Went to Boston, Cape Anne, and the "other" cape (Cod) over Thanksgiving week. Were originally going to stay one night at Babson Court but loved it so much we stayed two. We didn't want to leave but had a Thanksgiving dinner with friends and relatives at the "other" cape, so we had to move on. Great location on the waterfront, only a short walk to downtown and the fishing docks, etc. Paul the proprieter was most gracious, nice, funny and had all kinds of stories about the history of the Inn (built in the 1700's I believe).
The house is filled with antiques, eclectic art and it seems every piece has a great story behind it. Also, the Inn can be divided up in different ways to accomodate different sizes of families. There's even a secret passageway or two!
I can't say enough good things about the Inn at Babson Court. I discovered it on TripAdvisor and will definitely be back next time I'm passing through Gloucester. Maybe by then I'll be able to pronounce the muffin bunny's name correctly!

I booked the Cut Stevens room for a weekend getaway, and enjoyed it
immensely. I got to the inn in the evening, just as the sun was
setting, and even though it wasn't over the sea in front of the inn, it
made for a beautiful scene.

The room was very comfortable, tastefully
furnished with antiques, and with quite a lot of amenities like a
coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave oven, etc. As the inn is located
right off the main road that goes along the sea, there was some traffic
noise throughout the night, but it was very minor. Comfortable beds,
plenty of covers, very very nice.

When you go, watch out for the Muffin Bunny -- the ghost of a 1700's descendant of a pet rabbit that came over from England. I think.. I'm sure that if you ask Paul, one of the owners, he'll gladly tell you the story.
