    What a beautiful property! Everything was very clean and we loved the location. We were just in town briefly for a wedding, but all wished we could stay longer. Gordon was very communicative and kind. Would highly recommend.

    This is a quiet, calm, affordable, beautiful place near everything. Gordon was very communicative and available. We loved the boardgames, the floorplan, and the view of the calm marsh nearby. Highly recommend for families and others!

Take it easy at this unique waterfront getaway. Located less than 3 miles from beautiful beaches, popular parks and local hot spots, the "Buoys cottage" is the perfect New England escape. Head down to Stage Fort Park for a waterside picnic or enjoy riverfront dining right here at home! This 3-bedroom, 1-bath vacation rental sits on the tidal marsh of the Annisquam River, providing stunning scenery and a private riverfront backyard.
Quiet neighborhood located a stone throw away fro Cape Ann Marina, thge Causeyway restaurant and movie theatre, Stage Fort Park is a short walk away
