"Enjoyed staying in quiet area far enough from town with grilled dinners, nightly fires at the picnic table up on the hill out back overlooking scenic rolling hills and stone walls. Kitchen was very well appointed for simple meals, everything was super clean and comfortable, and of course the outdoor shower was the perfect way to end our beach days. Hosts Marti and Ed were super friendly and knowledgeable about the island. Short walk to Ellen’s at the airport for breakfast. Hope to get back next...

"This is one of the nicer home rentals that we've stayed in, and we rented a lot around the world. No matter what room you're in, you are surrounded by beautiful craftsmanship and design. Of course, it was cleaner than clean and stocked with plenty of linens for kitchen and bedroom. The half bath downstairs was convenient with the full bath and clawfoot tub upstairs. Everything is modern and yet, full of character. The location was perfect for us being 30 minutes from Providence and 30 minutes...

"We were in town for a wedding and the rental was perfect for us. Quiet, clean, and comfortable. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance and everyone was friendly and helpful. We didn’t cook in the kitchen but it seemed well equipped for fixing a simple meal. Very nice to have off-street parking. I wish we’d had more time to explore the town, it was charming. Cara is friendly, helpful and easygoing. We were very pleased with our short stay."
