Wonderful stay a short drive from Boston with fantastic views on the water!! My family loved being so close to the water while still having so many food and entertainment options nearby!
The property was very nice!
Warm and cozy, there was plenty of room for our family.
The view of Boston across the bay was beautiful!
We had a lot of fun on the beach.
A friend and I were visiting a relative in Boston but didn't want to stay in the city. This was an excellent location for us since it's only a 20 to 30 minute drive away. The apartment is very eclectic with fun decorative touches and an interesting history. Susan was an excellent host and responded quickly to all our requests for information. The view of Boston across the water is stunning. It's an easy 20-minute walk to a grocery and good restaurant which also offers delivery. The only real negative was traffic noise at night. It didn't interfere with our sleeping; but if you are accustomed to complete quiet, it may. Overall, we would not hesitate to stay here again.
It was a lovely stay at this Nice and warm place with a lovely view right across the street from the seawall. The host is accessible and attentive. I highly shighlrecommend staying here

We found it very charming and comfortable. We had a wonderful time and the view was amazing. Loved all the special touches it felt like home.
Enjoyed being out of Boston and being close to public transportation to get to Boston. Know it was going to be hectic but all the people running in the race and everyone cheering all throughout the course was absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing your house and the history of it.
This quaint harbor view cottage reminded me of visiting my grandparents during the summer. This cottage, which in the 1940s was the local general store, has been transformed into a quirky and homey cottage. The floor may not be 100% level, but it is original hardwood and very clean and in good condition. It was furnished with lovely antiques and comfortable beds. The kitchen was well stocked and all the appliances worked perfectly. There are 2 window air conditioning units in the cottage for your comfort, and table fans if needed. We went in October with perfect weather, so didn’t use either the air conditioners or the heat. The crowning jewel of this place is the view, and the availability of a rocky beach for shell and beach glass hunting right across the street. The host was always available for any concerns, even at midnight when we arrived and had some initial questions. Its location close to the ferry makes it very easy to take a day trip into Boston. I would definitely stay here again.
Located right across from the water. The house was perfect for our needs as a family of three. The kitchen was well stocked including spices, condiments, coffee, and some food items. The host was very responsive to every message.
Comfortable oceanfront property. This was a wonderful place to come back to every evening. The Hosts were wonderful. Communication could not have been better.Thanks for sharing your property with us!
Wonderful stay. We wanted to be close to the ocean. This Vrbo is right by the ocean. You can see Boston’s skyline. The host is wonderful. Everyone in Boston, Quincey, and Salem were so friendly.
The home was lovely and had everything we needed. The host was quick to respond and super helpful.
The dogs loved the beach and the location was perfect for our week in Boston.
Five stars!
This was a great stay. We travel often and always use VRBO. We loved the quirky floors of the old building. Took me back to my childhood in my grampas farm house. Then when I learned the history of the property, I fell in love. Definitely recommend for families
It was an amazing location in a beautiful clean house. Our host was wonderful and her neighbors were very friendly. The house was right off the water and it was a nice drive to downtown Boston.
We had the best time here. House was excellent and the owner was amazing. She has a lot of stuff there you can do. Kayaks, fishing poles, metal det. And so much more. We had a blast looking for shells and seaglass when the tides were out. Great views as well!! Would definitely stay there again.
Traveling with my mother and young adult niece, we choose this spot to have a quiet, safe spot to call home base after touring the city. This spot met the mark! All the essentials were provided, and it was super easy to call in a grocery delivery or food order when needed. Transport into town via Uber was convenient enough and still cost significantly less than a rental car for our stay would have been. And the view and access to water are added bonuses. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, safe spot that is convenient to surrounding areas. We will return!
Overall the property was perfect for out needs. Amazing location righr acroas the street from a small beach. Room for our 3 kids. Close to the ferry and Boston.
Only cons are in the listing it says toys, video games, childrens kitchen things supplied. They are not. No body wash. And my husband had to run to home depot to fix one of the twin bedframes the first night there and repair the door knob to the master bedroom.
O erall great experience. Amazing responsive kind host.
Perfect Location for Exploring the Beach and the City!
We had a fabulous stay here over the week of the Fourth of July! My kids loved visiting the beach right out front every morning and night. At low tide, there is a small strip of beach and the kids found crabs and other ocean life. At high tide, the water comes all the way up to the side of the flood wall. The kids loved kayaking right out front too! The apartment was well stocked and the host was incredibly generous and welcoming, with beach towels and body boards we could take on our beach day to nearby Nantasket Beach. She also dropped off some fun Fourth of July hats and noisemakers, which was so sweet! The apartment is also well situated for a ferry ride or a drive into downtown. We took the ferry from Quincy one day and also drove in to town, which only took about 20 min. Near to the original Dunkin’ Donuts and a great grocery store too. Comfortable beds and everything else that we needed. Would stay again, highly recommend!
Was going to Boston for Kane Brown concert at Fenway Park with my 2 sons and boyfriend. Decided to make it a little vacation. Once decided that knew I needed a place to do some fishing. First night there went to Coop’s Bar & Grill. Delicious food. Next day went down to the bait shop to gather a few supplies to fish off Nut Island Pier. After fishing went to Off the Hook restaurant. Food was okay. Went back to fish more. I was the only one to anything which was a striper. Fishing in the evening at the pier gets very crowded. Locals are trying to catch squid. Next day spent some time in Boston. Would have liked to have been there longer but I did get to Cheers bar. I like food there & grabbed a souvenir. To be the last day went to Canton for Top Golf then to Boston for Wahlburgers and the concert. All was good till I realized I lost the car rental key. I had better luck with the property owner helping me problem solve than being able to get a hold of the car rental place with their 24 hour assistance. Once everything was solved with car was able to head home a few hours later than what was planned. But it all worked out. Thank you to Deborah and Susan.
