We completely enjoyed our six week stay at the Mariner. It was beautifully updated with an incredibly well equipped kitchen. The hosts were great to work with and were accommodating and responsive. We are looking forward to returning next year.!

Our family and dogs spent a relaxing few days celebrating Thanksgiving at The Mariner. Rachel was so kind to let us check in early to begin all the preparations. The house is beautiful, comfortable and extremely clean. The spacious kitchen was well equipped with everything needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner with plenty of room to relax in the two living rooms afterwards. Our dogs loved romping around the lush, fenced in yard and sprawling out in the screened in porch. It would be great to spend time in the outdoor space during the warm weather. We took many walks around the pretty neighborhood and along the ocean. The consensus was that The Mariner was the best home we have spent our Thanksgiving get away tradition at. We’re looking forward to doing it again in 2026!

The Mariner is a lovely home. The kitchen is very well appointed and the rest of the house is very comfortable. This is our second time staying there and we've already got plans for another visit.

I truly enjoyed my stay. The space was well-maintained, and thoughtfully prepared. (and i loved their patio and enjoyed a peaceful cup of tea even morning 🍵) Rachel was incredibly responsive and made sure everything went smoothly, which I really appreciated. The neighborhood was quiet, and the whole experience felt very comfortable. I would happily stay again on my next visit!

This charming and historic home was a comfortable and peaceful oasis near the water. Clean, updated, and well equipped! Plenty of space to relax. I stayed with a couple of friends, and we would definitely come back with our families. Rachel was responsive and kind when communicating! As described, the detailed descriptions and instructions were helpful. A short drive from Cape Ann, Rockport, Salem, etc. A lovely downtown area as well. Highly recommend!

Rachel was an excellent host, and the property was in a great location—conveniently close to Salem, MA, and all the local attractions. I highly recommend this stay to anyone visiting the area.
