Gorgeous 5 bedroom (4 on the second floor and 1 basement suit) home located in a historically significant area of Salem North River.

The home is fully furnished with a combination new luxurious and antique pieces. The kitchen is a gourmet chef's dream. Featuring a gas cook top with grill and griddle attachments, electric double ovens and 2 sinks for easy preparation of meals. Fabulous flow on the first floor between the dining room, living room and kitchen making it ideal to entertain. Many satisfied international families and others from across the country have made this home a destination for family celebrations and holidays.

Booked this place for our girls weekend from Michigan to Salem, the owner was incredibly accommodating. Comfy beds! Clean and very pleasant to stay in! Everything fun to do was a 30 minute or less walk! Highly recommend it here if you’re looking for somewhere nice to stay in Salem!
The house was perfect for our extended family - it was spacious and clean and had everything we needed. It was also a short walk to downtown Salem with all the museums and restaurants. We enjoyed everything about our stay. Thank you!

The house is stocked with just about everything that is in normal home! Very clean. There's a park just down the block on the water. We walked everywhere! The owner is awesome, we had questions and she replied quickly.
Our extended family celebrated a wonderful holiday weekend at Leslie’s Retreat! The home was clean, comfortable and spacious! We enjoyed every moment - it truly felt like our home away from home for Christmas!
We stayed for the weekend with friends and family we havent seen for some time. It was the perfect location with a short walk to down town Salem and the T into boston. The property was extremely clean and well kept. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
This property was perfect for our extended family. Everyone had their own space and it never felt crowded. It was in walking distance to downtown Salem and in driving distance to many other sights. The house was stocked with everything you could need.
Comfortable property. Everything you need for your stay. Ample room for everyone. Close to all attractions. Well equipped kitchen. Property is as described.
This house was perfect for us. Plenty of room, comfortable beds, quiet neighborhood, and an easy walk to downtown.
The host was very responsive and friendly. I would highly recommend starting at this property.
Nice house, 1/2 mile walk from downtown, easy to navigate. We only booked the upstairs so had to ensure laundry was available via request even though it was listed as available with rental. Suggestion book for food and activities was helpful.
We had a great time and couldn’t have asked for a better manager and house. The space in the house and the amenities were great. Meg was very helpful and prompt when needed.
We had a family wedding in Beverly and needed a pet friendly House as we have 2 dogs that go everywhere with us. The House was great, plenty of room for all of us, very roomy, and comfortable rooms , comfortable beds, excellent air conditioning as it was a scorcher one day, so close to everything, parks, stores, Salem Center, coffee shops, restaurants, and the wedding venue. Meg, property owner was incredible, stopped by to meet us, made sure we got in OK. Just a great get-away for all of us. Thanks Meg!!!
This property is amazing, it was spacious, spotless, and in a great location. Meg provided us with all the necessities and convenience of home. It was creatively decorated for Halloween and every bed was comfortable!
Don’t hesitate to rent this fabulous home!
Home was perfect for our family get together. Location was super close to downtown shops and tours. Plenty of towels and blankets. Lots of hot water for our group of 10. We had 3 vehicles and had a pretty easy time street parking one. Check in email was detailed and helpful. Check out process was simple, for which we were very grateful. Great stay overall!
It was a comfortable stay. Unfortunately we didn't get to spend lots of time in the property. We were out most of the time. But the accommodation was excellent
