Andrews Point Ocean Home

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This soaring, historic home by the water is ideal for your next big vacation with the extended family or fun group getaway. Located at the northern end of Rockport, in the highly-desirable area known as 'The Avenues,' this spacious, two-story rental features several large gathering areas (including a furnished, back sunroom with an ocean view), two river rock fireplaces (one gas and one wood-burning), a well-equipped, full kitchen, and a large, grassy back yard with a slate patio at the water's edge.

What's nearby:
While visiting kayakers and strong swimmers can enter the water right in your own back yard, there are easier launching spots just down the street. Take a scenic hike along the historic Atlantic Path (accessible right in front of the home) that takes you south along the coast, over Sea Rocks boulders, and down to Cathedral Avenue. The adorable seaside town of Rockport is only three miles south where you'll find several restaurants, shops, galleries, museums, and the stunning Shalin Liu Performance Center. And for additional fun in and on the water, don't miss Back Beach, Front Beach, and Old Garden Beach, all within four miles of this home.

The location is spectacular! Home is a classic older home and it’s starting to show its age a bit, but not a reason to miss out on the view.

Sweet home.
This house is large but still cozy and inviting. There is definitely a family feel, as though you’re staying at your grandparents’ house. The house has a lot of personality and is just beautiful. The view from the first bedroom cannot be matched. Now, I’ve read some reviews that the home isn’t clean or that it needs updating. The house is old. When you enter for the first time it’s a little musty. Opening a few windows takes care of that right away. The furniture is old, but comfortable. The curtains have yellowed from Sun. The house has sat on the water for at least 100 years so some wood is warped, floors slant, doors stick. The wallpaper is peeling in spots here and there. Could it use an update? Probably. But it would lose its charm if that happened, and that would be a travesty. It is the quintessential New England home in a town out of a Hallmark movie. The home exudes sweetness. You can hear the echoes of many happy family times spent there, meals eaten, and memories made. It is like visiting an old friend.

The house is marginal and poorly maintained. A doorknob fell off a bathroom door and the chair our grandson was sitting in collapsed. Many of the doors do not fit and the advertised gas fireplace was not available. We placed a call for assistance on a couple of problems but the promised callback was never received. Wallpaper is peeling off the walls in several places. The water dispenser on the fridge is misaligned and squirts water at the user and all over the floor. Photos are misleading. The house is poorly maintained.

Oldie but goodie
House was large with comfortable seating. Dining room held all 10 of us comfortably. Sun room was beautiful with incredible views of sunrises. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything to cook with including a blender. 2 There were two refridgerators, one made ice. House is older, needs some attention to spackle and wallpaper. Nice and cozy warm even in March. Large back yard. Rock beach which was pretty cool for the kids to climb around on. Quiet neighborhood. Would revisit at another time.
