If you want to go to the beach this is the place for you. Walk right out the back door and cross the road to a pretty quiet beach. Short drive to the cute town of Newburyport (15ish minutes) and 25

Lovely Beach Stay!
The property was nice and very comfortable, the location was fantastic and the hosts were extremely accommodating and communicative. The owners who live upstairs were very nice - waving down from their balcony to let us know to tell them if we need anything. We had a great stay and wanted for nothing. Would stay again! The proximity to the beach and nature preserve is perfect.

Went back for the second year in a row. Love the cute, beachy apartment. Property manager and owners very nice and accommodating. Proximity to the beach is perfect, and nice to have a small private beach to enjoy. Plenty to do in the area, even while socially distancing! Hope to go back again next year!

Just right
We liked the configuration of 3 bedrooms and having 1.5 bathrooms, perfect for us as grandparents with two grandchildren. We loved being able to walk right down to the beach at any time. Low tide was especially interesting. Short drive to other beach and Parker Reserve was wonderful.

Lovely home
The house is perfect. Very clean, stocked with everything you will need, and plenty of space for your own belongings. It is in a great location - just steps away from the beach. Also a short walk to other beach access points, which are also great to check out. Sean is a wondering host - very responsive to any needs or questions.

Great place to stay - clean, relaxing, nice location
PRO's : * communication from property mgmt. - perfect instructions on parking, accessing door lock, etc. emailed a few times during our stay to make sure everything was good and if we had any questions. * the house was very clean & organized * access to the beach right out the back door and instant access to the road on/off the island * neighbors and all near properties were nice and also very quiet - barely any noise aside from the occasional car passing by * comfortable furniture/beds, plenty of room in kitchen and large refrigerator CONS : none We looked at some options for staying in this area and this was the best value we found. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Great location
We enjoyed a long weekend at the end of September. There were 3 of us having a girls weekend. There was plenty of space, very clean, comfortable mattresses, everything you need in the kitchen. The unit has been fully updated. The area is quiet and we rode bikes all over. We’d get an Uber to town to go out for dinner and shop. We had a chilly weekend, but we still walked over to the beach anyway. We had a really nice time.

Will book again
The house at plum island is very clean and so cute. Very well maintained. We had some issues with the door code not working and right after I sent an email my phone rang and management was calling to help us with our issue. Very responsive and easy to get a hold of if an issue which really impressed me. We are already planning on booking for next year :)

Great property for family. Can't beat the closeness to beach access
Everything was as advertised. The owners are very nice and responsive. The unit worked really well with our toddler. It was safe for her and a public playground and the path to the beach are just steps from the back door. (Just be aware that the full bath has a large nice shower but no bathtub.) The kitchen suited all of our needs, we made two dinners in the house. And the mattresses were very comfortable, always an added bonus when traveling.

Delightful week!
This rental on Plum Island was the perfect spot for a week vacation with family. Situated on the tip of Plum Island, it was just a short walk to the beach for play or to view beautiful sunsets. The owners were keen to make sure their home felt like our own. Everything was perfect and so clean. It’s hard to know which property to choose when booking online, and we have been burned before by inaccurate descriptions. You can absolutely rest assured that you will be completely satisfied and enjoy your stay at this rental property!

Perfect family vaca
We loved staying here!!! Sean was so professional, responsive, genuine, and accommodating. The place was perfect space and location for my husband, 2.5 yo daughter and myself. We also entertained other families throughout the week, and had my parents stay over one night while we did a date night in Newburyport. Love there are 2 walking beaches nearby, large outdoor space for grilling/ hanging and playground steps away. The cleanliness and beautiful beachy decor in rental was just icing on cake for our stay. Thank you Sean and family!!! Look forward to working with you again and being back on Plum!

Exceptionally clean property, wonderful stay!
We truly enjoyed our stay at this rental. Sean was very responsive answering some questions we had prior to arrival, and the recommendations he provided for the area were great! I was amazed with how clean this property was, and had such nice high quality mattresses and linens which made our stay that much more enjoyable. We also discovered the Parker River Refuge beaches which were truly stunning and only about a 10 min ride away. Our kids loved the playground directly behind the property (as pictured) and the path to the lookout also behind the property which became our morning ritual. The apartment was well equipped with everything needed and grill was also very clean so made it easy for cooking in. Being so close to the ocean there were cool breezes every night so rarely needed to use the AC units. Thank you for a great stay!
