Summary: My family and I have been staying in Long Beach / Good Harbor for 30 years. This house is as advertised. Clean, neat, near Long Beach and the Ice cream store. The parking for multiple cars was a benefit for all family and guests. The back deck was great for family cook out and gathering. Back yard for the kids. The house itself has a great kitchen. The open space to be able to conjure together was great for our family. The four bedrooms slept all of us. The two full baths supported the needs. The kids downstairs and adults upstairs. Awesome! Then when we had an issue, the owners promptly responded and had issue resolved timely. The area is safe / walkable and friendly.

Summary: We enjoyed a six night stay at this location and had enough space to sleep seven adults with plenty of room for meetings and discussion. Amenities are very well thought out and thorough, with impressively sharp kitchen knives and a full complement of pots and pans. Fireplace was "temporarily out of service" for our stay and the stairs down to the lower level are missing a handrail which was difficult for the less spry member of our party. Location can't be beat--we walked to the beach every day and supermarkets and restaurants are easily reached by car. One of the top vacation rental stays we've experienced.

Summary: We had an awesome stay at this property. Amazing location close to beach and Surfside Subs. It was super nice having all the beach chairs and beach wagon. Would have been great if they had ac in the bedrooms but no complaints, we'd definitely book again.

Summary: We had a lovely week at Rockport house. It was a quick 2 min walk to Long Beach and a 5 min walk to good Harbor Beach. Also there is an ice cream and takeout pizza /sandwich shop on the same block which was perfect for quick and easy dinners. The house was clean and had a lovely deck for dinners /relaxing. We will be back for sure!
