This large and comfortable vacation home is just steps from the white sands of Long Beach--a perfect summer location! Built in the early 1900s, much of its early charm still remains but is augmented with an updated kitchen and many amenities.

On the ground floor, there is the living room with plenty of seating and a tv. The large kitchen has a pass-through to the casual dining room, perfect for easy post-beach meals. There is also a queen bedroom and full bathroom with a shower on the main floor as well as a "kid's nook" with child-size table & chairs as well as many games and books.

Upstairs are 4 additional bedrooms -- three with full-sized beds and one with 3 twin beds. There are also two upstairs bathrooms. One is a small 1/2 bath (powder room) and the other is a full bathroom with shower.

There is a large yard with a swing set, a gas grill and outdoor shower for rinsing off the sand after the beach. A large screened-in porch at the front of the house has a dining table as well as plenty of comfortable chairs for lounging and relaxing. Long Beach House is the perfect family beach house getaway!

Hope to Return Again!

by Cynthia

We spent the week of July 12-19 at Long Beach House. I think this is our 5th year there. It is a great location and almost on the beach so we can go back and forth as needed. The house has everything you could possibly need. It's just a short walk to the ice cream/pizza shop which is a big plus for the kids! It was an incredible week there and many memories were made. We hope to return again in 2026!

Thank you so much for your lovely review, we hope to see you again!

Always a great time at Long Beach House

by Anthony Schettino

We have used Long Beach house as our summer family vacation destination for a number of years. As always we are satisfied with our experience with both the facility and the support from Atlantic Vacation Homes professional staff. LBH is literally steps from the beach providing great convenience. The house itself is a bit rustic with the exception of the bedroom bathroom addition which is much more modern and has a nice air conditioner. Every year we have used LBH, there have been little improvements to the property which is great. LBH is pet friendly. The new single stream trash removal twice a week is a massive improvement. Three generations onsite makes for a lot of trash and recycling! Parking is ample. The property itself is large with a nicely shaded back yard great for cooling off or afternoon napping. Location is convenient to shopping and points of interest. (minutes). We noticed a leak under the dishwasher during our stay. I reported it by text. A friendly handyman was there literally within five minutes. He found the problem ordered the part and had the appliance fixed with days to spare on our stay. Thank you to AVH for another great stay at Long Beach House.

Thanks so much for the kind review. It's great to hear that you've been continuing to have a great time every year at Long Beach House!

Couldn't have picked a better location

by Jacob Garcia

Long Beach house priced the perfect getaway for my large group. It was a perfect beach house set with everything you need. We'll be back soon!

We're so glad to hear that your family enjoyed Long Beach House and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

by Suzanne

Big house large enough to fit my family of four and my brother and sister in law and their two kids with plenty of room. Two full baths and one half definitely came in handy and half bath was like icing on top. All of the fresh linens being there was a huge bonus. The walk to the beach was so short! We didn't even need the beach cart. And at night we had bonfires on the beach, so fun! Surfside Subs being so close came in handy on several occasions, for lunches, dinners and ice cream. In the house, there were plenty of places to sit and relax, including a screened in porch, and there were plenty of places to sit and eat as a family, which we took advantage of. One request for the management company - we had landscapers arrive before 7:00 am one morning and woke everyone up in the house. Could they come later in the day?

Thank you for your 5-star review! We apologize for the inconvenience of the early morning landscaping.

Long Beach House

by Cindy

We just returned from a wonderful week at Long Beach House. We have stayed there before and absolutely love it! The location is perfect for our family of ten. The house setup is wonderful as there is plenty of space both indoors and outside for the kids to play. They range in age from 3-9. Being able to walk right down to the beach and then to the ice cream shop is a bonus! I\'m ready to book again for next year!

Thank you for your glowing review! We are looking forward to seeing you again next year!

A family staycation

by Andrea
This home was wonderful compared to our rental last year! It didn’t look like a vacation home from the outside but the inside was set up perfectly. The company was great to deal with and communicated. I reported a little water leaking from a storm but it was cleared the second the storm ended. As in a previous post - there were ants but if you don’t have food out it shouldn’t be a problem. I would highly recommend this place to larger families and hope to rent again!!

