Perfect Place!

We were looking for a place to stay that was in walking distance to the community of Marblehead. We loved the house, the experience was awesome. The house is as pictured, and interaction with the host was great. We will book to stay here again!

Great stay in cute area

We stayed here when visiting Salem. Salem is a short drive away if you have a rental. The Marblehead area is super cute to explore & has plenty of restaurants/bars! Communication with the host was excellent!! Parking wasn't the best, but we always managed to find a nearby spot!

Perfect Stay for Exploring Salem and Boston!

This home exceeded all expectations! From the cozy charm to the unbeatable location, it was the ideal spot for our three-night stay. We loved being within walking distance of adorable shops, fantastic restaurants, and coffee spots—plus, downtown Salem was just a quick Uber ride away. The cleanliness was outstanding—honestly, the best I’ve ever experienced in a VRBO. The kitchen was impressively stocked with every appliance, serving item, and staple you could need, making it easy to feel right at home. While we didn’t get to enjoy the inviting outdoor area, it looked perfect for relaxing. Inside, there were books and games for downtime, and the shower’s water pressure was phenomenal—small details, but they made a big difference! It was the perfect spot for me, my 20-year-old daughter, and her 2 friends. We spent one day soaking at Salem's Haunted Happenings, and another exploring Boston, just a 45-minute Uber ride away. Though I initially hoped to stay in Salem, I’m so glad we chose this home. It offered us the best of both worlds—a peaceful retreat with easy access to everything. Highly recommend!

About the host

Host profile image
My family and I have been on the North Shore for the last 10 years and love exploring all that this area has to offer! We love to enjoy Gloucester beaches, or adventure to local coffeeshops and breweries. When I'm not managing airbnbs I am working for a local nonprofit mentoring middle and high school students or chasing around our growing baby! We love enjoying short term rentals as guests and getting to experience new places in unique homes. Some of our favorites have been in Sarasota, Santa Barbara, and Montreal. I'm looking forward to hosting you here in our neck of the woods. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
