The house was great. Roomy enough for our family of 9, clean, well appointed. We had everything we needed. The hot tube was great. Location was perfect, close to shops and restaurants. Wonderful stay!
The venue was clean and met our needs for 14 adult guests. The owner (Scott) is responsive in messaging and it’s a great location near the waterfront. That said, we kept thinking how great this place would be in the warmer months, as the snow was a challenge. The street is also busy and drivers do not yield to parking attempts nor pedestrians. Just something to consider.
We stayed here during a relocation to Massachusetts and found it was a lovely and comfortable home with all necessary amenities. The hosts were also incredibly responsive and helped to make the calendar available when we had to suddenly extend our reservation due to a furniture delivery delay.
This house was amazing. Kid-friendly, pet-friendly, well-maintained, clean. There are also many things a quick walk away; Plymouth Rock, The Mayflower 2, downtown, etc. Great trail nearby for walking/running/dog-walking/etc. The host was clear and communicative. Would absolutely stay in this house again and would recommend it to others!
We had a great stay at the Harlow Bishop House. There was some confusion around check-in but it was resolved quickly by the property manager. The house is quirky but comfortable and the outside is wonderful - the deck is a great place for hanging out and we (a group of 11 friends) spent many hours there. The location of the house is perfect as it's walking distance to everything. The wifi was good, the hot tub was nice to have, and the house was well stocked (though we didn't do any real cooking and the kitchen might be a bit tight if you're trying to have multiple cooks at once). Overall, everyone had a great time and we would stay there again.
Cousins Weekend, ages 25-78. Location was perfect, had 13 of us and all were very comforable. Backyard is amazing for coffee and cocktails. Lots of bars and shopping within walking distance, easy to uber also if you get tired. Restaurants were great! You won't be disappointed, anyone having mobil issues would have some problems since bedrooms either upstairs or downstairs.
This was an amazing stay that added so much to our experience in Plymouth. The house was so charming, in a perfect location and had so much character. Beds were very comfortable. Our kids especially appreciated all the bunk beds.
The property was historic but with all the comforts of home. The host was prompt and clear with communications and everything was great. I highly recommend this property!
The house was warm and inviting, plenty of spaces for lots of adults to spread out, play games, and eat all together. The hot tub was an added bonus during a cold week. Steps to the charming downtown and pretty view in the back to the brook.
Our family enjoyed our stay at Harlow Bishop House. The house is spacious and clean as well as conveniently located to most of the historic places at Plymouth. The host are quick to respond & accomodating.
The property is a lovely historic home and we enjoyed our stay very much. Property Manager was easy to work with and the grounds are exceptional. Back deck and patio with access to pretty walking trail. Close proximity to lots of eating establishments and stores.
This was the perfect place to gather with close family and to get ready for our wedding.The location was perfect for walking to and from our downtown venue!
Our stay was great. We didn't have any problems. Everything in town was in walking distance or otherwise not a far drive and everything was entertaining enough for all ages.
