About this property

Charming cottage with fabulous pond views, kayak pond access & minutes to beach.

Step back in time to a tranquil beach community with a charming two-bedroom cottage. This beach cottage features a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable living room, and a wraparound deck with a screened-in porch. The house has new air conditioning throughout for your comfort. A sunny light bathroom and a large outdoor shower.

Located in a peaceful neighborhood, the cottage is conveniently situated across the street from a saltwater pond ideal for kayaking and canoeing. Just down the street, you’ll find a boat launch and a “kiddie” beach. You can easily walk, bike, or drive less than one mile to miles of beautiful ocean beach. The cottage also comes with a parking pass for the local beach lots and is dog-friendly.

The cottage sits on a landscaped corner lot with fantastic views of the pond. Enjoy watching the sunrise over the water with a cup of coffee in the kitchen or on the screened-in porch. The nearby lot is perfect for launching kayaks or canoes, and you can bring chairs to relax by the water with a book or snack.

For outdoor enthusiasts, this location is ideal for kayaking, birdwatching, and hiking. The local Green Hill and Ninigret salt ponds are ideal for exploring, swimming, and birdwatching. It's just a quick bike ride to Trustom Pond or Ninigret National Wildlife Refuge for birdwatching and to Charlestown Breachway for fishing. The Kayak Centre offers rentals, tours, and guided services. There are excellent biking options, including a bike path that's ideal for rollerblading and wide-open neighborhood streets.

In the local area, you'll find a neighborhood bakery with excellent coffee, an ice cream shop, and many casual dining options, all within a mile's bike ride or a short car ride. There's also a farmers' market featuring local produce and handmade items, a weekly antique market with vendors from throughout New England, and a nearby mini golf course. The community boasts a vibrant and welcoming cultural scene, including local galleries, the Courthouse Center for the Arts, and Theatre by the Sea.

We had such a great stay at this cottage! It was cozy, comfortable, and really felt like a home away from home. We loved the location and being able to enjoy Charlestown and the surrounding area.We also really appreciated how understanding and accommodating the host was when the weather caused us to delay our arrival. She was so kind, flexible, and easy to communicate with throughout everything. It made a stressful situation so much easier, and we really appreciated her working with us.We had a wonderful vacation and honestly didn’t want to leave! We would definitely stay here again and would happily recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

It was our 3rd time there and we still love it. The AC splitters are a nice addition. Location is perfect in a quiet little neighborhood right across from Green Hill Pond. Kayak in the morning and hit the beach in the afternoon. Nice having a beach pass for the town beaches. We'll be back!
