all rooms and property were perfect to meet our needs. The only problems were the keyless entry to the front door. The code they provided did not work. We called them and they fixed the issue. Also, the smoke detector/alarm system went off unexpectedly. We had to remove the batteries from the smoke detectors to ensure we could get more sleep to quiet the alarm

Beautiful cottage like experience that overlooks the water across the street. We enjoyed drinking our coffee in the front porch and watching the boats. There is a beautiful garden and cute patio in the back. Walking distance to a local coffee shop and it is a great home base for day trips and visits to the beaches and shopping.

The house was charming and quirky and sunny. It was immaculate. The appliances in the kitchen were top notch. Parking was tricky, but I tell you, everyone in Gloucester was so great about letting you have time to pull into small spaces--I think because the streets are tight and everyone understands that. Beds comfortable. Showers were less than upscale but did the job. Great washer and dryer. Adorable, charming backyard with beautiful perennials. We didn't have time to explore the artist colony of the neighborhood, but did enjoy coffee and wine out front looking at the harbor.
I adored the stairway

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.

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.

Mother / Daughter trip

Very cute, comfortable cottage on the bay. Charming and clean amenities and furnishings. Beds were very comfortable. A bit far out from our site seeing. But routes easy enough to navigate. Off road parking was tight, and property was on Main St, so there was lots of traffic, but nothing to defer us from enjoying our stay. Definitely would recommend and stay again given the chance. This duplex cottage was more than satisfactory in every catogory. Everything you could need was there. Love this place!
