View of Salt Island and Good Harbor from deck.

Views of the Atlantic Ocean abound from the deck of this recently remodeled cottage, perched on a bold granite outcropping at the highest point of Briar Neck. A five minute stroll will bring you to Good Harbor, one of Gloucester's finest sandy beaches where you can spend the day swimming, soaking in the sun, or walking at low tide out to picturesque Salt Island. Or, if you prefer, you can enjoy all of this from your large deck and add a few sailboats on the horizon to the view! This four bedroom cottage comfortably accommodates a party of eight. The main level consists of a dining room, living room with fireplace and flat screen TV, new full bath, updated kitchen with laundry (washer/dryer), and a porch. The bedrooms, all but one have views and one bath (tub only) makeup the second floor; don't forget the indoor "beach" shower in the cellar. It's time to write your chapter of happy memories at this wonderful family home.

    a guest from Delmar, NY recommends this vacation rental

    We have been vacationing at Brier Neck for many, many years and needed to find a new home to rent. We were thrilled with Brier Neck Lookout. The unobstructed view of Salt Island and beyond from the spacious deck and bedroom windows was magnificent. The house was very comfortable and the air conditioning was key during a hot, humid week. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We hope to be back next year.

    a great beach location. very clean and lots of room. Air conditioners were essential due to the extreme heat that week. excellent week, lots of supplies. nice size dining table. Double bed in beach view room was uncomfortable.

    • Manager Responded on 8/5/2011

      Brier Neck Lookout is another Good Harbor gem, affording privacy but easy access to the beach. Thank you for your review, AVH staff

    The week at the beach was wonderful. The house's size and layout were just right. The view is spectacular. The proximity to Good Harbor Beach is a plus. And the memories are the best.

    This was the first summer after renovations and was missing a few things, but we are sure that in the summers to come it will be fully equipped. The views were wonderful of Salt Island.
