Boston Marathon

Enjoyed being out of Boston and being close to public transportation to get to Boston. Know it was going to be hectic but all the people running in the race and everyone cheering all throughout the course was absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing your house and the history of it.

Getaway weekend

Located right across from the water. The house was perfect for our needs as a family of three. The kitchen was well stocked including spices, condiments, coffee, and some food items. The host was very responsive to every message.

The History!

This was a great stay. We travel often and always use VRBO. We loved the quirky floors of the old building. Took me back to my childhood in my grampas farm house. Then when I learned the history of the property, I fell in love. Definitely recommend for families

We had the best time here. House was excellent and the owner was amazing. She has a lot of stuff there you can do. Kayaks, fishing poles, metal det. And so much more. We had a blast looking for shells and seaglass when the tides were out. Great views as well!! Would definitely stay there again.

Great spot overlooking the ocean

Traveling with my mother and young adult niece, we choose this spot to have a quiet, safe spot to call home base after touring the city. This spot met the mark! All the essentials were provided, and it was super easy to call in a grocery delivery or food order when needed. Transport into town via Uber was convenient enough and still cost significantly less than a rental car for our stay would have been. And the view and access to water are added bonuses. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, safe spot that is convenient to surrounding areas. We will return!

Long weekend getaway

Overall the property was perfect for out needs. Amazing location righr acroas the street from a small beach. Room for our 3 kids. Close to the ferry and Boston. Only cons are in the listing it says toys, video games, childrens kitchen things supplied. They are not. No body wash. And my husband had to run to home depot to fix one of the twin bedframes the first night there and repair the door knob to the master bedroom. O erall great experience. Amazing responsive kind host.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

You can't be closer to the water. Walk the kayaks across the road and launch right in front of the house. Fish, or go for a swim.
I say 5 person comfortable limit but I have had families bring a couple of extra kids and throw them on the futon. No problem.

What makes this property unique

You can have a beach vacation and also be able to enjoy the rich culture and history of Boston.
