You can’t go wrong staying on Jamestown and this cottage is a perfect home base. The kitchen was well appointed and the back deck made relaxing easy. We will definitely be back!
This home was perfect for our family getaway. The house had everything we needed and Paul was very responsive and helpful. The house is located in an adorable, laid back town-we felt right at home! The location is also perfect for excursions to Newport, local state parks, and other small coastal towns.
This house is in a great area. It was very walkable to everything I needed. The description mentioned a fully fenced yard for pets but it is only fenced in on 3 sides so I was very glad I had my long lines with me. Overall it was a great stay and the host was very responsive.
Property was perfect for our stay. It was super clean and exactly as described. We did notice that the stairs to the second floor are a little steep - we didn’t have any trouble with them, but our older dog was a little hesitant at first. We’ll definitely be back when we need a place to stay in town!
This property works well for us as far as location, restaurants/ cafes, local grocery and local parks to take our dog especially the lighthouse. Kitchen was well stocked, if I decided to cook. The only thing I would have liked is to have the back entirelly enclosed, so I could let my dog off leash
