    Cape Ann in October is gorgeous and peaceful. Our stay in Rockport was the perfect family getaway, relaxing and fun. The house had everything we were looking for and the surrounding area kept us interested and entertained with leisurely activities. We travel to MA every fall and always make a point to spend time on the North Shore.

    Our family of 5 adults, aged mid-40s to mid-70s, enjoyed a splendid week in this home. Three floors gave us room to spread out and the main floor and patio were perfect for enjoying each other's company. The house contained everything we needed. We even bought seafood from Roy Moore's in the village and grilled out one night -- tasty! Thank you Atlantic Vacation Homes for a lovely experience.

    Eileen O from Chicago, IL recommends this vacation rental

    Everything about this property was wonderful - the location could not be beat: away from town but a quick walk to all the treats of Rockport and the beach. It was stocked with games and movies for the rare rainy day and had everything you would want for the kitchen and outdoor grilling. The garden was wonderful for sitting and reading -- overall a 5-star vacation.

    • Manager Responded on 7/7/2011

      We couldn't agree more, Rockport Village House is a great property in a wonderful location to enjoy all that Rockport has to offer. Come back and see us, real soon! AVH staff

    John H from Castleton, NY recommends this vacation rental

    Quiet neighborhood location within minutes walk to EVERYTHING; Bearskin Neck, swimming and sunrises at Front Beach&Back Beach, Old Granite Pier, train to Boston (only 50 mins, good for a rainy day trip to Aquarium, etc.) Great little park that the kids loved for the swings, seesaws and lily pond. Adults liked it for its super-close proximity to the house and as a shortcut to the shops in town.
    Awesome Gloucester beaches, and funky Main Street, just short drive away.

    House was thoughtfully equipped and laid out; not a wasted space to be found. Large closets, plenty of cabinets. Lovely, restful bedrooms, and the kids loved the privacy of the “bunkroom” on the ground level.

    The yard was my perfect (and frequent) escape from the 19 month old whom accompanied us. Obviously meticulously cared for, with an very nice mix of plantings. Very soothing space with a great hammock. Patio was cool, too, literally and figuratively.

    Best discoveries of the week: Bearskin Neck late at night when the shops are all closed and people gone. The night lights from the shops and living spaces above them reveal a charm and serenity not present during the day. Bring a camera, and maybe a tripod for some really cool night shots.

    Captain Joe & Sons Wholesale Live Lobster at 95 E. Main St. in Gloucester. By far the cheapest live lobster in town! Don't be intimidated by the utilitarian shed, just walk straight to the back for the freshest lobster around. Stick around long enough and you'll recognize the names of some of your favorite restaurants on the trucks that come to Joe's to pick up lobster for their own menus. When some of the most popular places had pound and a quarter lobster for $22, we paid $7.50 each. Not kidding.
    With plenty of large pots and great stove in the house, we were in heaven when we got home with our booty.
    Enjoy.

    Stephanie K from Wayland, MA recommends this vacation rental

    I think the house could have been cleaner - especially under things. For example a toy rolled under the living room sofa and when we went to get it it was clear that it had not been dusted under there for a very LONG Time (there was even an old Hershey's
    kiss under there!)! Same goes under the downstairs futon. I think the owners deserve better from their cleaning service which I am sure is not cheap. Also, we need more of the small blue plastic Rockport garbage bags and better trash instructions .. for example,
    did you want us to put each category of recyclables in a paper bag and then put all those paper bags out in the outdoor trash cabinet?? Just not so clear! It is a truly great house!
