Beautiful place, very comfortable for time spent just relaxing at home, with multiple indoor and outdoor spaces. Lovely swimming in August. Great, courteous host.
Amazing views! Perfect location for exploring and dining and coming back home to relax. Well stocked with kitchen supplies, toiletries, beach towels, and beach chairs! We absolutely loved it and the kids especially enjoyed exploring during low tide. Highly recommend! Sunsets to die for
The property was beautiful and just as cozy as the pictures. Katie, the host, was very responsive and accommodating. The rooms were very comfortable and the living room area was cozy! Great vacation spot with beautiful views!
Everything was perfect! The view was overwhelmingly beautiful, and sunsets were a highlight. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to navigate. The bedrooms were so cozy and comfy. The bathrooms were beautiful, especially the double shower head one upstairs. Modern and traditional all at once. If I come back to Massachusetts, this is where I'll be staying again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful waterfront property. Thank you so much for providing a beautiful home and a wonderful vacation for our family!
We were looking for a quiet vacation for just the two of us and this place was perfect for it. The view was really wonderful and the place was really comfortable.
The on-line listing of for Evensong, including photos, was very helpful and accurate. The view of the water from inside the house was beautiful, and ever-changing.All in all, we had a great stay.
We had a fantastic four over nights. Everything we needed was there. The view was spectacular. It was a great location for visiting Boston. Salem and Newburyport. Katie is a wonderful hostess, from the time I booked until we left she would get right back to me with my many questions.
We absolutely loved this property! All of the comforts of home and even some extra touches that made it even more special like binoculars for bird watching and some local beer. Beds were comfortable, plenty of blankets and a very cozy fireplace. I would not hesitate to stay again, stop scrolling if you’re looking to stay in the area!
The house was so beautiful. Can't beat the views. The host replied promptly to texts about questions. The beds were comfy and the location was very convenient.
This property is absolutely charming and its owner/manager, Katie, ensures that your stay is wonderful. We enjoyed a beautiful, relaxing week of ever-changing and expansive water views. The house is clean, nicely appointed and conveniently located near both Gloucester and Rockport. We can't wait to return!

Hi! We purchased and renovated this beautiful home during the COVID shutdown and hope to retire here someday. Katie works in Gloucester and loves anything involving the ocean. We fell in love with the view here, especially the sunset, and look forward to sharing it with you.
