Birthday Gathering
The property was clean, easy to find, and access. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked to handle all the cooking we did and there was plenty of space for everyone. It was a wonderful home and we were elated to be able to gather our friends and celebrate the completion of our 20s

Amazing house for Bridal Party!
We had 20 people stay for our wedding and it was awesome. The house is super spacious for getting ready in the morning. We even did our first look on the front porch. I recommend bringing a pillow if you are picky about them. Overall it was a wonderful property.

Great Week!
We had a great time at The Wakefield! The house had a great amount of space for our entire family and the carriage house was perfect for a quiet spot. The kitchen is fully stocked with all types of kitchen appliances and the double washer and dryers came in handy while traveling with children. Having the town within walking distance was wonderful. There are plenty of restaurants and even a grocery store a few blocks away. Our entire family had a great time!

Excellent property for family reunion
We had an excellent stay at The Wakefield!! We had 16 adults and 5 toddlers fly in from 5 different states for a family reunion and the house was exactly as explained online. The property manager was exceptional at responding to questions. All the beds were comfortable and we had plenty of towels and beach towels and chairs for all. We catered in most of our food from a local vendor which was fantastic.

Perfect house for an extended family
The house is in a perfect location, just off Main Street in Wakefield. Easy walk to dinner, ice cream, shopping, and entertainment. The house is spacious and has laundry on both the first and second floors. Ample parking even though we only had 5 cars, there was enough room for at least 3 more. The beaches are close but so is Newport, Providence, and Mystic. More than enough room for our young adults to hang out and play pool or foosball in the carriage house while the “old” folks hang out playing cards and board games in the main house. Just the perfect vacation spot for a large extended family.

Wedding weekend
We had 12-18 adults staying in the house for 4 days. Plenty of space to spread out and ample hot water. Kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. We cooked most meals at house. Great location and close to restaurants in Wakefield, close to beach and bike trails. Lots of parking for 6-7 cars. Nice front porch for having coffee in the morning. Lots of towels for showers and beach towels too. I highly recommend this house and the host was super responsive on all questions. We saved thousands of $$ vs renting 10 hotel rooms.

Spacious wonderful home
We were a group of ladies that had an amazing stay in this beautiful home. The well stocked kitchen and living room are spacious. There are so many places to sit and hang out which made it a perfect rental home for our group. The beds are comfortable and bedrooms are all as pictured. It was a short ride to Point Judith for the Block Island Ferry and a pretty ride to Newport. Robin was a great communicator. I highly recommend this home, it is fabulous!

Great graduation weekend
We stayed there for my daughter’s graduation from URI. There were 10 of us and the place was so spacious and extremely well appointed. Anything you could need was there. The weather wasn’t great, but we had plenty of room inside. Wish we could have used the outdoor space more. The carriage House game room was awesome. If we ever have another big group to go down that area, we will definitely stay there again.

Great girls weekend
I stayed at this property with a group of 14 for a girls weekend in April 2024. The house is beautiful, and the open concept kitchen/dining/living room was great for a large group to hang out. Plenty of space for 14 to sleep comfortably. The carriage house is a fun bonus. My only (small) complaint is that most of the bedrooms didn't have curtains, so they get a little bright in the morning. Still, we had a great time, and I would definitely rent again or recommend to another large group!

Good but needs work
We were here for a pre wedding celebration and it was overall what was pictured. There was some issues where not everyone had a bed though the vrbo listing said it would sleep all of our guests, this was not the case. The largest issue was the leaking pipes through the ceiling causing our party of 19 to be out 2 bathrooms and showers leaving everyone with one shower to use, the bride and grooms. I am hoping to hear back from the host for a partial/full refund as this did cause a lot of inconvenience and fear for safety during our trip. Besides those 2 elements, it was a good experience had by all!

We were pleasantly pleased with every aspect of The Wakefield. It was clean and well stocked with staples. We were within walking distance from the center of town and a few minutes drive to the beach. Our age group was from 7 years old to 83 years old. Everyone had a wonderful time.

Wonderful Thanksgiving
We enjoyed "The Wakefield' for a long Thanksgiving weekend. The first floor has an open concept living room, dining room, kitchen, a spacious area for all to hang out. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds were comfortable. We went on some lovely hikes and enjoyed a wonderful restaurant down the road. We played bocce outside on the narrow strips of grass that surround the house. We also enjoyed a couple games of pool in the attached spacious carriage house. A wonderful spot!
