"We had a great time and this place was within close proximity to places we wanted to visit. I would take out the part about having TV’s in both bedrooms as there weren’t any, just the living room."

About this house rental

October is coming and that means that Haunted Happenings in Salem, Massachusetts is in full swing. come stay in Gloucester and take the train to Salem. It is a 15 to 20 minute train ride from Gloucester and puts you right in the middle of all the spookey action. Bring your costume!

If Salem is not a draw, just come and relax and enjoy all that Gloucester has to offer in the fall. Then this desirable East Gloucester apartment in a historic home is perfect for you! It sits directly across from one of Gloucester's working maritime harbors, Cripple Cove. It is a scenic 15 minute walk (.07 mile) or 5 minute drive to Good Harbor Beach Footbridge and Gloucester's famous Harbor Loop with the Fishermen's Memorial.

You have so many choices: enjoy vibrant downtown Gloucester, Rocky Neck Artist's Colony, golf, so many great restaurants, shopping, museums, art galleries, and the hiking...there are so many beautiful trails, boating, whales watch tours, sailing, and kayaking, and so much more. Easy highway, local ferry, train and bus access.

This unique apartment adorns a lovely garden which serves as entrance to the second floor which leads into a combo kitchen/ living room with harbor views. Full bath with view into the garden is off of the living room. Head up to the third floor and there are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed, the other with two twin beds. Laundry in basement.

Parking is available in the home's driveway, in front or across at the harbor parking lot. Spend relaxing time reading, playing or just relaxing in one of several garden rooms.

My best friend and I traveled to Gloucester to spend a long weekend with my son and DIL. What a FANTASTIC location. So easy to get around and always had 2 parking spots. We were so fortunate to learn our trip lined up with St Peter's Festival. We never heard of it but it was a lot of fun! We went in Cape Ann Whale Watching Tour and saw SO many humpback whales, highly recommend them! Spent an afternoon in rockport at bearskin neck. A very quaint and interesting place for little shops and restaurants. Seeing Eastern Point lighthouse and walked by the 1/2 mile water break is a must. Signs say private roads but they are not, just keep following your GPS! Great food at the Causeway and right down the road at The Lobster, walking distance. Absolutely a great location to stay. Linda is very nice, the place is clean, rooms are comfy and she has a beautiful backyard!
