About this property

Spectacular views at a charming waterfront cottage!!

Enjoy the comforts of staying in a charming waterfront cottage on the beautiful Narragansett Bay. With views of Prudence Island, Bristol, and the Mount Hope Bridge our guests are sure to spend the day feeling at home in one of the most gorgeous locations on Aquidneck Island. This is the perfect house for a couple or small family to enjoy the wonders of coastal living. You are sure to feel relaxed in our quaint and quiet cottage. If you choose to venture out to explore beautiful Rhode Island for the day, Newport is a short 20 min drive and Providence is a 40 minute drive (just make sure to return in time for the breath-taking sunset perfectly seen from our bay side deck).

You pick a property for your vacation and you hope for the best. And with this cottage we really felt like we had the best, and then some. There were things that you wouldn’t think to ask for—like large windows that made you feel like you were on a houseboat, like the bridge that at night looked like a jeweled necklace, like the sunset that made us get back in time each night. A lovely place, and the hosts were great—very responsive and accommodating.

Over all it was a good experience. I’d suggest replacing carpets and upgrading kitchen utensils and equipment. Our enital thought was the unit was furnished with utensils and hardware attained from yard or estate sales. Location is very good, the deck was nice.
