We had such a great week at Napper’s Delight. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, the back deck was wonderful for dinner and morning coffee, the outdoor shower was amazing and our dog loved being able to hang out in the backyard. The cottage was spacious and comfortable and the beach pass was greatly appreciated. We can’t wait to return next summer!
This cottage was perfect, it easily accommodated our immediate family, as well as some extended family and friends who would visit for a day or two throughout the week. The house was very close to the beach, clean and comfortable. The area is very nice, quiet with some shops within walking distance. The owners were phenomenal; we will definitely look here again next year! Thank you!
This was our first experience in the Charlestown area. We normally vacation in Newport. It was exactly what we were looking for. The home was perfect for a family of 4. It was small, but cozy and clean. We enjoyed the privacy of the backyard and loved that our dogs were welcomed and able to roam in the enclosed backyard. The neighborhood was extremely quiet and peaceful. Perfect for our family time. The beach was 1 mile and we loved that we had a parking pass so we had flexibility to come and go as we chose. We also spent days kayaking in the breachway. We'd definitely rent this property again.
House, back deck, outdoor shower are the best! Communication with owners is easy, house is super stocked for great meals on the comfortable deck. The beach- right down the road and the parking lot pass included is greatly appreciated!
This little place was adorable with plenty of space, cute decks and two bathrooms with additional outside shower. The yard was cute, private and fenced in. Very close to Charlestown beach with pass and also to many anemities. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back to rent again!!
My husband and I had a beautiful week-long stay here with our dog. The house is well appointed and comfortable, the backyard is private. It's a mile to the beach and the household supplies a parking pass so we were never without a spot. It was supposed to be very busy but we were always lucky. The nearby Beach Charleston beach is lovely, with a short walk to the water and polite crowds. Nearby we found a bike trail parks and eateries. The host shared helpful recommendations. We would definitely like to return. The only thing we were missing were beach chairs and umbrella which we should have known to bring, as I didn't ask!
Cottage has everything you need for vaca and beach is a mile away with permit parking! Many public beaches and state beaches around the area. Next time we will try the kayaking near the beach. Super!
Nice cottage that sleeps 7 comfortably with a great big deck. The fenced in yard allowed us to take our dog and only a mile from a great beach. Lots of eateries close by.
The place was all that we needed for a beach getaway with family. My favorite was the outdoor shower and the VIP beach pass. We brought bikes thinking we would load them up and ride the mile to the beach but it was not necessary with the parking lot. We were able to unload practically on the beach! The only negative was the a/c unit. It did cool off at night so temp went down but during the day it was 81 degrees even with a/c going. That made it difficult to freshen up for dinner if we went out. Cute, adorable space though and outdoor shower was the best feature!
We had a wonderful week in Rhode Island. The house was perfect for us. Easy access to the beach and we loved the backyard and outdoor shower! The owners were also great!
We had a great week at nappers delight. It was a perfect cottage for our family. It offered a great deck and outdoor shower to clean up from the beach. The beach was wonderful and easy to access with parking. The town offered everything that you need to have the full beach experience!
The cottage was larger than we expected (pictures do not do justice). There was plenty of room for our family of 8 to spread out. Large fenced in and private backyard with a two lovely decks. There are town and state beaches very close to the cottage. We were so excited to find this was a dog-friendly, walking and biking area - very glad we brought our bikes. Local businesses were very accommodating. We truly enjoyed our week and we will return.
Quaint, uniquely designed beach cottage that is located in the heart of Charlestown. Very close to beaches. There are three bedrooms, however plenty of room to sleep 8 people. The upper bedroom has an AC unit but I wish the rest of the house had AC because we stayed during a heat wave. Backyard has enough space to play yard games.
Overall I would definitely recommend and stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Kris Turgeon
We are a beach family! We have always spent our summers by the shore and were thrilled when we had the opportunity to own a piece of paradise. This house reminds us of the places we stayed as children and we wanted to share it with our own family. We love to travel, but always feel drawn back to the shores of Rhode Island.
Why they chose this property
Being close to Charlestown Beach we are able to get to the ocean for the wonderful sun and views of Block Island. We also have the opportunity to kayak in the pond without traveling very far. We purchased this cottage because of its quiet location, but close access to so may wonderful thing. The house is less than a mile to the beach, under 7 minutes to Blue Shutters Beach, and 5 minutes to Ninigret Park. A wonderful local coffee shop and ice cream stand are around the corner.
