Sunrise on the Cove: Unparalleled Views!

From its waterfront perch, this vacation rental home overlooks Rockport's picturesque Pigeon Cove harbor and has spectacular, unobstructed views of Sandy Bay. Perfect for groups and families looking to enjoy a memorable coastal getaway, the location of the home is ideal, away from all the hustle of town, but within a 10-15 minute walk to everything you might want, including Front Beach, restaurants, galleries and shops and the world class Shalin Liu Performing Arts Center. Stroll along the waterfront Atlantic Path, take a hike at nearby Halibut Point State Park, or walk towards the village, stopping at Back Beach along the way.

Enjoy the water views from the deck, porch, and patio that grace each level of the home or from just about every room. You'll enjoy nature's show, the ebb and flow of the tide, with the quiet passing of the lobster boats and their omnipresent gull followers.

The living room, with sliders to the wraparound farmers porch, is open to the dining area and kitchen beyond. This is the perfect place to watch the sunrise (if you choose), from any of the decks or waterfront yard complete with a large fire pit.

The granite kitchen has stainless appliances and stylish new cabinets.

The main floor has two bedrooms, one queen with water views and another double bedroom. There is also a full bath with a tub and shower on this level. The second floor is the primary queen suite with a sitting area, flat screen TV and sliders to its own deck with those amazing views. Air conditioning will keep you cool, even on the hottest summer days. The bathroom is separated with a sink and toilet in a separate room and another sink outside in the main room for easy access.

There is a bonus living and sleeping area on the lower level with a queen bed, double futon and flat screen TV as well as an oversized bath with a shower and laundry room. Sliders lead to the patio and spacious yard, and waterfront fire pit.

The multiple spaces makes it perfect for groups. Come and enjoy your little slice of waterfront heaven at Sunrise on the Cove. Please note that this is a waterfront property; younger children should be supervised at all times.

Family summer vacay

Our family absolutely fell in love with Rockport!! And we are SO happy with this house we chose. At first we thought we would’ve liked to be walking distance to town, but the more we evaluated it, we realized our private waterfront location was perfection! It was quiet and peaceful and beautiful. And watching the lobster boats come and go was entertaining - and surprisingly quiet and NOT smelly. We will 100% rent the same house on our next visit.

Amazing location, great views and nice house!

We loved our stay here in Rockport! The house was great and clean, with amazing views. The deck was the perfect spot for our meals and morning coffee. We could have used a linens closet with some extra blankets and sheets. Basement was a bit musty and could use a dehumidifier. We had a fog for a few days and the basement was quite damp. Overall we were very happy with the house and the friendliness and response time of the property manager.

Incredible Views and Location

Each morning the sun glistened off the ocean giving the start of your new day a perfect beginning. Plenty of sun and shade are available all day long. The back deck, upper deck porch, and lawn offer picture perfect views of the Atlantic Ocean. The three floors offer plenty of room and privacy should you want to catch a nap or quiet time. Front Beach in Rockport is a 5 min drive or a 20 minute walk. Six adults and two grand children (1 and 3) lived comfortably. This was our saw second stay and plan to return.

Beautiful spot. The chairs and fire pit out back are perfect. The large dining room table was more than efficient. Balcony views and chairs were great. Overall, the house was exceptionally clean. One really impressive feature- they have enough outdoor chairs to accommodate the amount of people for which they advertise the house. As someone who travels occasionally in large groups, this is rare. We had one small cleaning issue, but were able to get someone in to take care of it. I would definitely come back. Important to note- the full bed in the garden room is on rollers. The bed was tough to keep in place. I hope the owners will consider putting a real bed in the space.

Beautiful Home & Location!

Wonderful location with gorgeous views, and somehow plenty of room for all of us (3 teens, 5 adults). The view was gorgeous whether it was sunny or rainy. Sometimes rentals can have cheap, uncomfy seating or beds but we all found everything super comfy and seating on the porch was great. Close to town but also felt like a great getaway from everything. Everyone loved it. Only thing - the management left us 2 dishwasher pods for 4 nights, and also required all dishes be cleaned and put away before leaving (am used to rentals saying just load the dw, start it and go). Without enough pods, and with a large group, it caused a bit of an annoying epic by-hand cleaning effort as we were trying to clear out. Otherwise perfect beautiful wonderful stay, and we all want to come back!

