Great location in Essex

We stayed here for a weekend family event and were very pleased with our choice. The apartment is meticulous, quiet and well appointed. Wish we'd had more time to enjoy the yard, but morning coffee on the porch was lovely. the owner was easily reached and helpful. We'd happily stay again.

Quaint Country Charm!

This house is a beautiful country home, immaculate inside with a pristine landscaped property which is close to downtown Essex with antique shops and seafood restaurants. The inside of the home is furnished with classic antique furniture. The kitchen is bright and modern. There is one newly finished bathroom with a shower, 2 sinks, and stacking washer/dryer. Quality linens and plush towels were provided. We were a party of 6, 3 couples that stayed for one night. There is so much to do in the area that I wish we could have stayed another day. I highly recommend staying at this home!

Where do I even begin. I’ve stayed at other Airb&b before but this has to be hands down the best experience so far. The owner Steve was super great. He goes the extra mile to make sure your experience is absolutely the best. He has a list of places to check out and just the extra little touches they do in the house. The house was clean and spotless, they have extra things to use in the kitchen or just in case you forgot something. I definitely can’t wait to come back and stay here again! I would definitely recommend staying here!!!!! 6 stars out of 5 Anthony

Great location

We rented this property for a weekend wedding. The check in and access was incredibly easy. The location of the property is great, minutes away from great restaurants on the water. It was also a quick easy drive to Salem. The owner was super friendly and inviting. Everything you need is inside the home so we only had to get basic groceries for our stay.
