Diana’s place was perfect! Super comfy furniture and beds. The apartment had everything you would need and more! Great location! Short walk to everything! Such a friendly, happy town. Rockport is our granddaughters favorite place to vacation. We all hope to return next summer!
2BR 1bath unit very clean and included soap/shampoo/conditioner as well as coffee and tea which was a plus for us flying in. Plenty of towels. Beds were comfortable for all including twin beds for adult children. a/c was flowing. Hot showers plentiful without issues. Quiet area, walking distance into Rockport. Host was very responsive, friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend to family and friends and stay again ourselves.
We stayed at this condo for a week with our two kids and had an amazing time! The location was great- walking g distance to downtown and the beach. The condo was really clean and comfortable and Diana was incredibly helpful and responsive. We’ll be back!!

Everything was perfect! The entire place was beautiful. Every room had beautiful real flowers. Diana had kept in contact before, during and after. She was a wonderful host. I can't say enough wonferful words about our stay in Rockport, MA! We loved everything about it! Highly suggest this beauitful place to stay!
Diana is a great host--she responds very quickly and is really helpful. The apartment is exactly as pictured. The location can't be better. Just a few blocks to the charming Rockport downtown. It is really fun to wander around the neighborhood. Beautiful homes!
I have been going to Rockport for more than 20 years for the 4th of July. We typically stay in a hotel or motor lodge. With that you are usually handicapped with parking and driving around constantly. This was the perfect location! So convenient. Walking distance from Bear Skin Neck. 2 parking spots! Pristine condition. The landlord was so sweet and great to deal with. We just had the best time. So much so i already booked it for next year!
Perfect location just blocks away from Bearskin Neck without being in the middle of all the people traffic. Quieter. Spacious apartment for family of 3; we had master bedroom and teenage daughter had her own bedroom. It was so nice to be able to relax in the living room, watch movies, make tea after a beach walk, and not feel cramped in any way. Also nicely decorated, too.
Layout of open kitchen/living room with breakfast counter felt very relaxed. Weather did not allow us to sit in side yard by the fire pit but we would have loved to end the evening by the fire!
Host, Diana, actively communicated with us upon arrival and was so sweet and helpful. The guest binder with housekeeping details and tourist information is well-organized.
If we return later this summer, we would DEFINITELY look to stay at this property again.
I stayed here with my family the second week of June with my wife and two teens, 16 & 18. It was absolutely perfect for all of us. The weather was perfect all week. We were able to walk to so many things in Rockport, including three beautiful little beaches and of course all the shops and restaurants in and around bearskin neck. It is such a wonderful neighborhood. You could even walk to the train station if you wanted, but we usually drove there and there was always plenty of parking. We used the train to get back and forth to Salem, and it was far easier than driving and trying to find parking there.
The house was very clean and had lots of extra amenities that we don’t normally expect. We made one trip to the grocery store for food in Gloucester, at the beginning of the week, and that was all we needed. We had two private parking spaces right next to our entry to the house! Diana was absolutely wonderful to communicate with. Check-in and check-out was very easy, and she gave us some very helpful tips for the area.
If you are going to be visiting Rockport, Salem, Gloucester or anywhere else in the area, I would HIGHLY recommend staying here!
Beaucoup de plaisir en famille dans cet appartement très confortable et accueillant. Destination (Rockport) que nous connaissions déjà et que nous apprécions à chaque séjour. :)

Why they chose this property
This private, newly-renovated, well-appointed entire two-bedroom garden apartment comfortably sleeps four with full kitchen, bathroom, washer/dryer, central A/C. Desirably located, just steps to Rockport Harbor, restaurants, shopping, Shalin Liu Performance Center and short walk to beaches. Free onsite parking for two cars. Exclusive side yard use with patio, furniture and propane fire pit by summer. Bright & airy, it's a quiet, restorative getaway. Comfortable for families with portable Pack 'N Play crib, mattress, bedding, and infant bouncy chair.
What makes this property unique
The house is set in one of the best areas of Rockport with easy access to downtown shops and restaurants, across from Rockport Harbor, near the Headlands and Old Garden Beach, and easy to take walks from there down Marmion Way and other parts of town.
We have two free, off-street parking places at the house, right beside the entrance. The MBTA commuter rail comes into Rockport about 0.8 of a mile - or a 20 minute walk - to the house.
By Summer 2023, we plan to have an outdoor stone patio with comfortable outdoor furniture and a propane gas-fired outdoor fireplace for guests to enjoy. It's an exclusive side yard for the apartment so it is a nice place to hang out with family and friends with a sight line to town and Rockport Harbor.
