Our stay at this cottage was very nice. The place was well stocked, and everything worked relatively well. The location can't be beat for the scenic value. Located on a peninsula with the ability to see the water on both sides of the cottage. We were visiting for a wedding and the location was close to every venue we needed to visit.
The only downside was the size of the second bedroom. Two people could not be in the bedroom at the same time to dress. You had to take turns dressing. Access to the main floor bathroom was a bit awkward for anyone in the small upstairs bedroom. Having a Netflix account or some paid for TV service would help with figuring out what you can watch and what you can't. We would stay there again but I want the down stairs bedroom next time.
Thanks

The cottage met all my expectations as a place 'to extend summer a little longer'. Peaceful reading on the deck and walking along the shoreline. Beautiful scenery abounds in all directions. It was also convenient to exploring north, south, east and west. Close to a good food market and some nice places to eat.

This place was just all around perfect. Such a beautiful and serene location. The home was very comfortable and clean. Accurate description and pictures on website. But the website doesn’t fully portray the peaceful vibe. The host (Beth) was responsive and timely. We enjoyed our stay tremendously!

Amazing water front retreat!!
The cottage was perfect for our family of four! We have younger children that lives the bunk room! They also lived hunting for sea shells on the private beach. The wildlife is amazing! Short ride to everything, Newport, Bristol, and a little longer ride to Boston, where we saw a Redsox game!
The house is well appointed with all of the cooking and flatware you need. My brother and his wife came by for dinner and we grilled out and used the large deck with table and seating for eight!
We will definitely stay again. We loved the rustic cottage feel and watching the ragotta races in the Bay. Amazing!

This is a great property in Portsmouth with a view of the water on both sides of the house. There's a walkway to the beach, and we saw beautiful sunsets. The house is perfect for a family--two bunkbeds on the first level and a queen bed downstairs (Note there is a spiral staircase to go downstairs.) The house has all the pots and pans we needed to cook. We'd definitely return.

We enjoyed our stay here. It was very clean and had everything we needed for the most part. You can walk to the beach. It has a great porch and yard. We did wish the room upstairs with the bunk beds had a long mirror in it and hooks on the walls to hang clothes/towels. The bathroom upstairs also needed more hooks for hanging. The hand soap in upstairs bathroom was more like dish soap but it did the job. We had to make the bed for the top bunk after we found the sheets downstairs. It was renovated beautifully and we really did enjoy our stay there. We loved all the windows and the amazing water views.

This is our second time staying at this property and it was even better than our last visit. The house is tidy and comfortable, the deck is perfect for evening dining and sunset watching, and the yard is beautiful. We made the short walk down to the private beach daily for a swim in the ocean, and enjoyed taking walks around the neighborhood. Our only regret is that we only booked the house for one week, rather than two!

Fantastic place! Quiet neighborhood, at end of small peninsula in Mt. Hope Bay. Panoramic view of bay and bridge from livingroom. Great deck with gas grill, steps down to back yard, which backs onto wild area with short path to beach. Beach is fairly rocky, so need water shoes, but suitable for swimming or kayking. There is a kayak at the house. Friendly neighbors. Ashley, the host, is very responsive and helpful. Lower floor with master bedroom was kind of damp and chilly. The wall heater helped a lot, but also Ashley told us there's a dehumidifier available, if we had thought to ask her sooner. We would definitely stay here again!

A Perfect Beachside Getaway
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach house. We spent much of our time on the deck and in the backyard, as well as exploring the surrounding area. Inside, the open layout made for enjoyable family time. And the contact for the property was super helpful and communicative. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing beachside getaway!

Great view. Nice place!
My family of 5 travelled to the Newport area for a long weekend. This place was a perfect spot for our temporary home base. Nice little house. Very clean. Plenty of room for 6 people. Quiet location with phenomenal view of the bay all around. We really enjoyed staying there. Homeowner was a delight to deal with.
