Wonderful Dog Friendly Stay

We had an amazing time visiting Newport and this home was a perfect place for us to stay with our two pups. The fenced in back and front yards kept our dogs safe and happy, the house was clean and well kept, the hosts were communicative about all we needed to know, and the location was quiet and peaceful while still being a convenient walking distance to the fun hustle and bustle of Bowens Wharf/Thames/Etc. We would easily recommend to anyone!

Wedding weekend

Our host was incredible. They were very informative and responsive. Their home was clean, and welcoming. My now husband and I stayed at this property in Aug of 2024 while celebrating our wedding and it was the perfect place to decompress before and after our wedding day. We are planning on coming back to this property every year to celebrate our anniversary and brining our dog! Please stay here!

Geeat yard for pets. Location was great close to the action on a quaint street close to the water. Placement of Toilet was funky. Dirt build up in corners of rooms and especially around tub. One of the mattresses was very old you would sink to the middle could not access tv or internet

Walk to waterfront park - walk to downtown for sightseeing. If you like to walk this is a tremendous choice. As others have said - most excellent for pups and the people that care for them.

Newport hone

Location was outstanding—walkability to downtown was excellent. Could also walk to a small park that’s on the water, however, you can’t walk down near the water but beautiful scenery to enjoy! For improvements: Maybe newer/more comfortable couch and the ability to open windows. A little disappointing that I couldn’t open the windows for fresh air….sone people may not care but….overall house had great character and was very quaint!❤️

Weekend in Newport

Was a lovely weekend with our 70 pound pup, and 2 year old son. The location is amazing, 10 minute walk to downtown meant the street was nice and quiet for sleeping kiddos, and easy to walk into the bustle of town. Kathy was helpful and gave some good pointers on things to do! Would recommend!

Nice cottage

The location is great and the backyard for our pup was a bonus… some stuff should have been addressed before we arrived… family member may sleep in the garage, which is attached to the house through a breezeway which you walk through to go in the back yard. Showed up around 10:15 pm and started all of us, when initially we were told the night before someone (husband) may stop in around 1:00 pm to park in the driveway ( maybe getting something in the garage) we thought that was odd…it is an older cottage with nice charm could use a little upkeep on some stuff… its a rental. Overall the spot is great and slept comfortably and in a great neighbourhood!

Very nice

Old house, but everything was very clean. I chose this property because it had a fenced in yard for my dog. My one complaint is not being able to use the breezeway door. That would be much more convenient than having to go around to the front.

Cute and convenient

Perfect spot for 3 people and dogs. The little house is exactly as portrayed in the listing. So amazing to have a fully fenced back yard for the pups plus the extra protection out the front door with a fence in front too. The side door into the breezeway sticks in the winter so couldn't be used. That would have been handy. Kitchen was well equipped but note that there is not a full freezer when planning your shopping. Beds were soft for my taste but not terrible. Couldn't really imagine a better spot if you have dogs and want to visit Newport.

Cozy & Quaint cottage in a Perfect location

We had an amazing long weekend. Many walks around the neighborhood, walking distance to the pier and 2 parks on the water. We walked to the lighthouse on goat island. Walked to Breakfast at Belle’s Cafe in the shipyard. Easy bike ride to everything. The Tennis Hall of Fame worth a walk through the courtyard to check out. The Cliff Walk is a must! Weekends you can park on Shepherd road. We had endless activities all weekend. The back side of the bar at the Landing was the best spot to bring you dog for lunch. 2 blocks down from the cottage was pickle ball, field and tennis court. Our pup loved hanging on the front step because the front was also fenced in. Our dog had a blast this weekend too! Can’t wait to go back. The cottage was perfect for us with a beach decor that made it feel like home to us Cape Codders.

Hi I’m Kathy
Born and raised in Newport. My husband Ed and I love being able to provide a pet friendly home that is clean and comfortable. We know how hard it is to find a place to stay when having pets. We are proud of our reviews and proud to say we have guests who come back every year.

Why they chose this property

I grew up here on the Point.
It’s a quaint area of Newport, with the pier and great sunsets just two blocks from the cottage and views of the Newport bridge.

What makes this property unique

The cottage has great space for pets and easy walk to the water and parks.
The Point area is a desirable area in Newport.
