Easter Weekend Stay

Our stay was wonderful - the house is the perfect size for two people, it’s very clean, it’s very quiet, it’s interesting to just look at, and it feels very private…a great little escape from the very accessible nearby cities.

Perfect Cozy Spot

Excellent little place in the perfect location for exploring and relaxing. Quiet and comfy but with easy access to all the sights. 5 minutes from town, 10 to Salem. Great walkable neighborhood was a bonus. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing stay!!

My wife and I came to visit the Marblehead/Salem area, and absolutely loved everything about our stay!! The property we stayed at was exactly as described, amazingly clean and orderly, and an absolutely beautiful little oasis of a bungalow! The neighborhood is. Wry clean, neighbors are all very nice, and the property managers/owners were nothing but accommodating! Ms. Damaris was super quick to allow us an early check-in, and the check-in process was probably the easiest I’ve ever experienced! They also leave plenty of information on the table about the surrounding area, amenities and attractions! I would absolutely recommend, and will happily stay here again the next time we visit! Thank you so much, David and Damaris!

First time visiting New England.

Marblehead cottage was exactly exactly like it looked in the pictures on the VRBO site. The neighborhood was great and both my husband and I took a nice run while we were there down to the water and through the town. The only things that we had problems with were the convection feature on the microwave since we have never used that before, and we couldn't use the Keurig because it said it needed to be descaled and I really don't know how to do that. Other than that, we loved the cottage. It was so cute. I would definitely recommend it to anyone going to that area.

Beautiful and calm place to stay!

We definitely made the right move in staying here while visiting Salem. Salem is crazy busy and this place is in a quiet beautiful neighborhood. Super easy Uber ride to Salem. The house is clean and easy to feel at home.

Marblehead Cottage

Loved this location. It was quiet and had close access to conservation nature areas, the quaint old downtown of Marblehead and it’s bay. We enjoyed exploring the town and learning about its history. We recommend this cottage for those who love history and nature and appreciate being away from the hustle and bustle of a city. The host was very helpful with suggestions about historical landmarks and local groceries and restaurants. .

Special Spot in Marblehead

No regrets staying at this rental in Marblehead. Perfect spot for our stay while we visited for a few days. Just outside the hustle and bustle of Salem and close to the quaint spots for shopping and eating in historic Marblehead. Beauty all around. The owners were so helpful when I accidentally left something behind. A++

A Gem!

We arrived at Whittier Cottage on bikes after cycling from Portland, ME and spending two nights in a tent. It is an oasis! The cottage is beautifully designed and appointed and Damaris and David are gracious and welcoming hosts. It is a wonderful place to stay in Marblehead.

First time in Marblehead

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway to this scenic New England town. The cottage is charming and the modern design maximizes the space. All we needed for a comfortable stay was there. Comfortable bed with soft linens, modern fixtures in the kitchen and bath and a friendly cat that visits in the yard!

Peaceful Sanctuary

When our good friends booked a wedding venue near Salem, Mass in the middle of October, we wanted to stay accessible to, but just outside the madness. This little cottage in Marblehead was a perfect choice! It’s an easy Uber ride from Downtown Salem, yet enough removed to allow for peaceful downtime. The cottage is cozy and bright with everything we needed and is surrounded by a lovely yard and gardens. The host and hostess were kind and accommodating. I would absolutely recommend this stay for anyone.

Best Little Vacation Rental EVER❤️

My daughter and I took a short trip to Marblehead and Salem for Fall Break. This property was PERFECT for the two of us. Great proximity to all Marblehead and Salem attractions and hot spots, beautiful neighborhood, equipped with everything we needed. We loved starting our day with morning coffee on the porch and planning our activities. Property owner was very responsive. Thank you for a great, first-time experience in Marblehead. We’ll be back!
