A lovely place to stay! Phil was incredibly nice and helpful, with great local recommendations (I especially enjoyed the trails through the cemetery across the street down to the rocks - go for the sunset!).

Had a great stay at Phil's place! Very cozy apartment with beautiful views of the fall forest out the window. Phil was super helpful and provided us with an iron since we were attending a wedding. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful property, excellent location, just a short walk from the ocean, the Lobster Pool, and Halibut Point State Park. The accommodations include a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchenette, which were perfect for a weekend stay in the area.

Overall a clean and very quiet rental close to everything you need. My only "complaints" would be the pillows are very flat and there was no hand soap in the bathroom. It is small, but has everything you need as you arent spending a lot of time there anyway. Nice walkable road down to the beach even if you do have to go through the cemetery. You need to like rustic, and not mind a slow ght damp smell.

This was fantastic for my husband and I during our short stay. Phil met us at check in and was wonderful to interact with. The lodging is very small, but it was clean and quiet. We will definitely stay here again next time we’re in the area

The hosts were easy to work with. We knew going in that the apt was small. The sleeping area was fine but the bathroom for my 6’2” husband was very tight. The bathroom barn door did not close all the way and the outside area was not well maintained.

This location is truly special - so quiet, nestled in lush greenery, and minutes to the coastline. Fresh flowers in the room were a nice touch. Phil provided excellent instructions for finding his home easily.

Absolutely beautiful cut flowers were in the room to enjoy on arrival with a comfortable bed, cold mini-split air conditioner, and an adequate kitchenette with a dorm-sized refrigerator. The toliet and bathroom sink space were cramped together with a bathroom barn-style door that would not close completely because of a problem with the track and the entirr space had a strong odor like mold.

I had a great stay :) Phil was very welcoming, friendly and hospitable. Took some great walks and had a nice meditation spot by the creek. Despite owners being on the property, I never saw them unless I needed something. They made it feel very private and that was very appreciated.

The only challenging thing was the weather! Phil was a fine host; the location is lovely. It is not at all accessible, so keep that in mind. We were in Gloucester to explore the outdoors, and Phil had a well-stocked 'things to do' binder, which we used.
