Serene center
Enjoyed our stay here. Excellent location in the midst of shopping, dining, arts. Quirkiness of the place adds to its charm. Recommended!

Perfect for a weekend
Stayed with our two kids. Loved the quaint space, had everything we need for a short stay. The location can’t be beat, a quick walk to the ocean, lots of shops nearby. Only downside is parking is not directly near property, but we didn’t have issues finding parking nearby.

Location, location, location!
This nautical inspired apartment had tons of character and couldn’t have had a better location. A coffee shop was just steps outside the front door along with all the charming shops and restaurants of Rockport’s Bearskin Neck. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location in Rockport
We were happy with our rental in Rockport, right on the cool street with little shops and 5 min walk from Front beach. Great ice cream place steps from the front door. The place itself was clean and comfortable. Nice porch table and chairs to hang out at by the door. The one thing i would warn other parents of, is that there is no door or curtain to close the bunk beds off from the rest of the space, and I hadn't grasped that from the listing. It can also be challenging to find non metered parking, especially Sat or Sunday. Best we did was bout 10 min walk from the place. That's the trade-off, though to be right in that street.

Charming Storybook Apartment!
I am local to Cape Ann but needed a last minute place to put up some visitors. My friend stayed with his 6 and 8 year old daughters. They LOVED the place. It is adorable. Very well decorated and charming. The host has done a great job making a smaller space comfortable, and it is right in the heart of charming Bearskin neck. My friend described it as like staying in a Storybook! I visited the property as well and it was well appointed with modern appliances (smart TV, newer kitchen appliances). Matt the host was very responsive to any queries and made the whole process easy. Really the only downside is not having a parking spot, but Matt made the parking situation very clear in the listing. And being in the heart of so many fun shops, restaurants and beaches really makes parking much less of an issue. I would highly recommend the Orca!

Great location. Walk to everything in Rockport. Fresh lobster 3 minutes walk away. Really fun nautical decor. This apartment is a little more masculine, darker wood than the other two in this building. We loved the look. Parking is blocks away but you don't need your car unless you're checking out another town. Full kitchen with new appliances. Photos are accurate.

West comes to East
Of course a great location! Good thing we didn't have a car though, absolutely no parking. Big bed for two and bunk bed in the other smallish room. Nice and comfortable furniture, good TV and nice split A/C unit that worked well on heat too. Kitchen was nice and stocked well. Bathroom was divided between shower toilet and sink vanity, great for two people sharing.

Fabulous spot
We had a wonderful last-minute getaway for one night here. We had two adults and a young child and had plenty of space. The property was well-appointed with many thoughtful touches. Being right in the heart of bearskin neck was the best. We got ice cream and strolled back around the corner to our small front patio to eat comfortably. I didn't think many shops would be open in mid May, but there were plenty of places to shop and eat. Plus, street parking before April 15 is free. The Orca was a wonderful place to stay and we are already recommending it to friends!
