Large first floor rooms with private bath, nicely furnished, with a hostess that loves to greet visitors and accommodate their needs. Lots of help to see and enjoy the sights. Within walking distance to Motif #1, Bearskin Neck, shops, restaurants, galleries, and the new Shamblin Liu performance center.

My husband and I decided on this B&B for our 5th wedding anniversary and do not regret it at all!! Rockport is a wonderful little coastal town with lots of history and quaint shops. The Mooring Stone was a great place to stay, loved the room, so nice and clean, loved the nearby shops you can walk to as well... More

We stayed at The Mooring Stone in early October 2011 for four nights. The room was a very comfy quaint room with a king sized bed and its own ensuite. The rooms for the bed and breakfast have their own separate entrance apart from the owner's house. Very private. Joyce was an excellent hostess and made us feel very welcome... More

The b and b was brilliant. Clean tidy and very close to the coast. Joyce was very nice and welcoming she told us about the area and showed us where to go and what to do and gave us maps. The beds were very comfy and slept like a log for the 2 nights we were there. There were 4... More

First trip was September, 2010, and we had Rockport and Mooringstone B & B on our minds for 2011. Joyce made us feel like family. She advised us on places to eat, sight seeing, and gave us a parka on a rainy day. The bed in our room couldn't be more comfortable. Bathroom is roomy, with separate, large vanity area.... More

This was our first time in Rockport. We found the Mooring Stone to be the perfect place to stay. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean and very private. Joyce the owner/proprietor was very gracious and gave us a lot of information about this gorgeous town! It was also a lot of fun to eat breakfast in the... More

I am not sure the reason behind the less than perfect experience that one of the guest had at the Mooring Stone B&B, but from personal experience let me say, that it should not inhibit you from the marvelous experience that awaits you at the Mooring Stone B&B. Joyce Cannon is a gem and to put it any other way... More

We stopped 1 night at the Mooring stone before returning to the UK via Boston airport. Joyce the proprietor was extremely friendly and we were like old friends throughout our stay. It was noticeable that any other residents of Rockport were of a similar mind set and eager to pass the time of day with you. The property is on... More

I wasn't sure what to expect when I made a reservation, but the price was reasonable and I'm a sucker for a homemade blueberry muffin! We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived- everything was easy and relaxed. Joyce, the owner, is a gem and the place is hospital-clean. Mooring stone is located on a quiet street with parking with a... More

Mooring Stone B&B is a magical place. I proposed to my fiancee here and it was just perfect. Rockport is a great little town full of surprises and Mooring Stone is perfectly located. Just a few short blocks from the ocean, great shops, ice cream, and restaurants. It's a great town to visit during the warm or cold months. If... More
