The property was clean and well stocked with cooking pots and pans. The beach location and access to the Block Island Ferry were also great. Good restaurants within a short drive. Sheila was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to our messages. Only negative was that we were informed that we needed to bring our own linens AFTER we made our reservation but it was not a huge problem as we were driving--would have been different if we were flying in from another part of the country. Property is best suited to two adults and children, not four adults although the four adults in our party did just fine.

Stayed 2 nights to celebrate my daughter's graduation from URI. The cottage was just what we needed to leave our things, change outfits & sleep each night.

The property was just as advertised. It was a quaint cottage with many original features including a farm sink and clawed-foot tub. The cottage was perfect for our small family and was ideally located near the state beach, which my kids loved. The amenities provided were good for a small cottage, but also included window A/C units which were a must for a week in August. The outside shower was great! This cottage is rustic and does not include a dishwasher. Also the TVs were small but did have cable TV.

This was great. Just the right size for 4 adults and 2 kids. Be aware you need to bring all your own sheets, blankets, and towels—I didn’t see this mentioned in the listing but luckily asked the host before we left our house so I avoided having to buy some there. Wifi internet worked great.

We stayed in this property for a family trip with our three children & had a great time.

The traditional cottage is a 5 minute walk to Scarborough Beach - quiet neighborhood, not much beach traffic, nice walking areas,

Everything here was just perfect. Well appointed cottage with charm and character, fantastic grounds and location, and totally enjoyed my stay.

Classic New England beach house that was a 2 minute walk to the beach! Sheila was an extremely helpful host and made everything super easy and well communicated. Would absolutely recommend for anyone looking for a beach getaway!

First of all, the owner was wonderful to deal with, very responsive. Location is great, just two blocks from the beach, easy to walk there. However, those were the only good things. The house was dirty (surface-level cleaning was fine in bathroom and kitchen), but there were cobwebs everywhere, and thick layers of dust on the fans, A/C, etc. And everything was falling apart- all of the doorknobs throughout the house, and all dresser/cabinet knobs were falling off. We couldn't shut the bathroom door because the knob would fall apart. Beds were uncomfortable. For the price, we expected a little bit better.

Great location for our family. Walking distance to Scarborough Beach, was convenient with our infant daughter. Convenience store/gas station at the other end of the street also in walking distance. Nice to have the tub, though the rest of us used the outdoor shower. Water pressure could have been better. Hot water heater was very loud. We did have one issue while we were there. We were told that there would be a propane grill for us to use prior to our arrival, and when we went to use it on my husband’s birthday, it did not light. Contacted property owner and were told we would be brought a charcoal grill, which was a resolution, however, we did have to assemble it. We weren’t overly thrilled about this while on vacation, however, the owner did provide a resolution. Only ended up grilling one night, and brought home the rest of the food we planned on grilling. Overall, reasonable price for the location, a few minor blips, but overall, our stay was okay.

It was very nice being only a few blocks from the beach. Cottage was a good size and conveniently located near many great restaurants and beaches!

We walked to the beach every day. Great neighborhood and beach.

Roomy house just steps to the beach! Perfect for a family!

You can see the ocean, very short walk to beach. Loved the big, airy, open dining room-living room area. nice private outdoor shower. I actually never used the indoor shower. place was clean, but comfortably broken in. I would stay here again, and hope to be able to.

Spent a week with the family. Easy walk to beach and nice clean property. Loved having outdoor shower and grill to cook at home. Close to all that Narragansett has to offer.

Stayed here with family and we love the beach, it was just two blocks away, so this was the idyllic place for us. There were 5 of us including a 3 yr old and the size of the cottage was perfect. The cottage was really clean and well cared for. We will come again I'm sure. Thank you Sheila!!

My friends and I were returning for URI homecoming weekend. This location was perfect for us! Would return & recommend!

Very good for a short stay. Close to Newport and local restaurants.
