My family had the best three nights at Darryls place. The beach was absolutely stunning, and the location couldn’t have been better. The house was very cozy and gave us everything we needed! Really grateful Darryl had a high chair for our toddler. Darryl was a great host, who was very accommodating and helpful. We will absolutely be staying here again!

4BR Oceanfront Rockport Vacation on Long Beach!
Great location, very quiet and peaceful with a great ocean view and accessibility to the beach. The house was great, plenty of space and clean and well taken care of. Rachel was wonderful, very communicative and friendly, and her instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Highly recommend for a peaceful, relaxing stay!

Waterfront Getaway in Historic SALEM
We had a great stay here! Location is perfect! Extremely dog friendly area, lots to see and do and very walkable. We’d love to return when it’s warmer! Gary’s place is beautiful and even nicer in person.

Sandy Toes | Ocean Views | Steps to Beach | Deck
7 Lowell Street is a magnificent rental in the heart of beach living in Seabrook. Literally 75 steps to the beach boardwalk path in a lovely beach community. Well appointed, clean, as described, plenty of parking and so many great gathering spots inside and out. This house easily accommodates a crowd without feeling crowded. Sean was immediately responsive to a few minor questions I had. He also checked in with me on day one to make sure I had what I needed. We loved the tee-pee in the children’s room and the children’s books. A tiny detail but notable… the cleaning staff folded every toilet paper roll into a sailboat! We loved our stay and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Ocean Park Retreat
I can’t say enough about how wonderful this beautiful little spot is! We felt so cared for and welcomed, and truly they thought of everything. We had an amazing visit to Boston, and spent mornings in Salem and Marblehead, which was such a perfect New England town. We would recommend and would certainly stay again if given the chance! Absolutely wonderful hosts!

Ocean Views at Casa de Mar near Salem & Boston
We had a wonderful time in Somerset. Linda’s place is amazingly clean. Had everything we needed. Loved the view! I would stay here again.

mermaid surf bungalow on good harbor beach
We had a wonderful stay! The house was even nicer than I expected and being able to walk to good harbor beach every day with our dog was amazing. Everything was clean, comfortable and the kitchen was in great condition. Would love to stay there again sometime when it is warm out to enjoy the rest the area has to offer!

Spacious 2BR Steps To Beach. 2.4 miles to Salem 28
Micheal and Susan are quick to respond and resolve any minor issues that arise. The space feels like home and is comfortable spot to stay a few nights. It’s close to the ocean, and has a full kitchen allowing you to prepare meals. Look forward to staying again if in the area again in future!
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

We stayed here for the pool for the kids (which was open, some recent reviews said it had been closed) and the beach access. Rooms seem new and it was quiet. You can find free parking right in front or pretty close around the beach.

Good very good 👍

Beachfront Designer Cottage
Private beachfront home rentals

Blue Magnolia
We had an incredible stay at Mike's house! The location was perfect, just a stone's throw from Salem, with a wealth of historical sites to explore nearby. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making us feel right at home. Mike and his wife were outstanding hosts, always available to help with any questions or issues we encountered. Their friendliness and hospitality truly enhanced our experience. Our visit coincided with Halloween, and it was simply magical. The house, combined with the festive spirit of the season, made for the best Halloween experience we've ever had. We can’t wait to return and create more memories at Mike's place! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a charming getaway.

Cottage with stunning ocean view and private beach
Lovely location and beautifully renovated home. Kitchen well appointed. Beds comfortable. Host very responsive. Would return.

Oceanfront Beach House with Spectacular Views
Extremely nice place, beds were super comfortable, home is beautiful right on the water, everything was easy to find and use. Very easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend this place!

Family Cottage by the Beach & Downtown + Parking
We had the most wonderful week at Rockport, and this house made us feel right at home! The house itself was cozy, clean and incredibly spacious - the upstairs living room was the best for hanging out, playing board games & watching movies on the projector. As for the location - it doesn’t get better than this. A quiet neighborhood just a skip away from the beach & plenty of restaurants, shops and more. Lastly, the host (Jake) & his family were incredibly responsive, helpful and kind - always answering quickly and thoughtfully. All of that to say, we will definitely be back!

Comfy 3 BR beach cottage, 2 min walk to the beach
Kim was very responsive. I was not able to see the August lock link to get in, but she was able to assist with that. We had an issue with the heat the first night and she got right on getting a plumber and had space heaters in the unit to get us through the first night. She also refunded some money for that first night's troubles, which was really appreciated. Easy walk to the beach and we got lucky and had a decent day in March to walk it a little. Thanks for sharing your space.

Rooftop View & King-Size Comfort
Jody's place is beautiful and a wonderful way to experience New England. The neighborhood is extremely walkable and the place is in close proximity to Salem and many other things to see and do.

Rockport Gallery Suite
What a gorgeous place in a historic town that was exactly what we needed! Communication and instructions were easy to understand. Lots of extra towels and linens, pillows, blankets. I only wish we could have stayed longer, we’ll have to come back in the summer.

Big Island Pond Lake House Hampstead
This place was amazing. We stayed here the night before our wedding and the night after and Justin and Alyssa were amazing with giving us an early check-in and helping us along the way. The inside was amazingly clean had everything we needed will surely rent again.