Vacation with family

by Carolyn
Our overall stay at the long beach house was awesome as usual. This is our third year and we could not have been happier. My grandson's have asked every year if we can go back the next year they enjoy being able to just walk to the beach and back to the house whenever they want to and my sons and daughter in law enjoy the house because of how its setup and everything is there for us. We will continue to stay at the long beach house for as long as we can and as long as we're able the people at Atlantic have been extremely kind to me.

Long Beach House

by Cynthia
My family and I arrived around 4 pm on 7/10. We were familiar with the area as we have stayed at The Cape Ann Motor Inn for many years. With there being 10 of us now, we wanted something bigger where the kids had room to play both inside and outside. This house was perfect! The location is just what we wanted as the kids love this beach and walking to the ice cream shop! The set up was great! My husband and I had the downstairs bedroom and were never woken up by everyone's activities in the morning. It was very quiet. We were able to cook most meals outside on the grill or inside as the kids' tastes vary so much. It was really much easier than going out. We are looking forward to many more happy vacations! Thanks again for everything!
Thanks so much for your review. We are so glad that Long Beach House and the surroundings provided you and your family with a memorable and happy vacation. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Always a good time at Long Beach House

by Anthony
Had our annual get together with the kids and grandkids Long Beach House. The house had plenty of room for the ten of us and two dogs (for an additional pet fee) Happy to say that AVH is on their game in terms of sanitization. House was spotless on arrival. Towels were laundered, sanitized wrapped. We routinely give a rental property a “going over” on arrival but saw no need to do so this time around. Found the house to be in better repair than on previous visits with a new roof, large air conditioner on the first floor and all amenities in good working order. This property has a large shady back yard which we make good use of and as described is just a few steps to Long Beach. The beach is not used as heavily as good harbor so social distancing was facilitated. There is a sub and ice cream shop in walking distance and a grocery store a five minute drive away. AVH staff are Always responsive and attentive. Long Beach house has a bit of a rustic vibe but what it lacks in ambience it more than makes up for on convenience. Some of the upstairs mattresses have been replaced others can use replacement. The air conditioned first floor bedroom is spacious bright and comfortable. Cable and WiFi work perfectly.. Thanks as always. Looking forward to next year!
Thank you for your glowing review! We are excited to hear that your annual return trip to Long Beach House was a good one. See you next summer!

Family Vacation

by Carolyn
This was our first family vacation in a long time. We had always stayed at the Cape Ann Motor Inn which is right next to the Long Beach House. I decided to take the whole family this year and it really worked out everybody was able to come. The house it's an older house but was very clean and accommodated us very very well the best place that most of us liked was the screened in porch where we played games and red and had conversations. The walk to the beach was only like 5 minutes which was great for me because I have a problem walking. On the whole I cannot say enough about the people at Atlantic vacations and the house that we stayed in I have already asked to put my name in for next year for the same week because my family really really enjoyed it and wants to go back again thank you so much
Thank you for your wonderful 5-star review! We are thrilled that everyone had a wonderful family vacation. We look forward to welcoming you back next summer!

Cool and roomy with enough room for a large familly(9).

by Jacquelyn
We had a perfect vacation, including one big thunderstorm while we were on the beach which we treated as a chance for adventure and were the last to leave the beach. We took all our meals on our lovely screened porch and slept like babies after spending every afternoon in the water.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and share your "adventure" with us! We are glad that you had a good time on your vacation and enjoyed Long Beach House. We hope to see you again next year!

An excellent vacation at Long Beach House. Our fourth time there

by Beverley
Long Beach house is casual and a good fit for us with children and a dog. It is a short walk to the beach and another short walk in the opposite direction for pizza and ice cream. The screened porch has a large table and is lovely for lunch and dinner. The garage is full of everything needed for the beach. Not fancy but clean and comfortable. This was our fourth stay.
Thank you for your glowing review. We are glad that you had a wonderful stay at Long Beach House and enjoyed all that it has to offer. We look forward to your return to Cape Ann next year!

Family Summer Vacation

by Andrew
We had wonderful beach weather the entire week. The location of the house, so near to the beach, was perfect since our family includes ages from 6 mos. to 60+ Deep sea fishing, whale watching and a trip to Rockport were just some of the activities of which we took advantage. The house and yard were also a perfect fit. Thoroughly enjoyed by all.

