Quiet neighborhood within walking distance from a small community and near the greater Boston area!

We loved our stay in Melrose. Were able to get to/from all our destinations with relative ease and it was so nice to come back to some place "homey" at the end of the day. Thank you so much.

Place worked out great for family of 5. Salem was an easy 30 minute drive. Just be aware the AC is only 2 window units, one in each bedroom.

The house was clean and had everything we needed. Sarah left thoughtful touches like a coffee/tea station and a large map of the transit system. My kids especially loved playing with the air hockey toy and exploring the play loft. The area is beautiful—I wish we’d had time to explore some of the nature trails. The Main Street was cute and we enjoyed dinner at a local restaurant.

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay at Sarah’s lovely flat. The neighbourhood was peaceful, pretty and walkable, and very convenient for taking transit downtown. The flat was spacious, clean and well equipped (no washer or dryer on site, but there is a laundromat nearby). The beds here comfortable and we really enjoyed relaxing on the large balcony after spending the day exploring the city. The play space in the attic was amazing, if our kids were younger they would have loved it! Like most old homes, it has its quirks but lots of charm. We wished we were staying longer and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

We stayed here as a base when we explored Boston and Salem. It’s a lovely area with a cute business district near by. We used Uber to get into town to avoid traffic and parking which worked out great for us. Lovely old 2 flat in a quiet neighborhood!

Stayed in top floor of two family flat. Cute apartment that had what we needed for the week. Within walking distance to good restaurants on the main street. It was a good location to launch day trips to Boston, Salem and the coastal areas to the north. Enjoyed our stay.

The house was great! It had everything you need. Such a nice home on the second floor, with an awesome front porch to sit on. The town of Melrose is really nice, and so close to Boston. If I am back in the area I would 100% book this place again.
