The apartment is equipped with everything you need for your stay, including games for the kids. We were greeted by the owner with a quick walk through and homemade banana bread on the table. We were there for two weeks and completely enjoyed our stay, so did our fur babies. Nice deck to enjoy if weather permits. Will definitely book again and refer to family and friends.
An absolutely beautiful location to explore many different places.
We had a great stay, was there for a week. Place was clean, perfect for our family of 4. Gloucester was close to Salem and Boston. Hostess was very attentive and quick to respond.
It was our second time at the property. We loved the fact that we were in a quiet neighborhood, yet close enough to the beach and downtown to walk around. We will surely be back!
After a couple of uncomfortable experiences we were overjoyed to find Carol’s clean apartment. Our nine day stay was as restful we needed it and in a good location. We know the area well so that made it an easy treat. Would not hesitate to visit again. Carol was able to help us through a difficult spot…we needed a dentist quickly and her recommendation was perfect! Now what could be better than that for an anniversary/birthday vacation. Oh yes and two great lobsters at the Causeway❣️
Just right for myself, my daughter and her dog. Comfortable and clean, supplied necessities We spend most of our time in Salem
Nearly all the comforts of home and close to many interesting places to visit
Perfect location, great host (responsive, communicative, friendly and helpful). Walk to Good Harbour beach (best in the area) and coast, grocery store, restaurant and ice cream. Quiet neighborhood. Nice fenced in yard and deck for us and the dog. :)
The central location encouraged us to explore all of Cape Ann. The apartment was comfortable, offered access to a beautiful outdoor space, and had good parking. We enjoyed our stay very much.
The house was perfect for the two of us. The pictures don’t do it Justice. Nice size bathroom. The kitchen has a great gas stove. It is big enough to prepare a meal. The host is very nice and gave us good tips on restaurants. Will be coming back here on our next trip to Gloucester.
We were in Gloucester for a wedding at Hammond castle. The apartment was clean and good repair. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook for ourselves. The bed was comfortable, bedding clean and fresh. I loved having a washer/dryer in the unit. Although we didn’t have time to spend on the patio it was cute and roomy (and Charlie the lab was adorable). Carol, the owner was great. Loved everything about this rental.
Carol is a lovely lady and the place is homey. Slept like a baby and could walk everywhere I needed to.
Great host; quiet, clean, convenient. Looking forward to a return visit! Thank you!!!
Carol was a wonderful host! This property was a close walk to the ocean, a mike walk to a few restaurants in town, and a few grocery stores very close by. The home was Peaceful and homey. I had an extended stay for over a month, and everything was wonderful. Place was clean, and had everything I needed. I'll definitely be back during the summer, such a great stay! Thank you!
Had a great time being back in Massachusetts was good for us and the fury part of the family, only bad thing is it made us realize how much we miss being home, and are deciding to move back to New England in 2 years, thanks Carol PS Charlie is a great welcoming comitee lol ty Charlie
This adorable apartment was clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable. I loved being so close to the ocean. I've already recommended it to friends.
We stayed here for three weeks and just got home today. We have a lot of family in Gloucester, so the location was awesome, and in the summer, it would be even more so because of it's proximity to GHB, downtown, Rockport, Salem, etc.. It's a comfortable private apartment and had everything we needed. It has a nice deck in the back and a fire pit, so had the weather been accommodating, that would have been enjoyable. The manager answered our few questions quickly. We had such a nice time being in Gloucester, visiting family over Thanksgiving, and renting this vrbo made it perfect.
We had a great time at Carol’s property. It’s within easy walking distance to both the beach and downtown. The kitchen and laundry appliances were super helpful - we even used the grill one night. Highly recommended as a home base to explore Gloucester/Cape Ann
I had lovely eight night stay and the property had everything I needed. To be clear I am not a vacationer but someone returning to my home of Cape Ann. I am here to be here and enjoy my favorite locations and restaurants. I was also traveling with my senior dog and Carrol and her dog Charlie could have not been anymore accommodating. The fenced in yard was perfect. I will stay here again on my next visit which can’t arrive soon enough.
Carol was great, her lab Charlie was so sweet. The place was neat and clean. Plenty of room inside and outside. Close to beach and down down. Would definitely go back.
Quiet, clean, comfy. Close to the beach. My only complaint is that the bedroom air conditioner doesn’t cool the bedroom very well. Fortunately, there was only one hot night during my stay.
