Cape Ann in the winter is quiet and beautiful. The room was large and comfortable— great shower, a fridge if you choose to bring food and wine for an in-room picnic. It was quiet and we barely heard other guests staying upstairs. Easy check-in and check-out. Lovely view, as well!

This was such a great little place to stay. An old historical home decorated very modern and tastefully. Everything was comfortable and the staff was very accommodating. It's remote staffing and I thought that was very interesting The person monitoring remotely was very accommodating very quick to respond to everything. This stay was very nice.
I would definitely be returning to stay here on my next trip to Rockport! They did a really good job at this place

Gorgeous property nestled in a quiet neighborhood that is walking distance to a small waterfront town center. The property was clean and quiet and my partner and I had a lovely weekend stay.

What a lovely stay!!! The house is absolutely beautiful and my room was largely and well-designed. That might be the best night’s sleep ever! The bed was crazy comfortable, with lovely linens and it was so quiet and peaceful! Perfect location!! Walked just a few blocks past lovely historic homes to the Rockport waterfront. LOVED IT!!!

Clean and comfortable. First experience with remote staff who were very responsive. However, we and a number of guests we spoke to would have liked more information on how to use the keypad entry, tv, and the coffee machine. Those were areas where it would have been handy to have someone to ask.
