This recently renovated beach themed 3 level, 3 bedroom, 2.5 baths, fully stocked condo, has 2 unique outdoor spaces, and parking for 4 cars.

Located within walking distance right in between 2 of the most amazing beaches in Cape Ann: Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester, and Long Beach in Rockport. Take your pick, no need to drive and pay to park. It will take you just a few minutes to walk to either.

Indoor features include 3 levels of cozy and comfortable living:

The main level has an updated, fully stocked kitchen, with an open concept into the living room, and a 1/2 bathroom on this level. The living room has a gas fireplace, 50+” flat screen tv, 2 full sized couches (1 which pulls out for more sleeping, if needed), and a full sized screen slider with walk out to a front deck.

The 2nd level has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Each bedroom has a queen bed, a closet, plenty of storage, and their own full bathroom with bathtub/shower. Linens, bedding and towels are provided during your stay.

The 3rd floor living space has a spiral staircase that leads you up into another living area, with 2 queen beds. This room can also act as another living room, as it will have a tv and lounge area.

Outdoor features include unique spaces for relaxing:

On the main level there is a walkout to a front deck with a bistro table and chairs.

Off the kitchen is a walk out to the back patio. This patio has a dining table, BBQ, outdoor furniture, fire pit, and an outdoor shower.

Above the back patio you will find the garden ledge, surrounded by beautiful granite rock features. This serene space has a hammock, and a lounging/meditating/relaxing area.

Your rental includes cable tv, wi-fi, a fully equipped kitchen, linens, beach cart, beach chairs, classic board games, and plenty of books for lazy days reading on the beach, lounging around, or on the hammock…

Wonderful week

We had a lovely stay at between 2 beaches. The hosts are extremely attentive and available, but not intrusive. The house is clean, comfortable and well equipped. And we love the area. It’s on a busier road but you don’t feel it.

Everything was perfect!

There were up to nine of us staying here and we had such a great time! Jim and Joanne were wonderful hosts and were quick to answer any questions and help with whatever we needed. House was clean and well stocked. Location was perfect - very quick walk to beaches. Outdoor spaces were perfect: a cool space for hanging out on hot days and a sunny space if you don't want to go to the beach. I have to say that of all the places I've rented via VRBO and other companies Jim and Joanne were by far the best hosts I've ever rented from. Would absolutely rent from them again! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Quaint and Relaxing

This is a great community and the beaches are so gorgeous. First time to the east coast and we were very impressed The house had literally every amenity you could want including some unexpected treats and toys. Beach toys and chairs came in handy. Its very easy to walk to the beaches. The stores are close and easy too. The house accommodated our family perfectly! Plenty of space. Thank you for your hospitality!

Perfectly equipped, extremely clean, super comfy

Our family of 4 (2 parents, 2 teens) had an amazing week at Between 2 Beaches! The rental was so thoughtfully stocked (so many little extra touches you don’t typically find), and the hosts were the best- friendly, helpful, communicative. We loved all the interior space, the beds were comfy, there were plenty of beach items (chairs, towels, beach games, etc), and the house even included lots of lovely bonus finds, like tons of board games and books. Jim & Joanne really thought of everything. We would return in a heartbeat. Thank you for a wonderful vaca!

Family beach vacation

This property was perfect for the three generations of our family. It was perfectly located to go back and forth to the beach. The hosts were very helpful and provided full information of the area, beach towels and a full array of beach gear. The outside back area was perfect for both kids and adults. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. We all had a great time.

Wonderful time!

This is the perfect location, between Cape Ann’s two best beaches. Walkable each way. The host and hostess were friendly, thoughtful, responsive, and accommodating. It looks like they had fun decorating the place! Modern and tasteful. We enjoyed evenings at the firepit on the fantastic backyard patio.

Great location & amazing hosts

We had a fantastic time! This house is the most ‘ready to enjoy and relax’ rentals we stayed in our 18+ years of renting houses on the East Coast. Walking distance to two pristine Beaches : 7 min to GoodHarbor Beach and 5 min to Long Beach. Appreciated walking back home for lunch. Went with my husband and 2 daughters 18 and 21 and my parents. The owners went over and above to make sure we had everything we needed - thank you Joanne and Jim! (Only warning: the 2 beds on the second floor can be tricky to access if you are not fit and might not suitable for toddlers because of the open staircase.) Do not hesitate if you are looking for a great spot to explore Rockport/Gloucester. We highly recommend:)

Beautiful Home! Perfect Location!!

This home has it all! The owners have thought of every detail and put love in to every inch of this place! Loved the location! We were close to everything! We could easily walk to 2 different beautiful beaches with the help of the supplied buggy they provided. Easy to carry beach chairs and soft fluffy beach towels made our days at the beaches amazing! Their suggestions on things to see and places to eat were spot on! Amazing food and beautiful sights!! Really enjoyed the 4th of July festivities between Gloucester and Rockport!! The back patio/yard was sweet and comfortable with tons of seating and a hammock area for super chill time! They truly thought of every comfort!! The beds were the best part! Brand new mattresses in every room and a perfect nights rest every night of our stay! We will definitely be back to the charming town of Gloucester and will stay at “between two beaches” every time! Thank you for our best family vacation yet!! See you next year!

