The Perfect Spot

What a perfect spot to enjoy Rockport and the Cape Ann area! The house was spotless and had everything we needed. It was the perfect size for 5 adults. We would easily stay here again and really hope to actually do so one day soon.

Perfect spot for our holiday weekend

We had wonderful time staying at this home perched high on a ledge overlooking the ocean and awakening to amazing sunrises. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were very comfortable with wonderful linens. The location is very convenient to the village of Rockport and other area attractions. We feel very fortunate that we picked this special place to celebrate Christmas with our family.

The "View Cottage"

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This view really has to be seen to be believed. I like to stay in a place that is in a beautiful setting and this was it in any weather. Having it all on one level was great for my 88 year old father. You can go into the busy town but then feel like your're totally out of the fray in this beautiful spot. It's a very homey and comfortable house with a feeling of happy memories in it.

Gorgeous getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were in town for a wedding in Gloucester and, despite the slight headache of traveling back and forth, are so glad we stayed in Rockport. This house was just what we needed for us, our little one, and his grandparents. It was fairly kid-friendly and we moved some things around to make sure it was, there were toys and kid sized chairs, and the view can't be beat. We love the addition of the binoculars! We would love to return to Rockport and certainly recommend this home to anyone looking to be close to everything but with privacy and a perfect view.

As lovely as I thought it would be!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view at “The View” is as wonderful as it looks in the pictures, and then some. Other than one day of a view of pea soup fog (post tropical storm Henri) and one day without the a/c working, everything was perfect! My brother really enjoyed being able to watch a baseball game and the ocean at the same time. I’ve been renting from AVH for 9 years and I’ve seen places come on and then go off the rental market – I do hope “The View” is available again. Glad I spotted it as a new rental this year!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fantastic time in the home. It is two bed and two bath. A single person can be very comfortable in the sun room as you can close both sliders and curtains for privacy. There is a trundle but it might be a bit tight for two. The kitchen is very well appointed and the refrigerator is huge. The property is spotless and the company supplied way more towels and blankets than we could use! This was at the top end of our budget but we did not regret one moment!

Sweeping views & lovely sunrises

Thanks for an enjoyable stay in Rockport. The property featured a well-stocked kitchen, new appliances and breathtaking vistas of the water. Unfortunately, the timing of our autumn visit was after several businesses (retail shops/galleries/restaurants) already closed or operated on a significantly reduced schedule. We spent time on walks around Rockport and in Halibut State Park. We recommend checking out the local performance center (Shalin Liu) which attracts strong talent to the area. Brothers Brew donuts were also noteworthy.

Wicked views!

The whole process was very easy! The property is in a great location, like everyone says the pictures don’t do the views justice!! A little updating would be great, the main bathroom they did nice work! The master bedroom and bathroom needs a lot of work, doesn’t disrupt your stay though ,everything is functional and clean! Rockport and the surrounding area is beautiful a secret hidden gem!

The view is magnificent and the location worked well for exploring Cape Ann. The high price of the rental justified by the spectacular view and setting.

The View says it all! Best view ever.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at many Cape Ann coastal property rentals and this was the best. Won't stay anywhere else if we don't have to. Property was as described in ad. Clean, well cared for, everything you need - lots of coffee pods, sugar, tea, spices, dishes, cookware, etc. We did less running around than we usually do because we loved being there so much. My aunt came down from Maine for two nights and the house has a great layout for that. She had her own room and bathroom at one end and the master bed and bath was at the other end. Would be a perfect setup for two couples or people with kids as the day room has a trundle bed. Overall excellent rental. We took a cruise on the Thomas E Lannon - always enjoyable, but several other outings were cancelled due to weather. We lived in Gloucester for awhile a few years back and love it. Had to leave for a job, but hope to return permanently someday. Great community. Restaurants consistently provide great food and service.

Reviewer Comments: We loved "The View" for its simplicity, wonderful location (quiet, a stroll from Rockport and its shops and restaurants and the beaches), cleanliness and as the name says, fantastic view of Rockport. It suited our needs (family of 3 with small dog) perfectly and offered the amenities we needed. AVH also assisted us in arranging pet care which was very helpful. Overall, an excellent experience.

It seems to have everything a renter would need. The kitchen looks beautifully up to date with a big fridge. We woke up every morning to gorgeous sunrises and watched the lobster boats go out. The views are spectacular from this cottage! We swam at Back Beach and dined on Bearskin Neck and in Essex. A pleasant and memorable stay.
