“This house was really quite perfect! It was convenient, comfortable, clean and cozy! I could have been happy just relaxing at the house admiring the view which was even more beautiful in person! The place was surprisingly well equipped. Communication with the property manager was easy and always responded quickly!! I looked through many properties before booking this one; I would book it again. We all loved it. You need to see it to believe it!”

“One of the best houses we’ve ever rented, surely a hidden gem. House was clean, nicely decorated and you can’t beat the porch overlooking the water. Location was central to everywhere we wanted to go. Would definitely stay here again.”

“We’ve stayed at many Cape Ann coastal property rentals and this was the best. Won’t stay anywhere else if we don’t have to. Property was as described in ad. Clean, well cared for, everything you need.”

“We had a great time staying at this beach retreat! The two bedrooms were perfect for our family of three. The house was a perfect location — very close to the beach, a beautiful park with a playground and great coffee shops! We stayed for 5 days and would gladly return for a longer stay.”

This vacation home in Beverly Mass was absolutely beautiful and everything we could have hoped for. Immaculately clean, comfortable, views were heavenly being right on Crane River. Fenced in yard for dogs was great to have and loved using the kayaks right out the gate of the fenced in yard as in your own personal boat slip of sorts. Felt private as it is a very pleasant and peaceful area even at the heighth of the season for MA coastal areas. Cute local beaches and restaurants. Not sure what more we could have asked for that wasn’t already provided or all around us. Cranes and Herons every morning walking around the banks of the river like it was unreal. Very generous and communicative hosts. This listing was not in my typical budget for getaways but well worth the price Looking forward to arranging another stay at this home again!!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Afternoon Delight. The home was clean, comfortable, and nicely located in a quiet neighborhood within a short walking distance to a small park. The yard is gated which was great for our dog. Having the kayaks available for use was wonderful. The deck overlooking the water was peaceful and relaxing and wonderful for dining outdoors and grilling. Kitchen was well stocked with basic needs (although one review stated olive oil, salt, pepper available and they are not). We were able to check in a tad early which was greatly appreciated as it was a super hot day. Host was responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend!

Enjoyed the place very much . Had the whole family at one point . Very relaxing and refreshing as we did get to swim in the river. We had 2 dogs with us and we taught them to swim. Great laughs! Great location to everything. Being from the south there were some things to get use to such as the stairs, bugs on the river and ac wall units. I would recommend the place to everyone. Loved it. Thank you for the kind review. So glad River Watch provided a relaxing spot for your family, sounds like fun teaching the dogs to swim! Appreciate your notes; we’ll pass them along. We hope to host you again!

Great location and property, the dock was fun and the home was very clean. The yard has a small fence around the perimeter which was perfect to let our dogs off leash and enjoy the yard with us. Location us walkable to a small convenience store and the neighborhood is quiet. Be wary dog owners as there was a skunk that lingered/potentially lives in the corner of the yard near the small shed. Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, we hope to see you again!

Enjoyable lakefront property. My friends and I, enjoyed the breathtaking views, sitting on the balcony, taking in the scenic area, Property, very well kept and organized. Welcoming atmosphere. Beautiful! Was located central, for my trip and journeys. The drive there, was scenic and stunning, from NY. Pleasure to do business with. Would definitely recommend and plan another visit.

This home was in a beautiful location and easy to get to lots of wonderful area attractions! Beautiful views from windows and deck. The kitchen and bathrooms were pristine. Stairway up from the kitchen to second floor is not for people with impaired mobility.

Beautiful view and a comfortable home. Great location as a base camp for Cape Ann adventures. Dogs loves swimming off the steps in the backyard. I'd recommend staying here for any family looking for a quiet getaway.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Riverwatch for my daughters wedding. The house had everything that we needed & it was fun to be right on the river.
