Short walk to 1st beach

The house was perfect for our family of 4. Short walk to the beach. Short drive to Thames St. A few nice restaurants in walking distance and even more a short drive away! So much to do in Newport! Already planning our next trip back! Cynthia, the homeowner, was so kind and generous, and very communicative! Would definitely stay here again!

Great Place in a Great Town

We had a wonderful time while in Newport and the house was perfect for a family of five. The location is perfect for access to the beach and only a few minute drive into downtown Newport. We didn't find anything that wasn't provided in the house and wished we could have stayed for the whole week. Will be back for sure!

Great cottage near the beach

The house was perfect for a weekend exploring the Newport area. When the weather was nice, we grabbed beach chairs from the shed and drove over to Second beach. There was a Red tide at Easton Beach, otherwise we could’ve walked there. When the weather was not great, we were a 15 minute drive to downtown Newport. Plenty of good restaurants nearby if you don’t want to drive anywhere. Great place to stay for a couple or family!
