River out back.
Ocean around the corner.

Welcome to The Egret’s Nest, newly renovated in 2026 and set between the river and the ocean: calm South River water on one side, a quiet neighborhood at your back door, a short walk to the beach via private beach access.

The marsh faces west, putting sunset center stage. Watch the sun drop over the South River salt marsh as egrets, herons, and other marsh birds work the water’s edge — then wake to the same quiet, open view with no rear neighbors.

On breezy summer afternoons, open the sunroom to the marsh air. When thunderheads roll across the wetlands, the room becomes storm theater: front-row seats from the dry side of the glass. After dark, settle in for a cozy movie night in the sunroom.

Two full baths. Ductless mini-split heat pumps with AC in every room keep the home comfortable in every season, and utilities are included. Curbside street parking — room for 5 or 6 cars! No smoking on the property; non-smokers preferred.

Five-minute stroll to Rexhame Beach via private beach access — marsh out back, ocean around the corner.

Guest Reviews

The guestbook starts here.

The Egret's Nest was the perfect spot for our family of five's summer vacation in August. The home has been updated beautifully, and we found thoughtful touches throughout. The views of the marsh were spectacular and the sunsets breathtaking!

We loved that linens, beach chairs, and washer/dryer were included, which allowed us to pack light. A short walk through the quaint neighborhood brought us to the uncrowded beach. Not having to worry about beach parking was great! It was easy to get to Humarock for longer bike rides on quiet streets. We found lots of great restaurants within a small radius as well as supermarkets, a pharmacy, etc. nearby. If you care to explore, especially in nature, there is a lot to do in Marshfield and surrounding coastal towns.

James was an extremely responsive host when we had questions and a few small issues, which were addressed right away. He was so friendly and very helpful regarding local suggestions.

I highly recommend staying at this wonderful property which is hosted by lovely folks!

The local’s guide

Things to Do in Marshfield, MA

Marshfield, Massachusetts sits on the South Shore between Boston and the Cape — a working waterfront town with ocean beaches, marsh-lined rivers, and a food scene that punches above its weight. This is our local’s guide: the restaurants we actually eat at, the coffee and ice cream stops worth a detour, where to hear live music on the water, which beaches to hit, plus rainy-day plans and day trips. Every drive time below is an approximate estimate from 171 Meadowview and can vary with traffic.

Fishing in & Around Marshfield, MA

Surfcast the Atlantic, work the tide through the marsh rivers, or put a kayak on a local pond. Dawn, dusk, and moving water are the common thread.

Before you fishMassachusetts’ 2026 striped-bass keeper rule is one fish, 28 inches to less than 31 inches. An inline circle hook is required when fishing with whole or cut natural bait, and anglers ages 16–59 need the $10 Massachusetts recreational saltwater fishing permit. Stop at FSH Bait & Tackle in Green Harbor for bait and current local intel.

Rexhame Beach

~2 min drive

Surfcasting · striped bass, occasional bluefish · best at dawn, dusk, and a moving tide

Two fisheries in one: cast the Atlantic side or walk through the dunes to the South River side. Look for striped bass around Rexhame and near Beadles Rocks; clams, eels, and white or alewife-colored soft plastics and plugs are dependable choices.

Green Harbor Jetties & Harbor Mouth

~12 min drive

Structure fishing · stripers, bluefish, occasional mackerel · best at first light and on an outgoing tide

Marshfield’s best structure-oriented fishing: cast along the channel edges where moving harbor water meets the ocean and the rock jetties funnel bait. Be conservative on the rocks whenever there is swell.

Humarock & the Mouth of the North River

~10 min drive

Beach and river mouth · striped bass · best on moving water around sunrise or sunset

Beach, river current, sandbars, channels, and enormous bait movement make this especially productive for migrating fall stripers. Favor the accessible beach or a boat; currents at the river mouth are strong and unpredictable.

Kayak or small boat · public launch at 1361 Union St · striped bass

Furnace Pond

Our home on the South Shore

JME Living is the hospitality brand behind The Egret’s Nest — a waterfront vacation home in Rexhame Beach, Marshfield, Massachusetts, fully renovated in 2026.
