Little River+Annisquam River access; rivers views from screenporch, deck, KingBR

Wake up to views of saltmarsh & two rivers... sip/eat/read/doze/play by those same views on your breezy screen porch, open-air deck, and grassy oak glade in your private yard. Kayak/SUP the tidal rivers; step down the lane to swim and boat from the quiet boat ramp on lake-like, tidal Little River, leading out to the Annisquam River, north to Wingaersheek Beach and south to Gloucester Harbor. <5mi to Wingaersheek and Good Harbor beaches (parking pass online at gloucester-ma.gov). Savor all that Cape Ann has to offer: Schooner sails, live music, arts scene, world-class dining, festivals, deep-sea fishing, whale watching, and more - then come home to relax on the screenporch, grill on the deck, eat and lounge together overlooking the marsh and lights on the river, then sleep to the breezes off the river. Repeat.
A returning guest writes:
"Our family and friends savored every moment at this ultimate Gloucester hideaway. Spectacular views of the rivers from the screened-in porch or master suite upstairs were heavenly. Plenty of room to dine, relax, or launch the kayaks. And just down the lane was a jetty and small beach perfect for swimming, lounging, or boating. We were so content in this beautiful private haven and lushly decorated home and environs that we barely got to Gloucester and Rockport. There was a place and activity for each of us and the short commute to the Boston area allowed for impromptu and return guests! Our first time on a Vrbo expedition and we booked our return trip before we left!"

A little bit of heaven.
Beautiful view. Lots of room to enjoy the house. We really enjoyed the short distance to so many special places Rockport, Rockyneck, Salem and Boston. Used the kayaks and enjoyed the river. Looking forward to visiting again.

Beautiful, clean, lots of room, host is easily reachable and very nice. This is our 5th VRBO vacation and we thought last years Cape Cod rental would be tough to beat but this one did.

Great House, Great views of the water, Great location
We enjoyed our stay in Gloucester, MA. Very comfortable and spacious house. Waking up every day and watching the tides rolling in was an added treat. Great location, close to downtown Gloucester and the waterfront. We took the Kayaks out on the water one day and was a great experience. Would highly recommend this house.

Gloucester wedding weekend
We had a really wonderful stay at the Gloucester Riverside Retreat House! Our host was super responsive and the checkin process was a breeze. We had 8 friends in town staying here for a wedding nearby and we couldn’t have found a cozier spot to house everyone. There were beautiful views of the river, and a nice screened in porch to enjoy them from. The interior was very clean and updated. The place feels like a real home, not just a McRental like a lot of places I’ve stayed. The kitchen is nice and big, there’s a cozy living room, and all the beds were super comfortable. We took their kayaks on the river, which was really nice. Great place to cozy up if the weather is rough, or enjoy the area if it’s sunny!
