"Captain's Lookout" on Wonson Cove, Rocky Neck - Gloucester | House in Gloucester

1 Bedroom House in Gloucester
Enjoy the ambiance of a New England Seaside Getaway, without the crowds!
Quick Note: We have a two night minimum stay Sunday through Thursday, and a five night minimum for any rentals that include Friday and or Saturday night.
This lovely, romantic townhouse sits near the water with fantastic views of Gloucester Harbor, especially from the middle and rooftop decks.
Located on a quiet side street in the seaside neighborhood of Rocky Neck, a peninsula that hangs out into Gloucester Harbor. The house is on a very private, and quiet street which ends at the water where there is a boat ramp (about 80 feet from the property). Here, you can launch your kayak, canoe, or paddle-board (nothing larger).
Rocky Neck is a fun, festive art colony with many active music-filled restaurants and art galleries. The Gloucester Stage Company is a 7 minute walk. There is a small beach around the corner for swimming, and Good Harbor Beach, one of the top beaches on the North Shore, is just 7 minutes away by car.
This townhouse is the front unit of a two-family house. I’ve been renting the rear townhouse for over 30 years. Visit https://www.vrbo.com/181237 to see the reviews (Ranked “Exceptional” with a rating of 9.8/10, and over 60 reviews).
