Clean and Cozy

My family had a wonderful stay at this home. It was clean, comfortable, cozy, and updated. Only 22 minutes to Salem, a short walk into downtown Manchester By The Sea, and 40 from the airport. We felt very at home here. Would love to stay here again!

Manchester by the Sea

My wife, adult daughter, and our dog recently stayed at the property. We enjoyed the close proximity to downtown. We walked downtown several times during our visit. The kitchen and appliances were great. The beds and linens were quality. The stairs to the second floor could be tough for less mobile folks. Having the two upper floors was nice.
