Lake house vacation rentals in Salem

Great location! Visited my daughter at Wellesley and loved the convenience of getting to/from the college and the walking proximity to town! Easy to get to the home, and Patty was very responsive and helpful through my stay

Fantastic spot for a family or friend trip. There was ample room for our group of 6 adults. The home was immaculate with spectacular water views. We even used the paddle boat to explore the pond. We didn’t use the fire pit due to high winds but it is a really cool fire pit for another less windy visit. Looking forward to returning in the summer to enjoy the water.

This is our second time staying at Carols place. We really enjoy going there. Lovely home. Comfortable, quiet. Bedroom with a nice sitting room overlooking a lake. Arol is very nice. Look forward to staying there again.

Although we were extremely busy during our stay, it was very nice to come back and relax!! We loved the view of the lake and the main bedroom was very comfortable. It was great having a full size washer and dryer as well!! And with the cold mornings, the house was nice and warm. The instant hot water was much appreciated for the shower too!! Our host checked in with us to make sure we didn't need anything while we were there. Very nice and cozy.... The location was perfect for our running around....Will look forward to staying again!!

This home was inviting and comfortable. It felt just like home. Although our trip was cut short for personal reasons, we were able to recharge, relax and catch up with friends in a relaxed space.

I will recommend Jennifer’s place to everyone and I’ll be back next time when visiting Massachusetts. Thank you Jennifer for your hospitality 😊

We had a wonderful weekend stay at this little cottage! We were up in the area for a wedding and needed a place to stay close to the venue, so the location was ideal for us. We were traveling with my toddler son and it was really convenient to have a pack n play available that we didn’t need to bring with us. The kitchen had plenty of space and amenities and the view to the lake from the living area was so beautiful! My only critique is that the thermostat was hard to control and figure out and the 2nd floor got extremely warm despite our attempts to reset the temperature. Other than that it was the perfect weekend stay for our family.

The house was nicely located facing a lovely park and lake. The location was excellent and fit our needs perfectly. We hope to return!

We had the perfect stay. The place was beautiful. The scenery was great. 100% will recommend very peaceful.

Katy was super responsive. Got there much later than anticipated but answered us immediately when we had a question. She was super flexible about letting us dock our boat there for even later than checkout. The space is very nice. Great view! Would definitely stay again.

Accommodation in a quiet and peaceful area close to restaurants and transportation. Bapu is a very welcoming and available host! I recommend it!

Excellent stay in your accommodations. Thank you for being so accommodating to my needs and recommending local eateries. If I am back in the area, I will be sure to stay with you again.

My family and I had a great stay at Shawn’s place. The house was clean, newly updated, and fit our needs just fine. There was a mostly fenced in yard in the back which was great for the dog and we enjoyed on a nice afternoon. We were pleasantly surprised how close it was to everything. It was 5 mins to the train station and about a 30 minute train ride to north station. Aside from Boston, we found all sorts of things to do in the nearby surroundings including arcades, plenty of restaurants and the zoo. The nearby park, lake, and playground were a big hit with the kids. We would recommend to anyone looking to be accessible to Boston but also have a suburban experience and access to everything MA has to offer. We look forward to coming back!

I can’t rave enough about this incredible Airbnb! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking location—nestled in the woods on the stunning “big Parker”quarry. The house itself was so well-equipped, cozy, and comfortable, making it the perfect retreat for our month-long stay. The views were nothing short of spectacular, and waking up to the serene quarry backdrop was the highlight of each day. Whether we were enjoying coffee on the deck (even in the winter temps!), exploring the surrounding natural beauty, or just relaxing inside, we felt completely at home. We truly didn’t want to leave. This trip will remain in our hearts for a lifetime. If you’re looking for an extraordinary getaway where you can disconnect, recharge, and immerse yourself in nature, look no further. We cannot recommend this place enough, and we can’t wait to plan our next stay here!

Betsy’s home was wonderful. I had the whole first floor home with private entries and porches. The home is beautiful, it has quality finishes and furnishings. Loved the kitchen, bathroom and the bedroom has a very comfortable bed. Betsy even had the home decorated with a Xmas tree and candles, there was coffee, spices and more in the kitchen. It’s a great place and I plan on returning when I come to the Boston area. It’s an easy walk to the commuter rail that takes you to the North Station. I really appreciate Betsy’s hospitality. Thanks so much. Mary

The space is a nice escape from the busyness of the city, but still close enough for easy access. Adam was accommodating to our changing plans, and helpful when we asked for advice!

legitimately on the lake to the point you could technically fish from the dining area. Beautiful view and a nice deck. everything was clean and exactly as it sounds when reading the description. I would absolutely stay here again!

20 White Pine Knoll was wonderful. We had an extended stay while we closed on our new house. Karen was always responsive and extremely helpful. If we decide to come back to Summer Village, 20 White Pine Knoll will be where we stay! Highly recommended.

Spacious and tidy place to stay for a weekend located in a peaceful area and free parking. Thank you Jason for the hospitality.

Barbara’s place is what I would call a vacation spot. It was quiet except for the fireworks, but all and all I enjoyed the place. It was very clean and cozy. I would definitely be coming back. Thanks Barbara

Comfortable apartment with lots of space in a very quiet neighborhood. About a 15-20 minute drive to Harvard and MIT. Definitely a good choice for families visiting campuses in the Cambridge area.

Great house. Walkable to dunks as well as canobie. Also next to dunks is a rail trail walk/run/bike path that seemed nice. We didn’t explore the whole thing but a nice plus for morning exercise. We enjoyed a bit of basketball in the yard too. Plus the house has TVs in every room so all can enjoy a show. Great spot, great house.
