Our family group of 10 had a wonderful stay at the Harlow House. Plenty of space, very comfortable beds, very clean. The upstairs king BR shares a hall bathroom with one of the queen BRs. The other upstairs queen has it's own bathroom. The main level queen BR accesses the common 1/2 bath on that floor. The bunk rooms downstairs would have accommodated several more easily and has the 3rd full bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped - so easy to be able to fix your own breakfasts and we cooked in 2 nights out of 3. Easy walk to the historic Plymouth waterfront, bagels/delis/cafe's, seafood shacks. Good WIFI. The hot tub and back patio space was a bonus. FYI, Woods Seafood on the public wharf has great fried seafood to eat in/ take out, but also has an excellent seafood market. We grilled fresh swordfish one night and ordered pre-steamed/ pre-cracked lobsters for another night. Scott was very responsive to our questions. We would certainly come back.

A mix of modern and antique decor with fabulous updates and old fashioned design made this an interesting, convenient, and comfortable home for our family who were attending a wedding in the area. Close to attractions,restaurants, and convenience stores, many of which are within walking distance.

My son and my amazing daughter in law were married on Labor Day weekend 2023. We almost filled the house. Having grown up in New England I can say that this house is an excellent representation of a first period home. It is old. The floors are sloped. It is quirky, there are nooks and crannies, there is character. Rob T. was correct the bed on the main floor is soft. All other beds are medium bordering on firm. We had a room swap on the second night, one couple found the second floor bed too firm and the guest found the soft bed too soft. After the swap all were very satisfied with their sleep. We had a great time around the fire pit, in the hot tub and dinners on the deck. We enjoyed meandering on the path down to the mill stream and watching the people walk by. We walked to Plymouth center and enjoyed exploring the beach.

The house was perfect for our large gang. We could walk to so many different locales, historical/cultural/essential. We biked easily over to Long Beach and enjoyed the trails that take off from behind the house. We love to cook and felt very well supplied by what’s available in the kitchen! The home is comfortable, cool, clean and safe for our littlest children.
