The apartment was beautifully decorated, comfortable, and clean. Diane was very accommodating and accessible. We were a little disappointed that the Loft was located so far from the Harbor area but the description was not misleading. We enjoyed walking to Plum Cove Beach with our family. ##### Susan P.

It was conveniently located close to the Cove Cafe where we picked up breakfast pastries and delicious sandwiches for our beach picnics at Plum Cove, Wingaersheek and Long Beach. The Lanesville Package Store was an easy walk to pick up snacks and wine. Walking down the hill to Lanes Cove was wonderful for sunsets and brought back many memories of time spent there during my early summers. This one is a keeper! ##### Diane B C.

I have been all over MA for weekend stays but never made it to the North Shore. This was my favorite vacation by far. The loft was in a great location - a five minute walk to a lovely resident only beach where we spent an afternoon and then stopped again at sunset to see the most beautiful sunset I have seen in ages. The actual accommodations were wonderful. Clean, comfortable and in a very safe area. Dianne the host was great and offered a suggestion for dinner at Tonno which was some of the best seafood we have ever had. We loved the loft and we will definitely be back to visit!! ##### Erin B. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan H. 2 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Short Gloucester Stay Beautiful place, Excellent for two people. Far enough from Gloucester center to be away from the hubbub. Is on a bus line, and taxi service is available, so that you may enjoy Gloucester without having to worry about parking. There is a small cafe that makes incredible sandwiches, pastry, coffee and breakfasts which is a local favorite. A liquor store is also within a minute walk away. There is a local beach that is within a five-minute walk, and as a bonus there are beautiful sunsets to be seen at the beach. The Vrbo has air conditioning but may not be necessary as a nice breeze can be felt if the screened door on the balcony is left open. We loved this place and will return. ##### Dan H. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff K. 1 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful getaway My wife and I spent five nights at Diane's home. Everything was wonderful from the time we walked into her home, until the time we left. All the necessities were there, making her home very welcoming. When we return to Gloucester, we will definitely stay at Diane's home again. One suggestion is that the beautiful lake behind your home is hidden by a large tree (I think on your property). If it was trimmed back, the view would be spectacular. Thank you, Diane. Jeff and Dilyse ##### Jeff K.

My only very minor issues are that the property pictures should be updated to reflect the current situation. The picture on the back deck leaves the impression you can see the ocean, you cannot, sadly the tree has grown enough to block that view. The other is that wine is part of your welcoming. We had none. Minor issues certainly, otherwise great place! ##### Jim H.

Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Maggie T. 9 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in The Loft is a very comfortable apartment-perfect for a couple, spotlessly clean and ideally situated to explore this beautiful area. We always found parking outside the door. We liked sitting on the balcony which is private and quiet, although the neighbouring tree has grown and obscured the view of the cove, but a 5-min walk and you’re there. ##### Maggie T. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Erin C. 2 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The Loft was a delightful place to stay. The locations was fantastic. The only reason we didn't give it a 5 star is because of the basement. We both have mildew allergies so we couldn't use the laundry(washer & dryer) or beach chairs that were down there. Diane was super understanding and brought us some of her beach chairs to use. ##### Erin C.

Quiet and a perfect place to watch the sunset. Very clean and nicely decorated. Loved being able to take the train into Salem. We were disappointed that there wasn't a grill. The owner thought it had been removed from the listing. Other then that, it was great! ##### Nicolette C.

Listing is accurate. The back deck was my favorite feature and I loved having my coffee outside each morning. The location in the heart of Lanesville makes it feel like a resort where you can easily walk to the ocean and play on the stone pier at Lanes Cove. The nearby Cove Cafe serves good coffee and lunch and we became regulars during our trip. We will return! ##### Molly P.
