Atlantic Vacation Homes
We are the premier vacation rental and real estate company in Cape Ann, Massachusetts,
with over 35 years of creating dream vacations for our guests.
Atlantic Vacation Homes invites you to be our guest on the beautiful North Shore of Boston, MA. Cape Ann is home to the sea-faring communities of Gloucester, Rockport, Essex, and Manchester-by-the-Sea, each of which lay claim to some of the best beaches on the east coast.
Situated a little more than a half-hour’s drive from downtown Boston, Cape Ann is a year-round destination, with something for everyone. In addition to the famous pristine beaches, there are world-class museums and galleries, art colonies, numerous festivals and local events, and the freshest seafood to be found anywhere. Popular activities include boating and fishing, whale-watching, hiking, biking, horseback riding, and golf. Quaint main streets and town squares offer an abundance of charm in addition to a wide variety of shops, restaurants, antiques, historical homes and landmarks.
Follow the coastline north to explore the maritime town of Newburyport and neighboring Plum Island, while heading south takes you to Beverly, Salem and Boston. Easily accessible by car or train, come and see why Boston’s North Shore is one of the best vacation spots in New England.
For fantastic Massachusetts vacation rentals, Atlantic Vacation Homes is the perfect choice. Our large selection Gloucester beach rentals and other area vacation homes for rent will suit every need and wallet.
