Beach, Pond, Country? Enjoy all three.

Love the beach, but also like privacy? Dogwood House is ideally situated for those who want to be close to the beach, but also enjoy the sound of the breeze rustling through the trees, a grassy yard and gardens, and room to relax. Use the central air conditioning, or open the windows to feel the breeze and hear the sound of the ocean in the distance, The property is in close proximity to Ninigret Park, Burlingame and Watchaug Pond. Lovingly landscaped 2 acre yard with flowers for cutting during your stay.
We live on the property with our two dogs, but your space is entirely yours with separate entrance.
Monthly or long term summer rental preferred.

About Dogwood House:
Since "we bought a park" in 2017, we have renovated most of the property, and decorated Dogwood house to enhance our favorite things about living in beautiful Charlestown, RI.

The original owners built the home with vaulted ceilings in the kitchen, living and dining area. Our guests often describe the main living are as being in a treehouse due to the large windows and privacy.

The centerpiece of the living room is the soaring stone fireplace. There is a Frame TV, sofa, upholstered rocking arm chair, arm chair with ottoman, and two additional arm chairs.

The stunning dining table has seating for ten, and has breadboard attachments to add 4 more (we've not needed to use them and we'd need to provide mismatched chairs if requested!)

The kitchen has granite counters and newer stainless steel appliances, as well as a wine refrigerator. The refrigerator has ice and water in the door. There is a hallway off the kitchen with a pantry, and the guest bathroom with stand-up shower.

Up the spiral stairs you will find a tv room in the loft with a comfy sofa, board games, desk, and ethernet port. This is a great area to get away, but still be able to hear when called for dinner.

The main living area opens to a large deck with dining table with six chairs, and two conversation areas (4 swivel armchairs with cushions and a sectional sofa), Weber grill, and hot tub.

Down the stairs and under the deck, you will find a container box with lawn games, beyond a fire pit with Adirondack chairs to toast marshmallows, or take the chill off on a cooler night.

The first floor has been completely renovated and furnished. The bedrooms are on the first floor, along with laundry. The laundry closet is where you will find cleaning supplies, and extras.

Two of the bedrooms are en suite, one with a tiled shower, and the other with a bathtub with tile surround. The third bedroom has a small collection of books if you forget to bring one.

All bedrooms have ceiling fan, TV with Amazon Firestick (preloaded with Prime, Hulu, Netflix), blackout shades, closet, dresser, bedside tables, a set of extra sheets, pillows, and blankets. We take pride in providing beautiful bedding, and use mattress encapsulation for dust, waterproof mattress pads, and fresh bed pillows and linens. (Along with varying types of pillows for preference) We also provide towels for bath and beach.

The neighborhood is quiet, and abuts Ninigret Park. There you can access Ninigret Pond, visit the Frosty Drew Observatory for amazing night sky viewing (or just step outside!), visit Thomas Dambo's Trolls, play dic golf, ride the bike crit, walk the path, play basketball, or enjoy weekly foodtruck nights with live music. Check Charlestown Parks and Recreation for schedule.

We are a 5-10 minute drive to Charlestown Beach or Blue Shutters Beach. If you'd like to hike, check out Burligame Park, Carter Preserve or any of the many trail systems in Southern RI.

For dining out, there are many options in Charlestown, Westerly and South Kingstown. Mystic is also a fantastic destination for food or visiting the Seaport or Aquarium. Newport and Jamestown are also an easy drive.

Come to Dogwood, we'll be happy to share our suggestions if you like.
