Nice place to stay in a quaint, historic town.
The property is located in the historical section of marblehead, with many beautiful properties and is close to the water and some nice in-town parks. Matt, the owner, provides exceptionally good service and is a great communicator. There is a booklet which he made up which included a lot of very helpful information, including the fact that a bus stop is just a few minutes from the property, and can link to the Blue line into Boston. We took advantage of this to go see the aquarium. We were able to find parking across the street, but Marblehead was doing street cleaning while we were there, and the reserved parking spot for the building is several blocks away. It could be challenging for some people to walk or carry luggage that distance if parking is not available across the street. I would recommend staying here if you are interested in visiting an historic New England town.

A Quaint New England Town
Marblehead was a wonderful place to stay! The houses, along with the town have a wonderful personality and history. The people were friendly and the coffee shops were wonderful. The house was open with a great view from the kitchen.

Perfect Old Town Location
This was perfect for my week in Marblehead. A few minutes stroll to the harbor, town wharf, restaurants and Old Town in general. I found street parking easily and there's a dedicated spot in a nearby lot if needed.
The kitchen has new stove and fridge, and the dining area can seat four with a yard view with plenty of day light.
The bath is nicely tiled and lit by the morning sun. The bedroom is large; enough space to lay out a mat for stretching or a resistance band workout and the bed and mattress invites rest at day's end.
The entry room is also large and I enjoyed one of the easy chairs with my feet up for reading with the north window gently lighting my book.
Matt was available in real time to answer my few questions, it's nice to have management living near.
Check in and check out were smooth and easy.
All in all, a nice treat for one or two folks.

Great town to experience
Wonderful location and super clean. Had the best time visiting and experiencing Marblehead.
Very accurate description and pictures. Easy communication with owners. The property is very clean and cute. Right in the middle of town with its own parking space. We were very happy.

Decent place to stay
It was a fairly nice place to stay. Thankfully there was a second entrance as the battery in the front door lock was dead. The kitchen could be a little better equipped but overall was fairly good. The entire building is run off of one thermostat and it was locked in a range of 66-70 degrees. Would be nice to have more control over the heat especially if you are in a unit without a thermostat. The area is very neat to see but if you are wanting to travel into Boston a fair bit, it is not the nicest drive.

Comfortable apartment in a beautiful Marblehead location
The apartment is spacious and bright. The kitchen had everything one could want. The location is within walking distance to everything including numerous seaside parks, beautiful Colonial houses, shops and restaurants. Just park your car and forget it. We had a wonderful stay.

Charming sea village away from the busy of Boston
We loved the area with the charming colonial homes, sea port, and small villages. We were still close enough to take a day trip into Boston, Lexington, Concord, and Salem. The home was simple, charmful, and a good place to rest our heads after a busy day sightseeing. We even enjoyed the local restaurants with yummy seafood dishes. We would definitely come again.

This apartment is perfect for a single or couple looking to explore the North Shore. The kitchen has gorgeous natural light all day, and the location is in a highly walkable residential neighborhood.

A wonderful stay in Marblehead
The property was tastefuuly furnished, with no signs of wear and tear. Beautiful up to date kitchen appliances. A great location in old town marblehead and no problem with parking,
I love the beautiful view from the kitchen where the sunshine was resplendent and every day I could see a little rabbit enjoying the green grass in the backyard, all to himself!
The property was clean all throughout, the bed was comfortable, and the neighborhood was quiet, friendly, with many historic churches and landmarks. There is also a grocery store within walking distance, as well as an ice cream shop...the perfect setting for an enjoyable vacation stay.
