It's beautiful and very old New England - meaning mainly every time you take a step it makes a huge creak. I feel sorry for any teenager that might have grown up in this house because you had NO chance of sneaking out at night ;). The rooms are spacious and very nicely kept in an older style. The breakfast is appropriately titled the "feast" and has some excellent choices. Our favorite were the scones and apricot bread. The location is prime and just outside of the main harbor in Rockport and walking distance to everything in town (which is true of just about everything in Rockport anyway). They even had a fire going every night and we got the chance to read with a group by the fire which was really fun. The price was very good and the Tuck Inn is highly recommended!

Returned from our weekend visit and must commend Jim, Deb and Nick for their hospitality and…read moreaccommodations. They pride themselves on outstanding breakfasts and they aren't lying. Fruit, coffee cake or a pastry, a smoothie in a champagne type glass and then the main course - whether it is an egg Benedict Oscar or french toast made from Portuguese sweet bread. Excellent coffee too - which is not a small thing. We had room 7 - which is on the first floor and facing street. I wish there was a front porch - that would be excellent. It is large with the bedroom separate from the sitting room. Which was good to buffer my swearing and crying when the Yankees lost to the Astros in Game 6. My only deductions are really House based and not based on anything that occurred. The communal area is basically the 10 seat table in a room that requires negotiation to navigate around when full during breakfast. The small piano room and "office" room are also downstairs. The house is not conducive to communal activities - it is what it is. Room 7 is adjacent to breakfast room. In fact two auxiliary doors, including a door in the bathroom are immediate to breakfast. I'm not so concerned I could make out conversations during the other breakfast time (there are two sittings), I'm more concerned they could hear what was happening on my side of the door :). And yes, the house limits guests from not having one communal breakfast. There is an 8 AM and 9 AM sitting. The Inn is an easy walk to Bear Neck and all the shops. The area is lovely and so are the shopkeepers. I love to give my business to these people rather than some corporate chain. If there's a show at Gloucester Stage or Shalin Lui, I'd make a long weekend and stay here for sure.

The rooms are beautifully decorated, cozy, and affordable. Each morning guests are treated to a delectable gourmet breakfast that will start your day off right and leave you full till dinner time. Inn keepers Debbie and Nick (and Jim too of course) go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome and at home. Every July 4th, guests are treated to a festive outdoor BBQ picnic and afterwards we sit to enjoy the local holiday parade that goes right by the Inn's front door. This is truely our home away from home and I'd recommend it to anyone.

This inn is a photographer's paradise whose main features are the massive picture windows in the rooms combined with the inn's position overlooking an expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. On a clear morning in the back yard of the inn (house rule: stay off the rocks!) I have caught some of the most beautiful Atlantic sunrises of my photography career. Rooms are very well maintained with a very nice gilded age air. Inn keeper Randy is very helpful and thorough and explains things clearly and is very accommodating. Mind you this not a traditional bed and breakfast, it has no expansive common areas or on-site kitchen. Breakfast is provided off site via voucher at another very nice location with everything you may want or need. If you seek a peaceful out of the hustle location with opportunity for peaceful and serene Atlantic Ocean views Quarterdeck Inn by the Sea is practically unbeatable. Highly recommended for photographers.

My wife and I picked this B&B at random while surfing the internet and looking for a place to crash outside of Boston. We lucked out more than I could have hoped for. Mooring Stone takes it name from a large stone in the front yard, the kind they would sink to the bottom of the port with a tree through it so boats could tie up...hence, mooring stone. Anywho... The house is a cute little gingerbread number, clean rooms, quiet, and far enough from the strip of shops and eateries in Rockport that you feel like you're in another town (even though it's just a couple of blocks away). The breakfast part of the equation is served in a salvaged coast guard radio instrument house in the back yard in the middle of a beautiful garden. What really makes the Mooring Stone stand out for me is the proprietor, Joyce. My wife and I hit it off with her within about two minutes of meeting her. She's a veritable fount of information about the area and can point tourists like us in the right direction. Moreover, we had so much fun chatting with her that we ended up spending almost two hours with her at breakfast (followed by a trip with her over to her house on the water at the port to see her renovation project). Sounds crazy, but we had more fun hanging out with her and talking about old New England houses than walking around town. I'm hoping that for our next trip to Boston we eschew staying in town and head back to visit this inn.

