Perfect little cottage for my husband and I and our two dogs. Lots of day trips to see the sites and walk the dogs. Denise is a great host and easy to communicate with. Loved our stay, would definitely recommend!

I had to come to the area for a family emergency. Denise was so incredibly accommodating to allow us a two night stay. It’s a beautiful spot that I would definitely return to for a vacation. Denise couldn’t have been more helpful

This cute rustic cottage is well-situated for seeing beautiful sunsets across the bay. The kitchen had everything we needed and the house is located only a short drive from town. You can kayak directly from the property at high tide but with the twice-daily tides, the area near the house is mud for a large part of the day.

The location of Moot Point couldn't be better! Great Neck is a quiet enclave and very special because of the abundance of nature right in the neighborhood! Also a great jumping point to Cape Ann and other surrounding destinations. The cottage was clean and beds comfy. The hostess was very responsive and you can just tell that she cared that your vacation was satisfying and that your needs were met.

Ipswich is a great place to stay especially at the home Moot Point which is located directly on the water. It also has access to a beach just a few minutes away. There are amazing views from the deck and lots of bird watching. The home is comfortable too.

Impressively decorated with clever colors and accents that come together and makes it a very special place. My husband enjoys cycling and plenty of areas to explore. Rockport is a fun place to go and check out The Boat House for a great meal! I bothered Denise about things and she and her husband were very helpful! It was a delightful location and experience. Simply charming.❤️

Lovely, bright and cheery cottage on the water with the absolute best sunsets. Wonderful to sit on the deck and enjoy the beautiful view or venture out to enjoy the multitudes of activities in the surrounding area. The owner Denise was communicative and informative and we would absolutely book this property again!

This is such a cute and quaint property in a beautiful location! It was so relaxing to enjoy morning coffee on the back deck while watching the wide variety of birds coming and going. No one wanted to leave, including the dogs :) I would definitely recommend this place over and over! Thank you Denise!

We loved staying in this delightfully cozy cottage in a beautiful location on the sound. We loved the personality of the home, which was comfortable and clean -- perfect for us to relax and enjoy our visit. We also enjoyed the gorgeous location -- what incredible views over the water and access to fantastic local beaches. It was also a perfect place for day trips to explore so many great sites along the coast. The host was responsive and we had everything we needed for our visit. We'd love to return!

Denise’s house is simply wonderful! It’s a cozy New England cottage with a lovely view of the marshlands and stairway access to the water for paddling at high tide. The deck outback is spacious and furnished with comportable furniture to enjoy beautiful sunsets. The interior is nicely decorated, and has great lighting. We did not cook our meals but easily found some great nearby restaurants. If you are looking for a quiet, charming cottage for 4 people in the Ipswich area you should check out Moot Point.

My husband, daughter, and I had a wonderful stay in this lovely home this summer. The views are absolutely spectacular, and our stay was so quiet and peaceful. Our hosts attended to all the details to make our stay extra special including thoughtful gifts upon our arrival. We have recommended a stay here to our closest family and friends. We recommend a stay in this beautiful home highly. Thanks for such wonderful hospitality.

This house is in a wonderful location right on the water. It is cozy but had everything we needed for our vacation in Ipswich. It was also very clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed the great views of the water and using the two kayaks provided by the owner. We enjoyed exploring Ipswich and other surrounding towns. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Denise for a wonderful rental.

The house was in a great location. We are cyclists and were able to do 4 great rides from the house. The house was very clean and cozy. The view was amazing. My husband’s favorite part was Kayaking. That is a great perk of the property. The owners are very nice and answer questions quickly. We would love to stay again!

Great place! Deer and ground hog visited us in the yard. Unfortunately the weather no so cooperative. Noseums also visited. Got some bug spray and smoker coils that took care of it! Cottage was great. Did see awesome sunset one night and lightening storm another! Would definitely stay again! Great place to unwind!

We just loved this cottage! We arrived in time for our first great sunset and woke up to low tide and accompanying wildlife show the next morning. My husband is an avid birder and he was in seventh heaven. A pair of deer spent several nights sleeping just over our wall on the lawn next door. They didn't seem bothered by the two dogs we had with us, and we enjoyed observing them as well. The beds were so comfy as was the overstuffed living room furniture we got to enjoy a it rained for the greater part of our stay. The kitchen was well stocked with pantry items, coffee, pots and pans, but bring any spices you may need beyond salt, pepper and garlic salt, LOL. Cape Ann has so much to offer. We look forward to staying in this cabin again next year!

Moot point is one of our favorite rentals in the area. Breathtaking views, amazing beaches, and access to kayaks for some really fun exploration. Check-in was seemless and the place was spotless and extremely comfortable. My only very small concern is that there was some poison ivy growing right under the storage area for the kayaks. It's possible that conservation regulations prevent removal, but it created a bit of a hazard for getting the boats in and out. If something could be done about this, it might prevent someone who isn't as familiar with the flora from having a bad experience. Or, if it cannot be removed, then maybe just hang a sign down by the boats so folks pay extra attention? Really though - this is an incredible place and our time there was extremely restorative!

Overall, clean, comfortable, and effortless in terms of checking in/out, etc. Clear instructions, a nice welcome folder with lots of suggestions for places to go. We didn't cook, but the kitchen had everything. The view of the estuary was great. Beds were clean and comfortable. Overhead fans were helpful to keep temp. comfortable. My only issue was with the bathroom. The shower had great hot water, but it was a tight stand-up space, and not a full tub. The toilet was small and low to the ground. May not be an issue for some, but could be for someone with knee or back issues. There was no support bar to use as a pull up if needed, so someone could get stuck. There was a helpful reminder sign about not clogging the septic system, but using a lighter toilet tissue than the one provided (such as Scott's 1000) would also help in that regard.
