The house is clean and nice, but it's the view that's fantastic. We could sit and watch the birds, the boats, and the marsh grasses for hours. Gordon is friendly and very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay.

July 2017

We walked to the beach at Good Harbor and enjoyed crossing the sandbar at low tide to Salt Island. Two grocery stores, liquor store were very close. Gloucester had a small Maritme Museum perfect for little kids hands on tide pool exhibit, interesting shipping display and great little dive shack which was the adults' favorite. Despite a bit of unusual rain, there was plenty to entertain us nearby. Bear Skin Neck shopping in Rockport was exceptional. Would love to make this an annual trip! *This review was originally posted on TripAdvisor for a stay in July 2017