We slept in the pebble beach room. What a view!!! Nice sunset, looking over the ocean. In the morning they prepare a nice breakfast with fresh fruit, greek yoghurt, cake, bread and eggs, and pancakes. Coffee is per machine which gives everybody a wide variety of flavors and let you decide how strong you'd like your coffee. Then when you're set and prepared for breakfast you can sit outside on the porch (I love porches!!!) or in the garden at the pond. Then again start enjoying. The sunrise, the nice environment and stroll a bit up and down the street afterwards... It's so lovely here. The room itself was nice and comfortable but still a star is missing as we had to shower in the bathtub. Normally that's not a big problem, but as we sere standing in the tub under the roof you have to lean sideways not to bump your head and there is no place to put the shower head. So have to keep it in your hands. So while your standing in the tub, holding the shower head, leaning sideways you also have to wash yourself. I think this is a big minus for everybody taller then 5 ft ;)

We decided on a last minute stay at The Emerson Inn for GF's birthday. We had originally planned on…read moregoing to Miami but because of the COVID situation in Florida, made the decision to stay in New England for a little beach getaway in Rockport instead. Because this was for a special occasion, we were initially going to BOUGIE it up at the W in South Beach so when we scrapped those plans, I still wanted to splurge on an ocean front property for our Rockport getaway and selected this place. Arrival: The place is right on the corner and easy to spot from the street. The road from the car to the entrance of the hotel is gravel and not amenable to rolling suitcases easily. Going up to the entrance requires ascending stairs. The concierge was there, after 10pm, friendly and welcoming which was a pleasant surprise for an Inn, which can have limited hours per my past experience. This property DOES NOT HAVE ELEVATORS but the staff offered numerous times to help us take our luggage to the 3rd floor but I felt that we could handle it. The room: We selected a "queen oceanside". The room is tiny. Like literally probably a few feet of space outside the bed in all directions. The bathroom is equally small, only one space to stand which happens to be in front of the sink, in front of the toilet, and to step into the shower. I've had larger rooms in Europe. The bed is very comfortable and the AC worked well. Everything was very clean. The towels were soft. The shower had top 3 best hotel water pressures I've ever experienced. You have to hold on or it'll blow you away. The water was hot. The toilet flush was weak. The tub initially drained very well but after showering for a few days, on our last day (thank god), it didn't drain at all? There was a mosquito inside our room the second we stepped into the room and I can say, having been home for about 24 hours, I am absolutely covered in mosquito bites from our stay here. Our first night, before opening any windows, GF got bitten on her face while we slept. It reminded me of the days I went to medical school in the Caribbean and slept in a mosquito net. Our second night, we opened the windows because the room was prohibitively steamy after taking a shower and the following day I noticed there are a bunch of holes in the screen. Classic. There is no fridge or microwave. The flatscreen TV on the wall worked well but no option for netflix or any streaming services. The view is absolutely stunning but there is no beach or water access. The window is only covered by a shade which doesn't do a great job of blocking out the light. It is very easy to hear doors slamming and other guests taking the stairs so if you are a light sleeper, I would recommend ear plugs. Services: There were ample towels provided. We were told at check in that there would be a card hanging on our door from which we could select to receive additional items. We requested new towels and hung the card outside the door. When we left in the afternoon, we still had not received requested towels so we asked at the desk. When we returned later that night, we still had not received the towels. Eventually, we received them about an hour or so after we returned. Amenities: There is a pool outside that overlooks the ocean. Sitting at the pool for a few hours was one of our best experiences during our trip. The pool is small and the seating limited. There is no room service. There was no maid service during the day. Location: A 40 minute walk to Bearskin Neck (the touristy shit you probably came to Rockport for) and essentially requires driving. There is really nothing within walking distance. There are extremely limited options for food delivery and literally no options for delivery after 10pm. If you're a night owl and you like to eat late, you will be hungry. Miscellaneous: There is a bar and restaurant in the lobby. You can sit on the veranda or inside at the bar. It is a gorgeous view. The drinks are expensive, similar to Manhattan prices ($17 for a drink). We ordered a few cocktails and ate at the restaurant on our last night. I ordered the risotto, and was happy to see vegetarian options on the menu, but the risotto was essentially tasteless and a waste of calories. On our last day, I woke up to three missed calls from the hotel and a voicemail stating, "nevermind, you don't have to switch your room after all". Huh? Why would I have to switch my room? I booked four nights. A staff member unfortunately WALKED IN on us while we were sleeping and was very apologetic. There is no "do not disturb" tag to leave outside the door. I will say the staff were all incredible and the best part of the stay. Ultimately, the 400-something per night we paid for this stay was outrageous and not at all worth what we received. Our W South Beach stay, ON THE BEACH with BEACH ACCESS, in a major US city, tons of amenities, was only slightly more per night, which is absolutely ridiculous.
