Walk to Everything Great about Marblehead!
Beautiful home in quiet area that's only a 13 minute drive to Salem. It was perfect for my Bachelorette (9 people), we each had our own bed with plenty of room to spread out. Awesome host, very responsive with all of our questions and super nice. Thanks John!!

THE RED HOUSE - Entire Private Home
We had a lovely time. The garden pathway to the house was beautiful with several flowers in bloom. The house was quaint and quiet. It felt well put together and was perfect for a weekend visit.

WATERFRONT-15 min to BOS/3BdRm/2BA
Thomas and Jenny’s airbnb was a great and spacious place to decompress after a family event and enjoy the riverview and the birds-including swans and their cygnets! The kitchen has anything you could possibly need for cooking if you were there for a longer stay. The house is awesome-wood floors and high ceilings and plenty of couch space and a dining room. We didn’t use the back deck due to the weather, but it would be a nice place to relax on a sunny day. Also, the king bed was extremely comfortable! The location was convenient for us to walk to visit Moody Street (less than a mile) but the house is tucked in next to an office park so there is not as much of a neighborhood feel in the immediate area-but the river views out back and the comfort of the home more than make up for that! Thomas and Jenny responded right away to our questions. They are strict with how many people can visit during the day (no more than 4) to keep noise down for their neighbors. We really enjoyed our stay!

Lakefront House Boston, Plymouth, Cape Cod
Absolutely beautiful views & setting overlooking the water. We loved our short, but very lovely stay here. The kids (and us!) loved the finished downstairs area w/ bedroom and bathroom!

Lakefront-Dock-Grill-Firepit-Wood Stove
Darryl’s house was extremely enjoyable. It had everything we needed, and we had a very relaxing time at the lake. It felt private, amazing views, and was very comfortable.

Charming Lake Cottage access Boston and Providence
We stayed here for a wedding at the local venue “the Lake Pearl.” David’s place was great. Very cozy and unique. Lots of beautiful art. We enjoyed it thoroughly. He was responsive to anything that we needed. Very private and nature filled backyard. Right up the road from the lake itself. Just as a note for those with little ones. The loft space albeit great for most doesn’t have a railing or wall blocking someone from the floor edge. Again. Fine for most but something to be aware of. We were ok with it but didn’t realize that when we chose the home.

Piscataquog Reservoir House - 26 Channel Ln
My family had a great time. The location was perfect for us. Private, but close to everything we needed. We spent a day in Boston, about a 90 minute drive. About the same to Portland Maine for a day. Manchester/Boston airport was only 20 minutes away. Highly recommend Tuscan Village in Salem, NH about 30 minutes away. Great shopping, dining, and entertainment venue.

1 of a Kind Pond-Front Home, Minutes from Downtown
The house is amazing! It has everything that you would need and is so comfortable. The property is peaceful, and it feels like you’re on your own little island while still being minutes from stores and restaurants. We had a perfect weekend celebrating some milestone birthdays in our family.

Tuxbury Suite at the Amesbury Farmhouse
We stayed here for a week and used it as a home location for day trips each day. We easily got to antique stores in New Hampshire and Maine and we were close enough to Boston to get to Mount Auburn and Salem. Everything was just as pictured on the website and our host responded to us very quickly whenever we had a question. Absolutely enjoyed being able to watch the sunset from our room and enjoy the wonderful bird songs in the morning and the frogs and crickets at night.

Cozy & Peaceful Independent Master Suite Weymouth
Home away from!! I grew up in Weymouth and went home for nephew’s graduation. This place was very comfortable and loved the location. Was right in the middle of everything from Boston to local suburbs. Thankyou Rofleza.

Penthouse Pet Friendly Pond Front Inn
My boyfriend, our dogs and I had a great weekend getaway! It was quiet and peaceful, and the location was beautiful. There was plenty of space for all staying and Debra was very friendly and helpful. Huge choice of nearby restaurants and activities. The only downfall was inability to swim in the pond itself due to bacteria counts - totally out of Debra's control! She was able to give us recommendations on other swimming spots and we had a fantastic time swimming with our pups. Would absolutely recommend and hope to stay here again!

The Art Experience II
Daniel’s Airbnb was a cozy and creative space convenient to our plans with friends in Dracut and Topsfield, MA. We needed to check in very late at night and Daniel made sure that lights were on for us prior to arrival and we knew the passcode ahead of time. We appreciated that the bathroom was stocked with shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Daniel’s Airbnb is one that we would definitely book again.

Beautiful Lakeside Apt between Boston and Cape Cod
2nd time staying here... we love it! Beautiful location and all the amenities to make our stay comfortable!

