Location, location, location! This vacation home is large and comfortable and is just steps to the white sands and surf of Good Harbor Beach. The location offers the best of all worlds as it is so close to Cape Ann's most popular beach and also has water views of Bass Rocks.

The front of the house has a full-length porch from which you can view the sea in comfortable shade and enjoy a beverage or meal in the fresh ocean breezes.

From the porch, enter into the living room with aflat screen TV and plenty of seating. The adjoining den has a pullout sofa, a TV, and games, which makes the room serve double-duty as a kid (or adult) getaway or semi-private additional sleeping space. The recently renovated granite kitchen is eat-in and fully applianced. The butler's pantry offers more storage and prep space in addition to a half bath.

Upstairs are 4 bedrooms (3 of which are air conditioned) and two more full baths.The master bath offers an oversized jetted tub, double sinks and a separate glass-enclosed shower and the hall bath also has a full size jetted tub with a shower.

The house will comfortably sleep 10 with enough room for your family and the folks that will want to visit you in this wonderful beach house. Leave your car in the driveway (and avoid the beach parking fees) and walk to Good Harbor Beach.

This dramatic rocky bit of coastline is a destination for those looking for views of the Atlantic at its most intense. The popular Back Shore walk is one of the most scenic walks on the eastern seaboard and the sidewalk begins in front of Seaside House and continues for 1.5 miles one way (or 3 miles round trip back to the house).

Note: The house has two other occupied units with separate entrances and parking.

2,500 SF. No pets. No smoking. No events or parties.

    We really enjoyed our stay. I do agree with the other reviewer that the amount of signs telling you what to do or not do is overwhelming. Some are helpful, so are completely not necessary. There is also people living in the basement and attic, but it was no big deal. We rarely saw them and never heard them, we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. It would also be nice if there was whole house A/C. Also the one room A/C constantly needed emptied. It was humid during our stay and the ocean breeze didn't really cut it. That being said, I would definitely stay here again. Plenty of room, very comfortable and clean. You can not beat this location! We walked to the beach frequently and it was so nice not to worry about parking. The beach was amazing. Bass Rocks in the front yard was so beautiful. The town was cute and there was plenty to do nearby. This is a great rental.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Probably the worst vacation home we've ever rented in the east coast. The only saving grace was the stunning beauty of the location. The house was unclean (ants running around everywhere in kitchen, dirty floor, disgustingly dirty carpet, etc.), no dinning room, very small living room ,poorly furnished. The beds however were clean and comfortable. The creepiest point was that it appeared that the owners lived in both the basement and the attic of the rental house! There were many locked doors and closets with overwhelming number of sings mostly telling you what not to do. Definitely not welcoming place. We will go back to the area but never to that house again!

We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and the house served as a gathering place after the party and through out the week. The location was perfect and the views were amazing.

Great house. Clean with plenty of amenities. Location is great for walking to Good Harbor Beach and simply enjoying the views of the Atlantic from the front porch.
