We had a great time exploring Providence and Newport from here. There is plenty of room and everything you need to make meals in. We spent time playing games and reconnecting. The house is in a nice quiet neighborhood with stores nearby and places to pick up food close by as well. It was a great trip and we have great memories from our visit.

Our family stayed in the carriage house (6 people) while visiting for a graduation. The bedrooms and bathrooms have plenty of space. While there are sleeping accommodations for 6, there is only seating in the living room for three people, and four at the dining room table. That was tight. Even so, we made do. The owners are great! The property is clean and is in a beautiful residential neighborhood. Finding it, initially, was a little difficult as it's down a very narrow driveway. All in all, we recommend this property, especially for a family.

Quiet Retreat in a Lovely Neighborhood

Our stay was everything I had hoped for! The carriage house is lovely. It was very clean, well stocked in every way. Very comfortable, very quiet. We prepared food easily. There were three of us and we each had plenty of space to be together or apart. We look forward to returning.

We enjoyed our stay in the Carriage House. It's a wonderful property tucked away on a tree-lined neighborhood. It's an easy walk to Brown's campus and to restaurants in Wayland Square. The house is very functional--three large bedrooms and another bed in the loft. It was very comfortable for two couples. We worried that it might feel too close to the main house, but that wasn't the case. We really felt like we had our own space, and very much enjoyed our time there.

Perfect place to stay

We were looking at Brown and RISD, and this was the perfect location. We could walk to both universities as well as local dining and shopping. The space itself was newly remodeled and quite beautiful. The neighborhood was safe to walk my dog around at night. 5 stars.

Delightful house in delightful neighborhood

We enjoyed our visit to Providence for a spring break with 2 teens, their parents and a grandmother. The carriage house is lovely, with 3 bedrooms on 3 floors. The bathrooms are very well appointed and the kitchen is well equipped. The beautiful living /dining area is on the small side. It would be helpful to have a few folding chairs so that 5 or 6 people can sit at the table to eat. We were so glad to be in an area of the city close to everything we wanted to visit. Jean is a terrific host.

Great Space & Location

We spent a week in the Providence area for a family vacation - with older teenage/adult children. The home was perfect for us because had their own space and we also had some community space to share. Location was great - near great restaurants, easy access to highways, and a safe neighborhood. The home and property was clean, easy to access and no complaints from any of our family members. Communication with our hosts was easy and they were quick with any needs that we had. Would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in the Providence area.

First stay at this property, spent a week with family attending a graduation and moving our new grad off campus. House was well equipped for the stay, very clean, convenient location as listed. A minor issue with the dishwasher was resolved immediately by the host. Note for individual preferences: the beds are firm, and the coffee maker is small! Could be a problem for some. But overall a terrific place to stay for Brown/RISD visits.

Lovely stay at the carriage house

My family of 4 came over from London to drop off our daughter at RISD. The house was at the perfect location as it was very close to RISD and Brown which made logistics amazing ! It is also close to whole food and a starbucks as well as other brunch and lunch places which was super convenient . The carriage house was also really clean and Jean our host was super communicative and replied my many questions about about seaside towns to visit and recommendations of places to eat and excercise, which was very helpful. I would highly recommend and hopefully stay here again .

Ideal Providence rental

This is a great property-a renovated garage that has two private bedrooms plus an attic sleeping loft with 2 beds. The space is immaculate and very well appointed. We didn’t cook any meals but the kitchen was well-equipped and we could have. The location is exceptionally quiet but super close to the Brown campus and the Thayer St district. Communication with the property management was impeccable and I basically cannot recommend this property highly enough.
