We recently returned from a week at the beach and loved our time at the cottage! It’s a great place to get away, relax at the beach, or just chill out on the private patio. The cottage is a short walk from the beach, which was never crowded (you’re pretty far from any of the public access points) and you’ve got a great view of the boats leaving and entering Newburyport Harbor. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and close to restaurants, shopping, and local attractions- everything we were looking for in a vacation spot. We would definitely book again!

I grew up in Newburyport and spent a good part of my summers hanging on Plum Island -all wonderful memories. My husband and I were looking for a relaxed place to stay near the beach - and for me it was important that it had that summer cottage feel . We found this home and fell in love - we booked for 6 days and actually asked if we could stay an extra day . The cottage has a spacious front porch great for reading and people watching in the evening . This is really a sweet place reminding me of the places I visited as a kid - spacious kitchen - cozy living room and two comfortable bedrooms . It is a short walk to the beach - which during the week we were there was never crowded - the beach is pristine ! We were walking distance to Mad Martha’s and the Plum island Kitchen- a slightly longer walk to the Beach coma - and to the point for beautiful sunsets . There is a sweet deck in the back with plenty of shade great for hanging out after the beach . We had everything we needed and honestly hated to leave !

The property was a complete dusty, dirty disappointment. It was as if the owner just wanted to make a quick buck. She left a dirty rundown cottage with all of her belongings including undergarments, tax documents and a fridge, freezer & pantry of expired food.

The house was perfect and Nina was super kind and helpful. We can wait to return!

It was an easy process from the start. The fundamental description and location were ideal for our needs. It was exceeded our expectations. The owner was thorough and gave excellent suggestions for the area and activities.

This house has so much character. It was a step back through time. We loved the charm and you don't have to bring anything but yourself and your clothes. Nina has everything there that you could ever dream of. She even left a little care package with memories of Plum Island. The cottage is literally a block from the beach., if that and the beach is so wide you can find your own piece of paradise. Nina gave the BEST suggestions of things to do and places to eat. Thank you for sharing your home with us and a piece of island life. We can't wait to come back.

Wonderful beach. Comfy cottage made us feel at ease. Our stay was most enjoyable.

This little gem was exactly what our family needed. A home away from home and a short, pleasant walk to the gorgeous, uncrowded beach. The house had everything that we could have ever needed. Private, clean and cozy. This place has a special place in our hearts now. We will definitely be back!
