The Neighborhood:
For those familiar with the area, please note that the space formerly occupied by the restaurant below is currently vacant and inactive.

It’s the perfect setup for a serene getaway!
The Rocky Neck Art Colony is a charming, walkable neighborhood offering a vibrant mix of galleries, local artists, and charming waterfront cafés — only 10 minutes from downtown Gloucester. For those craving outdoor adventure, Ravenswood Park features serene hiking trails through woodlands and marshes, making it a perfect nature escape. For dining, head to The Causeway for a laid-back spot with hearty seafood dishes, or enjoy an upscale, authentic Italian meal at Tonno in Downtown Gloucester.

Host was very responsive to our questions prior to arrival. House was exactly as it appears online, beautiful, clean with great views of the harbor. House is within walking distance to a wine bar, art studios and fantastic restaurant where we had a fantastic meal. If we are ever in Gloucester again, we would gladly stay here. If you're planning a trip to Gloucester, I definitely would recommend you stay at Smith Cove...you won't be disappointed.
