Great Vacation

Property was well-cared for, and sized right for the two of us while providing space for additional family/friends to visit and spend the day. Location was close enough to walk to nightlife activity while distant enough to leave it behind when finished. Host was friendly and engaging, and everything went smoothly. We look forward to renting again!

Relaxing weekend away

Our family had a great time at Hampton Beach. The owner greeted us right away and even had fresh flowers in a vase for us. He gave us a tour and his information in case we had any issues. The cottage was perfectly clean and non-cluttered. It’s in a quiet location that’s great for families that want a quick walk to the beach but without the wild night life. Pretty sunsets and the porch was great for having coffee and breakfast. Fully stocked kitchen if you’re like me and like to cook family dinners at night. Highly recommended.

Great place

The owner was there already when I arrived a few minutes early. He gave me a great little tour. The property was beautiful. Nice walk to the beach. We were able to enjoy the fireworks from the porch which was amazing!

Beautiful week at the Beach!

Tom was an excellent host. He was there promptly at check-in time and offered a quick tour of the cottage. The cottage has everything you need. There is a beautiful view of the marshes. There were no bugs at this location the week we were there. Temps dropped down to 50 that week at night which likely explains why there were no bugs. Neighbors are quiet, and you are a very short walk to the beach. We had a great time!

Cozy Cottage

If you’re looking for a place that is perfectly located, you found it here. It’s just far enough away from the action of the boardwalk but you can easily walk there in 5 minutes if you do want in on the action. We biked (1.5 miles) to the gorgeous State Park beach and also did some fishing off the jetty there. While it’s a bit on the smaller side, it certainly doesn’t feel that way. The screened in porch is great, and the bedrooms are fine. We had a max of 6 people and all slept comfortably. The owner, Tom, is gracious and communication was excellent. Definitely recommend this for a family looking for a nice spot.

Nice Cottage in a Great Location

We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage, it was the perfect size for my family and the screened in porch was a definite highlight for me! I saw some lovely sunsets, as well as a few bird sightings. The cottage is in a quieter Hampton location by the marsh yet close enough to walk to the beach and activities. We really enjoyed our time here this summer and hope to visit again!

Great week on Island Path

We loved the cottage, it was clean, comfortable and cozy. This is definitely a well cared for cottage. It had everything that we needed right down to a deck of cards. The location was perfect, close enough to walk to the beach, but just far enough away from the noise and the traffic. Dinner and sunsets on the enclosed porch was a perfect way to end the day. Looking forward to returning next year.

About the host

Hosted by Thomas M Glavin

A Rhode Island native who spent summers with my family at Hampton Beach, NH.
Because of the wonderful memories, I eventually purchased the property so my own children could have the same experience. Hampton Beach continues to be an affordable and favorite destination for my family and friends each summer.

Why they chose this property

Having spent many enjoyable summers @ Hampton Beach, I took advantage of the opportunity to purchase the property when it became available. Hampton Beach is a beautiful beachfront community with one of the cleanest beaches on the East Coast.
You can do a little or a lot, depending on what type of vacation you want.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is located just a casual walk from the main 'boardwalk' area yet peaceful and quiet during evening hours. Cottage has a comfortable screened front porch and is located just adjacent to RT. 101 & US Rt. 95 to take trips to scenic Newburyport, MA, Portsmouth, NH, Kittery and Portland, ME and other nearby locations.
