You will love this extraordinary waterfront vacation rental home with spectacular views and top-notch amenities. Set on a bluff over picturesque Strawberry Cove and the open Atlantic, water views abound from almost every room. The house offers a sophisticated, yet comfortable living space, full of natural light and an open style that creates the illusion of floating on the ocean.

Just when you think that it could not get any better, the lower garden level offers more fun with a private suite that includes another full kitchen, living area, and game room with a ping-pong table. Then, walk out of your choice of doors into the yard, where you can enjoy the ocean view.

The outside of the property is as wonderful as the inside, with a verdant lawn and the amazing multilevel decks built into the bluff overlooking the sea. The home’s main deck overlooks the spacious yard and features a patio dining set and additional outdoor furniture for lounging. There is also a gas grill.

If you would like to swim, public Gray Beach is just 6/10 of a mile from the house, or you can drive to the larger beaches of Good Harbor Beach and Wingarsheek Beach. Explore nearby Rafe's Chasm, Ravenswood Park, and the charming village of Magnolia. Stage Fort Park which is 2 miles away and is a popular spot for oceanside walks, sandy beaches, tennis, and a handicap-accessible playground. The commuter rail and downtown Gloucester are both just a short drive away and the wonderful seaside communities of Rockport, Manchester and Essex are also nearby.

3650 SF. No pets. No smoking. No parties or events are allowed.

One of our best vacations, ever!

by Lori
This beautiful, immaculate house is located with beautiful views of the ocean. It is spacious and delightfully decorated. I had to call and ask questions regarding the air conditioning and the maintenance personnel were helpful , quick to reply and answered all questions appropriately. Cape Ann is a wonderful vacation spot and we were given an app which gave us easy direction to the home and different activities, attractions, and restaurants along with diections. Gloucester was delightful and the people very friendly. Would definately recommend this property

Brendan's wedding weekend

by Robert
Great stay overall. Parking is a bit of a problem and the young adults were disappointed that the hot tub was out of order, but the accommodations and setting were spectacular!! Had a problem with one of the door locks and AVH promptly and cheerfully fixed it.. Would go back in a heartbeat!
So glad you enjoyed your stay. The hot tub was not included in the rental. Hopefully, there will be one when you come back!

Strawberry Cove review

by Michele
Very nice place, overall! Recommend you tell renters to NOT look at either your map or google maps. IT IS WRONG. I think your written directions were fine but everyone uses that google map.(our fault) If we hadn't called and had Carol talk us to the place we may never have found it though we were next door, the road does not go through. Also not many lamps, say master bedroom, had 100% light or none at all. Same re LR. The plastic cover under sheets in lower level BR was not comfortable , we didn't want to take it off but not good for sleeping . The goodie bag card was there but no goodie bag. 🙂 that's ok. Otherwise the place was great, wonderful views and very clean. We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful home.

Fabulous!

by Jeanne
Our family (seven of us) were there for the week and we had a wonderful, relaxing time. Plenty of things to do if you wanted to, but very relaxing if you just wanted to stay at the house and enjoy the view.
