MHD holiday!

We booked this cute house as spillover for Thanksgiving, and it was the perfect in-town spot for people to stay and be easy distance from our festivities. The house was spotless and comfortable, and the host allowed early check in which was helpful in getting everyone settled. Would 100% book again, thank you!

Long summer weekend

We enjoyed the great location in town to walk around historic downtiwn, enjoying shops, restaurants and the shoreline. The house was great - everything we needed. We particularly enjoyed the barbecue and back patio.

Wow

This house and city (Marblehead) were absolutely amazing. We stayed here after visiting Boston for a week to be a little closer to the city of Salem, as we wanted to experience Salem during October (Halloween). I wish we would have planned another day just to spend here at this house. Everything was perfect. From the bedrooms to the outside garden it exceeded our expectations. There is no need to look for any other house if you want to experience Marblehead and surrounding areas. We will make a trip back in a few years and I hope the home is still available, because we would most definitely stay here again and again.

Charming Coastal Cottage

Just wrapped up a fabulous girls’ weekend in Marblehead at the quaint Coastal Cottage. From the initial contact with the owner we knew that this would be a terrific property for the 3 of us looking to catch up for a quick weekend. The owners are incredibly responsive, offer great suggestions where needed, and have created a charming yet updated environment in a perfectly located area that is walkable to everything! While we spent a lot of time in the house due to less than favorable weather, the town has much to offer. Some of our favorites: Shubies Market, Fresca wood fired pizza for a night in, and Mookies at Mugford is a quick walk and a must every morning for delicious coffee, pastries, etc. Highly Recommend this property!
