About this house rental

Experience river life at its best along the banks of Mill River when you stay at this spectacular waterfront rental home with exquisite water views, a large back yard, and a private tidal dock for swimming and kayaking.

River Watch is a charming antique home sun-filled with natural light, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. From the front door, enter the main living level that includes a large living room, a contemporary kitchen, a dining room, and a den with a glass sliding door accessing the back deck. The three bedrooms, a sitting room, and a full bath make up the third floor.

Enjoy the river views sitting on the back deck and or lounging in the back yard on the outdoor furniture. There is a gas grill to barbecue your favorite dish. You are welcome to bring a non-motorized watercraft to launch from the beach or dock.

Situated in Gloucester's Riverdale neighborhood, the location is ideal to explore the villages of Annisquam and Lanesville. It's a short drive to Downtown Gloucester and Rockport and Good Harbor Beach. Travel to Boston, Salem, and Beverly is easy with the close proximity to Route 128 and the commuter rail for day trips.

There is one off-street parking space in the driveway.

Dogs allowed. No smoking. No events or parties.

Wonderful location for relaxation and peace! Great for kayaking and easy drive to beach.

The house is cozy and lovely. We enjoyed the view. We wish we had been left more kitchen towels and maybe towels approved for wiping off patio furniture. It was impossible to complete the requested clean up with one kitchen towel. It rained until the last morning. It would have been nice to have been able to wipe down the furniture and actually spend time outside.

Good location close to convenience store to pickup supplies. Very tight parking for one car only and located on a downhill curve so careful!! Second car had to park at convenience store. Only one bathroom had a shower, not helpful for 4 adults. Strange second floor bathroom setup shared by two bedrooms. Didn’t see any of this in the write up or photos. Good for two adults and kids. Not good for 4 adults and two cars.
