My husband and I came for a short stay and Edward was a great host. The cottage itself was well kept and impeccably clean. Edward was also very responsive and offered to help if we needed suggestions on things to do. Due to a family emergency, we had to cut short our stay and had to leave on a very short notice and Ed was very considerate and understanding. We are frequent guests to Newbury and Newburyport and I must say this was another memorable cottage and experience. I also had a chance to meet the neighbors and they were welcoming warm and friendly. We plan to come back to this cottage and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone wanting a great host and quaint cottage. Thank you Ed for the opportunity to stay at your cottage, Sharon

This cute cottage is Incredibly peaceful and quiet and in a wonderful location steps from the beach. It is clean and uncluttered with vaulted ceilings, many windows and a cozy fireplace. One thing that few people have mentioned…this cottage is on plum island and access to one of the world’s premiere birding beaches and salt marshes is phenomenal - bring your binoculars and expect to be wowed! We saw many many rare birds, including the piping plover - a highly protected indicator species - only 4000 or less left in the world!

The owner was very nice and apologetic about no washer (not working). We had to bring our own linen. The real issue with this place is the "generator" noise. There was a constant noise which made it difficult to sleep. Not sure what this was but came from inside/above bedroom area. Otherwise, the accommodations are very nice. I would not stay here if more tan two people as it is small.

Plumtucket is a very special place. The cottage is a little gem of perfection. The grounds are magical, especially at night when bunnies dart about the white shell pathways in the shadow of a magical tree.

A Gem of a Cottage set in a Magical Place

A Gem of a Cottage set in a Magical Place

How often can you say that the place you stayed in exceeded the owner's description or the ambiance portrayed in their photos? On arrival at the cottage we were met by a wild, yet blasé, bunny who kept munching on the emerald green grass that surrounds the cottage, his presence said, "Welcome, there is magic here." Imagine a one floor cottage that by all rights should feel small inside but instead feels expansive and airy with its: cathedral ceilings; two magnificent ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom; skylights and windows aplenty so that no matter the weather outside the interior is light-filled, airy and breezy. Edward's Placid Cottage offers every amenity imaginable and the kitchen was perfect for all of our meals...of course we treated ourselves here and there ( I highly recommend Bob's Lobster shack which has the best Lobster rolls I've ever eaten.) As a couple we love quiet and peaceful spaces, which was our experience for the whole week. A welcome surprise were the neighbors in the other cottages who were very friendly, and equally, respectful of letting us feel as if we were were the only cottage on the property. Once you "live" in a place you start to notice all the little details that the owner took great care in adding, I got a great kick out of the bathroom faucet, seriously!! as the water flowed from its open design like a waterfall! We knew we would I would fall in love with the natural beauty of Plum Island, but to feel that way about the cottage too was unexpectedly lovely. As a host Edward is extremely accessible, friendly, and responsive. We could not ask for a better experience than we had with him. We are truly hoping spend another week in Placid Cottage next summer. Cheers, India and Jim.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this cute cottage a block from the beach. Everything was as pictured. It rained for quite a few days during our stay. Most of our time was spent indoors. It would've been awesome to have had a smart tv to cast our favorite standing apps. Overall, it was great. Cute place to spend a week or so. We really enjoyed ourselves
