Great place to stay. Owners are very nice. Location is quiet and convenient to shopping and restaurants. We were visiting family who had rented a house near Scarborough Beach, so this was the perfect spot to come back to after a day of visiting and beach fun.
We loved staying here. The hosts were very nice and friendly. The place was adorable, clean and they provided lots of stuff for us. We will definitely stay again if we go back to that area.
Great location, close to Narragansett and easy drive to Newport and Providence. The place is super cute, well stocked, and clean. Karin and Dan had great suggestions and advice for things to do and see. We had a great time!
We really enjoyed our Rhode Island vacation. The accommodations were very safe, clean, and comfortable.
Our hosts provided clear instructions for free parking, access to the apartment, WIFI, and appliances along with suggestions for nearby attractions that made our stay very pleasant.
I recommend this VRBO to anyone looking for a nice place and we hope to visit again.
It was very nice they had everything ready to go. A nice pack of coookies awaited us on arrival, we added to them ice cream and it was amazing. Saw a play, visited local art shops, block island and beaches were very eventful
We had a wonderful stay here. Apartment is clean and well appointed. Location is great for lots of fun activities. Wonderful hosts, very responsive and friendly. Love the extra touches like providing us cookies and waters for our stay. Highly recommended. We'll be back.
Clean, comfortable, well appointed, 1 bedroom apartment, perfect for two people.Quiet setting, close to excellent restaurants and sites to watch sunrise(s) and sunset(s) very walkable.
Karin & Dan, owners, are pleasant and helpful and live on property.
Very tidy space with everything you could need. When I go back I am going to stay longer! The location is wonderful. Close to the RI State Beaches and just walking downtown and back is a real treat. Loved all the local stores and excellent people-watching. Everyone in town seemed to be having an excellent time - just as I was!!
We had a great stay in the apartment. The location is perfect.. a little away from the hustle bustle but close enough to Narragansett and the other beaches. We went to Scarborough North beach twice and I would definitely recommend it.
Galilee and the ferry to Block Island are also very close.
The apartment was clean and well stocked. The bed was super comfortable and adjustable…just like at home. Perfect. Guests have use of the back deck and grill which is a nice plus.
The hosts are super friendly and helpful.
A great stay!!
Very nice location and close to great restaurants and beaches. The bed could be upgraded and the ac stopped working the last day and night. Fortunately the weather was pleasant and we opened the windows.
My partner and I enjoyed a lovely two-week stay at Karin and Dan's place in downtown Wakefield while in town visiting family. The apartment was adorable, very clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. The place was enhanced by a number of thoughtful touches, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the back deck, and spent most of our days out there enjoying the flowers and bird watching while working remotely. We were also very grateful for the in-unit laundry! Karin and Dan were wonderful hosts, and we loved meeting their dog Lucy too :) Highly recommend their apartment to anyone looking for a nice place to stay right in town!
It's a cute place. quiet and comfortable. but. within a few minutes of a lot of stores. Information packet was helpful and through. we would stay again.
This is our second year here and it was perfect for our needs while moving our daughter in to URI. Sad she's going to be transferring next year, but happy to have enjoyed two great vacations in Narragansett 😢 Thanks again Karin and Dan!
My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful stay at this centrally-located, clean, fully-equipped apartment in South Kingston. As others noted, there's a peaceful deck for relaxing over coffee or a glass of wine. Lots of good restaurants very close by (Two Ten Oyster Bar, Tavern on Main, and Trattoria Romana were great, as well as Monahan's Clam Shack). Kitchen was just right for cooking in a couple of nights. We spent most days at Scarborough Beach (ample parking), but took the short drive to Newport one day. A fun & relaxing week at an apartment just right for the two of us!
We used very clean property close to beach as our “crash pad,” as we were at beach and out and about. Had all amenities we needed to keep our beach vacation going, having washer/dryer and dishwasher was great. Communication great. Thank you!
Great place to staty near from the beach. Clean with all the amnenities you need. Very well located in a charming beautiful street with a lot of mature trees, private and quiet. The backyard is very relaxing, and we liked to see birds on the deck.
We loved this apartment. It was clean and comfortable with a great deck for morning coffee. Location was very convenient to restaurants, beaches, Block Island Ferry and a lot more. Owners were wonderful, very friendly and helpful. A great getaway.
The property is very clean & neat, and the location is super convenient. The hosts are nice & have provided everything we may need. We enjoyed our stay & would recommend it. Many thanks !

About the host
Hosted by Karin Porter/ Dan Porter
We love living in Southern Rhode Island and don't plan on moving elsewhere. I am originally from Santa Barbara and moved to Rhode Island years ago, so we could raise our family near my Husbands family and then my family moved here a few years later. We have a 38 year old son with Downs Syndrome who lives with us who we love dearly, and our Daughter is a teacher. We also have 2 grandchildren who we enjoy seeing. We enjoy traveling in our motor home and taking an occasional cruise. We are hoping to provide some additional income with our rental as I am planning on retiring soon. We would welcome your stay.
Why they chose this property
We decided many years ago we wanted to live in Southern Rhode Island. We bought this house in 1993 and over the years have fixed it up so it is now how we want it and where we want to live. We added on the apartment a few years ago for my mother to live in so we made it very comfortable, safe and secure. She lived there for years until she no longer needed it. It has its own private entrance and I am sure you would feel comfortable there and enjoy you stay.
