Enjoy our eclectic home as much as we do. This place is not a business property that we only do short term rentals. It is our getawy place that we enjoying sharing with others.

Well situated- walking distance from the ocean. This home suited our needs perfectly. Plenty of room for 6 adults with lots of stuff to do. The owners were responsive to our questions, Other than a snafu getting into the home, everything else went well.
This is truly a very special house. It is more spacious than it looks and is full of wonderful nooks and crannies to explore. My grandchildren and my cocker spaniel loved it. I would happily spend summers there if I could. Morning walks to town and the beach were amazing. The back room was our favourite with the natural light. It had everything we needed and would highly recommend it. There are some narrow stairways but even those with issues managed fine, using the wider stairs at the front of the house.
This is the first time we stayed at this property and were very pleased with the accommodations. The host was one of the best we've had in terms of responsiveness.
Enjoyed our stay with family. Old house with lots of charm. Updated kitchen, bathroom and family room. Close walk to town. Third floor bathroom not for the vertically challenged. We would stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was just wonderful. It was a Home that we could imagine Fisherman or lobster man and their family living. The property was advertised as just steps from beaches and shops and it was true we walked downTown to the shops and to the beaches. The streets and the beaches were clean and well manicured. The shops were wonderful all in all we had a great time and look forward to returning.
The house served our general needs while we were there with 3 dogs! However, we found it difficult to relax as the house seemed overcrowded with A LOT of heavily upholstered furniture of MANY different patterns and way too many knick-knacks. There were all sorts of odd leftovers from previous renters... i.e.. nail polish, half-used bars of soap, etc.
We stayed in partridge house with our 9 year old twins and 60 year old parents and there was plenty of space for the 6 of us. The location was perfect and we walked into town multiple times per day, either to the beach or for shopping or for dinner and ice cream. The owners were super easy and nicely provided some good coffee (plus some condiments and spices and teas to get us started). The backyard was even nicer than photos as there was a table for 4 on the porch (we squeezed kids in no prob) and some relaxing chairs in the yard. Would definitely stay again!
Great place to stay! We enjoy how easy it is to walk to Bearskin Neck and front beach. Well supplied with everything we needed (bath,kitchen, etc.). Kids enjoy the 3 levels to this house as it gives them their own space.
This is a quintessential and well-kept New England property, with all the narrow hallways, odd staircases, built-in bookcases, window a/c, and funny angles that you would expect if you're familiar with the area. We love this kind of charm, it's precisely what we visit for - your mileage may vary. Only note, and the owner is honest about this in the description: if you are over 5'10'' tall, maybe swap the top floor master suite with its very low ceilings (but spacious layout and comfy lounge area) for one of the smaller bedrooms on the 2nd floor - save your head a bump or two. At the same time, the rest of the house feels open and airy and spacious - big kitchen with plenty of amenities, easy parking, plenty of rooms to spread out in, even for our party of 3 adults and 4 kids, and a beautiful backyard and patio, full of flowers and birds. Owner Andy visited briefly to fix a leaky shower head and wobbly table that the previous tenants reported. He was respectful in planning a time, quick with repairs, and told good stories while he was there - all hallmarks of a great VRBO owner. And location - chef's kiss! 1 block to a pizza/grinder joint owned by cheerful Brazillians that served the perfect post-beach-day take-home foods...3 blocks to Brother's Brew for the best coffee on donuts on Bearskin...5 blocks to Bearskin shopping and restaurants...8 blocks to Front Beach. Everything was extremely walkable and that made this property even more enjoyable.
Adorable house, lots of room for a large group. Well equipped kitchen, bath and lovely backyard. Comfortable stay!
This was a great house for a large group; we were nine with 4 kids. There was plenty of room to spread out and lots of space to cook and prepare meals. It was lovely to be within walking distance to everything in Rockport. The home itself was charming and had a cottage-y, well-loved feel.
Loved our brief stay in this charming house. Imaginatively decorated with antique and vintage pieces but also equipped with everything adults and kids could want to relax and enjoy Cape Ann and the delightful town of Rockport. Spacious, well equipped kitchen. Our Corgi mix had to be carried up and down the steep, winding, uncarpeted stairs. Otherwise, perfect.
The house is charming. There are so many windows. It’s full of light and just a happy place to stay. The location is wonderful-so close to Bearskin Neck. The owners quickly replied to any questions and checked in with a message during the stay. The home has all the amenities we needed. We loved it!
We loved our stay. The house was exactly as described and accommodated all of us with room to spare. It was clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen and bathroom. We’d love to stay again next time we visit. It’s a gem.
Loved the location to all our activities and events. Love old homes with all its various rooms, twists and turns.
