The History!
This was a great stay. We travel often and always use VRBO. We loved the quirky floors of the old building. Took me back to my childhood in my grampas farm house. Then when I learned the history of the property, I fell in love. Definitely recommend for families

Great place to stay
We had the best time here. House was excellent and the owner was amazing. She has a lot of stuff there you can do. Kayaks, fishing poles, metal det. And so much more. We had a blast looking for shells and seaglass when the tides were out. Great views as well!! Would definitely stay there again.

Great spot overlooking the ocean
Traveling with my mother and young adult niece, we choose this spot to have a quiet, safe spot to call home base after touring the city. This spot met the mark! All the essentials were provided, and it was super easy to call in a grocery delivery or food order when needed. Transport into town via Uber was convenient enough and still cost significantly less than a rental car for our stay would have been. And the view and access to water are added bonuses. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, safe spot that is convenient to surrounding areas. We will return!

Nice views, and town.
Had a great time in the area, home is ok, older, but its was perfect for the wife and I. Views were great, and close enough to all major attractions in Boston. Property manager was extremely prompt and check in was easy and friendly. Overall we had everything we needed. Beach supplies, beds and shower, and the price was very fair.

The house was as advertised and the view was gorgeous. Getting into Boston daily was a tad expensive-I’d recommend a rental car if you need to do that each day. But it was a nice place for a quiet getaway.

Great house and location
The house was exactly as described, if not better. Clean, well supplied with necessities. Great location on the bay with a great view. The bus that takes you to the train station stops within half a block from the house. We absolutely loved it. Host was very quick with responses. Great walking area and close to Nut Park, which was beautiful.

This property was perfect for what we needed. Close to the subway and trip into Boston. The sunset was stunning. Deborah worked very hard to ensure our stay was comfortable. This was the first rental that had food available as well as coffee, that was so nice. The history of the house was awesome and we enjoyed ourselves. Thanks for sharing your place with us.

Great Home!
We loved this property. Deborah was very attentive and there whenever we needed her. The house was well stocked and Deborah took the time offer special details, including homemade chocolate chip cookies and a note when we arrived. The water pressure in the shower was great, beds were comfy and the view outstanding. Location was perfect for a trip into Boston or local Quincy. The house was quiet and so enjoyable. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Deborah!

Great stay in Boston
We had a great stay in the historic Quincy house. The owner was very responsive and the house came furnished with more than the basics. The area is super safe and there is a great view of the skyline. It’s about 30-45 minutes to downtown depending on traffic. The home is quite old but in good shape. The only potential issue would be for an older person, as the floor slants pretty strongly in the main bedroom. We would stay again.

Awesome view of Boston
The house is nearly on the water. Only one street separates the house from the bay. Across the bay is an unobstructed view of downtown Boston. We took Ubers into town each day and never waited more than 10 minutes for a pick up. The drive into Boston was rather easy. The house had comfortable furniture and beds. The owner communicated well and even had a warm loaf of bread waiting for us. The bathroom was well-stocked with 2-ply toilet paper! If I make it back to Boston, I will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful location
This is a VERY eclectic home. The interior has a LOT of furniture. The floor has a substantial slope that affects the bed in the master bedroom (making sleeping a challenge) and also affects ease of mobility. Many previous reviews said that the house was very clean. Unfortunately, this was not the case for us. Dust on every piece of furniture/shelf. Dust bunnies, sand, dirt and even old bobby pins on the floor. Fronts of the dishwasher and stove were filthy. Kitchen tap was duct taped in two places. Bathroom sink tap had a build up scum around it. However, the location is wonderful! Easy drive to Boston to see the sights. Enjoyed being able to walk across to the ocean for a stroll.

Boston Vacay
We stayed here for our summer vacation. We were busy, so the house was a place to sleep. It was muggy because there’s no central air, just a free standing unit in the living room. It made for stuffy nights unless you kept the bedroom doors open. Sleeping with the windows open was difficult because traffic on the streets was nonstop & loud. The fridge had leftover food from prior tenants & there was a dirty washcloth in the shower, which we’ve never encountered at a VRBO before & made us wonder if their cleaning crew had done anything. The pics of the property & views listed were very misleading. You might have some of those views if you had access to the whole house. We were surprised that someone was living on the 2nd floor, so we weren’t prepared to see & hear signs of life upstairs. When people say the floor slopes, it REALLY slopes, like things were sliding down the floor & it was a fall risk & we were tripping if we didn’t pay attention. The bathroom didn’t lock & you had to control the light from the outside of the bathroom, which the kids enjoyed pranking each other, so there was that. I didn’t complain because it was what it was & aside from the fact they need a better cleaning crew, the rest was structural & bad location in general. Although, would be nice to update pics to reflect what you’re actually getting & advertise it’s not a house, it’s just a downstairs apartment. It served it’s function, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

A lot lopsided....
We will start with the fact that all the reviews were favorable, but we wondered if those folks ever stayed anywhere else that they could actually compare the property with? Yes, it was an old place, but there are a lot of things that you really don't know before getting there. One being that the floors are so lopsided and slanted that it is hard to navigate in some areas. The master bedroom runs completely downhill, and the walk-in closet makes you feel as if you are going down a long hill, you slide right into the corner. This is not a good place for anyone that may have trouble walking or a disability. The main description notes 3 bedrooms, be sure to read the fine print when you scroll down because one of the bedrooms is actually the living room. There are roads on either side of the home, so you hear traffic constantly. If you expect to hear waves like the description notes, you will be disappointed. The view is very pretty, but the photos on line are taken from an upstairs window, which you will not have. You have access to the downstairs only. There is no place outside to actually sit and enjoy the view. The massage chair in the living room does not work very well and is extremely loud. The bathroom could use a little updating as the shower stall does not look very appealing and the bath mat is stained. The towels were a bit worn and stained also. Most of the brochures that are there are out of date by a few years, so you may not get accurate information if you rely on them (we left some new ones). The mattresses are not very comfortable, the twin beds sink way down and the bed in the living room bangs and clunks every time you move. The description also notes 10 minutes from one place to another, but it's not as easy as it sounds, especially if relying on public transportation. We asked for directions to the ferry and was provided with a printout of a map page with no directions. We were a bit disappointed by that. The kitchen sink also had a horrible odor coming from it - we believe it was from the garbage disposal, which should probably be cleaned. If you want to stay away from it all and have your own car, this may be a good area. Just not what we expected based on the description. It wasn't the worst place we ever encountered, but probably wouldn't use it again. A little too far from everything when relying on public transportation, and the uneven floors throughout were challenging.
