Circa 1850. Enjoy the Colonial charm of this home, which overlooks Marblehead Harbor on Boston's historic North Shore. Rooms are decorated with antiques and period wallpaper. A third-story sundeck offers excellent views. A generous continental breakfast of home-baked breads, muffins and fresh fruit is served each morning in the well-decorated dining room or on the open porch. The village of Marblehead provides many shops and restaurants. Boston and Logan airport are 30 minutes away.

Susan has tried to think of every possible need. The only drawback was that the bath was down the hall and shared. She make you feel like you were a guest in her home, not in a rented room.

I had stayed at The Harborside House B&B in May. Our hostess Susan was most hospitable and the accomodations exceeded my expectations. Breakfast was served in the bright warm dining room with fresh fruit and some fresh baked goods. This charming B&B is located in the heart of Marblehead within walking distance of everything. Wonderful, charming, and so very lovely. Thank you Susan. Sincerely, Colleen

Harborside Inn is restful, charming, with a beautiful view of the water. I wish we didn't have to leave.

I had to be in the North Shore area of Massachusetts for a church conference, so I thought that I would take a few extra days and visit Marblehead/Salem /Essex and other areas of my ancestry. Susan Livingston made my stay absolutely enjoyable. Her beautiful B & B had the right combination of professional amenities plus warm hospitality. The view of the bay from her house was gorgeous and the historic center of town was within walking distance. My time in Marblehead was delightful by her warm manner. I'll be back again.

"We enjoyed our stay at the Harborside House and would recommend your Bed and Breakfast to all travelers from Europe wishing to begin or end their New England trip from the Boston Logan-Airport. A stay of two nights seemed to be sufficient to discover the Marblehead area and drive up to Salem and Rockport. We felt welcome in your house and appreciate the sight-seeing information you shared with us."

We found this wonderful place through the internet. And lucky we were! Marblehead is such a beautiful spot. Ideally situated not too far away from Boston - so you can visit the "hub" in almost no time - but also far enough away from it to find peace and relaxation from the busy life of the city. The historical district with its picturesque colonial houses, Crocker Park with its breathtaking view over the harbor, the "downtown" area with restaurants and shops are all within walking distance of Harborside House. Susan Livingston, who owns and runs the place is an extraordinary hostess. Her kind hospitality made us feel at home immediately. And we will miss her great breakfasts. We will definetely call again!
