Vibrant neighbourhood

Guests say this area is walkable with lots to explore, especially for dining out.
Winter fun is on the way, Downtown Plymouth is a great fall and winter destination!

Our location is walkable and super safe, and you'll be in the heart of it all.

We are less than a block from many beaches, restaurants, nightlife and historical tours.

Check out our walk-through video on You Tube. Type WhaleTailInt 2019 in the search for a virtual tour of the entire house.

Hop on the "T" and day trip to Boston, or head to Cape Cod for beaches galore and souvenir shopping.

The space
Check out our live walk-through of the house on You Tube. Just type WhaleTailInt 2019 into the search box to see a virtual tour of the entire house!

Central heat and AC and private mini splits in all bedrooms keeps the Whale Tail at just the right temperature.

The kitchen is a great place to cook and entertain. Fully stocked, you won't need a thing! The kitchen opens onto the deck and grilling is a must year-round. The gas grill is set up year round, and the retractable awning on the porch is great for spending some time in the shade (or if it rains!). The ample dining room seats eight around a beautiful cherry dining set for a more formal gathering, complete with giraffes.

You’ll love the plush carpeted bedrooms and the comfortable accommodations the Whale Tail offers. My place is great for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and big groups. We've thought of everything!

The Whale Tail is the perfect spot to experience 'America's Hometown' - right at your front door. With a wide variety of excellent local cuisine and shops just steps away, you will have plenty to do and see. Visit historical museums, Plymouth Rock shops and local attractions.

Plymouth beach is the biggest beach close-by (about 2 miles up RT 3A) and offers paid public parking and a beach side restaraunt - 'Sandys'. Enjoy all kinds of seafood, burgers, fries and the full bar while you watch the waves and enjoy the salty spray. Never a dull moment! This is what they mean when they say LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!

Three upstairs bedrooms accommodate eight comfortably, so bring your family and friends. With a queen bed in two of the cozy bedrooms and four convertible twins in the third (two 'convert' to king size with trundles), and a pull out queen couch on the ground floor if the bff's want to come too!

We have 1 private parking spot available right behind the house, and some limited on-street parking. There are 2 long-term pay-lots one block over (221 steps away!) & meters etc throughout downtown. Plenty of options for additional cars.

All that Plymouth has to offer is just steps from your door. Something is always happening for kids and adults - day and night - any season... but a quiet enough street for some serious chilling if that is what you are after.

This house is a great central location for day trips too. Boston is less than an hour drive, or "Take the 'T' in" from the local Plymouth train station. Cape Cod is a short hop down Rt. 3 - packed with beaches, bike trails and plenty more to see. For a more adventurous day / overnight trip, head an hour or two North to New Hampshire or Maine for some seriously beautiful outdoor fun.

At the end of the street, there is also a seasonal ferry that will take you right to the docks and beaches at Provincetown. A must see for anyone who hasn't been!

So much to do and discover, Americas Hometown awaits - the perfect place to relax and enjoy this season!

Guest access
Guests will have access to both first and second floors of our home, as well as the outdoor deck and backyard patio /parking area. Basically, the whole house is yours - minus the basement where there is a separate unit sometimes used by the owners.

Other things to note
Our downtown neighborhood is very safe. You can be at ease walking the area at night, making the nightlife that much more enjoyable and attractive!

Since we are in the heart of downtown Plymouth, our parking is limited. We have one private parking space behind the house, and there is on-street metered parking three doors down. There are two long term lots one street over (Brewster st. Lot and North Lot) that are only 221 steps away! Also, free long-term parking is available less than a mile from the house. Again, also a very safe area. Paid parking can be re-upped via an online app for your convenience. Parking is always free from 7pm to 9am and off season there is no fee to park. Just google parkplymouth for their website with lots of helpful parking info.

We have just finished a new small basement level unit that will occasionally be owner-only occupied. It is accessed by a separate entrance off the front of the house and is a completely separate space from the house.

Neighbourhood highlights

Our home is located directly in the heart of downtown Plymouth, where all the shops, restaurants, bars, museums, waterfront and attractions are. Our neighborhood is VERY safe, residential and on a quiet side street. Plymouth is a wonderful place to visit year round. The summer is a favorite time to visit. There are beaches less than a mile away, local ponds and lakes to visit, plus Cape Cod and the Islands just a ferry ride or short drive away! It's the best of all worlds for Summer Fun!
