Chris’s place couldn’t have been better. Immaculately clean. 5 minute walk to lobster rolls at Roy Moores, full sit down dinners at The Fish Shack, ice cream shop, galleries and stores, coffee and pastries at Brothers Brew. Beautiful views. 2 decks. 8 minutes walk to the beach. Perfection.

Great little spot in the middle of Rockport. So walkable -- to shops and to Front Beach. Loved the two decks. Great to have a parking spot for our car. Easy drives to beaches in Gloucester, Newburyport, and Manchester.

Charming cottage living with wonderful views from inside and from the large deck. Very comfortable beds and nice shower. Comfortable couch plus everything you need is here. You will love this place above the Pewter shop. Great shopping and front beach is a short walk to find seaglass. We would highly recommend staying here.

The property and host were excellent! The location was ideal, right in the heart of Rockport. It was tastefully decorated, and had all the comforts of home and more. Loved the two Decks, especially the Roof Deck. Our Host Chris was a joy to work with, and shared the history of the property, and The Pewter Shop, which goes back generations. We will be booking here again! Thank You so much!

Labor Day Weekend

The apartment is exceptional. Easy check in and great host. Perfect location, nicely decorated, very clean, comfortable furnishings and well equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed having morning coffee and our fresh lobster dinners on the deck. We had a wonderful time in Rockport and couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Perfect rental

This rental was the best mix of Rockport charm and beautiful modern updates throughout the apartment. It is beautifully decorated. The kitchen had anything you might need, the hosts were very accommodating. It was the nicest rental we have ever visited in Rockport. We also enjoyed the downtown vibe and the beautiful deck with ocean views.

Perfection

A great deal of thought went into planning this property. The use of the space was so efficient and at the same time very, very pleasant. We loved its central location to all the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed People watching from the deck and every now and then a quick ice cream run were perfect. We would definitely come back!

Top-notch place in a great location

We had the loveliest stay above The Pewter Shop. It was very clean and had everything you could possibly need, including beach bags, beach chairs and insulated cooler backpacks with ice packs in the freezer. The location on Bearskin Neck was amazing. We enjoyed walking to all the shops, restaurants, and beaches. Whale watching and sailing on a schooner were only a short drive away. 5 stars+

Five Star stay!

Chris’s place was beautifully furnished, had great storage, and felt much larger than the square footage listed in the description. Outdoor spaces were lovely and allowed for harbor views. We were less than a 5 minute walk from the Shalin Liu Performance Center and about a 5 min walk in the other direction to the headlands. The unit is above The Pewter Shop (my fave in Bearskin Neck). Chris was a very friendly and gracious host! Will definitely stay again!

Chris’ place is gorgeous!!! My friend and I went to Rockport for the American Impressionist society meeting. The place was in the perfect location for access to all the events. The rooftop deck and balcony porch were perfect for taking in the views! Chris was extremely helpful. The house is decorated to perfection and has everything you need! The parking spot was the icing on the cake. Premiere spot!

Absolutely perfect in every way!

This newly renovated apartment above the Pewter Shop exceeded our expectations in every way! The owners thought of everything! The place was stunningly decorated and so comfortable. The added touches were such a delight. Soft blankets, beach towels, coolers and basic kitchen needs were so appreciated. Chris and Mary were available for any questions and are truly delightful people. From morning coffee on the patio through to a night stroll through the quiet town, I would 100% recommend this property!

The perfect getaway for our little family

This was the first vacation that my husband and I booked since our son was born. We were not sure what to expect with the location and space but we were amazed. We had enough space for the two so us and our 1 year old, and it couldn’t have been in a better spot. It was very quiet despite the lively traffic, and the we had everything that we could have needed. You can tell immediately, that attention to detail was made. I couldn’t recommend staying here more and I look forward to returning! Thanks for having us!
