Beautiful place, Excellent for two people. Far enough from Gloucester center to be away from the hubbub. Is on a bus line, and taxi service is available, so that you may enjoy Gloucester without having to worry about parking. There is a small cafe that makes incredible sandwiches, pastry, coffee and breakfasts which is a local favorite. A liquor store is also within a minute walk away. There is a local beach that is within a five-minute walk, and as a bonus there are beautiful sunsets to be seen at the beach. The Vrbo has air conditioning but may not be necessary as a nice breeze can be felt if the screened door on the balcony is left open. We loved this place and will return.

We loved the beautiful little Loft Everything was well thought out to maximize use of this small unit. It was conveniently located close to the Cove Cafe where we picked up breakfast pastries and delicious sandwiches for our beach picnics at Plum Cove, Wingaersheek and Long Beach. The Lanesville Package Store was an easy walk to pick up snacks and wine. Walking down the hill to Lanes Cove was wonderful for sunsets and brought back many memories of time spent there during my early summers. This one is a keeper!

This is our 3rd time staying at The Loft. We love it… great location and easy space to live in. We’ll be back! Diane was totally available with answers to questions and accommodating our needs. We loved walking rain to the Harbor for sunsets and kayaking. The quarry is close for a serene place to swim and the best beach is only 15minutes. Couldn’t be better!

I grew up in central Ma and live in RI now. I have been all over MA for weekend stays but never made it to the North Shore. This was my favorite vacation by far. The loft was in a great location - a five minute walk to a lovely resident only beach where we spent an afternoon and then stopped again at sunset to see the most beautiful sunset I have seen in ages. The actual accommodations were wonderful. Clean, comfortable and in a very safe area. Dianne the host was great and offered a suggestion for dinner at Tonno which was some of the best seafood we have ever had. We loved the loft and we will definitely be back to visit!!

Love this little gem! Clean, cozy, and quiet location. The bed was so comfy too! Glouster has many wonderful restaurants as mentioned in the binder in the loft. We took the recommendations and visited many. They all were very good! Everyone is so friendly in this town. We will be back!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Loft. The unit itself was very comfortable and felt like a well-appointed tree house with its view over the trees out back. Parking was very easy and Diana was very responsive whenever we communicated. We found everything we needed and really enjoyed exploring the area from Gloucester to Rockport and Manchester. We hope to be back.

We just spent three weeks in Gloucester, staying at the Loft. The apartment was beautifully decorated, comfortable, and clean. Diane was very accommodating and accessible. We were a little disappointed that the Loft was located so far from the Harbor area but the description was not misleading. We enjoyed walking to Plum Cove Beach with our family.

This was our fifth visit to 'The Loft' and we consider it our home away from home. Diane does a wonderful job creating a warm and caring environment. Additionally, 'The Loft' location is perfect for visiting Gloucester and Rockport.

My wife and I spent five nights at Diane's home. Everything was wonderful from the time we walked into her home, until the time we left. All the necessities were there, making her home very welcoming. When we return to Gloucester, we will definitely stay at Diane's home again. One suggestion is that the beautiful lake behind your home is hidden by a large tree (I think on your property). If it was trimmed back, the view would be spectacular. Thank you, Diane.

We absolutely loved the loft, it was so relaxing and in such a perfect location. We were close to downtown and were surrounded by beautiful walks, nearby beaches, and cute little businesses. Diane was an amazing host and made us feel so welcome. My husband and I hope to visit Gloucester again soon and will definitely look into staying here again the next time we come out! So glad we found this place!

Lovely unit that is nicely appointed and well stocked. Conveniently located. Unfortunately,. the tree over the deck now blocks the view of the water but otherwise a comfortable place to explore the Gloucester & Rockport areas.

Our 1 bedroom unit was just what we needed to explore Gloucester, Rockport and the surrounding areas. The accommodations were as described with easy access to restaurants, stores, beaches, boating, hiking, swimming and more. Lanes Cove is truly a gem as is this housing.

We were lucky to rent The Loft during the heat wave in Boston. It was the best place ever - access to the Harbor for gorgeous sunsets, sitting on the back deck for a breezy meals, walking to the quarry for cool swims and easy access to the good Harbor Beach - our favorite. We had everything we needed at The Loft which had heat pump air splits for a cool environment. We are definitely coming back there

The Loft Apartment in Lanesville is a perfect location if you're spending time on Cape Ann. The apartment itself is very clean and in a great location. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is newly remodeled. We enjoyed morning coffee and evening cocktails on the balcony. It is very convenient to have the Cove Café (breakfast and lunch), the Post Office, and the Lanesville Package store (incidentals, ready made food, basic groceries, and of course beer/wine/liquor) just a few steps away. Diane was a breeze to communicate with from initial inquiry to checkout. Helpful detailed information about the property and the surrounding area is provided in a notebook. Don't miss a walk down to Lanes Cove (right around the corner) and you can take the Harvey Reservation trail back through the historic Lanesville Cemetery to Washington St. Plum Cove beach is a short walk down Washington St and Diane generously provides beach chairs, a cooler and umbrella for an enjoyable beach visit. We had a great experience at the Loft apartment and can only highly recommend it for a Cape Ann getaway.

Amazing little spot in Lanesville

My fiancé and I LOVED our stay. This is our 2nd consecutive year visiting Massachusetts, and have spent both times at The Loft at Lanes Cove. The space is perfect with a full kitchen, quaint living space and a balcony to relax. The Loft allowed us to come and go as we pleased to go out to Boston, Salem, Rockport, and other places to visit. Diane was responsive when we needed to talk to her :) we can’t wait to continue the tradition of staying at The Loft. This is a must see!

The Loft is a small and extremely cute place to stay and spend a relaxed vacation. The kitchen is well equipped and the location of The Loft is just great. Go eat at the Lobster Pool - lovely experience. We had during our stay 2 extremely hot days I wished we had a little A/C unit in the bedroom, for all other nights the fan was doing the job.We would most ertainly come back!!!

My wife and I really enjoyed our recent stay at The Loft. This place has such a nice location. We loved Plum Cove down the hill! Nice to have a Cafe and convenience store a few doors down.And the interior is so nicely designed with vaulted ceilings and wide plank flooring. We really felt 'at home'. Loved the back balcony too.The host was very easy to deal with via text communications.Definitely plan to return soon if we can find available times!
