About this property

Our Cottage on the water-Labor Day Special-Relax Swim Read a book Go fishing

Enjoy awesome views and private beach access to Sakonnet River from our three bedroom cottage. This cozy inviting home has modern amenities while keeping the classic Summer Cottage decor. All the beds are comfortable. All living spaces contain refurbished and new hard wood flooring. In keeping with the classical summer cottage design two bedrooms have partition walls.

The kitchen has new tile, seashell window coverings and washer and dryer. There is a combination of charming antique furniture and modern cabinetry. The kitchen also features a spectacular water view and opens directly to a screened in porch with a splendid seating area perfect for morning coffee; offering an additional 424 square feet of living area.

Features & Amenities: Settle into the gorgeous master bedroom complete with plenty of storage, high-end queen size bed, Egyptian cotton linens, custom selected art and accessories.

Relax and enjoy the second bedroom which offers a new queen size bed with cotton linens, plenty of storage and cozy atmosphere. Custom selected art and fine wood furnishings, rustic wood paneling and seaside window coverings.

One of the best-kept secrets in this comfortable cottage is the third walk-room. This wonderful bedroom defines cozy. It features an antique armoire from one of the 'Newport Mansions'. Quiet and private with a new queen size bed, the room has a whimsical nautical theme including seashell window coverings; sailboat quilt bed spread and specially selected sailboat artwork.

Most attractive of all is the open living space with two stoves including one, which is wood burning. Flooring is refurbished wood and accented by wonderful seaside window coverings. The table and charming chairs seat eight. The living area also has exquisite water views and direct access to the large screened in porch.

The large screened in porch offers multiple seating perfect for entertaining or a romantic dinner. It also offers exquisite views and great cross ventilation. Walk to the private beach access in less than 50 yards down private concrete stairs. The beach is rocky. So we recommend wearing water shoes.

This wonderful vacation home is located right on the river and is just a short drive to many great beaches and a five star golf course. Perfect for boaters; the home is located right around the corner from a full service marina. Enjoy beautiful sunrises, uncrowned beaches, and close proximity to the historic city of Newport, Rhode Island. Relax on the screened in porch and watch the sailboats, or head out to the yard just feet from the stairs and walk to your own beach. A perfect Summer Cottage. Located in a quiet centrally located residential neighborhood with plenty of parking.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jesse’s cabin by the water. Our mornings on the porch watching the boats float by and feeling the sea breezes were delightful. The area was quiet, friendly and a great place to walk our dog. The location was perfect for all the sightseeing that we hoped to do. Thanks Jesse!

Amazing cottage with great views, highly recommended

We enjoyed this cottage so much! It has great views in any kind of a weather and at any time of the day. It is fully stocked. You can find anything and everything there. It is fun just to open the cabinets and drawers to find everything your soul desires for. This cottage is a treat and in the middle between all key points in RI.

Summer cottage

This is a well maintained charming summer cottage. It has a 180 view of the water with boats passing through. It was a calm beach with no current. There was also an outdoor shower . The sunrises were beautiful. The cottage was larger and nicer than the photos show! Well stocked. Very quiet safe neighborhood. Large yard for playing games. It’s a very good find. Loved it

Peaceful vacation

Beautiful, Peaceful, quiet retreat. We were so happy to spend our vacation in Portsmouth,RI at this magical little cottage on the water. We spent most of our time on the big, beautiful, and comfortable porch. While making breakfast and coffee each morning, our lab Dixie made her way to the porch just before us. Making sure she had her place on the lounge chair to watch the water and boats passing by. Our gracious hosts were very welcoming. A very nice bottle of wine, flowers and note to our family. We had everything we needed. Thank you so much for a much needed, restful vacation at your beautiful little cottage on the water. The Sancricca, Daniele Family 🙏🐾

Total rest and relaxation

My husband and I loved our one week stay at Hannah’s Cottage. The house was clean, comfortable and the view was spectacular! We were up early most mornings to see the sunrise and spent the whole week on the screened in deck. The air conditioners were perfect for cooling off the cottage on humid days. There are 35 steps to access the private rocky beach in front of the cottage and we brought our tandem kayak and kept it tied up on the beach when not in use. The quiet neighborhood location was great for our morning walks. We visited Bristol and Newport and our favorite brewery was Ragged Island….a greenhouse and a farm onsite! All in all a relaxing week! Thank you Jesse!

