Our family enjoyed staying at this house for 2 weeks in July09. What a wonderful surprise! The house has a marvelously equipped kitchen. The entire house appears recently renovated and is in tip-top shape. The wrap-around porch is a real treat - especially on rainy days. At night it's quiet and private, but still an easy drive during the day to Cape Ann locations. The owner was very responsive to all questions and it's clear this property is well cared for.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children, girls getaway.

From the moment we arrived we were astounded by how beautiful the house and surrounding area is. Everything we needed was available. From linens and towels to cookware and outside/beach chairs, coolers, and kayak. The house is located on a very private road with access to Diamond Cove and nearby Lighthouse Beach. We have never experienced a vacation like this one. We all relaxed for hours on the beautiful porch(even the children ages 3, 10 & 15). Plenty of space to play on the sides of the house provided hours of entertainment including wiffleball and volleyball. Every inch of the house has been updated and is very pleasant. The kitchen is fully equipped. There really is no need to bring anything but your clothes and food. We went on a different adventure each day. Uncroweded beaches and places to fish or walk kept everyone satisfied. This is truly a hidden gem that we look forwars to returning to for years to come.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.

Nine of us shared this lovely secluded home , and found it well equipped, clean and comfortable. Though we had rain much of our stay, friendly livingroom , a bright kitchen for many card games and the wide covered porch provided extra space to spread out and grill. Nearby beaches and Annisquam Light house are lovely . The owner was prompt to reply and very helpful answering all of our questions. Lovely gem!Recommended for: Families with teenagers.
