We were so happy to find this charming rental in South Kingston, just minutes from everything we wanted to do in the Narragansett area. We had been a little nervous about traveling during the COVID pandemic, but the place was sparkling clean and had everything we needed. Lisa was great to communicate with before we arrived, and we were able to let ourselves in with the keyless entry.
Within just 10 minutes drive, we could go to Moynahan’s Clam Shack (which had some of the best lobster rolls we’ve ever had!), Brickley’s ice cream (totally delicious, with homemade waffle cones), several beaches and pleasant hikes (the Whale Point Reserve was our favorite), and kayaking/paddleboarding! Narrow River Kayaking (just 5 minutes away) looked fabulous, but might require calling a couple days ahead because they were all booked up the day we wanted to go — so we just drove 15-20min to to Jamestown and went kayaking along the bay shore there.
When we were tuckered out for the day, we returned to the cottage and relaxed on the comfy sectional couch & enjoyed the giant living room TV (which came with cable). The kitchen is small but fully equipped with all the pots/pans, plates/bowls/utensils, toaster oven, blender, and a microwave. The bathroom also had shampoo/conditioner and a hairdryer.
The beds (one queen/full-sized in the master bedroom, and a twin bed in the little bedroom) were comfortable, and a perfect setup for a couple with one kid. (Though I imagine another kid could also comfortably sleep on the living room couch).
All in all, a perfect stay! We would totally rent here again next time we wanted a Rhode Island getaway!
