The house sits on a lakefront property with a large backyard, grill, 2 new patios, and a private dock with canoe, kayak, lake floaties, life jackets, fishing poles, hammock, and kids climbing structure. We are including pictures of the downstairs as this has remained the same. Some furniture will be updated but the long dining table, chairs, work desk and couch remain the same. The second floor of the house was fully renovated in 2024/25\. We are still completing the master bath. We will be posting updated pictures of the upstairs shortly but if you would like more details, please message me. This place truly is a little slice of heaven. As soon as you walk into the living room you are met by a breathtaking view of the lake and behind you sits an incredible fireplace. The fireplace works; we ask that only duraflame logs are used. The kitchen is fully equipped with plates and dishes for up to 6 people. Work from home desk in the sunroom overlooking the lake with a sit down / standup desk option. There is one bed on the the first floor in its own room off of the living room. This room does not have doors so it is not fully private but it is a step up from a pullout couch as you do not need to convert the living room into a bedroom. This downstairs room has a full size bed. There is a full bathroom on the first floor with toilet and shower. Upstairs on the second floor are two new bedrooms, both with king size beds. The master bedroom has three large windows that overlook the lake. There are also two new bathrooms, one with a shower over a soaker tub and the other with a beautiful stand alone soaker tub and a large separate shower. The house has driveway parking for up to 3 cars. Lots of walking trails that can be reached from the house. Downtown Essex is only a short bike ride or 5 minute car ride away. For anyone with children, we offer a pack n play upon request. We also have a high chair, safety gate, a set of toddler dishes, an indoor play tent, balance bike, and lots of toys. We have an extra child size blow up mattress upon request. For anyone looking to work from the house we have an Uplift work from home desk located in the sunroom overlooking the lake. We have a yoga mat, light weights, and exercise bands for anyone that enjoys a workout at home. Yoga overlooking the lake is truly wonderful! The lake is a wonderful place to visit any time of year. Lots of charming towns to visit nearby. Swimming and boating in the summer, ice skating and ice fishing in the winter. Boston is a 45 minute drive or an hour by train. The train station is 15 minutes from the house in Manchester-by-the-sea. There are several beaches close by, including the famous singing beach in Manchester. The house is a 5 minute drive from the local restaurants and brewery in Essex, including The James which is family run and looks forward to hosting our guests! Several grocery stores 15-20 minutes away. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - Up to 23 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping on request - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the sea - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Boat - Kayak - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 2,600 square feet ## Similar properties ![Lobby sitting area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118790000/118784600/118784552/389439b0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Atlas Hotel Allston - Pet-friendly - Restaurant - Air-conditioning - Gym 10 Exceptional 16 reviews £259 includes taxes & fees 5 Apr - 6 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=118784552&PinnedHotelID=118784552&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Reception](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/6000000/5100000/5096400/5096314/ac96ff43.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hyatt Place Boston/Braintree North Braintree - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 9.0 Wonderful 2,730 reviews £95 includes taxes & fees 30 Mar - 31 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=5096314&PinnedHotelID=5096314&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/550000/544800/544729/0f054608.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Staybridge Suites Boston - Burlington by IHG Burlington - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included 9.4 Exceptional 266 reviews £110 includes taxes & fees 23 Apr - 24 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-23&endDate=2026-04-24&selected=544729&PinnedHotelID=544729&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property amenity](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/20000/13800/13788/d3e4029f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Four Points by Sheraton Wakefield Boston Htl&Conference Cntr Wakefield - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 8.6 Excellent 1,000 reviews £111 includes taxes & fees 13 Apr - 14 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-13&endDate=2026-04-14&selected=13788&PinnedHotelID=13788&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House (3 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118640000/118631100/118631042/6d5733dd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 1 Mi to Beach: Manchester-by-the-sea Retreat!

Our group was all adults, but this house and property was well set up for families with young children. Downsides included WiFi issues to start, bedding issues, and an initial concern about an algae bloom in the lake which resolved itself after a day or two but would have been a major limitation given we chose the rental based on the water access. ##### Elizabeth M.

I really enjoyed the hosts welcome packet, very informative and the food suggestions were delicious!! I do think the “bedroom” downstairs needs some way to be closed off, you couldn’t go into kitchen without waking up whoever was sleeping in there. BUT we were aware the space was not enclosed at time of booking and we really enjoyed the property! ##### arielescape2009 Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth J. 26 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Lake Cottage We stayed at this lovely cottage on our trip to Salem,Ma and it is conveniently located within about 20 mins to Salem. While we were not visiting Salem we ventured around Gloucester and visited many delicious restaurants and viewed the ocean. 10/10 recommend and look forward to coming back! ##### Elizabeth J.

Had a magnificent time staying in this house for a week, as was very short drive to Salem and grocery stores right around the corner. Captured a wonderful wildlife video of two ducks looking for and finding a place to nest at the edge of the property near the lake. Which is just a few steps out back and you're ready to go fishing off your own private dock, or just feed the ducks and fish, it's fun. Secluded and private and neighbors are friendly all around. I'm kind of jealous of all the nice things made available as if my home had such lovely artifacts and pre-stocked home necessities like toilet paper and towels, bedding etc...This wonderful place is going to be seeing us again in the near future, as we have all agreed that this is our new favorite place to stay when coming back to Salem some day. And I must say, by the way, you also try to have a good day today, in some way, okay. Mark S. ##### mark s.
