Cozy and in a convenient location!

We had a lovely stay in these cozy accomodations. Convenient location to Boston and Salem, we did day trips to both. Communication was good, and the whole experience met our expectations. The town and local beach is cute and easy to walk.

Christmas in Gloucester

I have just returned from a wonderful stay in Gloucester. The room and location were perfect for my stay. The hosts went above . Everything about my stay to accommodate the changes in my schedule so I was able to come later and stay longer. I am so grateful to them for this opportunity to spend extra time with my family.

Great Find!

This spot was just what my daughter and I were hoping for on our very quick but enjoyable beach getaway. Well situated, clean, quiet -- we couldn't have asked for better. So glad to have found this as an option for visiting Good Harbour.

Weekend getaway

My family enjoyed our 3 night stay. The room was clean and the property manager(owners) were very pleasant to work with. They worked very quickly to fix an issue we had with being locked out of the place. Quiet little area and seemed very safe to stay with a family.

Excellent spot!

Perfect location, short walk to one of the best beaches in town. I see negative reviews based on the lack of TV, we are the type of people who are very outdoorsy, so we didn't care at all. We will definitely be staying there again when we go back. Thanks for a great stay!

Great cozy place to stay

Had a great weekend on Cape Ann. Location was great, very close to Gloucester and a short drive to other points like Rockport and Halibut Point State Park. Slept well with plenty of blankets available for a winter night. The kitchen had everything needed for a weekend stay with sink, mini fridge, and a hot plate. And Gabrielle was very nice and accommodating! Would recommend staying here!

Great Folk Offering a Great Location

I am native to Gloucester and visiting family. With limited space with my family, I saw the listing and its location and booked here. It is walking distance from Good Harbor Beach and Downtown/Gloucester Harbor. The checkin was easy. The hosts, whom I met, were very hospitable. The parking is best for those taking one vehicle, but there was always a space available. The unit is clean and has a nice table to handle any workstuff that may arise. Ultimately, as a former local, if you are wanting to enjoy all Rockport and Gloucester offer for a 2-3day stay, this is your place.

Gaby was an amazing host! She took the time to come meet us, make sure we were comfortable in the space and to see if we had questions about the area or if we needed any recommendations for sightseeing or places to eat. The space was very clean, had all the amenities you could need, was in a charming neighborhood, and was an easy walk to town, shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and the beach. I would absolutely stay here again!

Our 2nd stay here, certainly not the last! Don & Gabrielle Gropman are awesome hosts! Cozy & clean apartment (Note: No TV! Fantastic!) walking distance to downtown Gloucester, Stop-N-Shop grocery, 7-11, Charlie’s Place diner & Good Harbor Beach. Location is ideal for walkers, joggers, & serious seashore kitefliers! Cape Ann Glen T. Macleod YMCA is a mere 8-min. drive away for gym advocates & lap swimmers who have Y National Memberships.

Decent place, privacy so so.

There was an overlap of my arrival and the departed. Unit wasn’t ready at said check in time. Owner friendly, after a very long drive I just wanted a shower and calm. Owner was spinning laundry in unit, came back in an hour and wanted to do her laundry? I said no. That was uncomfortable. Every conversation overhead can be heard very clearly. The parking is on a steep angle, not the easiest for unloading luggage etc. Multiple doors on entering for owners unit overhead. It worked for a quick few nights, it was clean and had all I needed. I personally didn’t feel I had my privacy.

About the host

Hosted by Gabrielle Gropman

I am a visual artist and my husband Don is a writer. We have been in love with Cape Ann for decades and moved here from the Boston area. It has been fun preparing and decorating our guest space. We have already met a variety of great guests, some of whom are visiting family, others are here simply to relax and get away, and others to get to know this historic and beautiful area.

Why they chose this property

Ours is an affordable, homey space that is away from the bustle, yet close to so much that is available in Gloucester.

What makes this property unique

Very suitable for individual seeking a winter getaway. Great space for working on a writing or other creative project. Markets, restaurants and take-out all within easy reach.
