Picture yourself on the huge wraparound deck of Ships Bell House, enjoying the setting of the sun over breathtaking water views. That's the moment you'll never forget when you stay in this charming vacation rental home in Gloucester's Lanesville neighborhood.
Ships Bell House is located on a quiet neighborhood lane, its manicured gardens and a spacious lawn adding to the tranquility. Relax in air conditioned comfort inside the bright, open-plan space that is decorated in a cheerful beach-centric style with local flair. There are two bedrooms and a full bath on the main floor, as well as a Queen suite with a full bath on the lower level.
In the garden, enjoy a nap in the hammock or cookout on the grill. After your swim at Plum Cove Beach or Lanes Cove, rinse off at Ships Bell's outdoor shower.
When you want to explore, head to nearby Plum Cove Beach, downtown Gloucester or nearby Rockport. The amazing Halibut State Park is a short drive away and Boston and Salem are less than an hour by train or car.

Beautiful home - great experience
by SamEven better than the web posting - such a lovely and comfortable house. Well stocked kitchen, loved the wrap-around porch and water views. Very clean, comfortable chairs/sofa/beds, and no issues through the process. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your 5-star review!
Great house, gorgeous sunsets!
by KathleenWe recently spent ten days at Ships Bell; a three generation group of six. The living room area is comfortable, and the kitchen extremely well equipped. We loved looking at the abundance of really interesting and cool artwork in the home, not to mention the ocean views and sunsets. The deck is huge! The only problem was the AC; it is unbalanced. It was quite cold in the downstairs when it was an appropriate temperature on the main level. Other than this, it was perfect!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We are sorry to hear about the AC issue -- if you had let us know during your stay, we could have addressed it then. But we will make sure to resolve it. Thank you.
Great Summer Vacation!
