During our stay I had a fall and fractured my leg. Our host Craig was extremely helpful and was able to help us transition from the second to the first floor apartment. Craig could not have been a better host. He was always responsive whenever I needed to contact him. He was thoughtful and kind. Looking forward to our stay here again next year.

Great property in a quiet and convenient location

We stayed here for a recent vacation to Newport and the Cape Cod area. The property was ideally located between those two areas making for great little day trip throughout our stay. The space itself was very clean and well maintained. Check in and check out instructions were easy and well described. Would definitely recommend this property to others.

3 night stay

We had a great stay in a beautiful, comfortable property. The description could have been a little more complete in that the stairs up to the second floor were very steep. Also, the laundry facilities are in the basement.

House of History

This property has been refurbished with a labour of love it's easy to see. A glance through the album of photos tells the same story. We really enjoyed our stay especially when we walked the streets and saw similar properties in this quiet but convenient location. A small issue with cutlery was quickly sorted although I would recommend an upgrade in the cutlery and pots and pans department. I would recommend that anyone with mobility issues should not book upstairs as the staircase is challenging as well as the one into the washing room. However that's easily solved by booking the ground floor apartment which I believe is identical in layout. The whole experience is one to remember. Well done Craig and Claudia.

Charming!

We loved the charm of this 1700's house. It had the "old" feel, but was bright, airy, comfortable, and well-stocked. The mattress in our bedroom was extremely easy on the back! Our walks at the nearby park and trails were wonderful, as was traipsing down main street to see the old homes. Some of the stately houses were apparently owned by sea captains long ago and even had widow walks at the top! The view from the sunny front windows looked out at the river and seabirds. This was truly a wonderfu experience!

Great experience, great location & a great place!

Our family of five stayed here for 7 days and absolutely loved it. A quiet, safe neighborhood on the second floor of a nice older house with lots of history. Old stairways are fascinating and the apartment itself has plenty of upgrades. Craig was awesome and if we had any questions or requests he was very timely and efficient. I highly recommend staying here and would do it again in a heartbeat!
