Description

Good Harbor Beach, one of Gloucester's finest stretches of sand, is just a five minute walk from this comfortable ocean-view vacation rental home. Spend the day at the beach where you can swim, soak in the sun, or walk at low tide out to picturesque Salt Island. Prefer to stay at the house? Relax and read a book on its expansive deck taking in the views of the sparkling Atlantic with sailboats parading by. Inhale the fresh salt air, and listen to the muffled sound of the waves lapping the shoreline. A ten-minute stroll in the other direction will bring you to Long Beach, often filled with surfers as they catch the waves. An ice cream stand, luncheonette and several roadside eateries are nearby.

Enter from the parking area to the home’s lower level. This level includes the entrance area, a spacious queen bedroom, full bath with shower, laundry room and a den. From here you can head outside to the front yard area or up the stairs to the main living space.

The stairs open into a sitting room with comfortable sofas and large picture windows that look out over the expansive deck and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Walk into the next open plan room with another seating area and a flat screen TV, kitchen with breakfast bar, dining area and more picture windows and sliders leading out to the ocean side deck. This floor has two bedrooms, one a queen and one with two double beds, as well as a full bath with tub and shower.

You are bound to make many happy memories at this wonderful Briar Neck vacation home.

This home is very special. The owners were an artist and geologist and the home is appointed with art and cool items. If you have small children who are walking and reaching to grab things this may not be the best choice of rentals. The views are terrific and it is a short walk (5 min) to Good Harbor Beach. Beds are comfortable, 3 separate sitting areas and a large deck with comfortable lounge chairs to view the ocean and Salt Island. The kitchen is tiny but workable with toaster oven, microwave and oven. Huge round table with comfortable chairs for dining. Quiet neighborhood with friendly people and their dogs walking by. Quick walk to ice cream and subs, walk about 8 minutes to Long Beach as well. Love this place, we have rented it twice.

Great location, splendid views, equidistant to the two essentials of a Good Harbor beach week (the ocean and the Dairy Maid). The a/c was particularly welcome this year. And we love the character of the interior--definitely not your cookie-cutter beach house. The only thing missing (and it's a quibble) is an outdoor shower, or at least a nozzle for the hose for spraying off sand before traipsing back into the house.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Salt Island Views. The home is exceptionally beautiful and in a perfect location for beach lovers, as it is only a very short walk to both Good Harbor Beach and Long Beach. The ocean, as well as Salt Island, is constantly in view from the large, comfortable deck and from the major living areas inside the home. As much as we loved it, families with very small children would find it challenging, as would anyone for whom walking is difficult, as the main living/dining/cooking areas are up a flight of stairs. For us, it was perfect.

Salt Island Views rental was perfect in so many ways! The lovely view of the ocean & Salt Island with its changing tides made for a memorable week. We walked to Good Harbor Beach at least 2 times a day & enjoyed the refreshing water & clean, soft sand. The house was commodious, well equipped & well positioned. Neighbors were so friendly & offered so many helpful tips about the area.

The vacation was excellent. Good Harbor Beach is always beautiful and dynamic. The weather was sunny and warm/hot. And the house was the best part. The deck was perfect, affording a great view of - Salt Island! Being outside in such comfort was a real treat. The house was very clean and everything worked, including the grill. We’ll be back next summer.

This house is situated in a fantastic location right near good harbor and long beach. There are amazing waterfront views from every room. I had an amazing month at the ocean and would recommend it to anyone interested at being on the ocean.
