On historic Cape Ann, Gloucester is only one hour by train or car from Boston and is one of New England's best-kept summer vacation secrets. Made famous in the movie 'The Perfect Storm,' Gloucester has a rich maritime history and is the oldest working seaport and active artist colony in the United States. From early settlers to Hollywood filmmakers, the beauty of Cape Ann has drawn people from around the world. Gloucester's historic fishing port, Rockport's famous art galleries, the unique antique shops of Essex, and the old, New England charm of Manchester-by-the-Sea, make Cape Ann the perfect vacation destination. Enjoy scenic coastlines from land or by boat, experience breathtaking beaches, dine in elegant restaurants, explore fascinating museums, and see for yourself why we're the Whale Watch Capital of the World. Lanesville is one of several quaint fishing villages encircling Cape Ann. Conveniently located about 10 minutes from either downtown Gloucester or downtown Rockport.

wonderful vacation

Martina and Hans München, Bavaria, Germany
Review Submitted: May 12, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Thank you both for giving us the opportunity to have such a great time on the cove! In the morning we loved to have breakfast on the patio with an excellent ocean view. We used to live in that area 10 years ago; so we enjoyed the amazing sunsets after a busy day of sightseeing and diving in our memories. Every evening it seemed to us like coming home. It was the perfect place for relaxing and preparing for the Boston Marathon 2009. We look foreward to seeing you again!

Owner's Response: Hans and Martina,

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review--we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We do our best to provide a comfortable place where people can truly relax.

Don't stay away so long next time, and we'll see you again, On the Cove.

Hi Sandy & Stan,
We had the very best time at your place "again" this summer. The two weeks we stayed through the fourth of July was a vacation we'll never forget. Since Jim works for the airlines we have travelled to many different places and "On the Cove" will always be one of our favorites. It is very comfortable, cozy, and beautiful. The views are of the most beautiful in Gloucester. The sunsets we get to enjoy every night right from our doorstep are breathtaking. For anyone who is looking to stay "On the Cove" you will not be disappointed. In fact, once you stay you will most certainly return year after year. Everything and more is provided for you from lush bathrobes to everything you need to enjoy a wonderful lobster dinner. Even during a lobster feast I had invited my family to, Sandy came down and served shrimp to all of our guests. I do not witness that kind of hospitality and kindness often - it was a wonderful treat! This was our second vacation here and even though we plan to move back to Gloucester from Pennsylvania we still plan to reserve our place "On the Cove." Thank you for everything Stan & Sandy! Lourie and Jim Killian & family
Owner's Response: Thank you for the kind words. Nothing makes us happier than to have our guests truly enjoy themselves here "On the Cove". See you soon!

Review Submitted: October 24, 2007 Date of Stay: October 2007
Dear Stan and Sandy,
We came to your area to explore the Fishermen History after watching and reading Perfect Storm. Instead we found this Perfect Place- On The Cove!
It happened to rain and actually storm the two days that we were there. It was so lovely on the Cove and the sunset was to die for! And you are so right two days is not enough.
The apartment was amazing. The bed was too comfortable. And the bathroom was more than adequate with the nice huge shower. The view from all major rooms was breath-taking. The location so close to Rockport and Gloucester was great. The Lobster Pool was close enough for us to drive to and pick up a cooked lobster dinner to eat in our cozy apartment during the rain.
My husband jogged past the Grind in nearby Lainesville and returned home to read the three newspapers that you left on the doorstep. Later we had to walk to the Grind to have a relaxing rest sipping the delicious coffee and reading your papers.
Thank you! Thank you! We have been several places but yours is Special. And it is because with all the little extras you and Sandy have made it so.

The McKowns Pacifica, California
Review Submitted: June 25, 2006 Date of Stay: June 2006
We were the envy of the McKown & Holys Family clans here for our family
reunion! Our accommodations exceeded our expectations and were perfectly
located near the central hub of our reunion hosts.

The early mornings in the cove started the day on a positive note with many
bird songs, gentle waves and frequent visits by the white egret in the grassy
area.

Many activities filled our week including sea kayaking with Discovery
Adventures, whale watching with Capt. Bill & Son's and riding the train into
Boston. Plum Cove, Good Harbor Beach and hanging around the Cove also
allowed for some relaxation time. Halibut Point State Park has some wonderful trails for walking or jogging and we did both. We will definitely come back and stay "On
the Cove".
