Quaint and comfortable single family house on a small and quiet tree-lined dead end street. 2 bedrooms and 2 living room areas with pop-up full size (almost) sleeper sofas plus an additional futon in the small entry room/enclosed porch area.

Easy 7-10 minute walk to beautiful Front Beach, Bearskin Neck, Shops and Restaurants.

Linens, bath & beach towels are provided and there is a washer & dryer in the kitchen. Regular/standard drip coffee maker and kuerig coffee maker are available as well as an air fryer, crock pot, coffee grinder and small George Foreman indoor grill. There is a propane/gas grill outside. (We will provide the tank but it may need to be filled before use).

We are so excited to share our work in progress with you. We have been coming to Rockport for many, many years and it is our favorite place. We hope you love it here as much as we do.

Charming Village Cottage

Delighted to stay in this small village antique, walking distance to the village coffee shop and to Bearskin Neck. The place was clean and cozy, and as described in the listing. The bathroom is small but functional, and the stairs are super steep but the handrail makes them safe. Our host was responsive and kind. We'd stay here again!

This was an excellent place to stay that was close to everything in Rockport. Short drive to Salem and Gloucester. Plenty of space for our group of 5. Very quiet and felt completely safe in the neighborhood.

Blackburn Challenge racers

A cute place and convenient for a 2-night stay with our little dog. Well-appointed and comfortable. We did not hang out a lot at the property but it seems a pleasant spot for a small group that is ok with simple pleasures — not fancy but perfectly nice!! We were comfy with individual room ACs, and so thankful for coffee provided!

Lovely, easy stay

This was a fantastically easy stay in Rockport. We came to town to visit friends and this was such an ideal location in Rockport as well as proximity to Gloucester. The main bed was firm- very comfy for me! A great night sleep. There was everything you could want in the kitchen for a longer stay, too. Good hot water in shower! Some cleanliness issues, which did not bother us for such a short stay- just some dust/ pet hair, and shower grout issues- not a big deal. Communication with Malikkah was so easy and she made this such a comfy, safe stay. Unlike other places we have stayed, the check in and check out was SO easy. Grateful for this spot. Definitely recommending to others.

Great space and location!

Our family of 5 had plenty of space in a cozy setting! Great communication with host and we felt very welcome. It wasn’t overly hot while we were there but the window units on the main floor and in each bedroom was still appreciated! The easy walk to Bear Skin Neck and the beaches was the unanimous family favorite!

Quaint and Cozy

We loved our stay here. The location was perfect for walking to Bear Skin Neck, the train station, and restaurants. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. The house was clean, cute, and supplied with everything we needed. After a long day of exploring the area, which is beautiful, we enjoyed playing the games provided and listening to some records. It was a very nice home away from home. Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy and Convenient

The little house in Rockport is cute and very cozy - my husband felt a little cramped in the bathroom and negotiating the stairs. The location is terrific - quiet yet close to whatever activities one might wish to do. Grocery shopping is convenient as well. The addition of the washer and dryer will be a nice addition as would an ironing board and iron.

Sweet House

This house was in a great location in a quiet street but close to town. It was decorated beautifully and well stocked with everything you’d need. Some things were a little trickier with little kids- steep narrow staircase to the upstairs, high dining chairs, and lots of decor/breakables within toddler reach. Overall though it’s a cute little house in a good location for exploring Rockport.

Family trip

The property was smaller then expected. There was what looked like mold around the seal of the tub. The house was very cold when we arrived so I called and emailed the host and didn't get a respond. The area was fantastic so if you can over look the rest it was a good stay.

Excellent location/ center of Rockport/clean and well appointed - MY DOG LOVED IT too!

Excellent location just up the hill from Bearskin Neck. I cannot fault a single thing about the accommodations provided except to say, this is not a house for people with mobility issues, as the bathroom is downstairs and the bedrooms are upstairs and the staircase is rather steep. These are things the property owner cannot change and otherwise, the house is a bargain for 6 people. A family with young kids, especially would love it.
