About this property

Avail all year for your short-term Get-A-Way! Just a 3-night minimum.

Step into the wonderful world of Plum Island living. The location of this beach house is what makes it such a great choice and value. It is at the top of one of the highest spots on the island so you can enjoy a view of the ocean as well as the wonderful breeze. It is located just across the street from the beach. It is within easy walking distance to a convenience store, restaurants including Mad Martha's, The Sunset Club, Riptide Cafe and Bar, and tackle and bait shop. For WINTER rentals, it is conveniently located, not too far onto the island. A great plus during those snow storms!

The beach house is very clean and has new appliances just waiting for your enjoyment.

Check in after 2pm.
Check out by 10am.

We stayed here in 2021 and it was awesome. Many improvements since then such as all new windows made it even better in 2025! It's a very short walk to the beach, and also close to the ice cream shop.

A Beach Trip to Remember

We loved our stay here!! The house was so great and fully equipped for our family of 8. The beach is literally across the street and the simplicity of that alone made the trip even more special. The beach is clean and full of great finds- moon snails, oyster shells, huge clams!! My children had a wonderful time!! We want to rent from Pam again for longer next time!!

We really liked the convenience of location, not to mention all the nooks and crannies in this property so we could spread out if we wanted to. It was very convenient to have a laundry right in the unit and we appreciated the equipped kitchen.

If you stay in this quirky, but superbly comfortable and exceptionately well-provisioned house, you are within steps of a spectacular beach and all the stores and restaurants this wonderful island offers.

Nice beach house

Overall beautiful location, well furnished house easy access and sleeping. Neighbors are closer than the add seems to show and had renovations ongoing at next door neighbor which made vacations a bit rough. Was not offered compensation by rebate for further rental which was a bit of a bummer. Did not provide with any washing soap, dishwasher soap, garbage bags or any cleaning products, so we had to accomodate by purchasing these items. Still recommend the spot its right accross the plum island beach entrance, beautiful bird sanctuary, and historical Newburyport town.

Perfect Family Cottage

This cottage is straight out of a storybook. Whimsical and enchanting, a lovely home with adorable seaside decor. It was perfect for our family, which includes four children ages 2-8. The porch area was filled with fun games, books, and puzzles, and the cozy upstairs bedrooms were all close together so our kids were never too far from us. In fact, they all fit in one room. The upstairs bathroom served as a walk in closet for us as there was ample room. We even had my parents over for a night- the sleeping porch was perfect. Pam had every cooking tool we needed to grill, bake a cake, make pancakes, rice, sweet tea, etc., as well as ample bed linens, towels, and beach supplies. My children loved the little lobster plates and having a highchair came in handy too. The location cannot be beat. We could actually see the ocean from the second floor porch, and could walk to restaurants, ice cream, and the beach in 2 minutes. The Parker River land reserve was a bike ride away, and breath-taking. Plum Island is an amazing place to visit, and if we find ourselves back, we will be sure to book with Pam again! This is a trip we will not soon forget!

About the host

Hosted by Pamela Jones

Host profile image
We purchased this beach house in 2003 as an ideal rental property. We live in Newburyport and love going to Plum Island and knew that other would too!

Why they chose this property

We immediately loved the feel of the house. It is truly a beach house where you can take a breath and relax.
It is situated on one of the highest points on the island. This means that we have the long-view out over the ocean but don't need to worry about the ocean taking our home. We don't even need flood insurance!
We like the location because it is close to beach but also because it is close to the bridge onto the island. It is a quick ride to and from downtown Newburyport.

What makes this property unique

Very convenient beach access. Many people enjoy the bright colors, artwork, and warm feeling of the house. It truly feels like a beach house where you can relax!
