Cute accommodations with a riverside view. Our family’s stay was cozy. The owner of the property communicated really well and even thought of little things (ice in the freezer, bakery cookies awaiting our arrival, etc.) that made our stay more comfortable and enjoyable.
Our son recently moved to Massachusetts and they live in an apartment. We only had a 10 minute drive to visit and the location is centrally located to everything. We will definitely be back to stay here again.
The house is very conveniently located near the expressway and Boston airport. It was a quick drive (when traffic was light). The bedrooms are good sized and are upstairs which was nice if one of us was up earlier than the other.

Thank you for leaving a review! We are so pleased that you and your extended family enjoyed celebrating the holiday at our property.
Property was great. Lovely early morning views on the River. Only complaint is the level of road noise on Lowell. Certainly not the owners fault.

Thank you for your feedback. I know the road is busy which can be loud. We try to mitigate road noise with the plantation blinds, fully-lined curtains and white noise machine in the bedroom on the road side. I'm sorry the road was a nuisance. I hope you enjoyed touring around the area!
Mary was very assessable and provided accurate information. Although the house could use some updating overall, it was a pleasurable experience.

My brother and I stayed while we were visiting family. We found the home clean and comfortable with easy access to the highways we needed. It provided a cozy relaxing atmosphere after a day of running. Mary, the host responded quickly to questions and was very easy to work with. All in all, a great stay. Will rent again when I the area.
We wanted a home centrally located for family visits. The location is ideal…easy on/off 93. Plenty of good restaurants within two mile of house. It was a straight shot to downtown Lowell for the iconic folk festival. The house was well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. Everything was really clean. The one time we needed to reach out to property manager she answered our question promptly. We had no issues at all with Recommend highly.

Mary was extremely informative in any questions we had regarding our stay. She was quick to respond. While the property is older New England, my The inside of it was very comfortable and clean. The stairs may be an issue for anyone who may have handicap disability. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of room and more importantly the sunporch that faces their Merrimack river in the back was a delight. We will rebook with her for future visits.

Thank you for your kind review of our townhouse on the river in Methuen. I'm happy that you enjoyed your stay and hope you come back to stay with us again. It is a two story property which does not work well for handicap accessibility. We don't advertise the townhouse as handicap accessible.
My husband and I celebrated a wonderful Christmas with our 4-year-old granddaughter and son. The home was very roomy for all her gifts to be opened and set up for play.The kitchen is spacious and well-stocked. The dining area was situated perfectly to serve a lavish Christmas dinner. The coffee service area is a very nice touch with an assortment of coffees and teas. Mugs provided. The enclosed porch has a lovely view of the river. The parking garage was accessible with a functional remote garage door opener. The bedrooms and bathrooms are fully equipped and accommodating. Extra bedding and towels are provided. Also, the basement has a washer and dryer for your convenience. Enjoyed our stay!

About the host
Hosted by Mary Bilodeau
I enjoy hosting travelers in our property on the river. I love hearing where people are from and what brings them to our area.
Why they chose this property
I grew up in Methuen and I love our location on the river. It's a convenient location for guests visiting Massachusetts. We are a half an hour north of Boston off Route 93 and about a half an hour from beach communities like Newburyport/Salisbury and the NH coast.
What makes this property unique
Our property has a beautiful location on the water with a fenced yard and access to the river for anyone who brings their own kayak. It's relaxing but close to the highway and lots of shopping/food options.
