Walk to Everything Great about Marblehead!
We loved our stay at this property. The house is much more historic and lived in, if you are after a pristine and modern stay, this might not be the place for you. But the house more than made up for it in character and cozy vibes, and it fit in perfectly in the charming historic neighborhood in Marblehead. The area has a lot of wonderful spots you can walk to, and the host provided historical information about the area and the house as well! We were so grateful for John’s proactive communication, we didn’t have any issues but I’m confident if we had he would have quickly resolved them! Overall my family had a wonderful weekend and we spent the drive home saying home much we’d love to make another trip in the summer to enjoy the ocean more!! Thanks John for a memorable weekend!

Fabulous Lake house!
Great location on a beautiful lake. Very friendly and responsive hosts. We hope to return in the summer to enjoy the lake!

WATERFRONT-15 min to BOS/3BdRm/2BA
Super responsive hosts and a great place to stay!

Lake Attitash Waterfront home w/ private dock
The whole experience was great. Great location and great accommodations. Katy was very responsive to all our question.

Piscataquog Reservoir House - 26 Channel Ln
Great stay at this place! We stayed there a week before Chiistmas and the place had a beautiful Christmas tree and other Christmas decorations around the home. This really made it feel like home. We were able to sit at the fireplace and have a glass of wine and it even snowed that night which totally made the stay feel like a holiday. I would highly recommend this place. It was squeekly clean, sits on the water with great views, and easy to get to.

Waterfront 4 bed/2 bath-Stunning Annisquam Sunsets
My family enjoyed staying here. It had a beautiful view from the back. Gorgeous in the morning! I loved it here and we felt at home. There was plenty of room for our family and it felt so cozy.

Relax and Enjoy
very comfortable, clean, cozy cabin on the lake. it has everything you could need. the cabin is close to other houses but the neighbors were very quiet and friendly. when the heater didn’t work, George very promptly made sure it got fixed. he couldn’t have been nicer or more efficient. when we left having lost an earbud, George, by some miracle, found it and sent it to us. wonderful hosts!!

Private Waterfront home
Parents - do not hesitate to book! This cabin was the perfect place for my family of 4 to stay. The front room with the bookshelf full of toys is where we spent the majority of our time. I enjoyed drinking coffee and taking in the view from the GIANT WINDOW SEAT (seriously perfection). I have a 10-month old and an almost 3-year old and this was seriously the perfect rental. The host offered a pack & play and a high-chair seat that worked perfectly for the baby. The toddler was entertained by all the new things to play with. The front deck is the perfect spot to get some beautiful family photos. We will be booking again if we are in the area.

Cozy & Peaceful Independent Master Suite Weymouth
Great place to stay in a residential neighborhood -- correctly described as an apartment attached to the back of a family home. It's just a quick uber from the East Weymouth commuter line station. It's a walkable distance, but not a pedestrian-friendly route. The space was ultra-clean and the bed extremely comfortable. I recommend ordering in coffee and breakfast from the nearby creperie.

ABC - Apartment by the Sea
This cozy space in a beautiful coastal neighborhood was perfect for a 1-night stay for myself, my husband, and our two dogs. Hosts were friendly and easy to work with. We found everything we needed.

#1 Completely Remodeled 3Br Arlington Heights Unit
First rate residence with very comfortable beds/pillows, and well supplied with paper products, K-cup coffee, towels, etc. Lovely,quiet neighborhood with nearby pond/trails. Hilly and scenic with many beautiful homes and yards. Our ground level flat was easy to access with our suitcases in tow. This home was updated nicely with appliances, on demand water heater, flooring, carpet, etc. We enjoyed the nearby trails, restaurants, and Trader Joe's. Host was very informative and attentive. Would definately stay here again when we visit Boston.

Central Space to Balance Life, Work Play! 7 Sleeps
Close to everything! A short walk to the T, target, cvs and multiple restraunts. We loved our stay here

Modern Apt in Boston|Near Subway|Free Parking|Safe
We had a great visit to Boston and this location was very convenient. Excellent communication with the host and a very clean and nice place to stay while visiting. Thank you!

