Reunion weekend

The cottage is even better than the pictures, and the pictures are awesome. The little touches like a full new bar of dove soap, beach chairs & the softest linens make this a place I would absolutely recommend & look forward to staying in again.

First Rhode Island visit

Very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful little cottage. Being our first time in RI, its location gave us easy access to Middletown and Newport, as well as a 30-40 minute drive to the Providence area. We loved the seclusion the cottage offered. Enjoyed the back deck and outdoor shower everyday. Short drives to local beaches and the bird sanctuary.

Charming cottage

Lovely place for a week-end getaway ! We enjoyed the calm and privacy of the property. Minutes from downtown Newport, but away from the crowd. Lori was very attentive to our needs, and helped book a great restaurant. The only thing I would improve is to get a small microwave for the cottage, warming up food on the stovetop was not the best... Otherwise , great experience , would visit again !

Wonderful home and location

We stayed in Lori’s cottage late June and we truly enjoyed the time there. The cottage is cozy, beautifully decorated and spotless. It is well stocked as well. The outdoor shower is fabulous! We communicated often with Lori and she is extremely nice and helpful. Her assistant Rebecca is lovely as well. We ended up meeting both of them in person and they are amazing! The location is perfect as well. We will definitely return!

Cozy weekend

We had a lovely weekend at this cozy cottage. Our stay was comfortable, and the location was perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Newport. You could tell that the hosts really pay attention to the small details at this place. It was also delightful to just sit outside and listen to the sounds of nature in the morning. Would also highly recommend a visit to the Norman Bird Sanctuary given its proximity.

Great stay in Middletown!

Really comfortable cabin-home place with everything we needed to feel at home... Great location, close to the beaches and Newport sights, but just far enough away to be out of the touristy scene... great, friendly and super responsive host.

Labor Day Getaway

The cottage was just as described. No bad surprises to be found. Clean and cozy, just wish some parts were a little higher as we had to watch out for our heads not getting bumped. If you're over 6 foot tall, watch your head. :) The water bottles and goodies in the kitchen were very appreciated. Only drawback was the lack of lighting outside at night. Really have to watch your step when it's dark. Thank you Lori for the recommendations and quick communication. Hope to be back again.

2-day Beach Getaway

Everything as described. Quaint bungalow, perfect for two of us looking for some relaxing beach time. Short drive to public beach ($) and local restaurants. AC was pleasant during heat wave. Outdoor shower a bonus but would benefit from a bit more water pressure. Would definitely return.

Cutest Cottage Vacation

SOOOOO cute inside. Bathroom is a little tight, but my husband used the outside shower and loved it. Very quiet and comfortable. Plenty of clothes storage and the closets are huge and equipped with plenty of hangers. The single bedroom had tons of drawers. Kitchen has everything except a microwave, but there is a toaster oven. We loved it

Peaceful Retreat

We had a lovely getaway at Lori’s cottage. The cottage is just a pictured with tasteful and comfortable furnishings and bedding. The cottage is located in a peaceful area, adjacent to bird sanctuary, yet very convenient to the beach, restaurants, and downtown Newport. Lori responded promptly to all our questions. We would love to return next summer for a longer stay. Thank you Lori!

A Wonderful Stay

This house was as advertised and reviewed - a lovely, clean, comfortable, equipped, private - a lovely place to spend our first trip to Rhode Island. The outdoor shower was great! Extra beach towels and beach chairs were useful and appreciated. The location was perfect - close to beaches, wildlife preserves, Newport. Lori was an incredibly friendly and helpful host.

Beautiful Peaceful cottage

I rented this cottage for myself to have a few days of rest and relaxation. The cottage was exactly as shown in the pictures. It was very comfortable and clean. I enjoyed a visit to Sweet Berry farm up the street and walking around Newport, which is only a few minutes away. It was a great experience and I would definitely return!

"A return to childhood scenes" of the 1940's where I grew up.

Absolutely charming. A cozy nest for two (or three) people situated in one of the most idyllic areas of rural Aquidneck Island. Nestled in wooded bird sanctuary greenery while only minutes from the Middletown beaches.
