Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Marblehead is a quaint seaside town that offers many options for both locals and vacationers. Visit any of our local beaches — Gas House Beach, Devereux Beach or Grace Oliver's Beach, walk around Old Town and browse the local shops, or visit one of our many restaurants, such as The Landing, Sea Salt, Maddie's Sail Loft or The Beacon and enjoy some time with family and friends. If you take a quick drive over to Marblehead Neck — "The Neck", as it's commonly known — you can spend the day at the Chandler Hovey Park enjoying the lighthouse and all of the boats sailing in and out of the harbor. Or, head over to Castle Rock and watch the waves crash against the rocks. You will never get bored touring the lovely sights of Marblehead! And, if you are lucky enough to visit us during the month of July, you are in for a treat! The Festival of the Arts hosts a wonderful array of music, art and celebration (not to mention fireworks) to celebrate the birth of this great nation. It's a series of fun-filled days that you will be sure to enjoy! And, if you are visiting during the month of October, you have to venture over to Salem to take in Haunted Happenings! It's a must if you are in the area at that time of year.

We spent a week in this charming little home near Marblehead harbor and downtown. The home is tastefully decorated and felt like home. We loved walking in the nearby neighborhoods, eating at the local restaurants, and visiting nearby towns such as Rockport, Newbury, Salem and Portsmouth. It was so convenient to have a grocery store just a few minutes walk away. Amy was awesome at communicating and checked in several times to be sure all was well. If you want to be near Salem, beaches, places to walk, shopping and fun restaurants, we highly recommend staying in this vacation home!

The charming cottage was well appointed with special extras and high end bedding, towels and more! Amy was great to book with and communicates well. It’s cozy and super cute.

Amy is an amazing host! This has been our third stay at one of her properties and it did not disappoint. What I truly appreciated about this visit and cottage was that the space was perfect for a family of four on a long weekend. The location to shops, restaurants, and things to do was amazing. The cottage itself was clean and had everything we needed. It was quiet, quaint, and really clean. I loved the decor and ambiance. Amy made finding the parking space really easy and having two spaces in downtown Marblehead was extraordinary! I love working with Amy because she is top notch at communicating, and providing an elevated experience. Can’t wait to visit Marblehead again!
