Charming, well appoint, clean home. A perfect location to walk to "old town" and the newer downtown area. We had a wonderful stay and hope to book again.
We loved the area around the home! Quick access to Salem, harbors and beaches. Cute local shops just around the corner and great places to eat. The home was perfect for the two of us. Our host was fantastic and made sure we had everything we needed! Cannot wait to return!!
This place was comfortable, clean and in a perfect location to walk to town, the water, and enjoy summer in Marblehead. Look forward to staying here again!
We enjoyed the little cottage tucked away in the historic district. We were there for a wedding so it was a great place to land in between events. It is well maintained and well provisioned.
Nothing but good things to say about this cottage -- it was incredibly cozy and charming, the host was accommodating, and the interior decor showed a lot of thought put into it. Highly recommend.

Wonderful and welcoming cottage!
We came east from Seattle for a wedding in Salem - finding a perfect private refuge in Natasha's home! Every detail thought of and attended to - home is central, adorable and we had a FAB stay! Thank you!

Beautiful! The house is private, clean and decor is simple and elegant.
Perfect home. The master bedroom is like walking into a magazine, bed so comfortable I requested info about it. Clean, secluded and bright.
A beautiful home in a beautiful location. Everything one needs stay in or venture out. The owner is very kind, receptive, and is an excellent communicator. Lots to do and see within steps of the front door. Lots of dining options nearby and very walkable.
The pictures in the listing (or the word "cottage" might suggest that the space is small. It isn't. 2 floors. 2 bathrooms a living room and a lovely sitting area on the second floor in the bedroom make this home kinda perfect. Our daughter just relocated to Salem and we came for the weekend to help set up shop. She and her partner spend much of the weekend here as we made shopping lists and edited resumes. The kitchen is fully stocked and we made a great big pot of soup and had everything we needed. The kitchen space seems small until you start to use it. Dinner for 4 at the counter - happy as clams. Also walking distance to a Starbucks,a 7-Eleven and a main section of town. Not only would we come again, we are PLANNING on it. Natasha was a wonderful host and her sense of style is absolutely first rate.

Wonderful, beautiful neighborhood, lovely home & great host!!
We loved our time in Marblehead! What a great town! We enjoyed going to the coast & lighthouse. The pizza at Marblehead Pizza was delicious! The town is safe and very enjoyable. We would love to come back!
Natasha's home is very beautiful and modern. The wood floors and decor is perfect. The house was filled with everything you need for a great stay. We were quite comfortable after long days touring the Boston area. The master bed is very comfortable! The sheets and towels smelled clean and were soft. Most mornings we made breakfast in the kitchen. Having a washer/dryer was so nice! Wifi worked great. Any question we had Natasha was quick to help us.
The parking area is nice and big with entrance to the backdoor. We always felt safe.
We drove all over the East coast. Cape Elizabeth to Connecticut. Six states in all. The Norman Rockwell museum is so cool & quite a drive. If you rent a car from Costco they offer a $19 EZpass for the duration of your trip which was a big money saver. Also included is a second driver for free. Always book through Costco.com! We used the T, subway/ public transport for Boston touring. You can park your car at Wonderland station. Nantucket was a really fun day too!
Such a great place to visit!! We made lots of great memories! History came alive and we felt blessed to have a great place to stay!
Thank you and we hope to be back!
We will tell our friends and family to stay at Natasha's in Marblehead!
This was our second stay at this property. We were pleased to be able to secure this spot again. Natasha was in touch with us at the start of our stay, making sure that we had everything we needed and to make sure things met our expectations. She has provided necessities as well as thoughtful items to make our stay comfortable. This time she also had holiday decorations placed in the house to keep with the season. The decor, the furnishings, the linens, the king size bed, kitchen equipment are all very good quality. All designed to let you feel at home. She has succeeded!
This property is in an amazing location for the full small town New England experience! Lots of local eateries within walking distance, and a short drive to Salem! Natasha is amazing, and very responsive. We had an absolute blast on our trip!
This property is very nice and very clean. It is located within walking distance of cute shops and restaurants. There is parking at the side of the property so it is easy to transfer heavy luggage inside. There is a muted church bell that rings every hour which might disturb light sleepers. We were just off a red eye flight so it didn't really bother us. We had a great stay!
This place is a GEM! Natasha was an amazing host and checked on us daily. The house was spotless and so beautiful. We loved our stay and plan to come back!
Lovely place, was very roomy for two of us.
All amenities are in new working order. Extremely warm outside on our visit so we drove most places, in normal conditions would have walked, everything is very close. Town of Marblehead is a gem and would stay at Natasha’s property again. Thank you!
This property exceeded expectations! It was much larger than the photos show, three levels of living space, plus two outdoor areas. The house was so light and airy and had beautiful elements of old pine floors and exposed rafters in an open ceiling. The brand new washer and dryer were a plus as well.
This was a warm, charming and relaxing place to stay as we toured and visited many places in the area. Our host, Natasha, was wonderful and communicated very well with us. My daughter wanted to move in upon first entering the property! It was better than I expected or the description showed. Definitely worth the visit! Thank you!
We are so happy with our stay at Marblehead. We were just 15 mins from Salem and 30 from Boston. Natasha was extremely accommodating and we’re very thankful. The house was pristine
And more beautiful than the pictures.
This property is amazing. From beginning to end it was such a great experience. The house is situated in a great neighborhood and we never felt unsafe. It is a quick drive to Boston and other smaller towns nearby. The property is super clean and honestly beautiful! We could not have asked for a better property. This won't be our last visit to this property if we ever find ourselves in the area again.
I truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect home for my daughter and I to stay during our first Halloween weekend trip to Salem. Natasha was warm and welcoming and her home was just the perfect size. Only 10 minutes out of Salem, located in its own cute bustling little town, there plenty of things for us to do and eat there! Would highly recommend staying here! We will be back!
