We loved the house and utlized the fire pit, the outdoor grill, kayaks and the big back lawn for lawn games we brought. The house is about three miles from Charlestown Town Beach which we frequented several days. I enjoyed biking in the morning on the roads and finding other places, like Moonstone Beach, which a small, beautiful beach a few miles from the home. Great ice cream place only a few miles away.

Great location, lovely, comfortable home with stunning water views from every window. Sunrises and sunsets were beautiful.
We don't normally use A/C in our summer beach rentals, but with the heat during our stay we really appreciated that in this house as well.
Kayaks and paddle boards were very handy for accessing the boat beach on the days we wanted to do that.
Would love to return!
PS: be prepared for mosquitoes at dusk and dawn. We found that starting the fire pit before dusk helped keep them at bay when we wanted to hang out on the lawn.

Amazing location right on Green Hill Pond with water views from basically anyplace you looked. Well equipped kitchen with a nice gas grill. Kayaks and paddleboards got a workout. Spacious first floor open plan great for spending time together. Sound bar with smart tv great for streaming music. We will definitely be back.

The location is awesome. There are water views all around the house. We enjoyed chatting and watching the wildlife while sitting on the deck. We saw an amazing orange moon over the water our second night while sitting around the campfire. The family room is also spacious and cozy. I did some light cleaning before my friends arrived and had to make the beds up. The surrounding area is pretty and there are several trails, restaurants and shops all within a 10-15 min drive.

This was our second year staying at this house for a long spring weekend and we love the house. The water views on both sides of the house are great! We brought our own kayaks, although there were some available, and did lots of paddling. Even got my 90 yr old aunt out in a kayak!!

The views from this house were amazing from every window. The sunrise over the water out one side, and the sunset over water out of the other. Every bedroom had a view, too. The recliners and couch in the living room were so comfy. We hated to leave. The only issues we had were that the WiFi didn't work (and therefore the TV, too) and the listing said to bring linens and towels, but when we arrived there were some there. No big deal, but would have saved us the trouble of brining them. The house was in a great location. Only wish we had been able to stay longer and take the kayaks out. We would definitely stay here again!

This was an excellent place to stay. It was so quiet. The views of the water on both sides of the property were amazing. We had access to kayaks & paddle boards which we used multiple times a day. The house has a great layout and tons of slider doors to let the breeze through the house.

We were very happy at Meg’s magical spot on the salt pond. It had everything we needed to relax and enjoy the beach. We kayaked, paddle boarded and rode our bikes to the beach each day. In the evenings we enjoyed a “sundowner” overlooking the pond and were very grateful to be there.

The house is very well set up to hang out. Plenty of big comfortable furniture with a nice view of the water. My teenagers appreciated the fast internet. The kayaks and paddle boards were fun. We went for a relaxing vacation and we had a relaxing vacation.

A great week!!
Wonderful location. Water views from all rooms. House filled with all the essentials. Great fire pit, well cared for yard and kayaks. Everything felt very clean! Perfect neighborhood. We had family staying right on the beach so beach parking was not an issue. Our kids were also old enough to paddle to boat beach. Stellar sunsets out on the pond. Great firework displays on the 3rd and 4th! Would stay here again!
