Lovely property is exactly as described and photographed. Family of 4 stayed for a couple of nights while enjoying the local beaches. Took the local bus to Good Harbor beach for an end of day jaunt (fun and free/no parking fee). We enjoyed the backyard and walkability to a couple of local restaurants, including the Lobster. Kitchen well attired; lots of storage. Feels like every foot of space has been used well. Would stay here again.

Wonderful place

Went with 3 Women for a girls weekend. We had an amazing time. The house was perfect, spotless with all top end amenities. An adorable back yard and a little front porch to watch the harbor sunsets! Beds were super comfy, and enjoyed taking a jacuzzi bath!! Definitely want to return!

Windows, Windows, Windows! Great Harbor Views from almost every room.

Lovely, clean, bright & sunny accommodations with high end upgrades to kitchen and upstairs full bathroom. We also enjoyed the well-groomed backyard and garden with wrap around deck. The shed has beach gear and lawn games for your convenience and family fun. Windows galore throughout the home allowing for lots of natural light, garden & harbor views. We all had a great time here and enjoyed our stay in Gloucester.

Great cottage, lovely town

0ur group of six (3 couples) really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is cozy and comfortable. We split our time between playing games in the breakfast nook, and exploring Gloucester. We loved all the details, from the small yard/garden/grill to handy shelves and closets and stellar views. We grove to Good Habor Beach every evening for a cold dip in the sea and enjoyed seafood every day.