A Great Week at Long Beach house

by Anthony
Long Beach House is in a very desirable location Two doors in from the beach! The house itself met our needs very well. We were 7 adults three kids and two dogs. There was plenty of room for everybody to spread out comfortably. Beds upstairs left a bit to be desired but that was our ONLY negative observation. The property offered something for everyone. Personally I liked the large and shady back yard. the kids loved the swing set. Outdoor shower was handy for an after beach rinse off. Wifi service was great. spacious kitchen and dining area was well stocked with utensils, pots, pans and such. The property is conveniently located, a short drive to whatever you might need. Although we had little occasion to contact AVH, they did check in with us during the week to see if we needed anything. This is our third year using AVH and we are very pleased with the service they provide. First floor bedroom, the most modern part of the house was very spacious and comfortable. TV in the room was a bonus. Front porch is screened in, spacious and well elevated from the road providing a useful dining and hanging out space.

Great week at Long Beach House

by Beverley

This was the third time we have stayed at Long Beach House. It is an informal place with a well equipped kitchen. The long table on the porch is great for meals when the weather is good and there is another long table in the house. The rest of the furniture downstairs is comfortable. The beds are also comfortable although the bedroom furniture is very “vintage”. Large yard with furniture and lots of beach equipment in the garage. A few steps to the beach and a block to a pizza place and an ice cream shop. Great for large families!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful review of Long Beach House! We are thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay for the third year in a row. We look forward to welcoming you back for a fourth year in 2019!

Long Beach House 2018

by Unknown
We had a great week at Long Beach House. The proximity to the ocean, at Long Beach, cannot be beat. The house is about 50 yards from the beach, affording guests the luxury to walk to the beach whenever they wish with minimal preparation. The house was comfortable during a hot week, even without A/C, thanks to the sea breeze and good airflow. The enclosed front porch was an idyllic place to eat, and we ate most of our meals there. We would certainly stay here again.
Thank you for your review! We are glad that you had a great week at Long Beach House and enjoyed the sea breezes during an unseasonably hot week and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Family at Long Beach House

by Beverley
This was our second year vacationing at Long Beach House. It is perfect for three adults and seven children, some of them young adults. There is a very short walk to beautiful Long Beach and there is an ice cream shop and an excellent pizza place a short walk away. The house is casual and comfortable, and there are all sorts of activities in the area. This year we went to Lexington to research ancestors and to Essex to see the boat building museum. Last year we spent a lot of time in Gloucester, Rockport and Concord. All are close Long Beach is busy on weekends, but you don't have to drive or find parking..
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are glad to hear that your visit to Long Beach was delightful and that you got to spend quality time together with family. We look forward to your return.

A wonderful holiday at the beach

by Beverley
Long Beach House is a casual house, just perfect for large families. It was comfortable for seven children-some of them young adults-and for the parents and grandmother. It is a very short walk to the beach, where the children loved the waves and the tide pools with crabs. It was also a short drive for groceries. It was a hot week but there were lots of fans to keep the air in the house moving. The house was clean and the kitchen/dining area was well equipped. The area was historic so we enjoyed walking around the town. The museum was excellent. We also spent a day in Concord researching ancestors ( my ancestor was a graduate of Harvard in 1664 and was the minister there from 1667 to 1711). We also visited the museum there, the Old Burial Ground and the Minuteman Park. On another day we went to Rockport and also enjoyed that area which is very close to Long Beach. It wa a relaxed vacation that everyone enjoyed and we would recommend this property rental for the easy access to the beach and the proximity to the town.. The management company was attentive and supplied all the information about trash pickup and was available by phone, although we didn't need them for anything else.

Summer Fun

As usual our annual visit to Cape Ann was most enjoyable. This was our 4th stay at Long Beach House and was a great experience. We had our children and grandchildren who were able to enjoy the beautiful beach everyday since the house is so close to it. We have been coming to Cape Ann for 15 years . This house has always been very clean and well equipped and gives us all the feeling of being at home. We look forward to returning next year.

Excellent as usual

by Unknown
We love this property and this location. We try to return as a family every 2 years or so. The house is old and the carpets, furniture etc are shabby, but in a nice way. The home is always freshly cleaned when we arrive. Long Beach House is really steps from the beach, while offering complete privacy, lots of space indoors and out, and parking for several cars. Highly recommended.

