Enjoyable stay
We really enjoyed our 3 night stay. The house was great and a lot bigger than I expected, with 3 good bedrooms upstairs (with very comfortable beds) and very nice layout downstairs (with two very comfortable recliner couches). Most memorable, however, was the view of the lake, which we spent many hours each day viewing from the deck (or from the couches inside). The location also was as it nice allowed us to spent one day in Newport only 30 minutes south (including doing the cliff walk) and another day in Providence (about 40 mins north).

Sisters trip
We were in Rhode Island for a family trip. Our host met us at the house for a tour and information. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was really nice to have the house stocked with supplies. The weather was rainy and windy while we were there but the view was very special and relaxing. It was also comforting to know if we needed anything or had any issues the host lived right next door. Would highly recommend this rental.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
The location was peaceful and convenient to New Bedford, Fall River and Newport. The house was bigger than it looks like in the pics and spotless. The linens were clean and plentiful. The kitchen was especially well equipped, having all possible cookware, extra silverware, glasses and cups (all sparkling clean), and even an extra table and chairs stored in a large closet off the kitchen. Every glass we reached for was sparkling clean. The electronics, HVAC, plumbing and hot water worked flawlessly. So, yes- highly recommended.

House on the water
The house is right on the water. We were able launch kayaks provided right off the property. The house has nice large rooms all with views of the water. It has a great porch where we ate many meals watching boats and birds. The property owners were very happy to answer questions and offer help during our stay. We were about 30 minute drive from the famous mansion of Newport. We really enjoyed our stay.

Island Cove Portsmouth RI
Beautiful home on the cove. Very clean with all amenities to cook in or grill outside. Nice large deck overlooking the water. I had coffee on that deck most every morning. Kayaks were great, easy to launch! Games, books, small pool table and more in the garage. Lots of places to eat! Very easy to get to Newport to visit mansions or spend the day. We love Little Compton and Tiverton RI - such picturesque places to explore. Highly recommend eating at The Boat House in Tiverton on the water. Close to Boston and Providence for people who want to venture out. Three good sized bedrooms and a nice first floor overlooking the water. Beautiful setting. Highly recommend this home.

Perfect accommodations for our wedding weekend!
We were in town for our Son's wedding in Newport. The house was large and spacious enough to accommodate our family. It has everything you could need for your vacation. Unfortunately we did not have time to utilize all Maureen offered. Maybe next time. The house has a beautiful setting on the water and is immaculate. The entire process for checking in was very easy. As was checkout. Can't say enough good things about our first experience with VRBO. Thank you to Maureen for making us feel welcome.

Great Base For Visiting Newport & Area
This home was just as advertised and was the perfect location for visiting Newport and other Rhode Island cities, including Providence. The layout of the home was great for the five adults staying there. Open floor plan living area and comfy leather couches. Lots of windows allow in natural light. Spacious kitchen is well-equipped. Comfortable beds in sizable bedrooms. Beautiful setting on the water.

Lovely stay
Although the weather was not exactly cooperative, it did nothing to take away our enjoyment of the property. The place was homey and clean. The beds were comfy. Everything was in working order and as expected. I was worried about the binder of rules that I read about in others’ reviews but I worried for nothing. The binder was just some helpful things about the house and the location of things..nothing to stress or worry about. The owner Maureen lives next door. Super sweet woman. After introducing herself to us, she left us to enjoy our vacation but it was comforting to know that she was there if needed. We were able to catch some beautiful sunrises as we stood on the deck and looked to the right. Lots of great places to eat within walking distance and lots of cool things to do that were a short drive away. Thanks again for letting us stay! We enjoyed our time

Many positives to share on this stay. Two families of four stayed for this trip, and with that, it seemed like there was plenty of room as everything is open and well sized. There are beautiful views from nearly every room. The outdoor decks are great for a meal or an evening drink and you are always greeted by a gentle breeze. The kids enjoyed the mini pool and foosball tables. Kayaking here is great fun, lots to explore and pretty calm. Easy walks to town for ice cream, dinner, drinks. The best beaches are a short drive but there are near-by beaches for walking. Overall, a very solid place. The owners are close by and helped greet us day one. They said to just give them a shout if we needed anything but everything went well and so we didn’t see them again.

About the host

Hosted by Maureen Cain/Brad Barco

Host profile image
I lived in this house until 2010. I am a retired registered nurse and teacher and enjoy boating, reading, gardening, arts and crafts, cooking, and relaxing with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

I spent many a glorious summer day swimming and boating from the shore. As an adult, the drawing factor is the beauty of the water and the great diversity of water fowl and the fact that stress just melts away as soon as you arrive home. The sunrises, evening skies, twinkling light on the water from the Moon, and sea breezes are a plus, too! Even the impending change of the weather, easily seen across the water, is awesome.

What makes this property unique

This home is a stress reliever. The direct waterfront and panoramic views impart a cruise-like feeling. It is so easy to hop in a kayak and explore the shore line. Portsmouth, itself, is a laid back, non-congested town (usually) and still you have easy access to roads and highways leading to Newport, Bristol, Providence, Boston, Cape Cod, etc.
