If you’re a travel nurse headed to southeastern Massachusetts, finding comfortable housing that works with your stipend can be tricky. Hotels eat through your allowance fast, and most apartment leases won’t budge on their 12-month minimum. On Cranberry Pond in Middleborough offers a middle path: fully furnished extended stay rentals with a 32-day minimum, all utilities included, designed specifically for traveling professionals.

What Makes On Cranberry Pond Different from Extended Stay Hotels
After a 12-hour shift, the last thing you need is a sterile hotel room next to a highway. On Cranberry Pond sits on a quiet, wooded property bordering cranberry bogs and ponds. Previous guests — many of them healthcare workers — consistently cite the peaceful environment, strong WiFi for charting and telehealth, and the quality of sleep as the main reasons they return.
What’s included with every unit:
- High-speed WiFi (reliable enough for video calls and charting)
- Smart TV and streaming capability
- All utilities — electric, heat, water, internet
- On-site parking (no fees)
- Private bathrooms in every unit
- Quiet, adult-only, non-smoking environment
- Nature trails directly from the property for running and decompressing
Several units include full private kitchens for those who meal-prep. Rooms without kitchens are available at lower rates for nurses who prefer eating out or keeping it simple with a mini-fridge and microwave.
Stipend-Friendly Pricing
Our 32-day minimum stay means you’re exempt from Massachusetts room occupancy tax — saving you 10%+ compared to hotels or short-term rentals. Rates are all-inclusive (no hidden utility charges), and after the initial 32 days, we prorate to a daily rate. If your assignment ends on day 45 or day 78, you pay only for the days you stayed.
We work directly with travel nurses, staffing agencies, and corporate housing coordinators. Contact us for current rates that fit within typical travel nurse housing stipends.
