Fantastic space, hosts were very kind and quick to respond. Very clean and comfortable and in a very easy to locate area! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to get away for a little R&R
My boyfriend and I had a great stay here and Julie was a very kind and attentive host. We would travel to Boston during the day time as it was only about a 30-40min drive. The property and town was very peaceful and was also a nice break away from the city. The place was very cozy and the bed was incredible - we felt very rested each morning, after walking miles throughout downtown Boston each day prior. Will definitely stay here again on our next Boston trip. :)
Great location when visiting the Lexington/Concord/Boston/Salem area. Well stocked property that was clean and comfortable. Good commercial with property owner. Would definitely stay again and would recomend to others.
Really well designed small studio with loft. The space is clean and cozy and in a fantastic town with a great general store and walking trails nearby. Very easy access to Concord and Lexington but without the traffic!

Honestly I loved everything about this property. The decor is cute and retro, it's impeccably clean, the quality of the mattresses/pillows/bedding is outstanding, farmers markets are close by, the area is beautiful, and it's just overall super cozy and warm.
My romantic vacation was totally enhanced by this charming studio/loft, and I would not only highly recommend staying here to anyone, but also would definitely book again.
Clean and well stocked for making hot beverages and our picnic dinner. Just right for one night stop on our fall sightseeing trip in the area. Bed was comfortable with very clean and fresh linens. Right on the road at a stop sign juncture so was a bit noisy, and it would be lovely to be able to open the back door to the grassy yard behind the building, and fresh air. They are remodeling other spaces so maybe there are changes in the works.
I live in Florida and came back to MA to see family. My sister lives in Lowell and highly recommended Carlisle. It was tricky finding the driveway but the owner sent me an aerial view which was perfect. It was just me and this studio totally met my needs. There’s a market 2 doors up. Perfect. I would stay again. The owners were GREAT communicators!!
Everything was in its place and comfy for a single person staying for business! Very private and safe. Location in the center of a wooded rural-ish town near lots of historic sites! Could use a comfier couch :) but thats probably not a deal breaker for sightseers who will be out and about (I was working a lot from the rental itself which was all otherwise great). Steps away from country store with coffee and sandwiches.
The space was clean and comfortable. It's on a somewhat busy road but it's not too loud. The bed was very comfortable. The only downside was that there's no way to do any cooking, there's only a mini fridge and a microwave. There's not a toaster or even a cutting board for chopping fruit/veggies. Besides this, it was an easy and comfy stay.
Unique spot to call home while exploring Minuteman National Park! Host did a wonderful job with communicating instructions and expectations. Lots to see and do in the area!
The place was clean but very small. There was very few places to put anything. Very cozy.

Charming and impeccably clean place to stay for a quick trip out to the Greater Boston Area for travel and exploration. Easy access to main roads and visiting Kimball Farm for some great ice cream right down the road is an absolute must!
A very talented person put this space together and utilized every inch of space. Everything you could need is provided. We arrived a day early to attended an event at the Wayside Inn. The location was perfect as we did some site seeing to Concord center, Kimball’s ice cream and Monument Park.
Intimate, thoughtfully designed hideaway for two short stay travelers. Very clean, good communication. Some glitches with wifi but owner was responsive. Tight quarters; comfortable overnight base rather than a place to hang out. Lovely location, short drive to Concord.
Just what we were looking for, somewhere local to stay while our house was being worked on. Small, but definitely cozy rather than cramped. Short walk to a nice little deli, which was nice while working from "home". Would definitely stay again if we needed somewhere in the area.
This was a great place to stay. The location was perfect and I appreciated all the tourist and eating recommendations. It was close to all the Concord attractions and the train into Boston. It was a perfect space for two people. Check it out if you are in the area.
The owner/host is wonderful and responsive and patient. The unit is adorable and unique and well appointed. And, I would absolutely stay there again, if in the area. The unit is tough to find and VRBO, doesn't help as they didn't or wouldn't post pictures of the outside, which would help immensely. Not a big problem though because the host guided me in step-by-step with patience of an angel. If your hesitating don't this little place is a charm.
