Listing is a little deceiving. Expected the property to be a little more updated. Musty smell when you walk in. Supplies not fully stocked, no ice. No one was happy that we had to wash bedding and towels used. You pay a cleaning fee that should not be our responsibility. We would definitely come back to Marblehead, but will not rent that property again.

This was the perfect house for our trip of 8 adult friends. The house is old and charming but all of the appliances and bathrooms are updated and the beds are unbelievably comfortable. The location was just 20 mins from Salem, a few mins from Stop and Shop and a bunch of other large chain stores, and just three mins from a Dunkin Donuts and liquor store. The neighborhood is pretty and quiet and the pond nearby has a ton of ducks. The owner was very reachable and communicative. Would definitely stay here again. The front door was a little difficult to open given the fact that it was so hot and the wood probably expanded but the side door was easily accessible and opened easily. And we had no problem parking three cars right in front of the house/in the driveway.

We had a very good stay at this property. The house is very large and spacious, great for our 4 teens to spread out in. The kitchen is well stocked and the tv room has multiple couches and chairs to gather and watch movies. It was great that 3 of the bedrooms have tvs in as well, as after walking around all day it's nice to watch tv in bed. It was so lovely to walk around the town. You are 2-3 mins from the ocean, and lots of restaurants and great shops. Getting to places like Salem, or Boston are also easy and not to far way. The one thing I will say is that the couches and chairs in the tv room are very worn out. My suggestion would be to get some covers to update the look, as they are still comfortable. John was very easy to communicate with and very helpful with recommendations.

We rented this house for our daughters wedding which was in Nahant. John was a great host. The house was a perfect space for the wedding party to get ready. The location was great, lots of little shops and restaurants.

We were in town with extended family and this place had plenty of room for us all to spread out. The location was amazing and within a short walk of all the stores, beaches and local attractions. The host was very responsive when we had a few quick questions on where to find things. Also loved all the extras like large beach towns, a number of beach chairs etc as it made us feel like we had some of the conveniences of home. Would choose again next time we are in town!

Charming old home with large family room that accommodated all guests. Unfortunately, a couple of the kitchen appliances did not function properly, making it impossible to cook at the house.

Plenty of living space, and well stocked with equipment and comforts. Bedrooms are fairly small but comfortable.
Walking distance to shops restaurants and bars. Marblehead is quiet, very beautiful. In particular we liked Maddie’s Sail lift for food and refreshments.
John was very helpful and responded quickly.
Ideal house for a large groups

We had a great time celebrating my mom’s 60th girls trip in Marblehead and Salem. This house was perfect for our big group and we loved all the rooms and charming house.
4.8
The house just has the charm of Marblehead….all you would want. So great to have our large group all in one place and not even share a bed. At first, when I booked the girls vacay a year in advance...I was little sad I was in another town instead of Salem as that was the main focus of our trip...BUT, Marblehead ended up being just a little wink from above. We all would've missed this great town had we stayed in Salem. We all want to come back and stay in Marblehead again....and we will absolutely stay here again.
John was super easy to get a hold of.
Only suggestion would be:
to write up little history of the house...we were just curious of it's age etc.

Close walking distance to everything. Crosby’s marketplace perfect for groceries. Tons of towels. Would stay again.

I would've given 5 stars if not for a few things. First, there were no directions on how to use the stove. We didn't figure it out until our last day there. Directions should be somewhere on how to use it. Second, I got a sliver under my fingernail from the decking. It's very old and needs replacing. Lastly, we would have spent a lot more time in the attic if it wasn't so hot. I would recommend putting an air conditioner up there. We stayed at the end of August and it was extremely hot. Other than that, we had a great stay at this historic house! Thanks for having us!

Dad’s Birthday
4 families came together to celebrate Dads birthday (all family). This home was perfect for us to have space each having our own rooms and beds. We cooked, grilled, ate on the deck, took evening walks around the pond, the kids tumbled in the little fenced in yard, walked the historic streets to dinner on the water. Everything about the experience and house was perfect. A true New England weekend in a historic home.. big and spacious, unpretentious. The kitchen stocked with plenty of dishes, beds and rooms with A/C and fans or loads of blankets. Thank you for such a memorable weekend!!

We had a great time. We had everything we needed for a great stay. You cannot beat the location of this home. Marblehead is such a great town and this home puts you right in the middle of it all.

Historic home with lots of space in a great neighborhood
We were a party of 6 (3 adults, 3 kids in their mid-late teens) and really appreciated historic charm and the spaciousness of the house - there was plenty of room for everyone to bed down, and there was lots of space to just chill out and relax. The location is fantastic - having spent many hours of my youth in Marblehead, it was great to be able to walk to most of my old haunts - including Redd's Pond, Fort Sewall, the wharf area, Abbott Hall, downtown cafes, etc. Having off-street parking was great, as parking is at a premium especially in this area of Marblehead.
John was an excellent host - very responsive and accommodating. Since the house had pretty much everything we needed, we didn't need to impose on him for anything - but we appreciated the proactive communications from him to make sure we were comfortable!
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and would rent from John again in a heartbeat.

Spacious home with historic character that easily accommodated our 2 families. Walk through charming neighborhood to access multiple beach points and quick drive to great restaurants and shops. Every part of the process went smoothly and the owners were lovely to chat with.

Wonderful Home and the owner was wonderful to work with!
This home is beautiful and in a gorgeous location. There were 8 of us so everyone had their own bed. There was a table plenty big for us to eat together and the kitchen was large enough to cook in comfortably. We loved our girls getaway weekend. I highly recommend this home as a place to stay.