Central Square Lux Studio 2-Queen beds MIT/Harvard
Great location! We loved the amenities in the building and took advantage of the gym and beautiful rooftop

Beautiful studio/water front
Our stay at Kristina’s place was perfect for a weekend reunion at Brown. We were able to do laundry locally after traveling for a week and before traveling another two. It was quiet, serene and tastefully decorated. A great escape from the hustle and crowds of downtown providence and the brown campus. We needed more toilet paper and Kristina brought it within minutes. Great host and highly recommend the Airbnb! The bed was super comfy too!

Walk to train, lake and downtown - pets welcome
This was great stay for my family. We celebrated a daughter’s graduation from Tufts U and also had a reunion of sorts with a friend from childhood. Location is excellent - close to Boston, restaurants, a lake with lots of places to walk. Yanti is a friendly accommodating host and the apartment has many amenities and nice touches that made us feel comfortable and at home. Next time we’re coming thru we will certainly seek out this apartment again.

Waterfront Cottage on Chauncey Creek
This Airbnb is an absolute hidden gem! It is a peaceful spot surrounded by nature in an convenient location. Inside, it's cozy and feels just like home. It’s very clean, the bed is extremely comfortable, and it’s very quiet. The spacious outdoor area is a dream, offering so many spots to sit with loved ones right by the water, from the fire pit to the dock and deck. The photos don't even begin to capture its beauty. We made lifelong memories in the backyard. The surrounding towns are packed with natural beauty and history, there is so much to do and so many lobster rolls to be eaten (I probably gained a few pounds exploring all the delicious food in Portsmouth). Andrew was an incredibly responsive and helpful host, full of good recs and making the whole experience seamless. The check out process was especially easy compared to some of my recent Airbnb’s, it was really nice being able to check out of an without having to do a laundry list of chores first 😅

Little Red Lake House
Laura was an amazing host! She was quick to respond to some things that popped up that we needed help with. The house is exactly as pictured and described. The area is very peaceful, and we used the kayaks daily. While there weren't "extra" items like salt and pepper or any seasonings for cooking or larger bottles of shampoo and soap, the kayaks made up for it! I was very concerned about one bathroom for 4 people and the rooms being so close together, but none of my concerns became an issue. This home is a great value for the area, and we highly recommend it!

Lakeside Cottage w/ Private Dock
Spent a peaceful fall weekend with my family at this beautiful lakefront cottage. We spent most of our time out on the dock or on the screened-in porch. Fully stocked kitchen and comfortable rooms made us feel at home. Rebecca was a fantastic host - easy to communicate with, organized and very welcoming. Thanks for a five star stay!

Lakefront! Johnson Point Cottages - “Blueberry”
Just what we needed. Peace and quiet yet close to whatever you wanted to do. Excellent Restaurants, taverns, parks, sights were all there if you wanted. Dale and Sharon were exceptionally good hosts. They took us for a boat ride around Cobbetts Pond, allowed us use of kayaks and or canoe's which we took advantage of for some peaceful rides around the pond in the morning. Also did some fishing off the dock as well as sitting out for some morning coffee. if you want it Blueberry is close to it Thank you again Dale and Sharon for opening up your home to us.

Lakefront Cottage w/Private Beach
This house was even better than the pictures! It had absolutely everything you would need for a perfect staycation, and with a private beach where the sun sets right across the water, it truly is a little slice of heaven! There was so much to do with even more than expected, like the foosball coffee table which was a big hit or the arcade machine which had over 1000 games! A ton of fun surprises, we even got lost looking at all the artwork and decorations! The perfect day of tanning ending with a fire on the beach for dinner and smores, then to the inside to play vinyls and games the rest of the night. A dream house and the perfect place for great memories, I wish I never had to leave! And with great hosts that are very responsive you will never have a problem, even letting us add a last minute late checkout! Will definitely be back again soon felt very at home!

Ponder Point waterfront cottage at Cobbetts Pond
We had a terrific long weekend stay at Ana's lake house. The view of the lake is unbeatable, and it was fun to take the kayaks out on the water. We also enjoyed the variety of games and puzzles in the house, and short drive (<10m) to Canobie Lake Park. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and Ana was a communicative host. Would definitely recommend this Airbnb!

Charming Waterfront Cottage Near Cambridge/Boston
We had an amazing & relaxing few days here! Close to everything and being right on the water is so peaceful. The house was spotless, bathroom was clean & the shower was warm! We would absolutely stay here again.

The Loon Nest, Waterfront Lake House, Wood Hot Tub
The house was clean and well maintained. The view was gorgeous, too bad Mother Nature didn’t cooperate. It was cold and rainy. Used the fire pit nightly and it was nice. Linens were clean, towels were soft and fluffy and smelled freshly laundered. Kitchen was spotless and well stocked with pot/pans and dishes. Having a dishwasher was nice too. Two grocery stores (Hannaford and Market Basket) were close by and plenty of restaurants too. We came with the intention of doing nothing and just changing scenery for the weekend. This place was perfect.
