Travel & Leisure Magazine praises Newburyport as “one of the best laid-back beach towns in the Northeast”. First settled in 1635, Newburyport has a long and rich history. Located on the southern bank of the Merrimack River where it empties into the Atlantic Ocean, downtown Newburyport is quaint, picturesque, walkable and has many top-rated restaurants, bars, cafes and shops. We recommend The Grog for pub food, Michael's Harborside for seafood on their open-air deck, The Poynt for small plates and cocktails and The DECK for casual waterfront dining and drinks. Be sure to visit Bob’s Lobster for award-winning lobster rolls and golden-fried seafood and chowder

Lovely Beach Stay!

The property was nice and very comfortable, the location was fantastic and the hosts were extremely accommodating and communicative. The owners who live upstairs were very nice - waving down from their balcony to let us know to tell them if we need anything. We had a great stay and wanted for nothing. Would stay again! The proximity to the beach and nature preserve is perfect.

Just right

We liked the configuration of 3 bedrooms and having 1.5 bathrooms, perfect for us as grandparents with two grandchildren. We loved being able to walk right down to the beach at any time. Low tide was especially interesting. Short drive to other beach and Parker Reserve was wonderful.

Also a short walk to other beach access points, which are also great to check out. Sean is a wondering host - very responsive to any needs or questions.

Great location

We enjoyed a long weekend at the end of September. There were 3 of us having a girls weekend. There was plenty of space, very clean, comfortable mattresses, everything you need in the kitchen. The unit has been fully updated. The area is quiet and we rode bikes all over. We’d get an Uber to town to go out for dinner and shop. We had a chilly weekend, but we still walked over to the beach anyway. We had a really nice time.

Great property for family. Can't beat the closeness to beach access

Everything was as advertised. The owners are very nice and responsive. The unit worked really well with our toddler. It was safe for her and a public playground and the path to the beach are just steps from the back door. (Just be aware that the full bath has a large nice shower but no bathtub.) The kitchen suited all of our needs, we made two dinners in the house. And the mattresses were very comfortable, always an added bonus when traveling.
