Travel & Accommodations

Gloucester is ~35 miles from Boston and will take just under an hour to get there if driving with free flowing traffic. It is also accessible by MBTA Commuter Rail. We don't have room blocks set up yet but will share discount codes if/as soon as we are able. Even though this is mid-October, it is not quite the "off-season" yet, so don't be surprised to still find relatively competitive hotel pricing. There are plenty of quaint Inns and Bed & Breakfasts on Cape Ann if that is more your style, and we're happy to make recommendations should you seek advice. Additionally we'd highly recommend scouting out Airbnb and other house rentals via VRBO or Atlantic Vacation Homes should you be interested in that as an option instead of a hotel. The neighboring areas of Rockport, Manchester-By-The-Sea, and Essex are quite well known and can also be ideal for a weekend stay however they will all be 15-20 minute drives from Gloucester given the winding roads and speed limits.

Flight

Boston Logan Airport

Train

MBTA Commuter Rail

We recommend the Newburyport / Rockport line and selecting a train that can take you all the way to Gloucester (Zone 7). There are alternate stops along the way where you can get a taxi or Uber/Lyft or have someone pick you up at the station (e.g. Salem, Beverly, Manchester-By-The-Sea, Rockport). Tickets can be purchased on a mobile app (MBTA mTicket) or bought in advance at North Station in Boston.
