Great little spot in the middle of Rockport. So walkable -- to shops and to Front Beach. Loved the two decks. Great to have a parking spot for our car. Easy drives to beaches in Gloucester, Newburyport, and Manchester.

Great location!

Charming cottage living with wonderful views from inside and from the large deck. Very comfortable beds and nice shower. Comfortable couch plus everything you need is here. You will love this place above the Pewter shop. Great shopping and front beach is a short walk to find seaglass. We would highly recommend staying here.

Great location!

This property was absolutely beautiful! Loved everything from the decor to an awesome deck with very nice views. The location on Bearskin Neck is so convenient to all the shops and the Pewter Shop is amazing! Also having a designated parking spot was a godsend. We will definitely be coming back again.

Labor Day Weekend

The apartment is exceptional. Easy check in and great host. Perfect location, nicely decorated, very clean, comfortable furnishings and well equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed having morning coffee and our fresh lobster dinners on the deck. We had a wonderful time in Rockport and couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Perfection

A great deal of thought went into planning this property. The use of the space was so efficient and at the same time very, very pleasant. We loved its central location to all the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed People watching from the deck and every now and then a quick ice cream run were perfect. We would definitely come back!

Top-notch place in a great location

We had the loveliest stay above The Pewter Shop. It was very clean and had everything you could possibly need, including beach bags, beach chairs and insulated cooler backpacks with ice packs in the freezer. The location on Bearskin Neck was amazing. We enjoyed walking to all the shops, restaurants, and beaches. Whale watching and sailing on a schooner were only a short drive away. 5 stars+

Five Star stay!

Chris’s place was beautifully furnished, had great storage, and felt much larger than the square footage listed in the description. Outdoor spaces were lovely and allowed for harbor views. We were less than a 5 minute walk from the Shalin Liu Performance Center and about a 5 min walk in the other direction to the headlands. The unit is above The Pewter Shop (my fave in Bearskin Neck). Chris was a very friendly and gracious host! Will definitely stay again!

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Chris’ place is gorgeous!!! My friend and I went to Rockport for the American Impressionist society meeting. The place was in the perfect location for access to all the events. The rooftop deck and balcony porch were perfect for taking in the views! Chris was extremely helpful. The house is decorated to perfection and has everything you need! The parking spot was the icing on the cake. Premiere spot!

Absolutely perfect in every way!

This newly renovated apartment above the Pewter Shop exceeded our expectations in every way! The owners thought of everything! The place was stunningly decorated and so comfortable. The added touches were such a delight. Soft blankets, beach towels, coolers and basic kitchen needs were so appreciated. Chris and Mary were available for any questions and are truly delightful people. From morning coffee on the patio through to a night stroll through the quiet town, I would 100% recommend this property!

Amazing location, parking onsite, walk to the beach and all the amenities you could need

My family ventured to Rockport to celebrate my 50th birthday and it didn’t disappoint. I was amazed at how well stocked the rental is for everything you could possibly need. Beach umbrella, beach, chairs, beach coolers all handy for a five minute walk up the beach. Plastic plates for outside use regular plates for inside use, paper towels, soap, Keurig machines stocked with some pods for our first morning’s coffee… Although we found we didn’t need it as the best coffee shop in the area is a mere 10 feet away. I was injured the week before we left so was worried about how I was going to get around, but Rockport, in particular BearSkin Neck was such a condensed little tourist spot with amazing little shops and restaurants that my sprained ankle didn’t really slow us down too much. There are stairs to get up to the balcony and entryway from the parking spot, but they were very sturdy and had an excellent railing so I didn’t have a problem at all. Our two adult sons slept in the huge king bed that was super comfortable and had an air-conditioning unit with a door out to the deck, My husband and I elected to stay in the smaller bedroom, which was an equally as comfortable queen size bed. That bedroom doesn’t have an air conditioning, but we left the door open, and the one in the hall was more than sufficient to cool down the apartment overnight. Windows open at night worked well too! Bonus was that Chris was usually downstairs at the Pawnshop - the best shop on the neck!

We really loved our stay at Chris's place! The house is extremely well-maintained and spacious for a couple with one or two kids (we only had our daughter with us, but there is plenty of room for more). It has every amenity you could possibly need, including great water pressure, which is essential when coming back from the beach, and super convenient parking. The balcony is a perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee, and the rooftop is fantastic for soaking up the sun in private.You really can't ask for a better location. You are right in the center of everything, just a two-minute walk from local shops and restaurants. Despite being so central, the house is incredibly quiet, so you don't even realize you are in such a bustling area.The location is also just a few minutes from Front Beach. If you enjoy a good morning walk, you can easily head over to the Old Garden Beach neighborhood and stroll along the coastline. Overall, we will definitely be back to enjoy both the house and the town!

The property and host were excellent! The location was ideal, right in the heart of Rockport. It was tastefully decorated, and had all the comforts of home and more. Loved the two Decks, especially the Roof Deck. Our Host Chris was a joy to work with, and shared the history of the property, and The Pewter Shop, which goes back generations. We will be booking here again! Thank You so much!

Perfect rental

This rental was the best mix of Rockport charm and beautiful modern updates throughout the apartment. It is beautifully decorated. The kitchen had anything you might need, the hosts were very accommodating. It was the nicest rental we have ever visited in Rockport. We also enjoyed the downtown vibe and the beautiful deck with ocean views.
