Sweeping ocean water views from this lovely & exceptionally well maintained townhouse in the heart of Bearskin Neck.
Park your car in the nearby deeded space and enjoy the delights of walking around all that Rockport offers. Public Beaches, Art Galleries, Gift Shops, Coffee Shops, Street Musicians, Lobster Rolls, and a multitude of Restaurants and Cafes are all just a stroll away.
Or, perhaps just relax and and dine on your private roof top deck located right outside your door & watch the ocean in all its glory from sunrise to moon rise.

"There’s something special about this little town. In all of my New England exploring, I’ve yet to encounter a place that captures the essence of coastal life quite like Rockport. After all, Rockport is the inspiration behind so many works of art and has been an artists’ haven for almost a century. It's no wonder Rockport is the physical embodiment of our ideas of life by the water. And with its next-door neighbor to the north, south, and east being the Atlantic Ocean, I can’t help but feel like Rockport would rather be a part of the sea anyway."
"At the tip of the Cape Ann peninsula, Rockport is in historic Essex County. It began as part of the nearby town of Gloucester, and together these areas got their start in the fishing business. Pine harvested from the vicinity was used for shipbuilding, and locally quarried granite (they didn’t call it “rock” port for nothing!) was shipped all up and down America’s east coast. It wasn’t until much later that tourism appeared on the local economy’s radar, but now that it has, there are plenty of dining, shopping, and cultural experiences for the sea-seeking explorer to enjoy."

Please know that before every stay we commit to:
On facade of middle building is a sign advertising the Artists Ball. In the 1920s and 1930s, the ball was an annual event organized by Rockport's artists and was a very “spirited” event. A 1926 news report described the dancing continuing until 5 a.m., after which breakfast was served. Precedent Set! 💥

Thank you Jonathan for everything. A perfect short stay with my family. I have made it a tradition to start the New Year by the water, for the past few years. This was the perfect place for keeping with the tradition.

Sally and I live 5 miles away in Gloucester, yet I have been drawn to Bearskin Neck and Tuna Wharf ever since my college pal Stephen Rhodes from North Carolina opened North Shore Kayak Outdoor Center at the tip of Tuna Wharf. Then the Shalin Liu Performance Center opened, dry Rockport finally got adult beverages, and fine dining like Feather & Wedge arrived, and the appeal of Rockport went even higher. Plus, Libby went to elementary school in Rockport and her first summer jobs were on Bearskin Neck and Tuna Wharf.

Rockport has never been known for its ease of parking, so love the fact that 5A Tuna Wharf comes its own nearby deeded parking spot. It's great that you park the car and enjoy the delights of walking around all that Rockport offers. Beaches, Art Galleries, Craft Stores, Coffee Shops, Lobster Rolls, Gift Shops, and a multitude of restaurants are just a stroll away.

It's a pretty special place. As noted in Condé Nast Traveler..."with more than 360 boats resting in its four harbors, Rockport is about as coastal as it can get. Rockport’s located in on the North Shore, a “culturally important” section of Massachusetts, known for its stellar food, beaches and historic landmarks."
So there you go.
🌟🌟🌟 FALL 2022 UPDATE: 🌟🌟🌟
It was a fabulous first rental season with TWT. Basically booked from Memorial Day 2021 to Thanksgiving 2021....and then much of December, January, February, March, April, and May. June & July were full, and one returning guest is there all of August, September and half of October. 😳Feedback and reviews have been quite nice, and I met some wonderful people and thoroughly enjoy being "The Host!"
You can look at the VRBO calendar link and pick your dates...and also see the nightly rate that people who do not have the inside scoop like you do would pay. 💥 (Plus VRBO Service Fees !)
