Location: Rockport, North of Boston & Greater Merrimack Valley, Massachusetts, USA (Rockport, MA)
Accommodations: Cottage, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
My country cottage is part of The Rocky Shores condo. Guests can walk down the long drive to Rockport's most scenic coast. Backyard has a stone wall with field making a picturesque location for a barbecue. There is a common grass area for guests at the top of the drive. My cottage has its own little patio with ocean and island views including the twin lighthouses of Thacher's island.
The living room also has nice views. Guests can walk the scenic coast to Loblolly cove, a quarter of a mile to fish for stripers or kayak or just explore. Swimming is available a half mile away at Pebble Beach. Larger beaches, Long Beach 1 mile, and Good Harbor two miles, fees for parking. Whale watching and deep sea fishing available in nearby Gloucester.
Downtown Rockport 2 miles with famous art galleries, shops and restaurants, also the train to Boston runs every half hour. Kayak rentals available in Rockport to explore the islands. Many guests return every year but I have room for new.
