House was beautiful and steps from the beach. Walking distance to the board walk. The only complaint is that there was a lot of dog hair and no towels other than that my family and I had an amazing vacation!! Will totally be staying here again.

We had an adult family of 5 and a dog. Our stay was late summer, and the weather was pleasant. It's great that we could bring our pup along and not have to board her. The path to the beach is right across the street. However the beach is loaded with rip currents, and I didn't see too many swimmers. It's an older home, with no A/C, but that was not relevant during our stay, and they had fans. Beds were comfortable. You're a very easy walk to the boardwalk area, and a drive of 10 minutes away from the cool little city of Newburyport. Had to buy a couple staples that they were out of, no big deal. We had a nice stay.

Loved the location and home!

Other than getting hot at night it was perfect! Easy walk to the beach with kids and equipment and not too crowded. Easy walk to the center but not too close. We loved the home and location. Great stay my kids are begging to go back next year!

Wonderful weather it was a GREAT stay with my children and grandchildren.

Check in was super simple Loved the large dining area and table to sit us all. Wish there had been more counter space but having a washer and dryer was perfect. Put towels on top of washer and dryer to protect them and stored bread rolls and Tupperware ob top so it worked well. All in all it was wonderful.

Father's day weekend get away

I booked this last minute for what ended up being a father's day/end of school vacation. We had a great stay for our little getaway. I wish it could have been longer. Carrie was very accommodating and a gracious host. Fantastic location, right across the street from the beach. Quiet neighborhood. I loved the toys provided and that there was only 1 TV. Ample space in the house and it was nice not to have folks above or below us. The kids were able to unplug and enjoy a good old fashioned summer weekend using their imaginations and playing together. We would definitely stay again.

Overall

Overall we had a good time. Restaurants were not that accommodating. House was quaint. Had character. Some things do need to be updated. Carrie was AMAZING during the entire rental process and during. Did wish there was a fenced in yard and wish we were on the beach. There wasn't a view of the water. It was very easy to get to the beach. We didn't want to drive but did wish there was a little bit more to do but we did enjoy our time.

I wish my stay was as good as the other reviewers. U just dont see those being that

Booked 2 nights during a heat wave. Upon getting the code to enter, the house was so hot and uncomfortable that we couldn't even stay there. The house was way too hot. There was no ac. Only 1 fan. Not even a window ac unit. I have an 8year old that i couldn't have stay there. There was just no way, so we ended up driving all the way back to RI. Very disappointing Also, the lack of communication that day of check in from the host made it that much worse. Not sure what I was supoosed to do half the time when resching our to the host. I called multiple times to get the code to enter with an hour delay. The host had very poor response time. No call back when i called to ask about ac. Tried to use the shower before we left (ee did not stay) but the shower head had mold and the house is really old and you can tell there was water damage throughout the building. No way to use the house during the day if i needed to make breakfast and lunch. I just don't think its worth the amount I paid when you have way better options on Salisbury beach for less than that. And of course they won't issue a refund. Very disappointing overall Perhaps they should mention in their description, NO Air conditioning. That would be a deal breaker for some people.

PROS: Host was very communicative. House was in great location, right across from a beach access point and close to the center. Basic necessities were stocked. The host provided beach essentials, a beach cart, and a cooler bag for use. The main living space is open and airy. There an extra sleeping space on the main floor with a futon. It’s open, but worked for us!CONS: The fridge was in poor shape. Several of the shelves were broken. The kitchen faucet needs repair. It would turn on by itself, if we didn’t position it in a specific way. The washing machine needs to be balanced. It would shake uncontrollably when it was on the spin cycle. It was nice to have a washer and dryer though! Floors could have been cleaner. We’re a no shoes in the house family, and the floor turned the bottoms of our feet black. Bed sheets are not provided. Fans do not work well. Overall a great stay with my family! We would definitely rent again.

This property is very close to the beach (1 street from the beach) and was perfect for our needs and wants for our vacation. The location of the property allowed us to easily go to Boston for a day, do a fishing charter in the Hampton’s, visit Fort McClary in Kittery, Maine and have many trips to the beach. There are some renovations that will be needed in time but overall the house was very much livable and worked out for our family vacation. The amenities at this place are incredible from lawn chairs, beach toys, toys and games inside, and kitchen supplies and equipment. Overall, I would recommend this house to others for a vacation as it was in an excellent location and very affordable for a beach house. The reason for the four star listing is due to not enough information being provided in the listing prior to booking. We had no knowledge it had no air conditioning when we booked. We also were not aware of the requirement to bring sheets for 6 beds along with bath towels. This information regarding linens was received a week prior to our stay. So we had to go buy linens for our stay. I relayed this to the host. Her response was very apologetic and considerate but there was no offer to cover the cost of the linens. There was also a hefty property damage fee when booking the property which the host was unaware of. We also were expected to wash blankets before checking out @ 11 which is not normal at a VRBO.

Great Beach House

House was clean and very charming. The host was nice and helpful. The location was awesome with the beach access right across the street and the Salisbury strip less than a 5 minute walk. I will say there is no A/C which is normally probably fine, but we happened to be there during a heatwave and the bedrooms upstairs get extremely hot. Other than that this was a wonderful beach house.. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!!
