Marblehead Summer House Accommodations

My Grandfather bought the house in the 1930's and the family would spend their summers here.  This is where I grew up and my parents lived for 50 years.  Each of the 5 units include a private full bath, some also include a kitchenette.  With the exception of the 3rd Floor Suite the baths do not have showers.  They have the original long claw-foot soaking tubs.  So, enjoy the bath!  (all soaking tubs have European faucets with a shower wand, so you can sit and shower if you like!)  Our rates are shown below the pictures.  We have a two night minimum.  Occasionally we will agree to a one night stay, but in that case we need to add an up-charge to help with the cost of the maid and laundry service.

If you're visiting New England for the history, it's not a modern vacation hotel you're looking for. An experience here should focus on tradition more than anything, so you can be transported back in time to when the original founders of Salem, Marblehead, Boston and Harvard University lived here. The rooms at the Marblehead Summer House offer just that.

Our seasonal accommodations come with high-speed Wi-Fi, cable, 32' flat screens and A/C. Each of the 5 units also include a private full bath, some also include a kitchenette. With the exception of the 3rd Floor Suite, the baths do not have showers. They have the original long claw-foot soaking tubs, and all soaking tubs have European faucets with a shower wand, so you can sit and shower if you like!

We offer a variety of options so there's a place for everyone. Our low, competitive rates can be found below next to the corresponding suites. But if you have any comments or questions, don't hesitate to ask - we strive to make our customers' experiences as comfortable and exciting as possible.

My grandfather bought the house in the 1930's and the family would spend their summers here. This is where I grew up and my parents lived for 50 years. But the house itself has been here since 1717 - a rarity in the historic district of Marblehead MA, the birthplace of the American Navy and The Yachting Capital of the World. So come check out a history like none other.
