Very cute house that's close in proximity to major landmarks in MA. I loved being able to sit out on the deck in the morning before starting my day. The host is responsive and attentive, definitely would book again!

Highly recommend staying here. It was the perfect little retreat. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The owner has information related to the surrounding area available, which came in handy. It was easy to get to and from Salem. I plan to stay at this property the next time we travel through this area.

We really enjoyed our long weekend after Thanksgiving in this lovely cottage, surrounded by trees. Really nicely decorated, spotless, and very warm and cozy. We took wonderful walks at beautiful nearby beaches and explored the surrounding towns of Cape Ann. The host gave us lots of helpful suggestions for nearby restaurants, bakeries, and walks. We would definitely come again!

Absolutely gorgeous property! We came to the area to visit Salem and this house was the perfect oasis after a busy day. Super clean, with extra amenities that we weren’t expecting! Rachel was very responsive to our questions before and during our stay. 5 stars all around!
