The home was clean and met our expectations. There was plenty of room for myself and my adult daughter. The homes furnishings were colonial style with modern touches. We were visiting Salem for her birthday and decided to stay in Marble Head. It was an easy drive to Salem. Marble Head offered many wonderful restaurants as well. Street parking is at a minimum and I purchased a parking spot in a lot a few blocks away which is where we parked all of the time. It was fine except for unloading and loading our luggage which on the check in day was a problem due to rain. Otherwise unless you have limited mobility or can’t navigate steps this home is a great place to stay. I only gave it 4 stars because of the parking.

It was a great place to stay. Easy trip to everywhere Street parking is really not an option in front of the property.

Perfect accommodations for our family's first visit to historic Marblehead. The house is compact but comfortable; staying here fosters the imagination. We're grateful for the nice bathroom when the original inhabitants had outdoor facilities. Grateful for the modern conveniences of microwave, dishwasher and laundry (which work great) in the tiny kitchen. Everything is clean. The living room is comfortable, and our entire family has been spending hours at the end of our busy days curled up on the couches or in the chairs with a book (or smart phone!) We eat as many meals as possible out on the private patio. It's a short walk to a fully-appointed grocery (Crosby's Market) and many historic, lovely neighborhood sites. The stack of local history books is much appreciated as we plan our days as are the tips for dining, site-seeing and travel in the check-in email. Wifi works better than at home, lol. Parking is a challenge, but you can do a ton here without a car thanks to public transportation and walkable places of interest. Very pleased with our stay here. Thank you for having us!

Historic Marblehead is beyond what words can describe. My family and I enjoyed seeing firsthand what some of the aspects of the 1700s/1800s had to offer.

The cottage is perfectly located in the Marblehead Historic District, walk to everything. 1830's house gives a glimpse of what life was like then. Really interesting house. My son said it best: "This is a worn out museum." LOTS of little issues the HoProperty Manager neglects to fix. TV in tiny BR not set up and couldn't be watched, floor lamp broken and didn't work, dryer is broken-can't set the temperature, Internet security issues, cosmetics/nail clipper/tweezers left from prior renters, frayed carpet, dirty pans w/hair stuck to the grease, no ice cubes & broken trays (I bought 4), fabric under couch coming loose,Welcome Package was two small bottles of water and a $4 bottle of wine, etc... I wish I could upload the pictures. Except the backyard no place to comfortably hang out. The LR furniture is worn out, DR table if opened is too large for the room, one side of the table is slanted at such an angle that your plate would end up in your lap. The main bedroom has a king or queen bed. The second bedroom has a trundle bed and you could fit two people in the room. The third (tiny, tiny, tiny) bedroom also has a trundle bed. If you were really desperate you could have two people in the room if they don't mind stepping over each other to get in/out of bed. The "Property Manager" has good people working for her. Vicki, Eli, Maria and Paulo were great. That is why I gave 5 stars for Property Manager Communication. If it wasn't run down we would stay there again.

Cutest little cottage with beautiful color and art! Just a walk away from shops and beach. Short drive to scenic views, museums and history rich destinations.

Good communication with management company. The house is steps away from everything. To Note: The coffee machine is a Keurig. Parking is challenging.

Loved our Marblehead vacation. This VRBO was smack dab in the middle of “old town” and was an easy walk anywhere. Great little destination spot, would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Neighbors are also a super big plus!
