Lovely property is exactly as described and photographed. Family of 4 stayed for a couple of nights while enjoying the local beaches. Took the local bus to Good Harbor beach for an end of day jaunt (fun and free/no parking fee). We enjoyed the backyard and walkability to a couple of local restaurants, including the Lobster. Kitchen well attired; lots of storage. Feels like every foot of space has been used well. Would stay here again.

all rooms and property were perfect to meet our needs. The only problems were the keyless entry to the front door. The code they provided did not work. We called them and they fixed the issue. Also, the smoke detector/alarm system went off unexpectedly. We had to remove the batteries from the smoke detectors to ensure we could get more sleep to quiet the alarm

Windows, Windows, Windows! Great Harbor Views from almost every room.

Lovely, clean, bright & sunny accommodations with high end upgrades to kitchen and upstairs full bathroom. We also enjoyed the well-groomed backyard and garden with wrap around deck. The shed has beach gear and lawn games for your convenience and family fun. Windows galore throughout the home allowing for lots of natural light, garden & harbor views. We all had a great time here and enjoyed our stay in Gloucester.

Quintessential New England Getaway

The harbor home boasts some stunning harbor views from the living room, kitchen, front porch, and the two upstairs bedrooms. Very well kept, clean and comfortable with countless thoughtful touches to make you feel like you’re at a home away from home.

Great cottage, lovely town

0ur group of six (3 couples) really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is cozy and comfortable. We split our time between playing games in the breakfast nook, and exploring Gloucester. We loved all the details, from the small yard/garden/grill to handy shelves and closets and stellar views. We grove to Good Habor Beach every evening for a cold dip in the sea and enjoyed seafood every day.

Blissful Stay on the Harbor

I can’t say enough positive things about our stay on the harbor. The house is just as advertised, convenient parking, very friendly neighbors and a beautiful place to wake up each morning. Rachel is a great host and very communicative. We will be booking a return stay! Travel tip: it’s a great spot to stay if you’re looking to train into Salem and avoid the crowds. Wonderful downtown shopping and dining too!

We've been looking for this place for a long time!

We have been going to Gloucester each Fall for a few years and have always talked about finding a place that we could stay on the harbor. You know, just like we actually did what we always talk about and moved there! But there never seems to be anything right on the harbor, until now! An absolutely lovely place that has a glorious view of the Gloucester Harbor from just about every window. I think the place has just been completely done as everything is new and very tidy. Very high end fixtures and counters in the bathrooms and the kitchen. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. The neighborhood is very quiet and very residential so you can leave your windows open at night if you desire. The layout was just about perfect and the living room is even inviting with comfortable places to sit. We have found this to be a rarity in most of the places we stay. Comfortable furniture generally does not seem to be a priority. It is here. We walked "uptown" every night of our stay to check out the great seafood restaurants in the main part of the harbor. Nice private parking right at the front door. All in all a 5 star stay in an area that is really hard to find anywhere to stay. We will be back!

Beautiful cottage like experience that overlooks the water across the street. We enjoyed drinking our coffee in the front porch and watching the boats. There is a beautiful garden and cute patio in the back. Walking distance to a local coffee shop and it is a great home base for day trips and visits to the beaches and shopping.

The house was charming and quirky and sunny. It was immaculate. The appliances in the kitchen were top notch. Parking was tricky, but I tell you, everyone in Gloucester was so great about letting you have time to pull into small spaces--I think because the streets are tight and everyone understands that. Beds comfortable. Showers were less than upscale but did the job. Great washer and dryer. Adorable, charming backyard with beautiful perennials. We didn't have time to explore the artist colony of the neighborhood, but did enjoy coffee and wine out front looking at the harbor.
I adored the stairway

Mother / Daughter trip

Very cute, comfortable cottage on the bay. Charming and clean amenities and furnishings. Beds were very comfortable. A bit far out from our site seeing. But routes easy enough to navigate. Off road parking was tight, and property was on Main St, so there was lots of traffic, but nothing to defer us from enjoying our stay. Definitely would recommend and stay again given the chance. This duplex cottage was more than satisfactory in every catogory. Everything you could need was there. Love this place!

About the host

Hosted by Rachel Steeg

Host profile image
My family and I have been on the North Shore for the last 10 years and love exploring all that this area has to offer! We love to enjoy Gloucester beaches, or adventure to local coffeeshops and breweries. I'm looking forward to hosting you here in our neck of the woods. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Why they chose this property

East Gloucester is a quiet seaside neighborhood with it's own little arts district called Rocky Neck right around the corner from this home. Here you'll find a few restaurants, art galleries, a local theatre and of course lots of waterfront activity!

What makes this property unique

There is absolutely nothing that parallels these Gloucester Harbor views from almost every room in this home. The owners have spent years lovingly renovating and included all the amenities you can think of - even stocked with beach supplies!
