We were 7 friends on a girls getaway. With 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms there was plenty of room for everyone. We also enjoyed breakfast on the deck in the mornings and wine and snacks in the evenings. The home looked just as nice as in the pictures and the beds were very comfortable. The area was close to the beach and plenty of restaurants close by. It was also close enough to visit lighthouses and Newport sights. We would definitely return if we are in the area again.
We had extended family stay here for a long weekend for my brother's wedding. The house was lovely. The location was amazing, close to the beach and to many restaurants but the neighborhood was quiet. We would definitely come back to stay again, and highly recommend!
We had a fabulous Girls' Weekend to celebrate an upcoming milestone birthday, and the house comfortably accommodated 5 of us (we're usually 6 and were down 1, but we initially booked for all 6 and would've been just as comfortable with one more person). We were able to bring food and cook some meals to save on eating out. Linens were clean, beds were comfortable, showers were great! We did end up washing any dishes before we used them because they felt a little greasy, but we probably would've done that no matter what. We had a great stay!
Derek's home was perfect for our family; the set up is wonderful. The placement of the bedrooms worked really well. The fact that there are 3 full baths is amazing. We loved spending time on the deck. The neighborhood is very quiet. We would definitely stay there again.
Everything was absolutely phenomenal with the house, we were so happy with everything. Thank you for helping make our wedding weekend perfect!

Enjoyed our family vacation with kids and grandchildren. Plenty of room for 6 adults and 4 kids under 9. Back bedroom on main level perfect set up for âboys roomâ with separate bathroom and tv. Very spacious and lovely deck off kitchen with plenty of seating. Plan to go back with family again!
We had a wonderful week with our family. The layout was great for everyone from grandparents to teens! The location of this house is awesome! It is just a VERY short walk to Roger Wheeler.Beach. Derek,,the owner, was a pleasure to work with too!
The house was well equipped with everything you need! The house was very clean too! Perfect setup of bedrooms especially if 2 families renting together ! Backyard & deck gives you privacy too! The neighborhood is so quiet !! Neighbors were really nice too! The kids highlight was the ice cream truck that comes around !! Canât wait to rent the house again !!
Perfect location to be able to bicycle to ferry. We had a group of 9 and plenty of space for sleeping, eating as a group and playing games. The kitchen was well equipped. The gas fireplace was a nice touch. The decks in back would we great if we had been there in the summer. The owner was quick to respond to our questions. We would definitely come back again!
This was the perfect location for our 8 adults to stay for the weekend to send off our passed love ones ashes out to sea. Plenty of parking quiet, neighborhood, walked to a secret beachcoming area not far from house. House was super clean, welcoming, spacious, plenty of bathrooms, awsome shower,cute screen room and great grilling area. It was just perfect. You wont be disappointed. It was a 3min drive to ice cream or ferry or georges rest, salty brine beach. Mins from gas and stores ecct.such a friendly neighborhood. We all stayed here and had a navy Tapps service in a nearbye parkinglot and then boarded snappa charters for a buirial at sea with captain charlie. Highly recommend him.this was such a beautiful way to say goodbye.everything was perfect. I have zero complaints and believe me a rent lots if vacation homes.this is one of my favorite places to stay.
My 3 children & grandchildren stayed at this lovely home for a family vacation with us.The 11 of us were very pleased with the layout of the house especially having 4 children under 5 and we were able to have plenty of space for the 3 different families and privacy for the 2 napping children. The beaches are just a 5 min walk away and very kid friendly....swings, slides, etc were also at the beach we went to all week. The house was immaculate and the owner was always quick to answer any of my questions and very helpful with anything I asked. We didn't realize we were just 2 miles from the ferry that goes to block island and very close to the Point Judith Lighthouse that has restaurants , ice cream, etc along the way. The Coast Gaurd House restaurant was also a few miles away and we ate there one night along Narragansett Beach with a beautiful view. Also Brickleys Ice cream shop was a favorite just a few miles away in Wakefield. I highly recommend this rental & area especially if you have children & for an owner who was very helpful and easy going. Great 1st vacation we've taken since the grandchildren were born ! I
We had a great week at Derekâs house. There was plenty of space inside for everyone. We used the futons as beds for the kids. Having 2 inside entertainment rooms was great, the children could watch a movie or play a game in the back room and the adults could be chatting in the main living room. Proximity to the beach is great, about a 7 minute walk, we used a wagon so the 3yo didnât have to walk. We preferred the beach to the left of the main Roger Wheeler beach, it was slightly less crowded. The yard space is limited and we didnât utilize it as much as we could have, but we did enjoy the screened porch. There was a beach wagon, umbrella and 8ish beach chairs. The outside shower is nice to rinse off the salt/sand. A previous beach house weâve stayed in had a hand held shower head in the outside shower which was nice for a quick foot rinse and for the little kids- could be a nice addition. Kitchen is well stocked, we brought foil pans for muffins and casseroles and a crockpot for easy meals. The large dining table with additional seating in the kitchen made family meals easy. There are 5 parking spots at the house, we parked a car in Galilee one night near the ferry, very easy and close. Derek was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to all questions.
This beautiful home was everything we expected and more. The bedrooms were cozy and well decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked so I was able to make all of my family's favorite meals. We were also fortunate we had beautiful weather and could walk daily to the beach to enjoy the views. Very rare for November. We were there to spend time with my 1 son who attends URI which was only a 15 minute drive to campus. If it was the summer, they had ample beach chairs and a cart to bring your items to the beach. The furnished screened in porch was also a wonderful bonus. We would most definitely rent this home again. Check in was easy and the owner allowed us to check in early due to our long drive. Extremely accommodating. I met some of the neighbors and they were all super friendly to me and my family. Great neighborhood for folks of all ages. It was a wonderful weekend with my family and friends. Thank you so much for opening your home to us.
The entire family enjoyed out stay. Everything was as described online, the owner was responsive to questions, and I would recommend the house to anyone.
Walk to just about everything. Short walk to Sand Hill Cove Beach (Roger Wheeler Beach), walk to Iggy's Doughboys, Ice Cream, Aunt Carries, Pizza and many more. Great location to stay and walk to just about everything you need.
