Perfect for family gatherings.

Stairs lead directly to the water from the yard where you can fish from the shore.

House is within walking distance to the town harbor and beach, local coffee shop, convenience store, restaurants, charter fishing boats and fish store. You'll love parking the car and not having to drive if you don't want to.

Tiverton is an undiscovered coastal and rural town with a family feel, and none of the congestion of the Cape.

Great stay

Four sisters and our mom stayed in the house. It was spacious, had a great view, comfy beds and plenty of linens. The house was clean. There was a short power outage on one night of our stay. We weren't at the house at the time but the owners texted us to tell us where the flashlights were located. Easy check in and check out. Great location...close to town. A lovely long weekend!

A short break

We live in urban Rhode Island and wanted a short break. The house is wonderfully set up and comfortable. It was a great base for exploring an area that we were already very familiar with. The property manager was extremely helpful with suggestions and immediate responses. The house is on a very busy road, but we adjusted to the traffic noise while inside the house itself.

Marvelous place!

Everything about the spacious house is outstanding - comfortable furniture, including terrific beds and linens. Kitchen is amazingly well equipped, with high-end cookware, lots of plates, service pieces, etc. Views are picture-postcard perfect. Would love to have stayed weeks instead of days.

Beautiful Views

This home has everything you could need for a relaxing stay, just bring your luggage! Situated on the Sakonnet river, it has beautiful views and lovely sunsets. It is twenty minutes or so from beaches in Little Compton and thirty or so from Newport and its beaches. Several very good golf courses in the area and fine restaurants too.

Wonderful vacation spot

We stayed for a week and had a wonderful time. The house was very clean with everything provided. We were instantly comfortable and happy there. The views out back are amazing and we loved siting out there with our 2 yr old watchful the boats and the birds. I'd have given it 5 stars but it is on a main road and the noise level was loud for sleeping, but leaving the a/c units on at night helped drown it out. Overall a really great property close to everything. We hope to go back!

Outstanding!

This was the ideal spot for our family's stay to celebrate commencment at RWU. Do not be deceived by the unassuming facade because the attention to detail will definitely impress once you cross the threshold! Conveniently located; Newport and Bristol a short ride away. Thanks to our hosts for a memorable stay in Tiverton. We look forward to returning to this gem on the Sakonnet!

Idyllic waterfront home!

What a gem of a place. Beautiful house, very well appointed, and looks out on the Sakonnet River. This This part of Southeastern New England is often overlooked, though it's a stone's throw from Newport, and all the coastal beauty of the region. The house is great - pleasant and inviting to be in. Lots of games and videos to keep the family entertained. Highly recommended.

About the host

Host profile image
We have lived here in Tiverton since 2006. We love living on the water and can not say enough about how perfect it is to wake up every day and enjoy a new view. Boating - both power and sail, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding, fishing, water sports are all to be enjoyed right here in this little slice of heaven. We love cycling, and enjoy the 26 mile round trip from the house to Sakonnet Point, with many gorgeous trips in between. We live next door and are available for questions or any issues that may arise during your stay

Why they chose this property

We chose this home because it is a perfect waterfront home to be used for rentals and visiting family. It has been newly re-furbished and is clean and inviting. It's convenient to many beaches, Newport, Providence and Boston. Airports, train stations and busses are also close.

What makes this property unique

Walking to the local coffee shop in the morning, strolling along the town beach, watching the boats come in and out of the Sakonnet Harbor and parade past the house is a favorite activity. Full spectrum of water and nature enjoyments abound.
