We stayed here for 2 weeks as we have a boat in a nearby harbor. The location is great, walking distance to culture, restaurants, breweries and more. It's also a great spot to explore Salem, Marblehead, Manchester By The Sea, Cape Ann and more, all within a half-hour. The property has all the basics for a home base and really has the feel of an old town New England coastal house, with feels of the 1800's. If you are into modern, contemporary properties, just be aware that this house is a bit of a throw-back. Perfect for the wife and I though.
