Great location, comfortable and spacious home which has everything one might need to have a wonderful vacation. This is our second year staying here and we are already looking forward to our visit next year! Annlee is a most accommodating host who is very helpful and easy to communicate with.

If you are looking to live like a local, this is the property for you. This charming beach cottage is ideally located on a wooded lot with a wide porch to enjoy coffee or a cocktail and watch for deer and bunnies. Yet, the cute downtown and easily accessible town beach are 10 minutes down the road. An exceptionally well-equipped kitchen, comfy beds (and bedroom a/c) and lots of linens made it easy to relax. Annlee was prompt and detailed with communication. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

My family of four had a wonderful week at Annlee's cottage in Jamestown. The house is nicely set up and stocked with all the essentials and more. As other reviewers have mentioned, the wrap-around porch is a delightful spot for breakfast and afternoon/evening wine and crackers and watching the deer and birds. Annlee was a great host and provided excellent recommendations and communications while we were there. The few issues we had were addressed quickly and thoroughly. She is a very responsive host and clearly takes pride in providing a great stay to her guests. The house is on the quieter side of the island but only a short drive into town and not far at all to Newport. We enjoyed renting SUP/paddleboards from Jamestown Outdoors, tours of the Newport mansions and a wonderful boat tour on the Temma antique boat! The sunsets from Marsh Meadows were absolutely amazing. Don't miss the delicious sandwiches from Slice of Heaven bakery.

Stayed at the cottage with one other couple and there was plenty of room for the four of us. Annlee made sure everything was just right for our arrival, allowing us early check in and having the kitchen stocked with basic staples. The kitchen was well equipped with a Jennair range and really quiet dishwasher. The showers were great, the beds very comfortable. It was the perfect place to come ‘home’ to after being out all day.

Excellent

As a frequent user of home rentals I can say this was one of the most comfortable, well appointed and clean homes in which I have stayed. It was beautiful and such a peaceful location. The porch surrounding the home is absolutely lovely! More than the home, the rental experience was the most pleasant I’ve had. Annlee made it so easy to check in, she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. She was super responsive and available to answer any questions we had. The house is stocked with everything you need - which is very generous - you do not find that with most rentals. Annlee was a joy to work with, anticipating our needs and working to make it a wonderful stay. I thoroughly enjoyed communicating with her. I highly recommend this home and hope to return.

House is quaint but wasn’t for my family. We were hoping for a cute cottage and a bedroom with an ocean view. This place does not have any ocean views. Porch is cute but we encountered multiple wasp nests so sitting outside was not ideal. Kitchen is well equipt with staples available for use. Cottage shares a driveway with neighbor who had an old bus and a boat in the yard which was the view from the living room. We felt the living room furniture was uncomfortable and the fireplace was not available for use. Also, despite that it’s set back from the road and somewhat private, the curtain situation didn’t really work well. With window unit ACs, the window to floor curtains didn’t work very well if you want the AC on (which we did because it was humid and August) so it was leave the curtains open or tie them up. And the master curtain didn’t close completely. Annlee seemed easy to deal with when we first communicated and then changed her tune once I voiced my concerns. It was the first time I had to deal with this and it put a damper on our vacation. Owner felt that making comments like “Clearly, it is impossible to make some people happy, but unfortunately, I accepted your booking which has caused me lost income - and also caused you disappointment. As you can see from my positive reviews, any other family would have been delighted and appreciative of my home, when it looks as if you were expecting the luxury of The Four Seasons!” which made dealing with this even harder. We were by no means expecting the Four Seasons. Different people/families enjoy certain aspects of one home over another, and we were hoping for (any) ocean view and a usable outside porch as the listing stated. Owner did try to make a “gesture of good will” which was “designed to entice” us to stay but obviously very much took it personal when we didn’t want to. I’ve stayed at many VRBO homes without any problems. Just feel potential renters should know what to expect.
