Nice place to stay!

Very quiet and enjoyed our stay. Place was clean and had anything and everything you could need! Furniture was not all that comfortable but we weren't there all that much anyway.

Wonderful House, Fantastic Yard

We stayed for the weekend- i took off one star for the hill which honestly was not too bad. We were able to walk everywhere (25k steps for 1 day!!) The best part was sitting at the table in the yard, in the shade, with the breeze and getting to sit quietly and read a book. The accomadations were wonderful and the record player was an unexpected treat. Wonderful spot, great communication which led to an amazing weekend

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.

Convenient to town and cute!

Quiet home with a cute yard for coffee and reading. Very close to downtown rockport and bearskin neck. Very clean and the suit provided dog bowls, towels, chargers and lots of other items for a perfect stay. The AC units worked great. Thanks!

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!

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.

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.

Beds

Great place and location! Super fast communication with host. Everyone enjoyed Only problem was the pull out sleeper couches super uncomfortable. Suggest having maybe foam gel toppers could have them stored rolled up under couches. Definitely would make a difference. Other then had a good time!

Cute charming home, in a quiet setting but easy walk into the main shopping/dining area of Rockport and bearskin neck. Neighbors were friendly. Keep in mind this is an older home that has been updated, the stairs leading to the upstairs bedrooms are a bit steep, easy to navigate for most but maybe not for someone who has trouble with stairs. I really can’t think of anything else I would ‘warn’ anyone about. The house was perfect for our family of 4, dog friendly. Easy to access, great location. Owner/manager was very responsive. Would definitely recommend and hope to return ourselves!!

This home was wonderful! Very clean and its proximity to town had me wishing we had more time to explore the area. We were visiting our son at college and the ability to bring our dog so my son could see him was so nice. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

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!
