Comfortable, quiet, private and close to beach and shops and restaurants. Short drives to explore Gloucester, Ipswich and Salem. One hour nerve-racking drive to and from Logan Airport.

Mixed review.

Loved this unique cottage with art history loaded with classic Latin painted tile work. Just short walk to beaches and downtown and park. Needs yard overgrowth cleanup and pesticide improvement.

Convenient location

Inside of house was clean and served our needs well. Location was great, close to a nice park and Bearskin Neck. Outside was not what I call lush, you can barely see the house from the road. New outside photos should be taken.

Comfort at its best

Better than a five star hotel, the cottage has spacious rooms, warm, lively decor throughout, beautiful bathrooms, a well-equiped kitchen and comfy sofas and chairs. The beaches and main street of Rocport are just a short walk away. We would rent this place again and again!

Great Stay in Rockport

This is a wonderful small house in Rockport. It's in a very quiet location, but within easy walking distance to Front Beach and the shops on Main St. and Bear Skin Neck. The house has a nice useful kitchen and comfortable living room. We had a very good stay here. There are 2 small parking spaces.

This is walking distance to the beach, wharf, and charming Rockport. The parking is tight but this little house is so charming and eclectic you won’t mind at all. Beautiful curated decor and so much light make this feel like home.

Great location and fun decor.

We loved the location and how close it was to the town! We walked there and it was close to the beach as well! We loved the eclectic decor and the size was just right for us- 6 adults and a dog. One side note is the walls were thin, so if you’re an early to sleep, or like to sleep in, keep that in mind - or take the master which is a little separated from the other rooms. I appreciate the check ins from Vacasa about how the stay was going and how the cleanliness was upon arrival. They also were helpful in getting someone to come over for a maintenance issue(sink clogged because of electrical issue with the garbage disposal) - although there wasn’t anything he could do.

Great for a few days in Cape Ann

The house was a good size for our family of 5 plus dog. (We chose the place because we could bring our dog.) The location was convenient. The house was clean and comfortable and with fun decor. We were able to make a few meals in the kitchen. We had no complaints.

Somewhat eccentric interior design with lots of space, and comfy bedrooms and baths. A great kitchen tops it all off. We did not find the busy decor off-putting, but some might.

It was well located to the T which coupled with Ubers that was our transportation. Every place we visited was close. Rockport, Marblehead and Boston all close by thanks to the trains. Our host Michael is very pleasant and interesting. I hope to have a beer with him sometime. We will be back I am sure of that.

Rockport

The property was beautiful and included all that we needed. However, the previous guest filled the exterior garbage cans to the top and the garbage was not disposed of during our 5 day stay. We had to bring our trash out each day and dispose of it ourselves which was a nuisance.

Graduation trip

I'd 100% stay here again. Location was just what I was expecting. The house all all the amenities necessary. My only complaint and I wouldn't even call it a complaint, is the yard was a little overgrown to where you couldn't access the second parking spot. Over-all that in no way took away from my experience, we only had one vehicle so there was no need to have access to the other parking spot.

Nice house, good location, but…

We enjoyed our pet-friendly accommodations, and had a great stay on Cape Ann, but I’ve gotta point out a few issues: • Previous renters garbage/recycles were left in the bins in the kitchen, • No extra toilet paper, • No yard at all - grill & dining table is on the unkept/overgrown driveway

Pretty cottage

I have stayed here before. We do love it . Kitchen is great. Not the best rental for Summer months. There is no yard but we go in October. Please update the Ki g bed in the Master bedroom. It lays on like a board or something and needs a box spring. The yard needs serious updating. Very overgrown and in need of some maintenance. Be careful walking over the rocks , there’s no clear path. Only parking for 2 cats . Very hard to maneuver in. Overall the place is a great location to stay. Half a mile to the train and the beach. Don’t forget to go to Bearskin Neck!!

Lovely place - great location!

We love this location. The house is comfortable and has so many charming features. Our only major complaint is that the outside garbage bin was not emptied from the prior renters and there was no place to put garbage outside. This also made the small area that was represented as usable outdoor space extremely unpleasant. I communicated this at least 4 times to the host. They kept responding thanking us for sharing that info but it was not taken care of. I am actually wondering if I was communicating with an actual person since the responses seemed quite automated. Other than that, the inside was clean and comfortable.
