We stayed at this house for a week in summer 2021 and I was eager to rebook it for our trip to Rockport this year! We stayed 10 nights and loved every minute of it—just like last time!
I travel with my kids (12&14) and it is such a perfect location. We walk into town multiple times a day (the Mill Pond and cemetery path is our favorite!). The beds are very comfortable and the house offers all the amenities you could need. I can’t tell you how amazing it is to put on a few of the provided backpack beach chairs, pack a cooler, and walk 5 minutes to the beach—avoiding the hassle and costs of traffic and beach parking!
The kids are already planning our next stay at this property! Erin is a friendly and quick communicator as well.

The home is absolutely lovely! Very spacious for 5 adults. The updated kitchen has anything you would possibly need for “stay in” meals. The gas grill has all the utensils too. Bedrooms are spacious in size. The bathroom is gorgeous with a nice walk in shower! The outdoor back patio is perfect for an afternoon read or cocktails outside. We loved the walk ability to Rockport beaches, village and Bearskins Neck. Check in very easy too!

This property is as advertised...clean, private, safe. Short walk to the beach and the shops of downtown Rockport, train station is a 2 minute walk. There were three adults in our party but room for two couples and two singles - more space than we needed. Every item and supply you might want for a day at the beach or cooking a meal was provided. Would recommend and stay again!

We have stayed at six different places in Rockport, and this set up is the best.
Great host with a well equipped home, good location, short, walk into town, and good parking.
Thanks for having us.

We stayed here for a couple of weeks while our house renovation was being completed nearby. The property is wonderful, clean, spacious, and well equipped. Being locals, I can say it is in a very central area, with easy access to downtown Rockport, the train to Boston, and the beach. Erin the owner was wonderful to work with. We would recommend this property to anyone wishing to enjoy the beauty of Cape Ann!

We had a very enjoyable visit. The welcome package was well used and enjoyed. The one bathroom was workable but rough on people sleeping on the second floor.
Overall, the 4 of us enjoyed the house.

The location of this house was perfect for the slower paced vacation we were hoping for traveling with a toddler. We were able to easily walk down to Front beach, Bearskin Neck, and many excellent restaurants and shops. It was also a short drive away from having awesome day trips to Ipswich, Gloucester, and even Salem. For those who love to visit in larger towns and cities, but prefer to unwind and relax outside of them, this location was absolutely perfect! We couldn't have asked for a better place, location, or host. We look forward to staying again!

Cute and quaint house with a pretty backyard. So close to town and the train, as well as the beach. The kitchen was really well equipped and you can easily cook a big meal, plus there is a grill in the backyard. The host was fantastic about communicating with me when I left something behind. Highly recommend this comfy home.

Our second stay at this perfect family house was magnificent! We literally felt as comfortable as if we were home. We cook virtually all our meals. The kitchen couldn’t have been better prepared. While not huge , the house offers privacy alongside family gathering spaces simultaneously.
Great stay!

Myself and my two school aged children spent a week here and enjoyed ourselves so much! We walked into Rockport multiple times a day to go to the beach, for meals, to shop, etc. The house is in such a great location. We all agreed the beds were extremely comfortable and the rest of the home was everything we needed. Neighborhood was quiet and friendly. We would easily choose to stay here again!
The owner, Erin, was lovely to communicate with. I had to re-schedule our reservation last year due to Covid, and she was happy to book us under new dates and answered any questions I had!

Best in Rockport
My two sisters and I, along with my husband spent three days in this lovely home. The kitchen was huge, and stocked. Erin even left us a gift bag of Dunkin Donuts coffee, sugar, creamers, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion! There were four bedrooms, a large screen TV, plenty of books, games (which we played), and the house is within walking distance to the train, Dunkin Donuts, and the wonderful Rockport street festival (in the quaint little town with shops.) Erin's house was so warm, inviting and clean. We will definitley be back. Thank you Erin!

We had a wonderful week
The house was clean, well equipped and convenient to nearby attractions in Rockport and Gloucester. Front Beach is a beautiful spot and less than half-a-mile away. The backyard is larger than it looks in the pictures and very private. There are plenty of beach chairs and towels. The spacious kitchen is well equipped and includes ample seating for dining at the table and breakfast bar. The washer and dryer are quiet and efficient. My wife, dog and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The cottage was beyond lovely! Perfect location (though the street is a bit busy). We loved walking to Millbrook Meadow and into town. Would definitely book again!

Beautiful home!
We knew from the moment we walked into the house that we chose the right place. We could not have felt more at home. The house was lovely. Erin made sure we had everything we needed and more. The back yard was really and added blessing. We’ve been coming to Rockport for close to 20 years and this home at 6 Granite Street was the best! Can’t wait to stay here again. My only complaint would be that I didn’t book the home for more days.

Great stay in Rockport
We were so pleased when we got to this house. It is exactly how it appeared online. It is very quaint. Kitchen is updated and a great size, plenty of places to sit, stainless steel appliances and all the amenities. All you need to bring is the food. The living room is comfortable and stylish. Great tv, all the books and games you can ask for. Four bedrooms - The bed in the room off the kitchen is perfect for kids. Its very soft. The master bedroom bed was so comfortable, sheets great quality, big size. Steps upstairs are steep and small but fine if you take your time and hold on. I wouldn't suggest putting elderly or small children in those bedrooms. Bedrooms are big and comfortable just watch your head in the hallway. There is only one bathroom. We loved all the Honest products in the house. We even got the sweetest and thoughtful welcome gifts when we arrived. Backyard was great with a table and chairs, chairs for the beach and there is BBQ. In the master bedroom you can hear cars passing on the main road outside the window but I had no problem sleeping because there are very few cars that pass later at night. We walked to beach, restaurants and all the little shops. The commuter rail is a block away from the house. Rockport is absolutely beautiful. The beach has bathrooms. It was a fantastic weekend spent with my family. I highly recommend it.

Property Was Clean and Neat - with good central family areas
We found our VRBO to be clean and to have good central family areas in the Living Room and Kitchen. Convenient to downtown Rockport and Metro station if you want to hop on and head to downtown Boston without the hassle of traffic.
House is close to main road so there is some noise in the front bedroom but we use a white sound app on our phone when we go places that more than covered the noise.
Back yard is nice with table, chairs and umbrella *(plus bug spray). Nice touch

Lovely property and fantastic location!
This home was absolutely charming and immaculate! The property was nicely remodeled, well stocked with linens and kitchen essentials, and had so much space. It was just 3 of us and a dog, but this house could easily accommodate 6 or so. The backyard is lovely. The location was also fantastic! Two beaches within walking distance. You could probably walk downtown also, but we drove, parked nearby and walked. Be aware the beaches are only dog friendly after September 15, but Halibut state park is a short drive, a must see and dog friendly. The host was incredibly responsive, and the unexpected toiletries were an absolute treat!
