Public transportation stops right on our corner, or just sit back and take the ferry . 10 minutes to the boardwalk, boats, shops at Marina Bay and ferry to historic Boston. Local bike trails weave through protected marshlands teeming with wildlife. Come photograph the swans, herons and egrets. All water view photos were taken from in front of the house.
Meet the local lobsterman on Houghs Neck dock and buy lobster dinner fresh off the boat. Lobster pot and essentials provided.

Quirky little home from home.
Only reason I couldn't give this a 5 star, is the traffic noise in the bedrooms. If you're looking for a typical American apartment, with gleaming kitchen and en suites, this isn't for you. It's a charming, quirky, wobbly floored apartment in an historic house. We had a fantastic time. Debbie is the best owner we have come across, just so helpful. She has put a lot of thought into the little things, making it easy to fit right in. There is plenty of towels and bedding in the closets, and equipment in the kitchen. Even a proper kettle for us Brits to make tea! We stayed 10 days after a week in NY. It's a perfect base for visiting Boston, and trips around MA. There is no outside space, but we sat in the sea wall and gazed at the amazing views over the bay to Boston. Debbie, thank you so much for a fantastic holiday.

Loved Our Stay
The location is excellent for getting into Boston either by driving or by parking at train station and taking the train. The view of the Boston skyline from the house is breathtaking. The house is very comfortable and unique. Pretty much everything is provided for you. Great communication with the host. We sure hope to come back again.

Awesome view of Boston
The house is nearly on the water. Only one street separates the house from the bay. Across the bay is an unobstructed view of downtown Boston. We took Ubers into town each day and never waited more than 10 minutes for a pick up. The drive into Boston was rather easy. The house had comfortable furniture and beds. The owner communicated well and even had a warm loaf of bread waiting for us. The bathroom was well-stocked with 2-ply toilet paper! If I make it back to Boston, I will definitely stay here again.

A lot lopsided....
We will start with the fact that all the reviews were favorable, but we wondered if those folks ever stayed anywhere else that they could actually compare the property with? Yes, it was an old place, but there are a lot of things that you really don't know before getting there. One being that the floors are so lopsided and slanted that it is hard to navigate in some areas. The master bedroom runs completely downhill, and the walk-in closet makes you feel as if you are going down a long hill, you slide right into the corner. This is not a good place for anyone that may have trouble walking or a disability. The main description notes 3 bedrooms, be sure to read the fine print when you scroll down because one of the bedrooms is actually the living room. There are roads on either side of the home, so you hear traffic constantly. If you expect to hear waves like the description notes, you will be disappointed. The view is very pretty, but the photos on line are taken from an upstairs window, which you will not have. You have access to the downstairs only. There is no place outside to actually sit and enjoy the view. The massage chair in the living room does not work very well and is extremely loud. The bathroom could use a little updating as the shower stall does not look very appealing and the bath mat is stained. The towels were a bit worn and stained also. Most of the brochures that are there are out of date by a few years, so you may not get accurate information if you rely on them (we left some new ones). The mattresses are not very comfortable, the twin beds sink way down and the bed in the living room bangs and clunks every time you move. The description also notes 10 minutes from one place to another, but it's not as easy as it sounds, especially if relying on public transportation. We asked for directions to the ferry and was provided with a printout of a map page with no directions. We were a bit disappointed by that. The kitchen sink also had a horrible odor coming from it - we believe it was from the garbage disposal, which should probably be cleaned. If you want to stay away from it all and have your own car, this may be a good area. Just not what we expected based on the description. It wasn't the worst place we ever encountered, but probably wouldn't use it again. A little too far from everything when relying on public transportation, and the uneven floors throughout were challenging.

Why they chose this property

You can't be closer to the water. Walk the kayaks across the road and launch right in front of the house. Fish, or go for a swim.
I say 5 person comfortable limit but I have had families bring a couple of extra kids and throw them on the futon. No problem.

What makes this property unique

You can have a beach vacation and also be able to enjoy the rich culture and history of Boston.
