Second stay as good as the first!
Once again we had a wonderful time staying at this beach house! I knew from our stay before that all we needed to pack were clothes and bring some food. Bob, the owner has made sure that the house has everything you will need. You can't beat the location right on the beach with views of Magnolia Pier. Every day we woke up to watch a family of ducks make their way across the harbor. Can't wait to come back next year!

It was a perfect spot for 2 pre-teens to explore and be active on the beach while I could sit back and relax in the back yard without getting sandy and still have a visiual of the kids the entire time.

Heaven on the Bay
We had booked daily activities on our Sisters Trip, but ended up hardly leaving our beautiful beach house. Instead we walked the beach and soaked in the relaxing time of just hanging out together.

Idyllic stay
My family of 10 first came for the weekend & after they left 7 girlfriends came for 3 nights in perfect weather. Aside from the hurricane that was supposed to arrive the second day we were there, Mother Nature was kind to us. Our host was so accommodating & the location on this wonderfully quiet little beach, was perfect. All who came, want to come back!

Terrific location!
This Beach House is directly on the water in Magnolia. My family swam, snorkeled and kayaked all day and it was calm enough to have a campfire at night. The house has a nice open floor plan, so activities easily flowed from porch to living room to kitchen area.

R&R
Manchester-by-the-Sea is a hidden gem! I can still hear the waves on the beach as we searched for sea glass. We had family and friends visiting and everyone just loved the location, the view and the house. The bathrooms were a bit dated but certainly worked well. There are 5+ bedrooms with very comfortable beds and plenty of room for everyone. The lower level was perfect for the younger crowd with a large TV, sitting area and game table. The living area on the main floor is very comfortable and well appointed, however we spent all of our time on the beach, on the patio and on the porch. This was a truly relaxing vacation and we all had a wonderful time.

Awesome... The perfect place to get away and enjoy Cape Anne
This house is absolutely perfect for those that enjoy the Northern Mass. coastal lifestyle. The property has a million dollar view of Magnolia Harbor, it easily to function within and comfortably accommodated our family trip with 11 adults. We utilize Vrbo properties often and this ranks at the top for many reason. As mentioned, the location is incredible, the house is very comfortable, the kitchen has everything you could possible need, parking is easy, access to the beach is a few easy steps, perfect communication with the owner, great details such as fresh flowers arranged in the kitchen and living area, lots of extra stuff to make the trip fun (kayaks, corn hole, games, chairs, etc.) There was nothing overlooked at this property. We will 100% return as a repeat customer.

Amazing stay!
Could not beat this location- we hated to leave! We loved our stay so much that we ended up extending our trip. All the comforts of home you need, and all the luxuries to make a great beach vacation, including a fire pit ON the beach! We brought our baby Golden retriever who loved romping in the sand for our morning and evening walks. We will definitely be returning! Bob was super responsive and a true pleasure to work with!

Magnolia Beach
Wonderful family house on the beach, we wanted a property in the same area as some family friends - we know the area well and Magnolia Beach was a perfect fit. The house had everything we needed with the big bonus of being able to bring our dog, plus the garage was full of beach toys and games. The kitchen is very well equipped, the bedrooms and reception rooms were comfortable and suited our needs. We were so thrilled with the garden, beach and house that we didn't venture very far. It is a gem of a property & Bob was a great host.

Beautiful vacation with my family! The kids blew bubbles, flew kites. swam & kayaked. The garage has an assortment of toys and balls that the kids loved. We had fires on the beach at night right in front of the house! It was perfect- Bob is very responsive to any needs that may arise.

Memorable vacation stay
We rented this property for our daughter and her family, two adults and 5 young children. The children practically lived on the beach each day. The house is spacious enough to provide enough room for a large family to spread out and be comfortable. Bob, the owner, went above and beyond to provide the best communication and support we've ever had in any rental we've done. We all appreciated his thoughtfulness and willingness to accommodate the needs of parents with many young children. It's a vacation they'll never forget.

Perfect Thanksgiving getaway
This property was a perfect fit for our extended family (and our dogs) to enjoy Thanksgiving weekend. The furnishings are charming and comfortable and the glassed-in/screened porch is ideal for enjoying the beach views. The modern kitchen has everything you could possibly need for cooking. Whereas most rentals supply only "starters", this host supplied more paper goods, dish soap, etc then we could possibly use. While the bathrooms could use updating to the same level as the rest of the house, they were perfectly clean and met our needs (great water pressure too!). Beds were very comfortable and the whole house was spotless. Even though it was Thanksgiving, the beach had nearly constant activity with lots of people walking their dogs. The owner, Bob, was very communicative and helpful. We highly recommend this rental and would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful place, great location
I rented this property for a 10 day stay around the holidays since my home is currently being renovated and I needed more room with my my adult and college age kids coming home. There was enough space for all of us and the house had everything we needed. I currently live in the same town so I knew what a great location it was right on the beach. The owner allowed my two dogs to stay and they enjoyed the beach a few times a day. It's a short walk up the street to Dunkin or 525 restaurant as well and the convenience store a block up. We had one small issue that the owner came quickly to fix (the owners live less than 2 miles away). The owner was very responsive to any questions. I would definitely rent again if we had the need!

Quintessential New England Beach Cottage
I almost hate to write this review, because I would love to keep this beach house my little secret. A beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers welcomed our arrival to this well maintained gem. And then you are drawn to the amazing sun porch that overlooks the patio and beach. I have to be honest, I did spend a lot of time curled up under a throw blanket on the porch. And there are plenty of throw blankets! Which I have found to be very rare in a vacation rental. The decor is pretty and really relates to the area which is a nice touch. The beds are comfortable and the bedding is cozy. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plenty of plates and glassware. A quick drive into Gloucester to the grocery store for food, marshmallows and firewood. And a 2 minute walk to the corner store for anything we might have forgotten. We spent our days walking the beach searching for sea glass and shells. Plenty of corn hole tournaments were had on the seaside lawn. Evenings were spent around the fire chatting about who was going to be brave enough to jump off the pier into the frigid ocean. Sure enough on Saturday, as the “rock” finally became submerged 3 of our bravest made the leap! We celebrated their courage that night by walking to the local pub and singing karaoke into the wee hours. We had such an amazing time here at the Magnolia Beach House. We can't wait to get back and try out the kayaks and swim during a warmer time. Bob, our host was perfect! Checking in occasionally to make sure things were going well. He did have to stop by on our last day to “batten down the hatches” because a storm was rolling in. But he contacted us beforehand to check and make sure that it was all right to come by. It was great to meet him and get a chance to chat.

Thanksgiving Stay
Overall we had a great stay for Thanksgiving week. We were a group from 5 years old to 80 years old and everyone had a great time. Bob is a great host and very accommodating. It was amazing to walk out of the house right onto the beach. We had a brief power outage (only 1 hour), but Bob responded immediately with candles and flashlights. The bathrooms were dated, but worked well.

Fall getaway
Walking into the house upon our arrival was absolutely breathtaking. We walked onto the porch to a perfect sea view and the wind blowing through the opened windows, it was picturesque. Bob, the owner, was great with communicating with us during our trip for any needs that arised. The house was fully stocked with linens, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, and all of the other necessities needed for a long weekend fall getaway to the beach. We are already planning our return trip!
