    Tobi C from Albuquerque, NM recommends this vacation rental

    Overall, my four month stay in the Galley was exceptional. The property has a fantasic view and is close to downtown Gloucester. The management staff at AVH was also very professional and helpful throughout my entire stay. I would recommend both the property and AVH to friends and family alike and I look forward to doing business with them again in the future.

    Deborah B from West Hollywood, CA recommends this vacation rental

    The property was very pleasant in the Fall season. Loved the boat yard/harbor view and watching the tides. The house is charming (except for the dated bathroom). Having the washer/dryer was a real plus. Never did figure out how to use the fireplace. December was difficult because of Huge Snowstorms. House is on a snow route so parking is not available in front of the house then. The bed does not have a headboard and is against a window. So street (truck) noise always woke me up at 6:30am. However - I really enjoyed my stay. Any problems that arose were promptly taken care of.

    Jane F from Tiverton, RI recommends this vacation rental

    I stayed at The Galley for 3 months while working on a movie filming in the area and my only regret is that I couldn't have spent more time there- coming home after a long day and sipping a beer on the porch, watching the boats in the harbor and the tide come in and out while the sun set over downtown Gloucester is a memory I will never forget! The Galley is such a cozy, warm space and is so close to beaches, restaurants and the most beautiful drive (or walk) around the ocean I've ever seen. I can't wait to come back for a real vacation there one day!

    Thanks for everything (Georgia was fantastic!!)

    Our stay at The Galley was fantastic. The harbor setting was beautiful. The owner of the property was delightful. Friends have asked us for AVH website because we were so pleased with our stay.

  • What a treat to have a glorious sunset the first night, water and a place to store/launch for our kayaks, and proximity to our beloved community.

    James S from Nashville, TN recommends this vacation rental

    The dishes were all filmed - the only mar on this otherwise wonderful little place. We understand the winter rental was to an old friend of ours, a bachelor - what are you going to do!?

    • Manager Responded on 8/3/2010

      Dishes can always be washed, so we are glad it was nothing more than this. We at AVH are happy and gratified that you had a wonderful vacation back on Cape Ann. We look forward to serving your vacation needs in the future.
