Stunning from top to bottom, this coastal charmer will have you slipping into the vacation mindset in no time. With flawless views of the sound from nearly every room in the house, you will have no trouble finding solace and serenity as you sip a morning coffee or glass of wine on the upper deck. Your convenient waterfront location has you close to several beaches, scenic parks and trails to traverse, and historical landmarks. The heart of Ipswich is also only a short drive away for everyone to indulge in the tasty local restaurants.
The interior of this abode is the perfect mix of contemporary comfort while still having the classic feel of a beachfront cottage. The open layout makes it effortless to transition from comfortably lounging in the living area to preparing meals or snacks in the kitchen. Speaking of which, the well-equipped kitchen boasts a stovetop, oven, full fridge, and all the appliances needed to prepare your favorite recipes. Indulge in meals together at the table while admiring the lovely landscape. Better yet, have the group chef sear your meals to perfection on the grill and dine alfresco at the table by the water. When you want to get a bit of quiet time, the hammock and seating areas scattered about the property all offer unique views. As the sun sets, have everyone gather around the firepit to make s'mores and truly complete your perfect days here.
Don't wait a second longer, as this gem won't last long!

The ever-changing view of the marshes, all the wildlife and sunset is peaceful and fascinating. The cottage is well-equipped and comfortable, even in early spring. Quiet, remote, charming and still close to all the interesting towns and activities nearby. We loved the 3 huge windows next to the table for our many scrabble games and meals. Truly a sanctuary.
Just an incredible location directly on the water. House is adorable and the bed was very comfortable (an important consideration for me) House seems to be managed by an outside company. Very responsive by message but obviously not local or nearby.
We booked the home at the last minute because we wanted to get away for the weekend. The listing was amazing and being situated waterside made it perfect for
an unusually warm November. It was even better than the listing! A deck, a balcony, amazing sights of sunsets and moon sets far exceeded our expectations. It was one of the most beautiful bnbs we have rented.
We had a little trouble at first with the internet, but the Vacasa folks helped with that....and then we discovered the password on the fridge...should have looked there first.
