Charming Pet Friendly Studio Cottage On Quiet Lane

Rockport, Massachusetts, United States

Step away from your hectic life. Welcome to our homes by the sea. The scent of the ocean. The crack of a lobster claw. Stirring coffee as your eyes dance over to the sun rising over the old church steeple. New England life at its finest. brbrMaybe you’ll while the day away in the numerous quaint art galleries. Maybe you’ll sample the best fresh seafood on the eastern seaboard. Or simply spend the day staring at the ocean. We can’t think of a better way to spend a vacation.brbrSure, we’re biased. Our family has had a home in Rockport for almost 400 years. Each of the three cottages were built by our ancestors who were local fishermen, and has been a base for our family throughout the seasons and years. Let us open our homes and welcome you to spend time in this little slice of perfection.brbrWe love animals so warmly welcome your furry one and as the dog/people park is just down the lane, it is a short walk for your pet to enjoy a good run.brbrShould your reservations need to be cancelled, we respectfully request that we receive such notice as soon as possible. With such a short summer season, refunds or partial refunds will be based on timing as our calendars fill up a year in advance and difficult to rebook for long range planning.brbrKeywords: ocean, beaches, Gloucester, Rockport, Boston, Train Station, art, cottage, year round, Martha Stewart perfect, sea views, great location, renovated, pet friendly, charming decor, two minute walk to beach, walk to Bear Skin Neck, fully furnished, available year round, backyard oasis,

Sea Glass House - Tranquil Retreat or Base for Adventure

Rockport, Massachusetts, United States

The PropertybrbrWhether you seek a tranquil seaside retreat or a base for adventure on land or water, this spacious, light-filled 1-bedroom apartment on the entire 1st floor of an 1850s carriage house in the heart of Rockport village has everything you need--private front and rear entrances, private courtyard/patio, off-street parking, washer/dryer in unit, cable TV/wifi, dogs allowed. brbrFeatures large sunny bedroom, full bathroom, fully-equipped kitchen, open living room and dining area, hardwood floors, dishwasher, washer/dryer in unit. Private rear patio/courtyard w/ gas grill, tables and patio furniture. One parking space in driveway, other parking available on street. Quick stroll to Shalin Liu Performing Arts Center for world-class music with splendid Sandy Bay as backdrop; historic Main Street with its many colorful art galleries; and pristine Front and Back beaches with the clearest, cleanest water in New England. For adventure, try renting a sea kayak to tour the magnificent Cape Ann coast; or jump on your mountain bike and try the trails 5 minutes away in ancient Dogtown forest.brbrThe LocationbrbrRockport is a microcosm of all the best features of coastal New England--pristine sandy beaches and crystal clear water; a vibrant arts scene with many working artists and a world class performing arts center; colorful galleries, shops and restaurants; and a village that has carefully preserved its many 18th and 19th century homes and buildings. It is just a five minute drive from historic Gloucester, which offers even more restaurants and attractions and one of the few remaining commercial waterfronts in New England. The area offers an endless array of activities for lovers of art, music, history and the outdoors.brbrWake up and take your coffee on the private courtyard patio at the rear, stroll out the door to drop a postcard at the post office, walk a couple more blocks to Front Beach to watch terns and plovers wheel overhead as the sun rises over Sandy Bay and you gather colorful bits of 200-year old sea glass and crockery. Later, amble along Main Street to the shops and restaurants of Dock Square and Bearskin Neck and watch the lobster boats depart from Tuna Wharf for the catch you will eat later that night.brbrThe active visitor can rent a kayak and paddle out to Thatcher Island to visit the Twin Lights, one of the few double lighthouses still in operation and a national landmark; or walk the massive granite outcroppings at Halibut Point State Park, where the sea breeze freshens even the hottest summer day. For those seeking more action, you can explore hundreds of acres of hiking and biking trails in Dogtown, the vast and rocky woodlands containing the original settlement of Gloucester from the early 1600s; surf the waves off Long Beach in Rockport or Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester, or scuba dive the rocky bays and coves along the coastline that are renowned for their clarity and accessibility.