As usual we found ourselves back in Cape Ann for a wonderful relaxing experience. Long Beach House is ideal for our family, the close proximity to the beach makes it ideal for our young grandchildren. The same goes for the backyard space which the kids love and the adults too. We have been coming to Cape Ann for at least 15 years and will continue. Also this house always has very adequate supplies and is clean and welcoming. Always a pleasurable experience.

Long Beach get away

by Beth
We spent a week here with our 5 children and 20 other cousins scattered closeby- the beach, boardwalk , ice cream store, island off long beach for rock jumping was all they needed. What simple happiness!
Some of our employees love rock jumping at Long Beach too! We're glad you all had a great time, and hope to see you again next summer!

We love this house and the location. The house is warm and cozy and fully equipped. The yard is also very charming! We lucked out because the weather was beautiful every day.

Great location adjacent to Long Beach!

by Amalia
This beach house adjacent to the Long Beach seawall is perfect for a large family or two. Nothing fancy, the house is well-stocked with beach towels, has an amazing sun porch where sea breezes provide a cool place to eat, play games or chat the evening away free from mosquitoes. Our kids also enjoyed the play structure and large lawn area in the back yard, although most days were spent on lovely Long Beach. The house is older and not well insulated, but fans in every room help moderate the temperatures upstairs.
Long beach is truly a hidden jewel! We're happy you enjoyed yourselves and hope you return to Cape Ann again soon!

Long Beach Vacation

by Marguerite
We loved the cottage and the location. It is great for a family with small children. There was plenty of room so you weren't on top of each other. There were all the conveniences of home and more. We will definitely come back to stay next year. We had 5 children and 5 adults and we were all comfortable and happy. Thank You.
We just love hearing how comfy and happy everyone was at the vacation rental. Let us know when you would like to come back as this one books early! AVH staff

by Dorothy

Long Beach House stay

by Unknown
Fantastic location, plenty of space. Property is a bit run down, but fully functional. The price is fair given the condition. More parking available than most rentals, which is nice. This was our second visit and we hope to return. The property management representative was extremely helpful, on the phone and in person.

A Bit of Country at the Beach

by Jacquelyn
We loved the big countrified back yard for our birthday party and for the children to play in before dinner. Our only reservation about the place was that the nice screened-in porch had many holes in the screens which let in lots of mosquitos. Everything else about the house was just what we wanted. Thanks!

Great experience

by Robert
Our stay at Long Beach House exceeded our expectations. The property was very clean and the most important feature was all the supplies that were provided. We had everything we needed and it made the stay most enjoyable. Also there was an ample suppy of material,(books, drawing materials etc.) for our grandchildren. And finally, the short walk to the beach was fantastic. Thank you.

the place was great, steps away from the beach, so kids can run back to the house for something, but also a nice private grassy yard in the back. not spanking new, but organized, clean and functional, with plenty of useful vacationing supplies around. we'd definitely go again.
Many thanks for your positive recommendation of Long Beach House. Glad to hear that you are returning to Cape Ann!

A two-week VACATION

by Toni
The weather was perfect, the beach (Long) was as beautiful as ever as was the next one (my favorite) I call it "Pebble 1". My children all visited and family and we all throughly enjoyed ourselves hugely. Lobster and fish and fried clams were all wonderful and the house and rooms worked out beautifully. The kitchen is lovely to work in and I really appreciated having extra toilet paper, etc and the towel assortment not to mention the sheet possibilities! a very well stocked home! The only thing I missed was a rolling pin for our blueberry pies, but a straight glass did just fine. So, we all thank you for suggesting this house/home, it was just great and all the chairs boogy boards etc in the garage....!!!!!
It sounds like a wonderful time at Long Beach House was had by all. We look forward to your future visits to Cape Ann.

Long Beach

by Alicia
Great stay in a perfect beach house. I would recommend they don't leave so many towels so that way I don't have to wash them all since teenagers use every dry towel available! 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to complete the review. Both the staff and homeowners appreciate the feedback given by our guests. Great to hear that your stay was so enjoyable and that your teenagers are so clean : ) Hope to see you again in future years!
