Come and get away from it all at this beautiful beachfront property in Rockport, where you'll be mere steps from the open, sandy expanse of Long Beach! Let the sights and sounds of the Atlantic Ocean wash away your stresses as you take long morning walks along the paved seawall and spend your days exploring the charming artist's colony of Rockport. Each evening, wind down on the porch as you luxuriate in the salty ocean air.
This home sits right on the ocean in the middle of uncrowded Long Beach, four miles south of the center of downtown Rockport. Browse the charming shops on Bearskin Neck in town, or head three miles west to hop a whale-watching cruise in Gloucester (this area is home to multiple species of whales, including humpback and finback whales that come to New England to feed with their calves). Visit historic Thatcher Island, spend your days playing tennis, and enjoy some of the freshest seafood you'll find anywhere.

We stayed for a weekend and all of us wished we had stayed longer! Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean is soothing for the soul.
The location is incredible. We spent most of our time on the front porch or walking along the lovely beach. At the time of year we went (end of September), the beach is fairly empty other than a few people with their dogs. The location is well worth it especially for the price. Agree with other reviews I’ve seen regarding lack of utensils in the kitchen and the beds aren’t very comfortable. Upgrades would be great, but would likely increase the rental fee.
The property for what we were looking for with our adult children and grandchildren. Adequate space and accommodations for 10. Beach right out your front door, couldn’t be better and it didn’t hurt that the weather was perfect! All amenities were great with a well stocked kitchen and fantastic dining table with plenty of seating! Would highly recommend and hoping to possibly rent again next year !
Excellent location and the house has everything you need. It could use some updates, but overall would stay here again and enjoyed our time in Rockport.
Great location overlooking the beach. However, the cleanliness of the rental was not what we expected. The refrigerator was dirty, there was mold in both showers, the sheets had sand and grass in them, and there were mice in the kitchen.
Location was our driving force and didn’t disappoint. Been renting up here for 25 years. Location was the best.
The location was awesome. The cleanliness of the house was awful. The sheets were not clean so we had to strip the beds and wash and dry the sheets before we could go to bed that evening. The floors had sand on them, the house was dusty, there was no hairdryer (we had to buy one), the iron did not work, we were told there were four beach chairs (we could not find them) and one of the showers had someone’s personal razor and soap container in it.
Great view. Kids loved being right on the water
The view was amazing. The neighbors were nice. Beds...especially twin mattress were awful. Fly problem..windows and curtains dirty. Old towels of multiple colors.
Really lovely view, location is perfect. Nice clean water. House was ok, it was not clean properly Broken beds, no AC, so it was to hot upstairs. No toilet paper, and shower shampoo with conditioner was clearly expired. There was a lot of mosquitoes and bugs in the house, and not really clean dishes Other than that everything was perfect
We had a fabulous time here. Everyone loved being right on the ocean. We required a place with 7 separate beds and this filled that need. Would have been nice to have a bathroom on the upstairs but we managed.
The house is just as described and what the pictures show. It’s campy and rustic. The location is what makes the house! Younwalk out the door and there is the water and sand. We never wanted to leave the house. It’s a great place to people watch, walk on the beach and take a dip. We hope to be back again.
Recomend replacing grill
The property is clean, pleasant and RIGHT on the beach, close to everything. My only complaint was that it was so hot no one could sleep upstairs the first night. Fortunately, Chastity, the property manager, brought a large portable AC unit that cooled everything down. She was AWESOME! I would definitely stay again.
