Nice Details!

We only stayed one night, but would return to stay at this property for a longer stay. Loved the little details, books, record player, jacuzzi. Clean and well kept. Easy walking distance to shops and waterway.

Lovely Newburyport Stay

My family and I stayed one night in this fabulous house. It was absolutely perfect. It was walking distance to the downtown, which was exactly what we were looking for. My husband and I enjoyed coffee together in the morning while listening to the record played and reading those adorable husband & wife “little books”. What a perfect addition. We will definitely be back!

Such a perfect house

This house was just perfect. It was well appointed, thoughtfullyy designed, historical, close to town and close to the water walkway and just overall really comfortable. The bedding felt luxurious and the linens were generous. If you’re not an early to rise kind of person, you might want to bring an mask for your eyes, because the skylights will get you up early.

Thank you for your valuable suggestion! We are planning to create a small folder in the home that includes all important rules and policies, as well as useful information about laundry, trash, security, and other amenities. This will make it easier for guests to access everything they need quickly without having to search online.
