About this property

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!

(Please note - this property utilizes a garage-mounted outdoor security camera for video and audio surveillance, as noted in the rental agreement).

Perfect Family Vacation Home
Perfect Three Generation Family Vacation! Dawn and Rick’s home in Little Compton is so lovely. Surrounded by extensive lawns and gardens, staying there was a peaceful and serene experience. Playing games outside, reading for hours around the fire pit, spotting the bunnies, woodchucks, butterflies and birds made for lots of fun and laughter! We walked easily to the beach and the Commons. We had a delightful tour at the Alpaca Farm across the road too!. The best, unexpected luxury was the outdoor shower! Thank you for having everything we could need including chairs and Turkish towels for the beach. It was so difficult to leave and we will definitely come back to stay!

Best stay in close to 50 years
We have enjoyed visiting LC for all too many years and never cease to appreciate it serenity and beauty, This rental was the best! Comfort and convenience are high on our list of priorities, and this rental checked all the boxes. Great to pack up and walk away at the end---no sheets or towels or annoying arrangements. For the last 10-15 years we have expressed the wish that the 'beach committee' would make access to the shore safer for older folks---it would take so little effort. But, thanks to kind people willing to give a little boost I can get back up the rocky drop.

Perfect Summer Pace Perfect Summer Place
I truly am without words to describe how perfect our stay was and how perfect this home was for our family. This was our 5th year coming to Little Compton to vacation and with our growing family and past vacation homes being sold, we needed to find the perfect one. And we did. A mile from the beach and the the most beautiful, pristine grounds, eat off the floor (we didn’t don’t worry) clean home it was one we hope to revisit year after year for years to come. There were so many “little” touches that went such a long way with us and added so much charm to the home. We loved sipping our coffee on the screened in porch and playing hide and seek in the expansive yard. The outdoor shower was a dream after hot active beach days. The bedrooms were perfect for our 8, 5 and almost 2-year-old and were so clean and comfortable. We loved building a bonfire and looking at the moon on one of our last nights. The Nitro coffee bar at Walkers was an every day visit for us and of course getting lobsters from Sakonnet Lobster to cook at home. I could go on but then this would be a chapter book… Dawn and Nick were incredible hosts and were super fast at responding to us (like when we had car trouble and needed a recommendation for a nearby mechanic). Can’t believe we have to wait a whole year to go back!

Perfect Place in Little Compton
We have stayed at numerous places in Little Compton over the years and this one is our new favorite. The house is wonderful, lovely and comfortable, (and has a great AC), but what really sets this place apart is the enormous yard. My daughter and I had such a great time walking around every morning and evening, encountering snails, rabbits, woodchucks, chipmunks, and so many different birds. The pictures are great, but do not capture how well this place is designed and landscaped. It's also in the perfect location.

Perfect beach house, beautiful land
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!
