It was the best weather week of the summer! Off to Good Harbor Beach each day; seafood & ice cream each night!
We had a nice time staying here. We particularly appreciated the little extras - coffee, tea, condiments and spices in the kitchen, choice of cloth napkins or thick paper ones, large basket of beach towels by the door, a hose to rinse of sand in the back, different patterned towels so each person can tell their own. Warning: the half bath is down a flight of stairs, past the basement laundry and it has a very low ceiling (about 5'4) but you will need to use it since the only other bathroom is upstairs, shared with all three bedrooms.
We enjoyed our stay at Daniel and Carol's house. Choosing Gloucester was a good move for us, location-wise. This house was welcoming, very clean and warm. The pamphlets and literature on the area were very helpful. The house is close to many good restaurants. Our hosts have thought of many things to have on hand for families including lots of games and a doll house. We were very comfortable and felt safe in the neighborhood. Thank you Daniel and Carol.
Fantastic vacation at this Gloucester, Mass property. We enjoyed it very much. The honeymoon was loaded with just about everything needed to relax, sleep,make meals, entertainment etc. Cannot wait to stay here again next time we travel to New England!
My family and I enjoyed staying here in Gloucester. The house was well set up with all the kitchen, beach, living supplies we needed. There was even a lovely doll house that captivated my daughter the whole week. The trek to the beach was a bit further than my little one was comfortable with, but easily solved with a beach drop-off or stroller/wagon.
All amenities provided, clean, lovely and picturesque home with fenced in yard in quiet neighborhood (but tight for traffic so leave the kid's bikes and scooters at home!). Lots of brochures and info about local attractions waiting for us on side table. Kid's games, toys and beach gear were a special bonus. Beautiful Good Harbor Beach a short drive (or walk) away.
The cottage was clean and well suited for our needs. Other than making coffee we did no cooking there so cannot comment on the kitchen supplies. The deck was a great place to start the day with morning coffee and the location was convenient to the many wonderful restaurants in Gloucester, and it was close to our other relatives staying in Essex. The neighborhood was a wonderful place for taking leisurely walks that often included either the wonderful coffee shop or the ice cream stand. Should the occasion arise we would definitely return to this location.
Very cute house in a quiet neighborhood. No cable TV, only streaming ability which was a bit confusing. Bathroom sink faucet/hot water was hard to turn on. Only able to use the washing machine, no dryer. Overall, the owner was extremely nice and helpful and we all had a wonderful time.
Daniel was a spectacular host that checked on us during our stay. We had everything we needed and more. Great location and very clean and home-y!
The house was so clean! My husband and I, along with my mom, sister, and aunt, had an amazing vacation. The property is a short 20 minute drive to Salem making it prime location if you want to take part in the seasonal activities. We had no trouble finding the house, and the neighbors were very friendly. 10/10 would rent this home again.
