This great waterfront Plum Island home is light, airy, and cozy - perfect for a family with children, reunion with friends, or romantic getaway. Unobstructed views of Plum Island Sound and the Merrimack River are spectacular any time of day. Open plan home with seaside charm and all modern conveniences, spacious private bedrooms.

Plum Island is a very special place. In addition to the quaint homes and cottages on the island, there is one of the best (and quietest) beaches in New England, over seven miles of pristine sandy beach and a large Wildlife Refuge and Bird Sanctuary, proximity to Newburyport, Ipswich, Essex, Rockport and other old New England towns, and some of the best sunsets you'll find. Opt for Plum Island over the crowds and traffic of Cape Cod and the Islands, you'll never go back!

Further details for this vacation house rental in Plum Island, Massachusetts

Wishing you a wonderful Plum Island vacation!: Thank you for taking an interest in my home on Plum Island. I hope the photos and descriptions here give you a good feel for the beauty of this location, the amenities available and the special vacation you could have here, but please call or email with any questions. This is a large contemporary home; light, clean and comfortable beach side atmosphere so you can unwind and get away from it all. Waterfront location affords breathtaking views throughout the day. Ocean breezes as you sleep. You won't want to leave.

Fully equipped kitchen, dining area, living room with cable TV, wireless Internet, bath/shower, three bedrooms (one queen, two full) plus queen sleep sofa in living room. The owner lives here most of the year; you will notice this in the attention to details and convenience. I am confident you will have a very special vacation here. Huge deck with dining table and gas grill. Hammock perfectly positioned to catch the breeze and watch those great Plum Island sunsets in the backyard. A smaller balcony off the 2nd floor is perfect for morning coffee or sunset margarita... The large back yard that fronts the water is divided in two parts: a flat grassy fenced in area and a natural beach grass-and-sandy area gently sloping to the tidal basin. The wooden path ends at the water. You can set up your beach chair or keep your kayak or canoe here in the backyard to pull in at your whim. Bring your fishing gear, Plum Island is famous for striper fishing.

The rental comes with an access pass to the Parker River Nature Refuge. Easy access to Newburyport shops and summer fairs, less than an hour from Boston. This is a non-smoking home.

FANtastic!!!!!!!!!!

Review Submitted: June 23, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I didn't want to leave. It was perfect for us on so many levels. We had a rainy week, which in another house could have been a drag but not with the view. Windows everywhere, birds, boats, cozy and wonderful attention to detail in the decor and spotlessly clean.

The pictures don't begin to do it justice! All the amenities (kitchen, grille, fire pit, private deck, fenced in small yard with garden) and your own beach make it ideal for families and couples.

Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms (the master bedroom is gorgeous with a queen-sized bed and great views). The 2nd bedroom also has great views and a full-size and twin bed. The 3rd bedroom is in the basement but it is decorated and cozy (just lacks the view). Good place to stick the kids!

The only difficulty we encountered was 1 bathroom on the main floor (so if you get up in the middle of the night you will have to go up or down stairs which was a bit challenging for my 79 year old dad).

Other than that- we'll be back next year for sure!!!!!!!! There are other Plum Island rentals (and we've rented houses at other locations) but this will be the first we return to!

Review Submitted: September 29, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This house is in a beautiful location, just a hop, a skip and a jump to the waters edge. It has a huge deck for sitting out and enjoying the afternoon and evening evening sun. However it only has one small bathroom, and because there were only three in our party, we managed. If the house had been full to capacity it would have been really difficult. There were also little things that I would not have expected given the price of the house, like a front door that didn't work properly. However all in all this was an enjoyable place to stay.
