Respite during our home renovation
5/5 We needed to vacate our home nearby for 4 weeks while it was undergoing extensive work. The proximity of Chris' property was perfect for us--we already know and love this historic small town, but enjoyed the peaceful space of this charming house, with its spectacular marsh views and stunning stars under clear, unencumbered sky. The house was cozy and comfortable for my husband and me and our two kitties. I'm sure it's even better in warm weather, with the ocean and the most beautiful beach in New England just a stone's throw away--but we were happy there even in the decidedly non-beach weather of March in Massachusetts. Chris was an attentive yet unobtrusive host. Most definitely recommend as a peaceful New England getaway destination.

Ipswich Stay
3/5 Cottage was okay. Location was good. Parking was poor. We had to drive up a grassy and leaf covered hill and park on sloping grass. Very difficult and unsafe. I have back issues and had to have my husband assist me to the house from our parking area. I

Manager's Response:
Hi Marianne, we appreciate your feedback and we're glad you enjoyed the location of the cottage. After discussing your comments with the homeowner, they wanted to clarify the parking setup:
- The property provides two designated parking options, including a pull-out area and parking at the end of the back driveway, close to the cottage entrance. It sounds like there was some initial confusion, but we’re glad we could guide you to park right next to the cottage for easier access.
- We're working on updating our listing and pre-stay information to make the designated parking more obvious for future visitors.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to provide an even smoother experience going forward.Ipswich
5/5 The views were excellent! The house was perfect for a group! We could have used a microwave but the oven worked for heating up food. It was peaceful and quiet after roaming around Salem.

House was great!
4/5 The house was as the pics showed. Wish there were a few more amenities like a micro, toaster and ac in the living room. Owner was great, so close to the beach, view was beautiful and I had a great time!
