Lakefront Cottage Complete with Kayaks!
Our stay at this lakeside retreat was perfect! The house was exactly as described, with stunning views that exceeded expectations. Mornings with coffee and evenings with cocktails on the back porch became our favorite ritual. The picturesque fire pit and thoughtful touch of Hershey bars for s’mores were delightful, though we didn’t get to use them this time. Our host was incredibly responsive, quickly resolving a hot tub issue, and their winery recommendations were spot-on! Quick tip: If arriving after dark, keep exterior lights off initially to avoid lakeside gnats. We noticed a few stink bugs on day one (nature’s welcome!), but they completely disappeared afterward. Neither affected our enjoyment of this beautiful property at all. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Jamestown Family-friendly Cozy Cottage in town
Great house for our girls weekend. Jamestown is so cute and we decided to eat out for the weekend but the kitchen was stocked if we’re to stay in. SteveO is a great host and great communicator. The hot tub was perfect. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Lakeside cottage with beautiful views up the lake!
We always love going to this cottage. It’s our favorite. It’s actually one of our favorite places. To go a few times a year winter summer. We just spent memorial weekend there. A little doggies loved it. Home away from home so cozy. Bobby the host is wonderful. My daughter boyfriend came up and they absolutely loved it and my son came from Texas to spend one night. It was his first time there he loved it. We already planning on going back. Fantastic getaway. If you need to distress and want calmness. This is the place to come to. And the town of Mystic has great restaurants Like I said it’s our favorite place to come to and I’ve been to quite a few…. Just got home today and I’m seeing if I can book some sometime in October to go back we love it.

Romantic Beach Cottage Getaway - Non Smokers only
I loved this space so much. I felt at home and comfortable as a solo traveler and only wished for more time to enjoy and explore the area! ❤️

♥CozyGetaway-Narragansett-15min to Newport-HotTub♛
We had a wonderful stay at Leann’s! The home was absolutely lovely—clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated. The amenities were just what I needed for a relaxing getaway. Leann was a great host, and we truly can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

Private Beach Cottage
Great communication with host, beach within walking distance was so nice, overall good spot within 30 mins of mystic aquarium and Foxwoods casino

Coastal Waterview with Bunkhouse & Hot Tub!
From the minute we pulled into the driveway, our family was highly impressed with the views from Kristen's home. We ended our 2023 summer with a bang. This beautiful home had everything you could ever need on vacation. We enjoyed the backyard with nightly fires. Our teen daughter rarely left the bunk house. We loved the fact that our own private beach was just a few steps away & the public beach was less than ten minutes away. The kids and adults enjoyed the beach trampoline. Kristen was delightful to deal with. She was a SUPER host. So many little details and extras she puts into her beach home. Already thinking of our next visit.

Summer cottage East Matunuck, RI 
Don’s place is amazing! The location is prime, less than 10 walk to the most beautiful beach with wonderful pavilion. Morning sunrise walk to the beach and sunset walk to the beach was just incredible! The deck was very peaceful and relaxing for my husband and me and our favorite furry child to hang out and enjoy the marsh ponds. Walking distance to great restaurants. As a runner, it was a beautiful place to run and loved that it was dog friendly. Don was extremely communicative and offered an early check in and late check out, which was so appreciative. We will definitely be returning. Highly recommend!

Sunset Farm Cottage great location
Jeanette was 10 out of 10. We loved our time there and hated to leave. Loved the cows!

Lux Waterfront Cottage-Bonnet Shores, Narragansett
Cute, quaint and quintessential New England cottage. A perfect place to rest, relax and unwind. A very quiet, private and peaceful retreat from the craziness of everyday life. Richard was extremely responsive and helpful for the few questions I had. I did not get the chance to meet him but maybe next time, I’ll certainly be back! If you love the proximity to the hustle and bustle of summer in Narragansett but prefer to be a few short minutes in the quieter bubble of Bonnet Shores, this is your place. 7am walks to the beach and 6pm wine on the patio for sunset. Pure heaven!

Welcome to The Holly at Amston Lake
We love it here! So peaceful and relaxing. Beautiful views of the lake and loved the walks and kayaking! This was our third stay. Jasmine and Jason are great hosts. There was an issue with the Keurig, and they came and replaced it with a brand new one the next day! Thank you Jasmine and Jason for a great stay!

