We chose this property in Swampscott, MA in July 2025 because of its location close to the venue for our daughter’s wedding. What a great decision we made! The location was perfect as we could easily walk to restaurants and the beaches. The 3 bedrooms were good sized, the kitchen was fully equipped, the living room had ample room for the 4 of us and the 2 off street parking spots were great. We look forward to returning to this lovely condo.

Great Place!

Place was perfect as we stayed here to visit Salem. The train station was a short 4-5 minute drive and then from there about a 7 minute train ride into Salem everyday super convenient. The place was very clean and kid friendly as well. Definitely recommend this place and communication with the owners was easy and quick to respond. Thanks for the great stay

We are a family that calls the North Shore of MA our home! We have 2 small children and a senior dog, who are all 'beach bums'. Our family loves to explore the outdoors, kayaking, surfing, paddle boarding, biking, hiking, and more!

Why they chose this property

If you need any suggestions on activities we are here as your resource. We live next door to our short term rental and are excited to share our fabulous location with you! We have outfitted our rental to offer a home away from home, just like what we are looking for when we travel with our young kids.

What makes this property unique

Our property offers a prime location in a residential neighborhood and around the corner from many fabulous restaurants, cafes, a bakery, and shopping. Book a sunset glow paddle at Fisherman's Beach, or a sunset cruise from Salem Harbor. We are a 12 minute stroll to the train or a 20 min drive into Downtown Boston.

This unit is located on the 2nd floor of a 2 family home. With 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. The unit offers a full kitchen with open concept dining and flows into the living room. Our property was renovated in 2018.
