Wow, is what I’ll say! What a beautiful and unique home! My husband and I took both our mothers on a trip of a lifetime! Being that my mother is an antique enthusiast, the home was everything and more for what we wanted to make this trip memorable! The town is so beautiful and unique with amazing food and people! I have a severe shellfish allergy and everywhere I went made sure to take good care of me. We had a blast and one day hope to be back!! Thank you so much

Location is absolute best benefit of this house!! We didn’t have to get in the car once the whole time we were there. The whole housecoat very clean, it had everything we needed and more! The house was so unique and full of charm and character. Very comfortable beds , clean sheets and plenty of clean towels! Our host Andy was very responsive and kept in touch while the time came closer. Every restaurant we ate at was fantastic! We were fortunate enough to have fantastic weather so we hung out at Front beach one of the days. You definitely will not be disappointed if you choose this rental!

Amazing location for Rockport experience

Walking distance to Bearskin neck and beaches, short drive to all Cape Ann has to offer (Halibut Point, Dogtown, etc.). The house is fun and funky and comfortable. We had a great stay!

Thanks Scott for the comment “fun and funky and comfortable” since we certainly have tried to make the eclectic mix of antique and 80’s work as a place. I really appreciated your flexibility and help with the T-stats and heating that I left off. Please consider visiting us again - your family is always welcome. -Andy

Amazing historical house, complete with antique furnishings. Even a piano (I play) with a great "old" tone to it. The backyard and firepit are so relaxing with a great view of stars. You can walk to an amazing breakfast place and restaurants, as well as the water. Perfect!

Thanks and so thrilled that your stay was pleasant with some take-away memories. We appreciated your open and frequent communiques which always helps. Please accept our invite to stay again in the future. The piano came with the house and we have 50-100 player piano scolls that came with it. Your playing it and gracious descritpition are encouraging us to to take the piano more seriously. I am going to see if it can be revived to play the scrolls.

The location of the home was perfect close to everything in Rockport the space was great and a nice backyard and deck. The kitchen was pretty well equipped.The supplies were great, plenty of towels and paper products The washer and dryer was small and a few of the upholstered furniture pieces were shredded and ripped I guess due to the fact that they allow pets We were there for several very hot days the rooms that had AC were fine, but the two bedrooms, kitchen and the hall and bathrooms that did not have ac were quite hot. There were several fans that we used to help a little bit but they were noisy Nd not in top-notch condition. There was a portable air-conditioner that would have helped in the family room but that was broken and wasn’t replaced. All in all if you came in cooler weather and you needed a lot of space and wanted to be downtown it’s fine.

Family vacation

Great location walkable to shops and restaurants downtown as well as some beaches. Some challenging stairs or ceiling heights for larger/taller adults, however the uniqueness and charm outweigh the tight spots. My kids thought they were exploring Hogwarts and they loved it.

Rockport Family Vacation

This was a great house for a large group; we were nine with 4 kids. There was plenty of room to spread out and lots of space to cook and prepare meals. It was lovely to be within walking distance to everything in Rockport. The home itself was charming and had a cottage-y, well-loved feel.

Thanks Rebecca and family for the wonderful review. We are so glad you were able to find comfort in our home. We loved how you were able to turn the walk-in closet at 3rd floor into a kid’s sleeping retreat - a great solution👏 By-the-way, you all get the award for taking composting seriously which is most appreciated. Lastly, our Cottage tenant, Beverly, really liked how friendly everyone was. Thanks again for choosing Partridge House.