Kayaks and Glimpses of Westport Bay
Linlin was a wonderful host and we loved this adorable cottage. It was incredibly clean, while still being warm and welcoming for us (and our pup). It's a little farther from the water than we had anticipated, but it's a relatively short and private walk to a dock with kayaks and beautiful views. Highly recommend!

Beachfront Driftwood Cottage!
Beautiful, peaceful and serene. A place to completely recharge! For both the 2 legged and 4 legged!

Peaceful Cottage + Spa services + Gardens+ Beaches
We loved our stay and would definitely return. Getting in was easy and communication with the hosts was smooth. The cottage is on a main road next door to a spa and shares a parking lot, but it was quiet and felt private. The location is very convenient to Westerly and Watch Hill. It was easy to get around and everything you might need is near by (restaurants, groceries, CVS, Starbucks and Dunkin). The place is very nicely decorated, spotlessly clean and we felt very comfortable. My husband wished there was a couch, but the tv turns towards the bed or the two comfy papasan chairs. There is a large gap between the wall and the mattress, so we used the two poufs and some pillows as a backrest, and that worked great. We planned to go to the beach, but it rained. I booked a facial at the spa (discount provided for cottage guests), and it was amazing. Highly recommended!!!

Montauk Cottage Escape
We absolutely loved our stay at Milton & Megan's Montauk house! It was perfect for a group of 4 (2 couples) there for a 4 day trip. The house is very quiet & peaceful, with lots of outdoor space, but also very walkable to town. The house was super clean, and everything was very easy to find. The bedrooms had lots of closet space, the TV was easy to set up, and all the amenities listed on the website were accurate. We'd love to come back again and stay. Thanks!

The Cottage - by Narrow River & Narragansett
Our stay in Narragansett was phenomenal and staying in The Cottage was a large part of that! The Cottage was super clean & neat! Everything looked so new & bright. It was very welcoming & relaxing to return to The Cottage after a day of wedding activities and/or sightseeing. Being at the end of the street, there was no traffic & it was very quiet. The landscaping was equally impressible! We really enjoyed watching the hummingbirds dart from flower to flower, along the bumble bees, and other birds. Marla was excellent with her proactive emails, which were very helpful. She is indeed a professional!

Contemporary cottage minutes to the heart of town!
Stayed at Johnna’s cottage for my daughter’s URI graduation. I bought the property a year in advance and once o found out that her graduation was scheduled for Sat at 9am I contacted Johnna inquiring if I could cancel the second night even though the posting said that there was a two night minimum. Johnna immediately replied that there would be no issues with editing the reservation. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed for the night. There was a sign when we first walked in welcoming up and congratulating our graduate. What a great touch! I wish that I had found this property four years ago. Would 100% book again. Thank you, Johnna!

Great Island Water View Cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Place was immaculate and beautifully appointed. Dishes, utensils etc were top of the line. For its size the place is very efficient and overlooking the water. The area was very quiet and peaceful. Walkable to small town of Galilee. Host was also very responsive with any questions we had. Would highly recommend and am already planning to go back

East Matunuck Beach/Salt Pond Getaway 2br/2ba
The host is very responsive and gives clear instructions on how to check in. It’s in a great location with a restaurant in walking distance. Perfect for our stay

Beachy 2BR | A/C, Grill, Outdoor Shower
Great little bungalow in a wonderful location. We stayed in January but I imagine it to be a bustling little community in the summer season! We can’t wait to checking it out then! The space is very clean with all that is needed for a comfortable stay. Kathy was very kind and communicated extremely well prior to and during our stay. Highly recommend staying here!

Close to East Matunuck Beach and Local Eateries!
A wonderful home to stay in that is super clean and perfect for families! A lovely location and so many fun things to do right near by!

Entire Misquamicut Cottage
We booked Michael’s cottage as overflow accommodations. Our 3 adult children were visiting and we are in a small apartment while our house is under construction. The cottage was so much more comfortable than our place, we ended up having all our family dinners there, on the deck in the sunshine and inside when the weather turned cooler. It worked out perfectly.

Ocean Pines
My partner and I spent a little less than a week at Christian's place and were already talking about booking it again for next year by day two. The location is simply unbeatable. It's super private, surrounded by trees and plants, has private access directly to the beach, and is a cozy, lovely place to stay. The perfect size for two -- felt very spacious. We went after Labor Day, so the beach was on the quiet side, but a number of local places had closed for the season (just be aware of that trade-off when booking off-season). Couldn't have asked for a better vacation spot. We will definitely be back! This is a special place.
