This is a great option if you're looking for a place to stay that is close to town! The house was clean and comfortable, especially after a long day of walking tours and exploring, and was the perfect size for my husband and I. Rachel communicated extremely well and checked in with us during our stay. I highly recommend staying here and will save this place to my list of places to stay again!

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. We love traveling as a guest and getting to experience new places in unique homes. Some of our favorite spots have been in Sarasota, Santa Barbara, and Montreal. 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

This location is right on Essex Street - the heart of all that happens in Salem! It's just steps away from all the tours, museums, shops, dining, bars and breweries but quietly tucked away as well. We are just a 15-minute walk to the Salem Train Station (easy access to Boston).

What makes this property unique

The property is unique due to its rich historical context and distinctive architectural style, typical of the area’s colonial and Federal-era buildings. Its prime location allows easy access to Salem's attractions, including museums and historical sites related to the witch trials.
