A little hideaway that seems just right for America's oldest art colony and fishing community. The little spiral stairway gives it character (though not for all) getting to the lovely bedroom.

Cozy apartment in great location

We enjoyed our stay in the apartment. It was clean, comfortable, and the check in process was easy. There is an information book with tips, where to find things, etc. and a guest book for recommendations from prior guests on things to see and places to eat. The location was perfect for us to travel out on day trips to Boston, Newburyport, or just wandering around Gloucester.

Anniversary Trip in Gloucester

This property was in a quiet peaceful part of Gloucester. It was easy to get around to restaurants and shops and to nearby beaches as well. The property was well taken care of and set up. I also deeply appreciated how clean the property was, this rental was exceptionally clean compared to most rentals. We throughly enjoyed our short stay here, and would definitely visit again!