Ideal place to stay on Cape Ann

This house was a super place to stay. We had ten people (6 adults, 4 kids) and it fit us like a glove. The only problem was the discussion of which beach to go to. Two of Cape Ann's best beaches are within easy walking distance. Besides the beaches, Between two Beaches is smack on the border of two fascinating towns, happenin' Gloucester and charming Rockport, just waiting to be explored. The house itself is ideal. The kitchen is well outfitted. There are 2 1/2 baths and a water a dryer. The layout of the kitchen and the great room is convenient and airy. There is internet, two TVs, and lots of books for all ages, as well as a supply of lush beach towels and tote bags, beach chairs, boogie boards, and a beach cart. The decor is imaginative and beach-themed. Jim and Joanne, the landlords, are friendly, helpful, and informative (in case you are new to the area. They left an assortment of goodies for us on arrival--much appreciated! All of us agreed this is the place we want to come back to!

Moms/Daughters trip 2021

This property was perfect for our moms and daughters (10 of us) week trip to Cape Ann. First, I can not say enough about our stay at this property. Location was amazing between Long Beach, Rockport and Good Harbor Beach, Gloucester. An ice cream/pizza restaurant just steps from our door. The property has everything you need and could possibly want for use at the house and at the beach. It truly feels like a home away from home. VERY CLEAN!! Kitchen has every appliance, utensil, dish and more. Bedrooms/loft and bathrooms are aesthetically pleasing, clean and roomy. Beds are very comfortable! Loved all the decor and special touches put into interior from the first step into the property up through the loft! There were helpful notes to help guide you through anything you use in and out of the property as well as advice and information regarding the area...including coupons! The landscaping in the back of the property was very inviting. The owners definitely put an effort in using the natural terrain with their landscaping ideas! Parking was convenient, especially for the number of cars we had. The owners were outside helping us as we drove in! Jim and Joanne were perfect hosts...on top of every question, welcoming and gracious. We all want to thank them for making our trip amazing! We wouldn't change a thing, NOT ONE COMPLAINT !! Thank you Between 2 Beaches!!

Fantastic!

We had such an awesome stay. The house had anything you could possibly need. It was super clean. The hosts were so incredibly friendly and helpful! The kids had a great time roaming the backyard and they loved the upstairs loft! The walk to the beach was easy. It’s very close to the grocery store and is steps away from a pizza/subs/ice cream place (highly recommend the lobster rolls too!). The only negative to the stay is that I wouldn’t say the house is toddler-proof. So we spent a lot of time wrangling our 3 year old to keep him from breaking things. I definitely wouldn’t take away any stars though. It was an absolutely wonderful place to stay!

All I can say is WOW! Not only is this property gorgeous, but Jim and Joanne are wonderful hosts! They went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was great. The kitchen comes stocked (spices and meal add-ons included) and they provide so much for their guests to use. They provide sheets and towels for all guests (beach towels included) and have beach accessories to use as well (umbrella, chairs, toys, wagon, cart, and cooler). This house has been the most well equipped out of any vacation rental I have stayed at. Jim and Joanne, thank you for being great hosts. The kids and the adults enjoyed all of the extra surprises that you left for us! I’m so glad that we decided to stay at Between2Beaches and we will definitely consider staying here again!

Family beach vacation

We came to “between 2 beaches“ to enjoy the last week of summer at the beach and celebrate a birthday. Joanne and Jim are thoughtful hosts and made us feel very much at home in their comfortable rental. They provided beach towels, beacH chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards — everyone we needed for enjoying Good Harbor Beach. Because of cOVID-19 we cooked all our dinners at the house and ate in the beautiful backyard as often as possible. Joanne arranged a fabulous birthday cake for our last meal. My grandsons loved their third floor suite and want to return. We had a memorable stay!

Exceeding expectations

Joanne and Jim are the most thoughtful and generous hosts we have ever encountered in our 10+ years of renting in Cape Ann (across Annisquam, Gloucester and Rockport). First, they have thought of EVERYTHING you might need, making sure you can enjoy this delightful region without a care in the world and creating more than a home away from home with between2beaches. Second, they struck the perfect mix of availability and privacy. They provided superb advice on activities and where to find certain particular items we were looking for, treated us repeatedly to delights, including homemade pesto. And when there was a slight issue with the washing machine, they were there within minutes to fix it. They managed to be at once very available but also very discreet, managing this incredibly delicate balance deftly. And then there was the swag (beach bags!) and the featured art that you can purchase. I could go on and on. As a veteran home renter, I thought I had seen it all and knew what to expect, but Joanne and Jim far exceeded our expectations.

About the host

Hosted by Jim & Joanne Frontiero

Hi, nice to meet you! Our names are Jim and Joanne Frontiero, and we are so happy you stopped by.

HOW WE BECAME...

We were 2 lost souls that found each other in 1996. Joanne (a Canadian) visited a good friend in Boston in the Summer of 1996. Joanne met her friend’s boyfriend’s best friend, a boy named Jim (from Gloucester), and of course they hit it off..... 27 years later (no way we are that old)... We are happily married 24 years. Jim's twin sons are now in their 30's, and our daughter will be a senior at URI.

We bought our first condo in between 2 incredible beaches and have happily lived here since 2001. In 2018 we had the opportunity to buy the other half, and we love that we can now share our little slice of paradise with others.

Why they chose this property

Did you know Gloucester is actually an island ? (Separated by 2 bridges). We are situated near the tip of Cape Ann, but so close to many amazing day trips you can plan while staying here. Top short drives (5 minutes to an hour away): Rockport, Essex, Newburyport, Boston. We also love to take day and weekend trips to New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island, and Vermont....And then of course, there is walking to 2 of the most beautiful beaches in Cape Ann from our house.

What makes this property unique

We are foodies, and love to explore. If you have any questions during your stay, we live right next door, and know everything about the area. We can help you as little, or as much as you'd like, to make sure your vacation in Gloucester, and the Cape Ann area is an amazing one.

We hope you come and visit our little slice of paradise, Between 2 Beaches.
