Rockport Dreamland

Make no mistake—I think this house was expensive for a winter rental by the shore. However, what a great house! Beautiful design, comfortable beds, thoughtful and generous amenities, fully equipped modern kitchen—and boy, what a view! If you want to treat yourself special, Eden Cove the place to be.

Annual retreat

We have been coming to Rockport for 41 years. This was our best overall experience. We arived under difficult circumstances having evacuated from our home in western north carolina after Hurricane Helene. Our host, Katha, went above and beyond to make sure our stay was wonderful. The property is beautiful and the vistas breathtaking.we will return!

Fantastic Rockport rental

We were lucky enough to stay here over the holidays and had a fantastic stay. Katha was extremely communicative and helpful before and during our stay. The property is beautiful, clean, and well maintained with clear directions for all appliances and recommendations for local restaurants. The views are amazing. I would recommend this rental and Katha as a host for anyone looking to stay in Rockport.

Great property, location, and views.

Very nicely remodeled home with quality furnishings that is very comfortable, clean, well-equipped, and well-maintained. The large front deck is awesome for enjoying the views of Thacher Island, the ocean, and all the boats day and night. (In my opinion, the online photos don’t do the view justice.) The location is somewhat private and secluded, minimizing local traffic and offering the opportunity for long leisurely walks and more great views. At the same time the location is very convenient to Rockport and Gloucester. My wife and I very much enjoyed our two week stay in July and hope to stay there again.

Wonderful winter stay

Staying at this property was a special treat. The views from the living area and master bedroom were second to none and we especially enjoyed seeing the sun rise on the days we were here. The walks around the house are also delightful. The property is clean, comfortable and inviting. The kitchen was refreshingly well stocked, which made cooking easy. Highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place to stay and explore Cape Ann.

Stunning sunrises!

Very cute New England experience! Katha was wonderful and attentive. The kitchen was well stocked. The home was clean, cute and perfect for us. We were a group consisting of 3 couples. Perfect for family as well. Waking up every morning to the most stunning sunrises. We would definitely stay again.

The house was beautiful with ocean views visible from the entire downstairs as it has an open floor plan as well as one of the upstairs bedrooms (the master bedroom) When we had a question it was very easy to get in touch with the hostess.

Everything about this property, from the location to the residence was beautiful. Lacking nothing and actually beyond our expectations!

Intoxicating

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Our family is from Gloucester and Rockport and we having becoming back for over four decades. The views from the cottage are absolutely beautiful. Didn’t matter day or night, we were on the porch staring at the ocean views. Never turned on the AC and the ocean breezes were fantastic. Highly recommend this cottage.

Perfect cottage with an ocean view

The property was perfect for reconnecting with our two adult children and their spouses. The host thought of everything we might need to make our stay more comfortable. The weather was cool and overcast, but the house was cozy and full of light despite the clouds - and the view is spectacular. The house is well laid-out to provide plenty of space for everyone. Parking was never a problem during our stay.

Beautiful House in Beautiful Location

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Katha's house in Rockport. The house is amazing, and the views are gorgeous. The house is beautiful, immaculate and fully stocked. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and some snacks to begin our week. Not only are the views from the house stunning, but the location of the house is perfect. It's on a very quiet street and just a short scenic walk to three beautiful beaches. Downtown Rockport and downtown Gloucester are both a very short drive away. We absolutely loved this property and hope to return soon.

Dream Vacation

The house is beyond amazing! The location is unreal. It overlooks an herb garden, a field of wildflowers and the ocean. Prior to our arriving at the house, we had made reservations to eat out almost every evening. After seeing the incredible view from the deck and the FABULOUS kitchen, we cancelled our dinner reservations and ate dinner on the amazing porch each night. The ocean breezes would blow over the herb garden of lavender and other fragrant herbs and onto the deck. Absolute heaven! The house is recently renovated and is GORGEOUS! Everything was beyond our expectations. Our delightful host Katha was very prompt in replying to any and all questions such as beach locations.

Beautiful Cape Ann retreat with spectacular views

The house is stunning - totally renovated with comfortable living spaces. We enjoyed the spacious kitchen, cozy living room with pellet stove, and expansive deck. The master BR had stunning views of the water and looked out over Thatcher Island, which has not one, but two lighthouses to capture the imagination! We spent a quite day baking as the snow blew sideways and the waves pounded the beach. The next day the sun came out and we explored Rockport and nearby beaches. The final morning we were met with calm water and a brilliant sunrise.! We wouldn’t hesitate to come back again if returning to the area.

Fabulous house and perfect location

We loved our stay - one of our very best in many years of coming to Rockport. The house was simply wonderful, with a spectacular view of Thatcher Island and a magnificent field of wild flowers that made us feel like we were living in an Impressionist painting. The location within walking distance of several beaches is ideal, the surroundings are peaceful and quiet and the house is spacious and very well equipped. Everything was very clean, super comfortable, great for cooking and sitting on the deck was heavenly both in the morning and evening. ( it could get a bit hot mid-day so perhaps an umbrella or some type of shade would be a nice addition.) We highly recommend this house for a special vacation. The best that Rockport has to offer!

Beautiful house and view at Eden Cove

We were here for a wedding weekend and needed a house for respite between events. This house was recently completely renovated and is tasteful & beautiful! The view of the water and Thatcher’s island and twin lights is gorgeous. Enjoyed the deck facing the water. Plenty of room for 5 of us to have private space and enjoy time together. Kitchen had everything we needed & Katha kindly left wine, Brie, baguette, milk and cream. Very clean and stylish. Loved the art & soothing atmosphere. Thanks Katha. We hope to come back to your lovely spot!!

Beautiful views

What a gorgeous home. This home was spotless with all the little touches well-thought-out. We were greeted with a bottle of wine and some snacks to start our unpacking. Loved walking through the surrounding neighborhoods and of course the view. We have been visiting Gloucester for 60 years ( at least every summer ) have many extended family members in Gloucester and my mother grew up in Gloucester. parking was tight and the immediate neighbor with a shared driveway was unpleasant to say the least.... just a small caveat.

Coastal getaway

Rockport and Cape Anne and this property compliment each other . They all exude charm, character, friendliness and an overwhelming sense of coastal relaxation. The property itself is as spectacular as the coastline…well appointed, immaculate and has everything guests could need. A definite return is in order.

Spectacular Ocean view

My family had an awesome time at this Rockport property. The house was gorgeous inside and out!!! Views were ta die for!!! As someone else stated pictures do not do justice to how the inside looks. We spent many a day on deck enjoy sunset, rainbows and moon views. Beaches were close by and not crowded at all. Highly recommend this spot
