We had an event in the area and needed a place close by the venue. It was perfect. Clean, easy access in and out. It was a short stay, but when we return for our events again in the future this is an easy yes, for us to book at this property again!

Great location in Essex

We stayed here for a weekend family event and were very pleased with our choice. The apartment is meticulous, quiet and well appointed. Wish we'd had more time to enjoy the yard, but morning coffee on the porch was lovely. the owner was easily reached and helpful. We'd happily stay again.

Quaint Country Charm!

This house is a beautiful country home, immaculate inside with a pristine landscaped property which is close to downtown Essex with antique shops and seafood restaurants. The inside of the home is furnished with classic antique furniture. The kitchen is bright and modern. There is one newly finished bathroom with a shower, 2 sinks, and stacking washer/dryer. Quality linens and plush towels were provided. We were a party of 6, 3 couples that stayed for one night. There is so much to do in the area that I wish we could have stayed another day. I highly recommend staying at this home!

Response from VrboOwner on 18 May 2024
Thank you for your feedback and review. I am sorry your stay did not live up to the 5 Star review we strive to give every guest every stay. It sounds like you overbooked an entire place with 3 bedrooms and for whatever reason on your end only 2 people used it. It sounds like you were looking for a simple hotel room and that is not this unit. As far as the property and it’s proximity to the town cemetery is concerned this is an odd outlier that has nothing to do with the accommodation you were afforded. I have never had anyone report that someone in the cemetery bothered them. Best of luck to you and your future use of short term rentals.

6 stars out of 5

Where do I even begin. I’ve stayed at other Airb&b before but this has to be hands down the best experience so far. The owner Steve was super great. He goes the extra mile to make sure your experience is absolutely the best. He has a list of places to check out and just the extra little touches they do in the house. The house was clean and spotless, they have extra things to use in the kitchen or just in case you forgot something. I definitely can’t wait to come back and stay here again! I would definitely recommend staying here!!!!! 6 stars out of 5 Anthony
