♥CozyGetaway-Narragansett-15min to Newport-HotTub♛
Amazing stay this weekend at Leann’s place!! Felt right at home & the place was fully stocked with literally everything we could need, she even left us some eggs in the fridge for breakfast! Perfect location, easy to follow instructions, very clean, super responsive! First time stay in RI was everything we could’ve needed for winter wellness weekend. Hope to be back in summer!

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.

Waterfront Oasis minutes from Newport w/ hot tub!
The house was beautiful! Quaint and updated interior with spectacular views. The deck and hot tub overlooking the water were particularly stunning and peaceful. Beaches and restaurants in walking distance made the location ideal as well. We loved watching the ducks on the water each morning while we drank our coffee and spending time by the picture window overlooking the water. Our host was responsive and kind. All amenities we needed were provided and the kitchen was one of the best equipped we have seen in rentals. Overall, a perfect week in a lovely home that we would absolutely want to enjoy again! Highly recommend.

Jamestown: Cozy Cottage W/Aug&Labor Wk dates
Very well equipped house, amazing backyard with pool and hot tub, definitely the highlight of the house. The washer wasn't working but Stephen was a great host, very communicative and offered to get our clothes washed if needed (we didn't need it). Would definitely recommend!

Summer cottage East Matunuck, RI 
We had such a wonderful time at Don's beach house! What a great find it is! So close to the beach and restaurants both are within walking distance. Watching the Egrets every morning and afternoon from the awesome deck was so peaceful. If you enjoy bird watching this is the place for you! Sunsets from the deck are absolutely spectacular ! The house is on a beautiful lot, was very clean and surprisingly spacious inside and out! Don was always quick to respond and answered any questions we had. We cannot wait to come back again next summer!

Brady cottage, Little Compton, RI
This is the second time I’ve stayed at Sheila’s cottage. It’s always a pleasant experience. Sheila is very responsive, and I’m highly satisfied with the cottage. It’s exactly as described, and everything worked flawlessly. I could not recommend this more highly.

Lux Waterfront Cottage-Bonnet Shores, Narragansett
I can’t say enough about Vicky and Rick‘s place. Not only is it the cutest little cottage on the water, but it is in a great location and a perfect little neighborhood. The house has all the amenities needed. All instructions for everything were very laid out. It was clean and modern, but with a vintage feel. The bedroom is amazing with all around windows and a great view of the water. I would definitely come back here again perhaps in the fall or summer. Highly recommended!

Cheerful cottage in beachside neighborhood
We found the cottage to be spotless and had everything we needed for our 5-day stay. Our hosts were friendly and so very considerate. It is a sweet, cozy cottage- perfect for our visit!

Cheerful Prudence Island Cottage Getaway via Ferry
Essays have never been a strong skill of mine, so please excuse my bluntness. Prudence Island is not for everyone. It is however for me and my family. We came to ride bikes, fish, walk around, and just relax. It was only for a few days, and we have 4 kids, so relaxing was a bit tricky. Thats on us. However, as far as Taiji's cottage is concerned, it catered to what we were looking for. With quick access from the Ferry, to the beach, or even indoor entertainment (we arrived just before a storm). He and his team had provided everything we could need, and then some. (Thank you for having a pack and play for our baby.) While I'm hopeful to own a place on Prudence (someday...) I would certainly like to stay here again, and would highly recommend Taiji's place to any interested individual or family. Thanks again, -Patrick Cassidy, 3rd generation islander

Modern 2-bed cottage, steps to beach
My daughter and I stayed at John’s place for a week and it was wonderful. The space was clean and perfectly appointed. The proximity to the beach was great, too. John was an extremely responsive host. I would absolutely stay here again. Barrington is a great town. If you’re a coffee drinker you have to try Borealis in Riverside. The Blue Kangaroo and The Black Pear are great breakfast/lunch spots as well. We loved Barrington Books - great spot for great gifts.

The Anchorage Seaside Cottage
The cottage was clean and comfortable and the location/neighborhood was terrific. Air conditioning would have been great to deal with the dampness at times but the fans kept the place comfortable enough. We will return next vacation! Loved the area as well and the guide book that Norm provided was a great help/addition.

Welcome to Fly Fishers Cottage
Fly Fishers Cottage was the perfect choice for my visit home for the holidays. The cottage is exactly as described, spotless, super cozy, and it was even decorated for Christmas! It was the exact amount of space I needed and felt like a home away from home. It is ideally located to get to Jamestown and Newport, as well as to other parts of RI and MA where I was visiting family. Clare is a wonderful host, very responsive, and flexible with check in/out which I hugely appreciated. She also made sure outside was cleared and gritted after some snow - it seems like a small thing, but made me feel welcome and taken care of. I really hope to stay at the cottage again on my upcoming summer visit - thank you Clare!
Private cottage rentals

NEWLY Renovated-Charming Cottage by Easton's Beach
Great location- close to everything, but quiet enough to feel like you are away from the hustle and bustle. The hosts were very flexible with helping us make the first trip with our baby smooth. Would definitely recommend their place!

Windsurfers Cove, Shorefront Cottage
Windsurfers Cove was exactly as pictured and described. The house was immaculate, extremely cozy and had everything we needed. The location and scenery was perfect! Absolutely peaceful! The host Jonas was very prompt with responding prior to and during our stay. We look forward to returning.

Cozy 2 bedroom beach cottage in Wickford
This is a sweet house in a great location. Comfortable and functional, with herons fishing all day in the pond across the road. Would love to come back in warm weather to take advantage of the screened in porch overlooking the marsh!

Lakefront Cottage w/Private Beach
This place exceeded our expectations & needs! The host was kind enough to let us check in earlier at a cost & we’re so glad we did. It was a beautiful location & set up. We enjoyed the special touches to make it feel welcoming. Thanks for the “extras” you offered incase we forgot to bring anything. Everything was great. Would most definitely stay here again!

River Bend Cottage II, 2.2 Miles to the Beach
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!

BEACH COTTAGE-NARRAGANSETT, RI (JEM) "OSPREY"
Adorable place. We felt right at home. The kids loved the bunks and the loft space. There were games and books to keep them occupied when we were there. The beach is right across the street for quick access to sunrises and sunsets. We would definitely stay here again!

Centrally located, remodeled. Beach - splash pad
Everything was wonderful! Such a good find near Warwick.

Melrose Cottage - Bristol, RI
This beach cottage was lovely and an enjoyable stay. The place was clean and walking distance to the town beach/the water. The neighborhood was relatively quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed having dinner on the back deck during our stay. Steven and Erin were responsive and sweet to leave us some treats for our stay.
