Wonderful property and meets all our needs for a wonderful intergenerational trip near all the sights of Middletown and Newport! Our third time staying; a three-peat.

This is such a cozy, comfortable, well-appointed home that feels immediately relaxing, with the deck overlooking the large back yard, the nice furniture and art, the well-equipped kitchen, and more. We had a wonderful stay and will return when we visit our family in the future!

The property is absolutely wonderful -not only well furnished but beautifully set up with kitchen, laundry and towels etc. it is very clean. It’s close to Second and Third beaches and stores. Very quiet neighborhood. The weather was awful the entire time but we still enjoyed our vacation 😊

A clean and comfortable house in a great location. It was a short drive to many beaches and other site seeing activities. Quiet neighborhood and nice outdoor seating.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was close to everything we needed to be near and we had plenty of room to all be in one place but not fall all over one another. The fittings and fixtures (kitchen gear, bathroom hooks, laundry supplies) were well thought-out. Instructions and suggestions were complete and easy to understand. Overall, a great time!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Third Beach Road retreat. The house was clean and comfortable. It was also quiet and secluded. The house was outfitted with everything you would need to cook and enjoy the comforts of home. I would love to stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone interested.

Friends for almost 30 years, we gathered from North And South shores and Cornwall, England. Fabulous home, perfectly situated to so many attractions and Newport. Farm stand for pumpkins and pies? Check! Gorgeous beach views of a beautiful full moon? Check! Close proximity to Newport for sight, shopping and dining? Check!! Hope to be back again next year! Highly recommend!!!!!! The owners were also extremely welcoming and patient with our first time VRBO questions and lots of info at the home in a booklet which was a great resource.

First of all, this was the most difficult time I have had to get the check in code. After several e-mails, I had to contact VRBO for assistance around 48 hours prior to check in. I am a frequent traveler via VRBO, and this was the 1st time that I experienced this.
The property itself is lovely. There are a couple of steep steps from porch into living room that elderly people may find challenging. The kitchen is well stocked with bar glassware, however the cooking pans were limited. As we were only going for a long weekend, I had planned only to make breakfasts: blueberry pancakes & an omelet. Several of the cooking pans were coated & scratched. I had to go out and purchase a pan to cook. The plates were also marred with metal scratches from prolonged utensil use. If you are a family. or group it would be challenging to cook. I would recommend the owner invest in a set of quality stainless steel pans & pots, as well as a set of dishes for 8. Additionally, there were plenty of towels, and I appreciate that they were white, as well as the sheets. However, there were 3 towels that had stains on them. I looked for bleach, but there wasn't any. I would recommend bleaching the towels/bedding between rentals.
That being said, the house itself was comfortable, a short drive to the beach. It was nice to be out of the hustle & bustle of Newport, but close enough to enjoy that which one chooses.
We had a great time walking on 2nd beach, biking on Ocean Drive, and strolling on Cliff Walk.
Once these issues are addressed, I would recommend this property, and hope to return, as the location was enjoyable, and the rest of the house appeared clean. I especially enjoyed the artwork hanging throughout the house, and felt like I would like to sit and have a drink with the owner.

Very happy with property. Everything was clean and well stocked. Location was great just a short ride to beach and downtown for all the wedding activities. Would be a perfect place to stay for a summer vacation in Newport!
5.0
This property was very well stocked, clean and comfy with great spaces to hang out and visit. We stayed here for a wedding but it would also be a good place to stay if you want to enjoy the beaches and have easy access to the restaurants and sites in Newport. Highly recommend visiting Sweet berry Farm and Bird Sanctuary. Both very close by.

My family of 5 just spent a wonderful week at Bonnie’s place. First and foremost, Bonnie is an excellent host and clearly wants her guests to have a memorable vacation. She is lovely and very responsive. Check in and out were easy and straightforward. The house is in a great location, with some shops/restaurants 5 minutes to left, and several beaches 5 minutes to the right. While the street is not busy, the cars do drive by a little fast, as our neighbor explained, “in a hurry to get to the beach.” Beach parking is expensive, especially on the weekends, so on Sat./Sun. we dropped everyone and then ran or biked back, but during the week, we just paid the $20 for the day (you can leave and come back with the same pass). All of the stretches of Third and Second Beach were lovely, with Peabody being the least crowded and Second having the biggest waves. The house was clean and comfortable, with a nice deck and yard for spending time outside. Overall, we had a great time and weren’t ready to leave!

Most beautiful setting!
You're going to wish you could stay longer or never leave, this
lovely, tranquil home! The area is quiet and relaxing and just a short walk to the beach. The house is furnished so you and your family can enjoy gathering inside or on the deck to watch the sunset. The home is immaculate and has everything you need for a wonderful stay. We will be back, thank you Bonnie!

Great house, great location
We love this house. It’s always clean and everything is in working order. Most importantly, it’s very comfortable and is close to the beaches and Newport. But not so close that the crowds run you over.

Great Family Weekend
We had a wonderful long weekend at the house with our adult children and family dog. Bonnie, the property mgr was excellent. We loved the house and location, abutting the Bird Sanctuary and under a mile beautiful walk to beaches. The house was well stocked and very comfortable. We spent a lot of time on the deck. Would have been perfect if the house came with beach passes for the Middletown beaches especially 3rd Beach. Would rent again definitely!

Had such a great time at 3rd Beach Road. The house was so pretty and comfortable, and we were so close to both 2nd and 3rd beach. I especially loved the front sun porch, with the two beautiful jade plants! We will definitely like to return next year!

This was a fabulous vacation for us all, despite a visit from Hurricane Henri! The awning over the deck allowed us to safely gather outside after the storm had passed. With camping lanterns and good cheer, our family made several new memories to cherish of family vacation time! Bonnie was WONDERFUL, answering questions and checking on our safety and comfort. We agree we want to repeat annually (without storms, though)!

We had a great stay with our family. With small kids being close to Peabody/3rd beach was a must for us and this property is just under a mile away. An easy bike ride and longer stroll. The home was very clean and had everything you might need for a beach getaway. Great deck and yard. Easy process from start to finish. We hope to come again!

Great house and location
We spent five days on Third Beach Road and had a fantastic time. The house is very comfortable and extremely well appointed. We wanted for nothing. And the location is perfect. Close to the beaches, numerous walking trails and just a few minutes from Newport.
