Our stay was wonderful! The cottage couldn’t be any cuter. And a very quick walk to the beach. So many things to do in the surrounding areas. We had an amazing vacation!

The cottage and grounds were charming and welcoming within the pretty enclave of Tiverton Four Corners. In walking distance is a great beach favored by local families, and the roads surrounding the cottage are perfect for long bucolic walks or runs. Nearby is the village of Four Corners which boasts a fun, hip cafe, a small convenience store with ice cream stand, and a gourmet food shop. The cottage porch is a wonderful place to sit in the afternoon with a good book! Deb and Michael, the homeowners, are lovely and knowledgable.

If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful shore vacation, this is the place for you. Ten minute walk to a natural beach. 15 minute drive from several general stores and farm markets for most culinary needs. Lots of low traffic roads for excellent cycling. The cottage is comfortable, private, and perfect for enjoying the coastal breezes. Would definitely consider returning.

An old summer cottage with a view over the marsh and out to the bay, you approach this little gem on a cobbled New England farm lane. The cottage is set beneath a couple a large maple trees that provide shade. Deer and wild turkeys roam the property along with rabbits and chipmunks. Egrets, cormorants, osprey, gulls, and terns are ever present. Peaceful, quiet, and very private. Just minutes from Fogland Beach and Fogland Point where we walked every day. Close to shops and restaurants at trendy Tiverton 4 Corners. Deb and Michael are super friendly hosts. If you want luxury, go somehwere else. If you want privacy and beauty and nature, check it out.

We had a lovely summer vacation in this cozy cottage with amazing views to the Sakonnet River. We enjoyed the local Fog Cutter coffee in the morning, and cocktails in the evening, from the front porch. The cottage is in a great location, with nearby beach access, and a short drive to Tiverton Four Corners, local farm stands and cafés. And the best part of our stay was the hospitality of our wonderful hosts, who gave us lots of privacy but always checked in to see if we needed anything. Perfect! We hope to return.

This was our dream cottage tucked away on a private drive overlooking the seashore.....My daughter and I just whiled away the days either on the front porch with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee, collecting seashells at the ocean floor mixed with many an adventure in neighboring towns......rummaging through vintage shops, finding local history lore, attending bakery after bakery until we decided we found the perfect bite.
Tiverton is a bit of the English countryside with its stone walls and shingled sided houses lining the town with a heart warming friendliness made by local Rhode Islanders. The cottage itself was to die for...antique decor with whimsical touches, beautiful linens and above all great hospitality, Deborah and Michael couldn't have been more gracious!
Everyday was a peaceful adventure from ferry rides to Block Island, to an eclectic Mill town 15 minutes away, Fall River, MA, a food lovers oasis! Portuguese, French, Polish, English cuisine just to name a few! But no matter how busy our days were each night we delighted in the prospect of returning "home" to the quiet and still of the ocean and the comfort and coziness that would be ours.

This quaint cottage was exactly what I was looking for. So I write this review with mixed feelings knowing that others will visit, thus making it too popular! The kitchen was well-equipped and the BBQ was well used. Almy's Roost is ideally located, and along with the breathtaking vista and cooling breezes, made it the perfect spot. Slept soundly at night and began and ended each day on the quaint, rustic front porch. Deborah and Michael were great hosts and supplied plenty of information regarding where to go and what to see. I hope to return for an even longer stay.
