About the host
Hosted by Sarah Watson

Hi, I’m Sarah, your vacation rental host by day and ICU nurse by night. I enjoy the process of envisioning what could be, and then making it happen - our vacation rental is my stab at bringing some cozy, eclectic, charming hospitality to our small town. My husband Jordan and I have three young boys - we know how exhausting yet rewarding traveling as a family can be. Our goal is to provide everything you need for a relaxing stay in Salem. Please ask if you have any questions - we are here to help!
Why they chose this property
This house in on a quiet street two blocks from downtown. It is walking distance to local eateries, a tree-lined walking path, and Salem's historic walking tour. The neighborhood is quiet and safe.
What makes this property unique
The Simply Salem Cottage has a nice layout with each bedroom separate from the others, allowing lots of privacy. We renovated it ourselves, with the goal of it being fresh, bright, and easy to maintain. We think you will love it!
