Great little family stay. The backyard faces a preserved marshland with a quiet natural setting where one can see flocks of cranes and egrets stalking about. The house gets you close to the front door of the famous Gloucester Blvd. and provides safe retreat in a quiet neighborhood with ample parking and easy access to all the great restaurants along 133. House was impressively clean and cozy. Well appointed with a nice kitchen and a comfortable deck. Quite the jackpot!

Everything was perfect thank you so much for having us
This is a great property. The only issue we had was trouble with the key pad/lock on the door, but we were able to get ahold of the property management and they were able to help us get in.

Cozy
Very quiet neighborhood , cozy home only minutes from town with lots to do and 30 minutes from Salem
Great proximity to Downtown Gloucester, comfortable house for a group, beautiful views behind the house. The bottom bunk of the bunkbed might be the most uncomfortable bed we've ever slept in as adults, but kids probably wouldn't bat an eye. Basement would be more fun to hang out in if it wasn't so musty. Ultimately, it worked just fine for our group attending a weekend wedding in Essex.
