Best stay evah!
Overall a wonderful place to stay and explore the area from.
We loved having you folks... thanks for mentioning that the bed overlooks the harbor! Ha! We do have a great location and view, central yet tucked away. A pleasure to meet you both.
Glorious spot, cozy, comfortable and scenic.
Thank you for your kind words and appreciation, Hank and I look forward to your return visits to the studio with great anticipation! It's always nice to hear that you enjoyed your stay once again - we love that you love Gloucester and the area so much. Hope to see you next year!
Location
Gloucester, settled in 1623, is America's oldest seaport. Situated at the center of Cape Ann, Gloucester has one of the finest harbors in Massachusetts and remains one of the busiest fishing ports on the Eastern seaboard. Visitors are drawn to Gloucester's rich history, natural beauty, incredible beaches, fresh seafood, and on-water activities, especially the popular whale watch excursions. Gloucester also hosts a sizable artist population, many of whom can be found on Rocky Neck, the oldest working art colony in America.
