A cozy retreat for making holiday memories! Nestled in a sweet spot among beaches, Bearskin Neck, and Halibut Point, The Nest is your home base for exploring Cape Ann, Salem, Boston, and more…an oasis where friends and family (and your EV!) can relax and recharge. The Nest has everything you need for a memorable getaway. Gather in the open floorplan, or send the kids to the playroom for a movie while you enjoy quiet time in the living room or around the fire pit on the deck. Cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen—or boil lobsters!—then gather around the table for a family feast. Or retreat to one of the many private spots to work, curl up with a book, or take a nap. Our peaceful neighborhood is perfect for stargazing (on a clear night, you can see the Milky Way!) and experiencing the natural habitat. Depending on the season, you might hear frogs singing, spot fireflies flitting about, watch deer or turkeys wander through the yard, or hear coyotes howling in the distance.

The house is amazing; everything was new and the kitchen has everything that you'd need. The attention to detail and making us feel at home took a lot of thought, and we appreciate their hard work. My family was quickly engrossed in the books, games, and all that the house has to offer. We would definitely return to this house again. ##### Joseph P.

My husband & I rented “The Nest” for 6 weeks in August & September and were so impressed at the amazing attention to detail the hosts have given to a stay in their beautiful farmhouse. They have thought of everything needed to enjoy a vacation in Cape Ann. The quality of the furnishings, the kitchen and all the high end cookware and appliances…all new! The neighborhood was so private and quiet we found ourselves whispering when on the deck. The beds are very comfortable and the baths are top notch. This was the best all around house we have rented and there have been many. You can’t go wrong at “The Nest" ##### Anthony T.

This house is amazing. Spacious, clean, comfortable, and cozy. Great location in a quiet neighborhood. Loved the back deck. Kitchen was well stocked. The hosts have thought of everything. Extra pillows, blankets, charging stations by the beds, tissues in every room. Everything you need for the beach is here - towels, a beach bag, cooler, beach chairs. This place even had a crock pot- something I have always wanted in a vacation rental and have never seen before. There was cereal for our first morning and snacks available. We did not need to buy anything toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, plastic bags, soap, etc were all in abundant supply. We had a question about the tv on arrival and the hosts responded very quickly. We would definitely stay again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4edded0b-d96d-48ee-aa3d-ab2b0fc99134-1750715282264.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Diane M.

Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer B. 11 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A beautiful place to retreat, restore, and relax My husband's family has taken a summer vacation in Rockport nearly every year since the late 1950s. When "the boys" (my husband and his brother) were young, they would rent a house. Later, as the family grew, they/we stayed in hotels. Within the past five years or so, we've reverted to house rentals. Now that I am the family "matriarch," I plan our getaways. Our stay at The Nest was hands-down the best that I can remember. (I've been part of this tradition for more than 30 years.) The location, Pigeon Cove, is our favorite part of Rockport. (We spent many years at the Emerson when it was owned by the Weymusses and later, the Coateses.) The house itself is charming -- vintage New England, but brought entirely up-to-date with tech, HVAC, finishes, etc. Lisa and Wei seem to have thought of everything (appliances, dishware, cookware, spare blankets/towels) -- there's even a sweet "secret room" for little ones, stocked with toys, books, blankets -- everything a toddler might want. And talk about books! The selection of titles, on shelves throughout the house, is a book lover's dream. Thank you, Lisa and Wei. We hope to visit The Nest again next year. ##### Jennifer B.

The whole point of our trip was to enjoy some Halloween shenanigans in Salem with our kids and their grandparents. We were unable to find accommodations there, and so we fell upon Rockport. What a pleasant surprise! We explored a number of charming coastal towns, steeped in history and beautiful architecture. Salem was only half an hour away and we explored it too! Lisa and Wei are amazing hosts. Their house had everything we needed and more and was absolutely spotless. We even cooked a steak dinner on their bbq! Perfect for families with kids.

The house was beautiful and in a great location. A quick drive to the Gloucester beaches as well as Bearskin Neck. We were on a family road trip from NC to MA and spent the second half of the trip in Rockport. The house had plenty of room for our family of 5 and had the most conveniences of any VRBO we have rented. It also had to a of toys, games and books for the kids. We also selected the house bc it had all of the things we needed for the beach (chairs, toys, cooler etc) so we didn’t have to lug them from NC. The owner was also very responsive questions and communicated all necessary information promptly. We will definitely be back! ##### Steven M.

We did all the usual things that we could fit in - from Halibut Point to Bearskin Neck to Ipswich and Newburyport. Watched turkeys and deer off the deck. The house itself emerged as our true destination. Of all the vacation homes in which we have stayed, this was the best furnished, best finished, spotless and well-appointed. There are countless outlets, data ports, and charging nodes in every room for every brand of device, overhead fans and lights as well as tabletop lights, windows everywhere, tall ceilings, spacious and airy beyond expectation. Well stocked for coffee & tea, snacks, dishwasher, laundry (including white vinegar - who would think of that?), bathroom shower and paper products, and literally every dish, pot, pan and kitchen appliance anyone could dream of. There is a children's reading nook and sitting room that we retirees admired. There are hundreds of books of every genre and bookcases in every room (we resorted to making lists). We covet the couches in the living room as the ultimate in comfort. The owners' attention to every detail in their house is evident in every room. Their household products demonstrate their concern for the environment. We suspect they also have a whimsical sense of fun - we dare every visitor to play the owners' "Under the Sea Bingo", a game requiring a search through the rooms of the house. The place is aptly named The Nest. We loved this home. Thank you Lisa & Wei! ##### Anna P.

The property is beautiful, clean, very well decorated and provided everything we needed in a really well organized way. The home is 5 minutes from the beach in a nice neighborhood. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here and highly recommend it. ##### jim h.

We truly enjoyed our stay at The Nest! The owner has a gift for hospitality. We arrived to an exceptionally clean and very comfortable house that felt like home. All the added touches and amenities made this vacation rental extraordinary. The owner was very communicative and pleasant. The house is a beautifully updated old New England farmhouse. It is very cozy and beautifully decorated. Every detail such as board games, books, breakfast food for the first morning, clean linens and towels, soft blankets and an extra toothbrush were so appreciated when we arrived. Spotting wild turkeys in the backyard was a bonus! The owner has a friendly manual with recommendations for tourists to find places to see, eat, and visit with directions. The house has a spacious layout with an upstairs tv room which my autistic young adult son appreciated. Every evening during our vacation we looked forward to returning to relax. Although we didn’t need accommodations for small children, we loved the little play nook upstairs and noticed plenty of baby/toddler amenities for those with children. By far, this vacation rental was the cleanest and nicest place we have ever stayed in. We hope to return again! ##### Anne N.

Great beds. Many lovely games and puzzles and books. Special extras for young children - books and toys and special kitchen items. Very responsive hosts. Easy access to Rockport, and the North Shore. Highly recommend! ##### Steven M.

The Nest is an outstanding rental. The house is charming, decorated with humor and taste. It is exceptionally well supplied. The kitchen has a full range of new appliances, tableware and more than all the cooking equipment and staples needed by an experienced home cook. The linens are bountiful and of very high quality. There are lots of extras available throughout the house -- countless books, paper goods, extra pillows and blankets, etc. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful, a few minutes away from beaches, a park with trails, area attractions including Bearskin Neck, The Paper House, Hammond Castle Museum. Lisa was a delight to interact with from start to finish. The house is also convenient to get to from Boston -- the commuter rail stops in Rockport, a taxi ride from the station to the house was $15. Our family reunion was ever so much better than it might have been due to the comfort and calm that The Nest provided. ##### Donna H.
