Ultimate convenience

You really could not get more convenient! A quick walk to the beach. Shops right around the corner if you need anything. A private driveway for parking. The spot is nice and quiet! We stayed with our parents and our children and everyone had an amazing time. The owners were responsive and accommodating. I’m sure we will be back :)

This home work so well for elderly as well as young people

We came here for my oldest daughter wedding at the Cruiseport. I rented this home for my mother aunt and uncle and godmother who has MS. As well as my youngest daughter boyfriend and brother. The house was so wonderful. I was able to have the elderly be comfortable on the lower level while the younger ones stay upstairs. I loved having the separate entrance. My uncle like to go for coffee real early in the am. The house was clean and we unfortunately did not get to use all the amenities like the fire pit. I did walk the beach and it was very close to go down to beach. Thank you so much for allowing us to use your home Lisa and Pat!! I would definitely recommend it!

Great place

We went in winter so this was a spacious spot for us to fit everyone comfortably. We had a few things planned so being so close to stores, restaurants, and surrounding cities was a bonus. Plus the beach is across the street which makes for a peaceful walk on a sunny day. Would definitely book again!

Great long weekend in Gloucester

We 100% recommend this property in Gloucester. Lisa and Patrick were great hosts and were always responsive to our messages. The house was very clean and had everything you needed in a rental. The best part was being down the road from the beach and close to stores and restaurants. Highly recommend. We’ll be back!

Great summer “staycation”!

Travel options are limited this summer (due to COVID-19 precautions) - we only live about 30min from Pat & Lisa’s beach house, but had the full experience of a relaxing beach getaway with our family! This clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated beach house was only 2 min walk to Good Harbor. The kids also enjoyed the short walk to a fantastic ice cream & pizza/sub shop. The downstairs apartment was perfect for our teenage kids. We also loved the large fenced in yard (our Boston Terrier enjoyed running around in safety). Communication with Lisa & Pat was always prompt and friendly. We definitely want to visit again!

Fun beach house

Highlights of the house are the proximity to the beach- a 2 minute walk and the backyard. Nice green grass is highlighted by a fire pit and horseshoe pit.