Family trip

Family came together to bring my fiances dad to Rockport. His father has been going for years and for the past 20 years it has been a tradition for my family and fiance to go yearly. SunRise on the Cove was perfect for all of us. We had our 1 year old, fiance, me and our 15 year old in the garden sweet. Brother in law , his fiance , their 16 year old and 7 year old on the top floor. Our oldest daughter (24) and her fiance and both my fiance parents on the main floor. There was a fire pit, beautiful view of the water and it was clean. Loved it. Unfortunately it rained most of our stay or it was too windy to sit outside and have a fire but we will definitely consider booking again in the summer. I did not contact the property manager. We didn't have a reason to.

Wonderful place

The house was just as advertised with cozy spaces and outstanding views from everywhere inside and outside the house. It appeared the house was recently remodeled as everything seemed new. The third floor bedroom having only a half bath was unusual but we just doubled up on the main level bath which, like the lower level bath, was beautiful and ample in size. Everything worked from the coffee pot to the grill to the ac units. We were provided with two bundles of firewood for the fire pit which was sufficient for two nice evenings outside. They have really maximized the use of the space in this lovely house. Overall very nice and good value.

Truly a Sunrise

This was our first visit to this property and plan to return the same time next year. Five adults and a 2 year old granddaughter had plenty of space and privacy. The rear of the house has three different deck levels which makes for great viewing of the harbor and north shore seacoast. Two of the decks are shaded, the top deck is not. After 11am the middle and lower decks are in the shade. With the sun rising in the east you may want to have eye masks for the 6am gorgeous rush of sunlight into your bedroom.

BEST VACATION RENTAL YET!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sunrise on the Cove was a cute cottage with spectacular views of the Cove, the ocean and the Lighthouse. Only recommendation is for firmer mattresses...This year we were able to see more Family/Friends and went to more restaurants, several times... Seaport, The Village and the Boathouse. All had excellent food.Hope to return next year! Thank you for a another great and memorable vacation!

Beautiful and clean

Views are wonderful and home is well appointed and spotless! Able to watch the fishing boats come and go, and people swimming off Getty across the cove! So peaceful! There is a sheet/towel service so sheets are starched and plastic felling, that was our only complaint. Management company forgot to send us code to get in so that was a hassle upon arrival. Could use a few more “toys” (beach chairs, cooler, poles, kayak, firewood, etc. for the price) Beware, you cannot access the water from house, (not even to throw out a surf-caster), must duck to get into upstairs bed due to slanted ceiling, and downstairs bonus room smells a little musty (suggest dehumidifier). Overall wonderful!!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall our experience was good. For the expense and it being our 4th year there, it feels more like a vacation rental and business than previous years For example, there was silver ware in the drawer and glasses in the shelves that were dirty. Lots of unmatched plastic ware and Rubbermaid dishes.The dishwasher does not work properly.An animal kept getting in the garbage. I understand that happens. I would have appreciated a note telling us to leave a rock on the trash can to prevent a mess.The windows- on the inside did not look like they had been cleaned since we were there last year.The hot water in the kitchen especially is EXTREMELY hot.PLEASE put curtains in the upstairs sliding glass door. It makes for an early start for young ones without it. There is one downstairs.All the other appliances and air conditioning worked well.We love the view. We like that this is handicap accessible with our own modifications.We like the multiple floors for families staying together. We love than we can bring our little beagle.Don't change the locks the day before arrival. Our sign in information did not match what we had to do to get in. Thanks to the person who responded to our call we got inside. We were told someone tried to call us on Friday- we leave on Friday and the home number must have been used. Nobody called anyone's cell phone to alert us of the change.

What a View!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a delightful week at Sunrise on the Cove! The house is warm and welcoming, and had plenty of room for the 6 of us. The porch looking out to the ocean is the high point, and we spent long hours reading, playing cards, and just watching the boats come and go. It is QUITE sunny first thing in the morning, you will need sunglasses, but a cool ocean breeze kept things comfortable. The firepit is a great addition! Clean, well stocked kitchen. We'll be back!
