Anniversary Getaway
Overall great stay! Great location, close to the water and beach. Plenty of things to do, the weekend was definitely not enough. We were able to go to Block Island via ferry and that was a short drive away. Had some great seafood at Matunuck Oyster Bar and Dead Eye Dick's on Block Island. Lovely stay for a great price!

TERRIBLE HOST
Host cancelled first night of a three night stay due to impending hurricane three days prior to arrival. I understood the situation and had to find new accommodations. I have yet to get my refund from this host despite numerous messages back and forth. Host claims I received a partial credit or refund from VRBO, which I did not. I have contacted Vrbo directly to help get my money back. Host is offering only 70% refund. I have used these types of accommodations for almost all my travels over the past few years and have never had such a problem trying to work with a host. Rude, condescending, and combative. BEWARE

Very relaxing!
The cottage is very clean and has many interesting decorations to look at. It’s rather small but it was fine for the two of us for a short getaway. The little village it is located in is very nice. Capn Jack’s seafood is across the street and was very good. However, the Oyster Bar across the waterway was outstanding! We ate there 3 times during a 3 night stay. Matunuck Beach is a minute down the street and lovely. Very quiet, relaxing stay.
