We had a great two-week family holiday (4 adults and one busy toddler for the first week and 2 more adults the second week) at this house, which is spacious and conveniently located. Sam was a great host and easily accessible for all our questions and needs. He was very efficient solving any issues as well. The house is very well stocked and has all your bathroom and kitchen needs. We especially loved how kid- friendly it was with a great bunk bed in the room off of the living room and tons of games and toys.
We loved sitting on the porch and watching the beautiful sunsets on the marsh, and enjoyed observing the active bird and wild life (a wild turkey, a small fox, and two deers were some of our neighbors) from the kitchen table. The house is right off of Rte 128 and only couple minutes from Gloucester town center, which made it very convenient to drive to the nearby Cape Ann towns - any town from Salem to Rockport, or Manchester-by-the-Sea to Essex & Ipswich was 15-20 minutes drive at most. There is plenty to do in this area (good museums and historic houses, great beaches [Crane Beach is a must], lots of antique stores [mostly in Essex], whale watching, etc.) and great seafood, including at the Lobsta Land down the street. We had a comfortable stay and cannot wait to be back!
