so comfortable in summer weather. The garden was very nice for the children to play in while we sat and chatted on the deck. Easy to access Boston by ferry. Walking to The Worlds End was beautiful. We had a lovely trip….

Graduation stay

Came up with our kids and grandkids for our youngest’s graduation. There were 11 of us, we stayed 5 days. House was beautiful. Plenty of space, including two bedrooms for our daughters who have young children. Beds were comfortable - I slept so well. Back deck and yard are fantastic. The kitchen was well equipped. We cook at home a lot (one reason we rent BNBs) and this house had everything we needed. And plenty of dishes. Owner was very responsive and accommodating. Hot tub wasn’t working (the only reason I rated a four on accuracy of listing), but the part had already been ordered, I’m sure it’s been fixed by now.

We had a wonderful time!

My family and I stayed at this house for the week of Fourth of July. It was special! We thoroughly enjoyed the location, including World’s End for hikes, sunsets and fireworks for the holidays and how close we were to Hingham Square for shopping, dining and the parade on the 4th. We were also close to Nantasket beach and a great seafood restaurant called Jake’s. The closest supermarket has a wonderful selection. The house is great for a large family, with an open floor plan, lovely water views from several rooms, dining for 12, central AC (we had a short heat wave when we arrived), comfortable beds, a game room and board games, whirlpool tub, and everything you would need for BBQ’s on the spacious deck. It is clean and nicely decorated. Richard was great about everything! We had use of kayaks, beach chairs and coolers. Everyone was impressed how nice the house is and loved the quiet neighborhood and peaceful setting. We are grateful to Richard and his family for opening their beautiful home for us to make some lovely memories during this vacation.

Enjoyed our stay

The rental was very nice and with a good location. Neighborhood is very quite and friendly. House had all you needed and we would likely stay again. Need to disclose a few things - the beds are creaky, so much so you are afraid to move in the middle of the night. We highly recommend the owners invest in beds given the cost of the rental. Same for doors, both the front and the back doors need maintenance. We had to keep locking everyone out of the front door and the back would not lock. The hot tub was unusable, we tested the water which needed alot of chemicals but none were available. You also have to supply your own wood. The fridge needs the filters replaced, the ice was a little gross so we bought some. Proximity to the beach is awesome and access to Worlds End is very convenient.

Family gathering/retreat

This was the perfect home for a family gathering after the loss of a loved one. The home and area is quiet and serene. You are literally in the back of the Worlds End nature reservation, but still close to shopping and dining areas. The home is clean and the host, Richard is just a text message away and is very attentive and responsive to your needs as a guest.

We arrived to a welcome gift of beautiful chocolates and a detailed manual. The home is beautiful and sparkling clean and all of our needs were well-met. The most special features (to us) were the view, the hot tub, the large patio and the oversized dining table (perfect for guests). Overall, a perfect place to stay.

Family Wedding - July 2022

Our family gathered at this lovely home to attend a family wedding in July 2022. The home and outdoor space are top-notch - beautiful inside and out. Plenty of room for all with 3 living areas and a fabulous deck. The home is stocked with everything one might need. Appreciated the excellent communication with the owner, Richard. He was quick to respond when I texted with questions. I have lots of experience renting VRBO properties and this is one of the very best. Would I rent this home again? Absolutely!

Wundervolle Woche - tolles Haus

Wir hatten mit 5 Paaren + Kinder eine tolle Woche bei Richard im Haus. Wir können das Ferienhaus definitiv weiterempfehlen. Wir haben uns direkt Wohl gefühlt und wären am liebsten noch länger geblieben. Die Kinder konnten sich im Garten austoben und die Großen gemütlich auf der Terrasse sitzen. Die Bilder entsprechen voll den Gegebenheiten. Es ist ausreichend Platz für alle und die Ausstattung ist sehr gut. Das Einzige, was aus unserer Sicht noch ergänzt werden könnte, ist ein Kinderhochstuhl.

Idyllic location, spacious home, views of the bay

This is the third time my extended family has stayed in this beautiful home. There is room for us all (10 people) at the dining room table, a comfy room to watch movies, hang out, talk, and an outside table for a star lit meal. We loved cooking together in the kitchen. The hot tub was an added plus. The yard is huge with one end looking out over the bay. Every morning our walks were in Worlds End, a unique conservation land a short walk from the house. The house was immaculate and both Richard and Dennis responded immediately if we needed anything. We are already talking about reserving for summer of 2023. You will love your stay here.

Great get away

we loved the house and property, other than the cadence of a couple of the stair cases (caused a few trips and a fall also it would be nice to have a hand rail at the top of the basement stairs). We would definitely come back and would recommend it to others. We loved the views and the spaciousness of your home. It was an incredible place to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary.

A perfect family vacation spot…

This location was perfect for our three generation gathering - the first time that we were all together since the beginning of the pandemic. It was a joyous reunion and the house and setting enhanced this important event. The house worked very well for the adults and children (three toddlers and two pre-teens). Lots of space to relax, an easy kitchen for cooking and a great dining room for conversation and laughs. The deck is sizable and worked well for relaxing, casual meals and a wading pool - which we brought - for the toddlers. We loved World’s End reservation and made use of it every day. It was great for walking, biking and letting toddlers run. We used the kayaks twice. Use was very tide dependent and the kayaks need to be carried across the road. Doable. The kids loved the fire pit! S’mores every night. We also enjoyed being close to a variety of take-out options, supermarkets and ice cream, Nantasket Beach, the carousel and the arcade were a nice added attraction. Finally, Richard as a great communicator and very responsive.

Comfy house with water view

This is a charming house which is roomier than it initially appears. Very well equipped kitchen great for us cause we mostly eat in, even had a coffee grinder which we used daily. House has very comfy lounging chairs in living room and family room and a great deck with gas grill that we made generous use of. Very comfy beds. Sadly the hot tub stopped working early on — owner responded quickly but was unable to get fixed. House has central air but we found some unevenness (cold on first floor, hot on second floor) exacerbated by the significant heat wave during out stay. If a concern you might check in with owner in advance. We never got around to addressing it. All in all, a lovely, comfortable house and a great location.
