The cottage was amazing!!!

We have stayed at VRBO rentals many times but this was by far the best stay ever! The house was pristine, the view spectacular, the beds comfy. and well-stocked with anything you could possibly need to cook a meal. Mary was responsive to any of our questions and made sure our time there was the perfect. We are three friends who travel every year to be together for girl's time together and all agree this was our favorite place. Thank you Mary, for making this the perfect retreat!

This property is a gem. The location is spectacular, beautiful salt marshes lead out to the ocean where you can see birds, ships, and even a lighthouse or two blinking in the distance. It was so serene. And the cottage! Charming, updated, and perfectly comfortable, in each and every room. You won’t want to leave!

This is one of the best places we have ever stayed! Having grown up in Scituate, I thought I knew the town well. I was surprised to learn about this little "island" with gorgeous views tucked away in beautiful Minot. Mary is a gracious host who provided detailed instructions AND photos for check-in, a lovely welcome, and even a little history of this family's summer home. This cozy cottage is recently remodeled so everything felt brand new and it is tastefully decorated. The beds are very comfortable with quality linens. The kitchen is well-stocked with cookware, dishes, utensils, and spices. We stayed during the winter so we were not able to use all the wonderful outdoor amenities that are mentioned, such as the deck, shower, and outdoor equipment. But we did see a bald eagle catch a fish! We look forward to a return visit in the summer. It is a special place!

We spent a long weekend at the cottage while visiting nearby colleges for my daughter. The space was so cool, calm and serene. The space is perfectly laid out with every attention to detail. It was just so completely comfortable. We enjoyed being in our own little space within an easy drive of everything and an easy walk to the ocean. The views are just incredible. We will definitely be back!

My Husband and I had the most amazing wedding weekend at the cottage on Treasure Island! We took our first look pictures on the marsh and the few guests who did join us the morning of couldn’t believe the view! It was one of the highlights of our weekend to be able to spend time there and we will never forget it. It was so clean, the rooms are gorgeous, decorated so nicely and the spacious kitchen is such a great place to hang out with the big table. The owner even left us a bottle of champagne which was so sweet. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!! 5 STARS!

The house is charming, also very comfortable and clean. The location is secluded and peaceful with lovely views. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

We loved our stay at the beautiful cottage and enjoyed using the amenities like the kayaks, outdoor shower and fire pit. Thanks for having us, we highly recommend staying here and hope to stay again in the future!

Very convenient location with fabulous sports equipment like kayaks and wagon and beach chairs. Looked like nice bikes in shed but didn’t need as beach was very walkable. Note, limited Scituate beach parking as most require pass, so being able to walk was great. House looks recently recently remodled and was perfectly suited to our family size, though when local family visited for dinner we pulled dining room chairs inside and beach chairs outside to accommodate 6. The dining table was long and could accommodate 6 or more, but with the setting so lovely we wanted to be outside that had only sitting for 4 in any one space. Easy to make do, but be aware. Clever laundry room and 3 bedrooms was nicely set out, but no obvious desk or work set up to use if working remotely, I used a luggage rack with a cutting board as desk when my husband and I both needed to work with privacy in different rooms. Still magical place and would certainly love to go back.

This cottage is right on the marsh and beautifully renovated. You can’t beat the water views and direct access to kayaks and the paddleboard. We cannot thank Mary (and family) enough for your hospitality. We had a wonderful long weekend and can’t wait to return.

Fantastic property. Immaculate, very private beautiful house with spectacular views. Poster quality sunset views from the backyard. Will definitely stay here again.

We rented this cottage along with another house on the property. The cottage has been beautifully restored with all modern amenities. The views could not be any better. The kids kayaked every day and we really didn't even need to leave but did walk to the beach a few days too. The owners and their communication and extra help could not have been better.

A beautiful spot and a beautiful cottage. It was really nice having kayaks to use. We had a great weekend.

Our family completely enjoyed our stay at the 3 bedroom 2 bath cottage on the marsh at Treasure Island. This vacation rental was equal parts comfort and beauty with all the conveniences of home (dishwasher, AC, laundry, wifi). We enjoyed biking to the nearby beach at low tide, kayaking just outside the back door at high tide, and toasting marshmallows in the fire pit in the evening. Close proximity to a grocery store and the thoughtful design touches, such as labeled light switches and outdoor shower, added to our overall enjoyment of this vacation spot. It was hard to leave this very special place.

We spent a weekend in the cottage and loved the beautiful scenery, quite surrounds and all the outdoors. The home is was fully equipped to accommodate all of our needs with our two small children. The owners are extremely devoted to making your experience a lasting memorable vacation. Great communication and quick to act with any concerns. Loved our weekend and all of the memories we built. We would recommend this place and would love to come back in the future.

This place is gorgeous. Get use of space. Beautiful view and sunsets! The details are amazing! Definitely want to come back for some R and R!

Stella Serena is an oasis of calm in a busy coastal area. There's lots of fun to be had up and down the coast. When you've had it, the cottage awaits, its back to the world, the marsh unfurling in every direction, the ocean rumbling in the distance. Drink in all that beauty through the many windows throughout the cottage, or out on the deck overlooking the marsh, or at the firepit. We had a lovely paddle through the marsh to the ocean, in kayaks provided by the owners. The cottage had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. It's beautifully renovated and furnished. Housekeeping is immaculate, beds are very comfortable, and showers are great. The kitchen is very well equipped. We'll be back - if we can squeeze ourselves into the crowd making reservations! This is a truly outstanding property - many thanks!!

Everything was spotless, comfortable and beautifully decorated. We especially loved the gas fireplace in the kitchen, as well as the four comfy swivel chairs in the living area! Beds and linens were also very comfortable Even though it was cool and windy a couple of days, the 180 degree view from inside was magnificent and made us not want to leave the house! Mary was so helpful, quickly responding to all questions and even provided a pack & play, booster seat and toddler dishes for our grandson. Thank you so very much for sharing this gem with our family! We hope to return to the Stella Serena in the future!

Who needs streaming services when you have a vista to the most amazing, dramatic, and ever changing landscape? The home was lovingly restored to perfection. You can feel the love of generations that have spent time in this property. The bedding and rooms were so comfortable and the decor was inspiring. Thanks for allowing us the use of the fire pit and kayaks. We had a lot of fun! The experiences and ambience exceeded our expectations and we all would love to visit again in the future!

The home is in great shape. We comfortably slept 3 adults and could easily have accommodated more. The views were great and had ample room inside when the weather was inclement. The home is an hour from Boston but that worked for us. We took advantage of the owners local recommendations and enjoyed them all. We would return again in the future.

I stayed here in January for my wedding and it was spectacular! The house was recently renovated and the owners thought of everything. The location of this house is right on the salt marshes and the view from every area of the house is simply beautiful. The house was immaculate and the hosts were such a joy to work with. I highly recommend a visit to this property!

A lovely cottage, newly renovated in a very tasteful way. Great use of a smaller space, items were well thought out. The kitchen was equipped with lots of extras, a fully stocked spice cabinet, nice dishes and cutlery, tons of pots and pans, chefs knives. Beautiful linens and comfortable beds, gas fireplace was great for a November stay. Surrounded by exceptionally beautiful views of the ocean and marsh. The nature is just breathtaking. Walk to the beach, minutes to the harbor or N Scituate village. The one strong recommendation I would make to the owners: purchase a comfortable sectional or some style of couch. The 4 swivel chairs are not comfortable when reading, watching a movie, visiting with family or guests, or just enjoying the view. At some point in the day you just want to sit and relax, the chairs were not practical or comfortable. I would highly recommend the property as a lovely retreat setting getaway.