Waterfront 2 Bedroom on private cove in Salem NH.
This place is beautiful! Hope to come back again in the future!

Walk to train, lake and downtown - pets welcome
Yanti is that host who thinks of everything. This is a wonderful location, we spent the long weekend while attending the 2025 World Figure Skating Championships in Boston and all 3 of us loved our stay. First, it's an easy walk to the commuter rail, which will have you at North Station in half an hour or less. Downtown Wakefield is adorable with some excellent restaurants and there's a nice 3+ mile route around the lake that's perfect for a run/walk. She has the sweetest doggies and I fell in love with Lily's smile. The unit is in the downstairs of a quaint home that is steps from the downtown common and has every amenity or resource I could think of. Forgot my razor, they were stocked in the cabinet. Needed to print tickets - office area had a printer. Umbrellas to walk to the train in the rain. First aid kit to dress a small cut on my finger. Washer and dryer with cleaning supplies. Literally everything. I'm so glad we chose the spot and we'll definitely be back!

Luxurious Comfortable 1BR Apt
Amazing stay! The place looks very clean and new, decorations are nice. Way better in real life than on photos. Very easy check-in, all supplies are there.

The Little House - a Historic New England cottage
The Little House was very cleaned and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. I was in town for work and the house's cozy atmosphere and view of the pond made it a great place to unwind and relax at the end of a long work day. I felt right at home. I would love to return on future business trips and it would be great to stay sometime for a more leisurely vacation. Highly recommend!

Cozy, 2BR lake-side retreat and outdoor oasis
Absolutely beautiful location. Home was very cozy. Love the kitchen! Brian is a great host. Extremely proactive, helpful and gave great recommendations. Neighborhood is quiet and those around are friendly. Definitely recommend staying at this location again. Wish I would have stayed in warmer weather to utilize the property to its full potential.

Waterfront Cottage on Chauncey Creek
Andrew's home was very comfortable, and it's location by the water enhanced the relaxed atmosphere. Andrew's communications facilitated check-in and check-out.

Lakefront! Johnson Point Cottages - “Blueberry”
This marks my third visit to the Blueberry Cottage. Perfect every time ! Great for me catching up with Family and Friends. Beautiful and Peaceful yet close to many things to do and see. 10+ out of 10. I will stay there Every chance that I can ! I didn’t want to leave. 😊❤️🍀🌸

Ponder Point waterfront cottage at Cobbetts Pond
This little cottage sits perfectly on Cobbett’s Pond and was a cozy stay for my Sister and I while traveling to the area for a funeral. Would definitely come up again to stay, especially during the warmer months to take advantage of all the amenities that Ana provides. Hands down one of my favorite Airbnb stays.

Charming Waterfront Cottage Near Cambridge/Boston
This beautiful cottage is a hidden gem! The views of the pond from three sides of the living room were a calm respite from busy daily life. The owners have put such care into every detail and have spared nothing in terms of thinking of comfort, welcoming, convenience, and pampering. From luxury linens and phone holders to fresh flowers and a welcome basket with a personal note, I immediately felt at home. The kitchen is well stocked and there is plenty of closet storage. Sabrina checked in when I first arrived and was extremely responsive with any question I had. I hope to book again and would highly recommend a stay at this sweet and comfortable place.

Lakefront cottage for a fun, relaxing getaway.
We were delighted with our stay. Everything was exactly as expected. It's a lovely lakeside cottage. We would happily return should our plans bring us back to the area. Thanks!

Lake Front with Hot Tub and New Fitness Studio
We booked our stay for a couple of nights away for our family of 4. Talita and Vinny were very welcoming to their adorable place! The cottage is right on the water on the very clean and lovely lake. We had everything we needed and I loved the way the place was decorated. We really enjoyed the stand up paddle boards and the shaded seating area. Our kiddos (9 and 11) we very happy hanging in the hot tub and tossing bread to the blue gills. Good food options nearby - we really enjoyed George's Surf n' Turf. I recommend this stay and hope to be back in the future!
