The Cottage on the Pond

Set along a peaceful lane just around the corner from Rockport’s bustling Main Street, Cottage on the Pond is a charming three-bedroom, two-bath retreat overlooking Mill Pond. With beautiful water views, a spacious screened porch, and a large backyard, this inviting cottage is the perfect place to enjoy everything Cape Ann has to offer. Start your morning with coffee on the screened porch, taking in gorgeous views of Mill Pond and the surrounding greenery. Spend a relaxing afternoon in the backyard overlooking the pond and adjacent Mill Brook Meadow and Park, or enjoy a scenic stroll through the park to Front Beach, just 0.2 miles away. Downtown Rockport, with its restaurants, shops, and galleries, is around the corner and only 0.3 miles from the cottage. Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming cottage with comfortable furnishings and all the conveniences of home. The inviting living room offers cozy seating, perfect for unwinding after a day exploring Cape Ann. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. The washer and dryer also is just off the kitchen. Cottage on the Pond offers three comfortable bedrooms, including a queen bedroom and a twin bedroom on the main level, with another queen bedroom downstairs. The twin bedroom features lovely views from its windows. Two full bathrooms, both with showers, are located on the main level. The cottage has a cozy, compact layout with a few steps and changes in floor level throughout. Guests with limited mobility should be aware that navigating certain areas, particularly the downstairs bedroom and second bathroom, may be challenging. A valuable convenience in downtown Rockport, the cottage includes parking directly in front of the property for one vehicle, with additional private parking at the end of the lane. Traveling with a larger group? Sound House, located right next to the cottage, makes a wonderful companion rental.
