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!

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.

Wonderful property
The property was lovely, well cared for and lots of light. Parking is a little tight, but completely doable for two vehicles. Unfortunately the weather was blustery so we didn't enjoy much time outside, but the location was easy to get around from. We recommend it with no reservations!

Blissful Stay on the Harbor
I can’t say enough positive things about our stay on the harbor. The house is just as advertised, convenient parking, very friendly neighbors and a beautiful place to wake up each morning. Rachel is a great host and very communicative. We will be booking a return stay! Travel tip: it’s a great spot to stay if you’re looking to train into Salem and avoid the crowds. Wonderful downtown shopping and dining too!

We've been looking for this place for a long time!
We have been going to Gloucester each Fall for a few years and have always talked about finding a place that we could stay on the harbor. You know, just like we actually did what we always talk about and moved there! But there never seems to be anything right on the harbor, until now! An absolutely lovely place that has a glorious view of the Gloucester Harbor from just about every window. I think the place has just been completely done as everything is new and very tidy. Very high end fixtures and counters in the bathrooms and the kitchen. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. The neighborhood is very quiet and very residential so you can leave your windows open at night if you desire. The layout was just about perfect and the living room is even inviting with comfortable places to sit. We have found this to be a rarity in most of the places we stay. Comfortable furniture generally does not seem to be a priority. It is here. We walked "uptown" every night of our stay to check out the great seafood restaurants in the main part of the harbor. Nice private parking right at the front door. All in all a 5 star stay in an area that is really hard to find anywhere to stay. We will be back!
