The History!

This was a great stay. We travel often and always use VRBO. We loved the quirky floors of the old building. Took me back to my childhood in my grampas farm house. Then when I learned the history of the property, I fell in love. Definitely recommend for families

Long weekend getaway

Overall the property was perfect for out needs. Amazing location righr acroas the street from a small beach. Room for our 3 kids. Close to the ferry and Boston. Only cons are in the listing it says toys, video games, childrens kitchen things supplied. They are not. No body wash. And my husband had to run to home depot to fix one of the twin bedframes the first night there and repair the door knob to the master bedroom. O erall great experience. Amazing responsive kind host.

Perfect Vacation

Was going to Boston for Kane Brown concert at Fenway Park with my 2 sons and boyfriend. Decided to make it a little vacation. Once decided that knew I needed a place to do some fishing. First night there went to Coop’s Bar & Grill. Delicious food. Next day went down to the bait shop to gather a few supplies to fish off Nut Island Pier. After fishing went to Off the Hook restaurant. Food was okay. Went back to fish more. I was the only one to anything which was a striper. Fishing in the evening at the pier gets very crowded. Locals are trying to catch squid. Next day spent some time in Boston. Would have liked to have been there longer but I did get to Cheers bar. I like food there & grabbed a souvenir. To be the last day went to Canton for Top Golf then to Boston for Wahlburgers and the concert. All was good till I realized I lost the car rental key. I had better luck with the property owner helping me problem solve than being able to get a hold of the car rental place with their 24 hour assistance. Once everything was solved with car was able to head home a few hours later than what was planned. But it all worked out. Thank you to Deborah and Susan.

Great spot overlooking the ocean

Traveling with my mother and young adult niece, we choose this spot to have a quiet, safe spot to call home base after touring the city. This spot met the mark! All the essentials were provided, and it was super easy to call in a grocery delivery or food order when needed. Transport into town via Uber was convenient enough and still cost significantly less than a rental car for our stay would have been. And the view and access to water are added bonuses. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, safe spot that is convenient to surrounding areas. We will return!

Perfect Location for Exploring the Beach and the City!

We had a fabulous stay here over the week of the Fourth of July! My kids loved visiting the beach right out front every morning and night. At low tide, there is a small strip of beach and the kids found crabs and other ocean life. At high tide, the water comes all the way up to the side of the flood wall. The kids loved kayaking right out front too! The apartment was well stocked and the host was incredibly generous and welcoming, with beach towels and body boards we could take on our beach day to nearby Nantasket Beach. She also dropped off some fun Fourth of July hats and noisemakers, which was so sweet! The apartment is also well situated for a ferry ride or a drive into downtown. We took the ferry from Quincy one day and also drove in to town, which only took about 20 min. Near to the original Dunkin’ Donuts and a great grocery store too. Comfortable beds and everything else that we needed. Would stay again, highly recommend!

Boston Vacay

We stayed here for our summer vacation. We were busy, so the house was a place to sleep. It was muggy because there’s no central air, just a free standing unit in the living room. It made for stuffy nights unless you kept the bedroom doors open. Sleeping with the windows open was difficult because traffic on the streets was nonstop & loud. The fridge had leftover food from prior tenants & there was a dirty washcloth in the shower, which we’ve never encountered at a VRBO before & made us wonder if their cleaning crew had done anything. The pics of the property & views listed were very misleading. You might have some of those views if you had access to the whole house. We were surprised that someone was living on the 2nd floor, so we weren’t prepared to see & hear signs of life upstairs. When people say the floor slopes, it REALLY slopes, like things were sliding down the floor & it was a fall risk & we were tripping if we didn’t pay attention. The bathroom didn’t lock & you had to control the light from the outside of the bathroom, which the kids enjoyed pranking each other, so there was that. I didn’t complain because it was what it was & aside from the fact they need a better cleaning crew, the rest was structural & bad location in general. Although, would be nice to update pics to reflect what you’re actually getting & advertise it’s not a house, it’s just a downstairs apartment. It served it’s function, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Why they chose this property

You can't be closer to the water. Walk the kayaks across the road and launch right in front of the house. Fish, or go for a swim.
I say 5 person comfortable limit but I have had families bring a couple of extra kids and throw them on the futon. No problem.

What makes this property unique

You can have a beach vacation and also be able to enjoy the rich culture and history of Boston.
