Loved the space. Bed was comfortable. Definitely would not have worked if I was taller than my small 5’5. So close to everything and was really convenient.Only issue was actually finding the place in the dark. Luckily my uber driver helped me, but the house number isn’t on the door or anywhere that I could find. The directions sent were unhelpful. The only saving grace was that it was the only building with a third floor and I knew it was a third floor loft.

Perfect location

The Crows Nest is superbly appointed - every amenity to enjoy our stay in Bear Neck Rockport. Matt was so helpful and super responsive to any needs we had. Views over the harbour are peaceful and relaxing. For any future guests - the Crows Nest is on the 3rd floor and accessed via a narrow, steep staircase. But I must emphasise that we had no problems and we are 73 and 70 this year.

Location is AMAZING! Apartment is spacious, clean and has all you need and more. The only issue we had was we needed to request more toilet paper as we stayed 5 days and 1 roll was not enough for us. Highly recommend! We will definitely stay here again.

Our stay was fabulous!

The Crows Nest is an open, bright comfortable loft. The views from every angle were breathtaking. The location was perfect for shopping, dining, beach going, and relaxing.

Perfect cozy nest by the sea!

The loft is historic and beautifully done. Very comfortable, and the location is central to everything in Rockport. I walked 15 minutes from the commuter rail station and didn't have a car, and had no problems. Lots of convenient amenities like toiletries and coffee provided. Love the skylight windows that provide both light and a nice breeze

The loft was as advertised. As an older couple (53,62) the only thing we found to our displeasure was the TV. Unless you had your own streaming apps and knew your passwords you were not watching much.

Stunning Nest with Wonderful Views

The care the owners took in turning the Crow's Nest into a breathtaking retreat is evident in so many ways, from the blend of the old beams and floor to the very modern decor and amenities. There's a lovely feel of being high above Bearskin Neck with views out the generous windows and skylights. Truly a special place to soak up the true Rockport experience. Though the kitchen is described as minimal, we found it had everything anyone would need. There is a wide open, spacious feel to the whole place and it might be noted that there is not a bedroom per se, but rather 2 queen beds tucked under the eaves; some might find it difficult to sleep two people comfortably in either bed. Overall a delicious experience!
