The Nest ved Pigeon Cove: Moderne bondegård med alle hjemmets bekvemmeligheder!

A cozy retreat for making memories! Nestled in a sweet spot among beaches, Bearskin Neck, and Halibut Point, The Nest is your home base for exploring Cape Ann, Salem, Boston, and more…an oasis where friends and family (and your EV!) can relax and recharge.

The Nest has everything you need for a memorable getaway. Gather in the open floorplan, or send the kids to the playroom for a movie while you enjoy quiet time in the living room or around the fire pit on the deck.

Cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen—or boil lobsters!—then gather around the table for a family feast. Or retreat to one of the many private spots to work, curl up with a book, or take a nap.

Our peaceful neighborhood is perfect for stargazing (on a clear night, you can see the Milky Way!) and experiencing the natural habitat. Depending on the season, you might hear frogs singing, spot fireflies flitting about, watch deer or turkeys wander through the yard, or hear coyotes howling in the distance.

Notes about sleeping arrangements:

- Office (second floor): Twin bed. This room has doors that close but everyone has to walk through it to get to the bathroom.
* The house sleeps 6 comfortably in bedrooms, or 7 if you use the twin bed in the office.
* All rooms with beds have room-darkening shades.
* The beds and pillows are of varying firmness, so if you don't like one, try another!
* See the floorplan in the photos for more info.

Please note:
* We live near wilderness, including beaches, quarries, and conservation land. A bug in the house or wildlife in the yard is not unusual and is not indicative of the cleanliness of the house.
* We love our quiet little neighborhood and our lovely neighbors. Please respect their privacy and keep noise to a minimum between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. ABSOLUTELY NO PARTIES. We have a noise monitor on site to alert us of extremely high decibel levels.
* There is no smoking in the house or in front of the house, but you are welcome to smoke on the back deck.
* Please do not sit on or place hot items on the countertops.
* Do not flush wipes of any kind down the toilets.
* There are camera doorbells on the front and side doors, and a camera pointing at the driveway. They are recording at all times. These are for your security and ours.
* There is a Minut sensor in the living room that alerts us to extremely high decibel levels, to prevent disturbances to the neighborhood. It does not record sound.
