Rustic and family-friendly bow house, close to South Shore Beach
Located in beautiful and picturesque Little Compton, on 3.77 acres of private land, and only1.2 miles from South Shore Beach. House sleeps up to 8 and is the perfect spot for families, friends, and couples alike! Spend each morning sipping coffee on the screened in porch or go for a misty morning stroll around the field and watch the deer and rabbits come and go. Once the sun sets, relax by the fire in the fire pit and listen to the crickets and sounds of the night with a glass of wine in hand and a cozy blanket. Once the summer sun is gone and the leaves start to turn golden, hunker down with some hot chocolate or warm apple cider (Little Compton is great in the fall!). 3 bedrooms upstairs (2 queen bed and 1 full bed) and 1 bedroom downstairs (queen bed), 1.5 bathrooms, central air conditioning, games, open concept dining/living room floor plan, galley kitchen, screened in porch, and conveniently located near everything Little Compton has to offer!

Great place for a family vacation!Large yard for kids to play in and explore, nice fire pit, comfortable and peaceful deck for sunning and relaxing, convenient to beach and close to general store that has everything.
This was honestly one of the best rental properties that my family and I have ever stayed in. It’s the perfect combination of rustic Beach House with updated features. A wonderful amount of space in a clean well-maintained house. And I can’t say enough about the piece of land that it’s on. Our kids spent so much time running around the yard, and we loved making fires in the fire pit, looking out onto the beautiful native meadow. Super close to the beach and to downtown Little Compton. A truly wonderful stay.
Beautiful grounds with wide open spaces for kids to play. The house is comfortable, withcomfortable bedding and room for eight adults. Two full baths if you include the outdoor shower. Heaven! There’s also a claw foot tub for soaking. Bring paper goods, as there is no dishwasher. But other than that, everything is there. Lovely, relaxing week , only one mile from the beach.
I consider myself to have high standard when it comes to cleaning, and this place was impeccable! Every detail thought out, everything provided easily and clear! BEAUTIFUL property, cherry blossom tree was in full bloom which led to even more of a magical feel. So great. Thank you for letting us stay!:)
My book club (7 girls) spent a very rainy Memorial Day Weekend at this property and despite the awful weather, we had the best time! This home was so cozy and clean and the perfect location for exploring Sakonnet Vineyard, Four Corners in Tiverton, and Bristol. We spent a lot of time indoors doing crafts, having meals together, and playing games :) We would absolutely stay again (and hope for a beach day next time)!
Beautiful home and property! Everything about this home exceeded our expectations. The property location was a perfect distance to the beach, the orchards, the preserves and the winery.
This property was everything the listing stated it would be. Communication with the owner Dawn was great and we loved everything about our stay. Would highly recommend this property.
Beautiful and serene property. The outdoor shower was heaven! Rustic but modern home, extremely clean and well taken care of. It was the perfect weekend getaway. Thank you!!! We WILL be back.
My family and I had a wonderful stay this past week. The house, and the property were beautiful. We are already looking forward to next year! Thank you Dawn and Nick!
Dawn’s place was perfect. The house was clean, beautiful and in great condition. The grounds were stunning, peaceful and relaxing. Dawn was a warm and welcoming host and super responsive. We will definitely be back!
Everything was excellent! The house and property were beautiful and I appreciated all of the native plantings. The only downside (this was my bad) was that we stayed there for the weekend to attend a wedding in Newport and it was further from Newport than I thought (about a 50 min drive). But, that's on me - should have check that before I booked. Would stay again - gorgeous property!
We had a friends wedding in Little Compton, so 6 of us travelled from Australia and 2 from Canada. It was a great weekend away and the house was super close to the wedding venue and winery (for welcome drinks). Cute little town to pop into and pick up some souvenirs and an amazing cheese place!The property was spacious and had everything we needed. Would be lovely to stay again during some warmer weather as there were lots of beach chairs and outdoor spaces to be used.Thanks for an amazing stay!
From the cozy beds to the beautiful decor this listing has it all! The owners have thought of everything you will need to enjoy your stay and then some. The most amazing yard and wildlife with an outdoor shower to die for! I would give this listing 100 stars if I could! Anyone who books here will not be disappointed!
The communication with Dawn prior to arriving was superb and pleasant, she’s a very accommodating hostess. The house is adorable, clean and well decorated great ambience to spend time with the family! The grounds are well kept and makes the experience even more enjoyable.
Easy walk to the beach and fabulous area to explore. Highly recommend!
This is a lovely home and is even better than the pictures. The home was booked to celebrate a birthday milestone with family. The house comfortably handled 8 adults. The outdoor setting was gorgeous...and don't miss out on the outdoor shower...it is amazing. We want to come back for a longer visit to take in all the area has to offer.
We had an amazing stay at Dawn and Nicks home. The house was immaculately clean, comfortable, and just so dang cute! You can tell it’s lovingly taken care of and there’s been many beautiful memories made there (including our own). The grounds really are as breathtaking as other reviews said and yea… the outdoor shower really is next level. One last thing, Dawn and Nick really are great hosts and you can tell they want you to feel at home there, that’s not an experience I’ve always gotten with other rentals so kudos to you two.
This is a gorgeous property, and one could spent the entire time just enjoying different parts of the grounds. Ample privacy and beautiful landscaping lend themselves to pure tranquility. The amenities of the house are excellent, including a nicely-furnished kitchen. Highest recommendation.
House and grounds were the best!! Stayed at many VRBO properties - none better than this one!Extended family with 4-7 staying at various times - all age groups loved it - Fire pit, sun deck, patio are all well planned, firewood on site, lots of room for the kids to play ball, lots of space for the adults to relax. Dawn and Nick very responsive - contacted us when a thunderstorm knocked out power in the area to check in - fortunately only the lights flickered.Modern house with all amenities needed for a joyous family stay.Will definitely be back next year!!!
