Great House. Great Location.
Nestled in the heart of the historical Washington Square this house is everything it is described as and more. Walking distance to restaurants, shops, and local historical venues. Parking on the street was ample during our visit in October. Beds are comfortable, and linens are provided to make your packing light. The kitchen was stocked with essentials, coffee, tea, salt, pepper and sugar. Plus some spices. The spacious dining room was our hub, and has plenty of room for dinners, gathering to chat or plan your next excursion. This was a girls trip celebrating my 60th. Most of our activities took place in Salem, but we found this location much more relaxing and we were only 15 minutes away. The drive was fine, and parking in Salem was ok, as we parked in the MTBA parking garage at the train station. We explored Marblehead by foot and found many great shops, and a great restaurant. The Barnacle. John is a great host, and responds very quickly to any inquiries or issues if they arise. We left behind a couple shopping bags and when contacted about this he sent them to us. John is a host that goes the extra mile to make sure you enjoy your stay and feel comfortable. I highly recommend this house, and this host! 5 stars all the way.

Great location and responsive owner
This house is located in the historic area of Marblehead within blocks of water views, shops, and restaurants. (We met so many kind and friendly people on our daily walks!) Don't miss Prospect Alley and a meal at The Barnacle. John greeted us upon arrival and was available via text at all times, checking in to be sure all was in order. The house was clean and comfortable with plenty of space to spread out. Outdoor spaces include a nice front porch and a cute deck and side yard. Access to a good kitchen and laundry facilities was especially appreciated by us. If we're ever in the area again, we'll surely try to make this our place to stay.

Lovely house, lousy weather
This is a wonderful old house, beautifully preserved with period details and located right in the middle of Marblehead’s charming historic district. We decided to cut our visit short because the winter weather made it impossible to enjoy the neighborhood as we had hoped. It would be a great place to stay in warmer weather, with lots of space, comfy beds and a well equipped kitchen.

Great Location
Located in the center of Marblehead, MA, the property is convenient to the two main shopping areas of Marblehead. Ample on street parking is a benefit, and, in the event of snow there is a garage on the property.
