    A beautiful property in the Magnolia section of Gloucester, MA. A comfortable and spacious house with everything you could need for a pleasant stay. The driveway is a bit steep and the main bedroom bed is not very comfortable but those are only really minor complaints. The host was very responsive and polite throughout the whole process. I’d recommend this place to anyone coming to enjoy Cape Ann!

    This house and location is perfection! We loved our stay and hope to come back again. Listening to the sounds of the ocean at night was as relaxing as could be.This house really has everything in it - there's a better stocked kitchen than at my house! We traveled with a one year old and a four year old - the house had everything: pack and play, pack and play mattresses, toys, high chair, kids cutlery and plates, safety items for sockets and doors, I could go on and on. There is no safety gate for the stairs but we blocked our curious toddler with the pack and play, and it worked perfectly. We would recommend staying here a million times over!

    The house is beautiful, we are a family of 5 and each of my kids have their own comfortable rooms. Kitchen, bathroom and practically the entire house is well equipped for your own convenience and ease. Checking in was a breeze. The house is beautiful & close to downtown and sites in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay, & hoping to be back soonThank you to Rafal and Jessica for sharing with us their beautiful house

    Rafal and Jessica provided excellent communication in advance of our stay. The home was clean, comfortable and well stocked. The location is just beautiful with views of the water. Highly recommend visiting Hammond Castle, which is literally just steps away.

    Beautiful area and convenient to sites and towns nearby. The deck of the home was fantastic and views of the ocean were wonderful. House was very clean and stocked with all essentials. Some felt the mattresses were very uncomfortable. Some also struggled with lack of outlets in bedrooms and bathrooms. There are repairs needed with the unstable toilet downstairs.

    We came to the area to watch our daughters and their significant others run in the Salem half marathon. We had a wonderful weekend with family. We cooked meals and played games the space for enjoying time with family was absolutely wonderful. Located between Gloucester and Manchester we were able to enjoy the area as well. I would highly recommend this property.

    I recently stayed at this beautiful home in Gloucester and had an amazing experience! The property was incredibly spacious, providing more than enough room for everyone in our group to relax comfortably. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, which made our stay feel even more welcoming. The hosts were fantastic—communication was seamless from start to finish. They were quick to respond and provided all the information we needed to make our stay enjoyable and stress-free. The house itself was in a great location, perfect for exploring the stunning coastal scenery of Gloucester. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a clean, spacious, and well-managed place to stay. We can't wait to return!

    This home was the perfect retreat for our girls getaway. The house was very clean, welcoming, and had more than enough space for our group of 5. The view of the sea from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking and the neighborhood is like something from a movie. Rafal is a friendly and attentive host. Highly recommend this home to anyone planning a trip to the area!

    We grew up in the 50's thru the 80's in nearby Lynn. Picked Rafaels house because of its location and open floor plan. Having 3 bedrooms each with a full bath was exceptional and a must have for our crowd of 2 married and one single. We enjoyed the deck and view of the ocean. very nice and would recomend the house to others.
