“Serenity” truly deserves its name! The house is beautiful, quiet, comfortable, peaceful - much more a “home” than any other place I have rented. The hosts are two of the kindest people I have ever met, incredibly warm and caring. I loved every minute there and cannot say enough good things!

Helpful but hands off
5/5 stars
I'm not exactly sure whom I'm reviewing here, but the property was beautiful and perfectly located, the neighborhood was wonderful, with the sea just a short walk/bike ride away, and the owners were delightful. The property manager answered our questions very promptly via email, but we did not need to consult during our stay. Thanks to everyone!

We are two retired couples traveling through the New England states together. It is wonderful to be able to travel and then retire to a lovely home in the evening. We spend our day exploring and our evenings playing cards and enjoying each other’s company.

Awesome!
5/5 stars
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at 5 Ryan Rd! Everything was super clean and lovely! I was kind of sad to have all the construction work going on outside which somewhat hampered our ability to enjoy the patio and fish pond, but that certainly is not your fault! We were beyond blessed to be able to be there! Thank you for all your efforts and hard work! Blessings for your kind care, Neil and Elaine Sandford

Wonderful Vacation
5/5 stars
We (myself , my wife , my daughter & her partner) spent a week (July 6th to 13th) at the house on Ryan Avenue , Gloucester . The house is very comfortable with every appliance to make our stay comfortable . Liann was very helpful and attentive which made our stay very enjoyable . We would certainly return if we were in the Gloucester area again .

5/5 stars
"Serenity" indeed! This rental property, entitled "Serenity," is truly a home away from home and a quiet respite for travelers on the go. We were always happy to return at the end of the day knowing that we had a peaceful and cozy place in which to unwind and get some rest.The owners, Wendell and Beryl, are very welcoming, and they are committed to ensuring that their renters are comfortable--and we were! The living room furniture and beds are excellent. The full kitchen is well-equipped and easy to work in. The dining area overlooking the back yard is just perfect and has a wall-mounted television, great for catching the morning news and weather.The lighting, which is mostly recessed and with dimmers, is impressive and creates a softly-lit atmosphere for evenings. It took me some time to figure out all the switches! There are also ceiling fans throughout the unit which operate very efficiently and a bathroom fan that can be set on a timer. I was to later learn that Wendell is an electrician. He certainly applied his expertise in creating this wonderful property for his renters to enjoy.We highly recommend this property to others. It is honestly one of the best that we have ever rented over the years!
