Wonderful, accommodating hosts.Quiet location with easy access to the beautiful Sachuest Point. Several restaurants within walking distance.We will definitely return.
Joan was attentive and genuinely helpful. Marty also greeted us warmly. What stood out most was Joanâs graciousness throughout our stay, from the thoughtful details in the cottage to her kind assistance during and afterwardâtruly the mark of a host who goes the extra mile. The cottage sits kittyâcorner to the main house with a small patio space outside. From the patio, there is a view into the main house, but Joan was very thoughtful about drawing her shades whenever we were out, offering us an added sense of privacy. Inside, the space is comfortable and functional. The electric skylight helps with cooling and with gas stove top venting, which we found useful to also refresh the space. The bathroom is nicely appointed and quite compact, accommodating one person at a time. The large closet with the ceiling-to-wall mirrors adds to the sense of spaciousness.The kitchen is well-suited for quick breakfasts and light meals, although we did more. Both beds were comfortable, without sags. The loft bed is set directly on the floor, accessed by very sturdy steps (not stairs but also not a ladder) with solid handrails that help one duck into the loft space. The ceiling fan seemed close when descending, but it never caused trouble; we preferred having the fan off during descent. Helpful additional photos: loft bed itself, view from top of railed steps downward to show fan and kitchen and apex, interior of second door with railed steps in front, new grill, bathroom.
This cottage is perfect for a single person or a couple looking to be close to Newport but in a quiet and relaxing neighborhood. It is a short walk to 1st beach and a few restaurants and shops and a 10 minute drive to downtown Newport. Joan is lovely and very accommodating. I will definitely be back!
We had the most amazing stay! Joan is a wonderful host. We canât wait to return next year. We had everything we needed and enjoyed long walks every night along the water!
This space was absolutely perfect for two dad- aged guys. Joan made the check in process seamless, and was proactively communicating prior to arrival to make sure we were on the same page. I was greeted by Marty upon arrival, a delightful and friendly cat who had coffee with me in the morning. The cottage was clean, had dishes, a full fridge, and a gas stove. There was also a Kurig for coffee with plenty of pods. We are quiet people and appreciated the quiet neighborhood, but the beach and cliff walk are a five minute walk from the stay.
Great little cottage, perfect for our stay. Many interesting things to explore on foot and easy access to the more "touristy" areas by car. Don't forget to pet the cat.
We had the good fortune to stay in this charming cottage while we were in Middletown for a family wedding. From the booking process till checkout, the experience was excellent. Joan and Tony were warm and gracious and shared fascinating stories about the propertyâs history. The unit itself is fantastic! Immaculate. comfortable, and quiet are only three of the adjectives that describe this slice of paradise. We hope to return some day. Thank you both for sharing your space with us!
The cottage is definitely cozy! The loft space is only for the young and nimble, but for two people, the ground level is totally sufficient. The one thing I would have liked is an indoor eating table. There is an outside patio table, but it was too chilly and windy to use it for eating. We used the narrow, low coffee table instead. It worked. We stayed for 10 days.
This was such a cozy place to stay! Much closer to Newport than we realized, which was great! Very walkable and plenty to do in the area. One of those places youâd want to visit again. Joan was an attentive host!
This cottage was just what I needed for a quiet 3-day getaway. Tucked in a peaceful residential area near the beaches and close to Sachuest Point, it offered a great mix of comfort and location. The space was clean, cozy, and had a welcoming feel. What stood out most was how thoughtful the owner was (water in fridge and coffee pods ready for the next morning) and checking in to make sure everything was going well, which really added a personal touch. Itâs a perfect spot to recharge and to be so close and convenient to all that Newport and Middletown have to offer. I look forward to staying stay here again!!
Property is exactly as it appears on the vrbo site. Joan was so easy and a delight, she thought of everything in this adorable studio. Clean, comfortable, quiet neighborhood-easy access to downtown Newport. Lovely beaches to explore close by. It was just outstanding!!
Thank you, Joan for sharing your lil spot, wonderful start to our 25th anniversary trip!
We stayed in this cozy cottage for three nights to attend our nieces wedding. It is close to all the Newport activities. It was so nice to come back to a clean, comfortable, quiet home every day! The host that we met was such a lovely lady. Weâll have to come back to Middletown and stay in this cottage more often in the future!
I highly recommend staying here! Itâs clean, easy to check in/out and the host is friendly & helpful. The cottage is located minutes from the beach and is a short drive to all that Newport has to offer.
Really fitted our requirements . Very accurate description.
Excellent accommodation. Perfect description. was equipped with everything needed for 3-4 day stay.

Geat Hospitaliy. Looking forward to our return visit
Joan was incredibly kind and gracious with all the details of her property. My two teens had said it was the best location and loved the coziness. A wonderful little getaway for us.
What a delightful charming, Cottage. Location was Phenomenal. I felt like I was a fairytale such a Quaint ,cute Cottage Not to mention it was immaculate. Everything looks brand new and sparkling. The bed was comfortable.. Our host was such a charming lady, very loving and accommodating above and beyond. thanks so much .
My husband and I stayed for a week in this cozy cottage. Joan was welcoming and helpful in every way, the interior is pleasantly decorated and very well maintained, as is the rest of the property. The kitchen had enough pots and utensils to cook basic meals every day. The bed was comfortable and the sheets were even ironed, better than most hotels or rentals, and the rate is more convenient.The bed in the loft is more suitable for a young person, because there is no room to stand up. The side door leads to a beautifully landscaped area with garden table and chairs, there's also a BBQ grill. The neighborhood is a summer vacation postcard. Overall, great stay.
The cottage was perfect for our needs - a college roommate was joining me for a portion of the stay and having two separate sleeping areas worked very well. The kitchen was great for a quick morning breakfast. Beds were comfortable and the cottage was well-appointed. Loved the little patio off the side with a little view of the water. Location is excellent as we were able to take a walk along the water and up to Flo's Clam Shack, Bottega Bocconi cafe, Rejects Beer Co. taproom, and Diego's Cantina all on Aquidneck Ave. Downtown Newport is a 5-7 minute drive away, making this a great spot away from the crowds during the busy season. Joan was a great host, checking in from time to time to ensure we had what we needed. Would be perfect for a couple or even a family of 3.
