Things to do
Chelsea's historical homes and pristine parks
You'll find an array of attractions within easy reach of your Chelsea vacation rental. For a compelling trip back in time, be sure to stop by the Governor Bellingham-Cary House Museum. Built in 1659, it's one of the most beautifully preserved and historically significant buildings linked to the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Friendly local experts will be all too happy to give you a guided tour, but opening hours are limited, so be sure to check listings before you visit. Mary O'Malley State Park is a lush, green riverside park with spectacular views of the Boston and Charlestown skylines. From here you can also marvel at the handsome Tobin Bridge, which connects Chelsea to Boston.