Great location and view

Great location on the water and easy access to major roads north or west or to Newport. Quiet and clean, safe neighborhood. Some features such as the electrical outlets and plumbing are older and can cause some confusion- needed to turn some things off and monitor the fuse box to keep one of the air conditioners running. Once figured out, we didn’t have a problem. Loved the really large screened back porch area! Lots of yard and quiet street area also, if you have a dog to walk. One owner’s brother-in-law stopped by on our first full day to welcome us and bring flowers and a gift- what a wonderful touch to our visit! Thank you!!

Cute cottage

This place was in a beautiful neighborhood. The cottage was cute and clean but a little run down. The outside could certainly use some improvements and updates. Also, the floor wasn't level in the living room so we felt lop-sided. The "couch" in the living room was very old and the tv was very small. I love RI, but this place was a little too remote for my daughter and I. It's a great getaway for people who want peace and quiet and don't mind driving to certain destinations. The owner couldn't have been more nice and accommodating however! He was very responsive to my requests/questions and very nice to talk to.

Limited cooking facility

Cookware and kitchen appliances were rundown and were not clean Property manager bought new pans on the second day of our stay. Oven was not clean. When we turned on the oven fire alarm went on due to smoke. There was no vacuum cleaner to clean the floors. Counter space was very limited to prepare food. This place is not suitable for vacationers who like cooking and preparing their own breakfast Location was very nice and convenient.

Rustic Beauty Needs Some TLC

Will work well for a small family like ours. • The vintage style suited us very well—this is a true 1938 fisherman’s style home. Tidy, quirky, comfortable. A little rustic & unpredictable as a result (bathroom is tiny, floor slopes, some walls are, electrical outlets are sparse.) It’s clearly described in the listing & we weren’t surprised or troubled by these things. • It was clean, not musty. Porch was a little cluttered • Towels/ linens plentiful, beds super comfortable • A/C worked well to cool the whole house during a scorching stay • Kitchen is well stocked • Screen porch & location are a delight. View is incredible. We’re native to the area & know it well. You can’t go wrong with this quiet street, level back yard, & nearly unobstructed view of the river, the bridge, boat traffic. It was the perfect spot for us to relax & recharge • Landlords were very responsive to msgs (immediately in fact) & always kind in answers to our queries & alerts to issues Unfortunately, we experienced a lot of systems problems & this colored our visit almost daily. • Washer out of order upon arrival. We had to spend an afternoon of vacation in our nearby family basement doing laundry • Advertised access to the shore wasn’t available. The staircase leading to it was caved in & dangerous. As this access was one of the primary reasons we chose this rental, it was the biggest disappointment of all. The owners indicated it was a recent problem but there seemed to be stages of failed repair. Fortunately, we’re walkers, so were able to walk to the other side of the point to public access areas of the beach • Outdoor shower is just a pump for the garden hose. The stall is run down & when we arrived it didn’t work. The handyman arrived promptly to assess & within two days had the pump running but the heat never worked. To use it you had to step around hoses and lines within the stall itself. Fine for rinsing sandy feet off but not good for much else. If it were my cottage, I’d probably just tear it out and put a little platform near the garden hose for foot rinsing. • A few other smaller issues required the owners, but you get the idea. Handyman was as friendly & unobtrusive as possible but needed to make multiple visits over the week we were there. Overall, we loved the cottage, & might give it another chance. Owners were responsive and offered us a small rebate for the missing amenities. If the major issues above were corrected, we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

About the host

Hosted by Jesse Luis

Host profile image
This wonderful cottage has been in my family for over 50 years. I would spend every summer here as a youth. We would haul all of our summer clothes and some appliances (including the TV) to the cottage. It inspired me as a young person and still does today.

Why they chose this property

It is a beautiful combination of old world cottage bungalow still with modern conveniences. With a great location in a wonderful neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

The cottage has its own beach and is close the Brewer Sakonnet Marina and Montaup Country Club.
