Truly 5 stars! Accommodations pristine. Hosts Terry and Mike were gracious and made us feel like family! We hated to say goodbye! Location is perfectly situated for whatever you're hoping to do in Newport! The "extra" touches were so nice! They thought of everything! And our walnuts were perfectly placed on the delicious banana bread. We enjoyed every moment. Their cat is even sweet!

We just got back from a 2 nite stay at the Hawthorne House, and we had the best time. Terri, Mike and their daughter Cristina (who is visiting before she joins her husband in Japan) were just great. We will never stay in a hotel again! All the goodies were grea,t and we felt so at home there, and look forward to returning soon. The place was so clean, and every amenity was taken care of. I have told all our friends of this great experience, and wouldn't be surprised they will look to book in the future. Thanks again Terri and Mike, and hope your Clamn Bake was a success. Wish we were there. Barb & Carl

A REALLY FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE

Our 4 night 5 day stay at this lovely Newport location was really a 5 star experience for the following reasons: First * The owners are like family. From the first e-mail to the last good-bye, we were treated like a member of their family. Second** The location of the property is perfect. Walking distance to the ocean and close to all the wellknown Newport locations (mansions, cliff walk etc) Third***The apartment was cozy, extremely well maintained and bright. Fresh towels were delivered each day and there was an ample supply of necessities. Fourth****All local information was available in the apartment (churches, local sites to see, restaurant suggestions etc). Fifth***** This one will blow you away. Each day the apartment was stocked with fresh juice, fresh fruit, cereal, milk,water, tea, coffee and a special treat each night. One night is was cheese, crackers & grapes..another night was toasted walnuts and cinnamon cake and to top all of this off fresh banana bread was delivered to our door with a wonderful smile. If there was any negative I could find it would be that the walnuts weren't evenly distributed in the banana bread. YOU WILL LOVE THIS EXPERIENCE

We stayed here with a three old toddler and a 3 month old baby. Terri and Mike were so hospitable and kind and did everything they could to make our stay pleasant. They provided us with a cot for our baby, left us treats and wonderful cakes. It was comfortable and practical. The surroundings were peaceful and quiet. We were very close to the center of town, and could walk to it. We parked our car in front of the house, which made our stay easier. We had everything we needed and our stay was just perfect. I highly recommend it.

Stayed for 5 nights over spring break in April 2011 with my wife and our 14 year old daughter. All the other reviews about the cleanliness, unexpected and delicious snacks, great location, and the friendliness of the hosts are spot on so I won't elaborate on them. One nice detail I didn't see mentioned is that there are doors on both sides of the hallway between the living area and bedroom. This creates two private sleeping areas (the couch folds into a queen size bed). We enjoyed our stay very much as did our husky/shepard mix Ellisa. Book it quick-you will be glad you did.

We had such a delightful trip to Newport and Mike and Terri helped make it a wonderful memory. Hospitality at its best!! Staying here was a very good choice. Comfortable, clean, convenient and more than that, very homey and welcoming. Terri went above and beyond by baking us fresh poppy seed lemon bread to take with us when we left. We will most definitely recommend this place and look forward to a return trip. Thanks for everything Terri and Mike!

Stayed here for a long weekend to attend a graduation. The accomodations were just perfect - clean, well maintained and just as we expected. It was like our own little apartment with a great back patio. I still regret that we weren't able to take advantage of the grill. The hosts are extremely friendly and make you feel very welcome. The evening snacks waiting for us in our room were so great. We liked the quiet residential location. The walk to the ocean and to downtown was reasonable - although we like to walk. I hope I can make a trip back to Newport to stay here again.

My wife and I spent 2 nights, end of September 2010, at the Hawthorne House. What is written in the listing is completely accurate but Terri and Mike are delivering even more. Mike took 30 minutes to drive with us in town to show us where the main commodities are: grocery stores, drug stores, good restaurants, etc. Terri cooked us a cake and delivered afternoon snacks. We have traveled in many countries and we can say their level of service is the best we have seen for this type of facilities. The place is spacious, spotless clean and it is very well located, near the Cliff Walk, the Mansions and Thames street shopping. We are recommending this property without hesitation and we will certainly return should we travel this way again. A big Thanks to Terri and Mike ... and keep up the good work, your place is great.
