This house is perfect for large groups. Close drive to Newport which was great for us. Only concerns were 3 king beds on the 3rd floor with no proper air conditioning or fans. This made the third floor almost unusable in the summer.
Also, the washing machine leaked a lot of water while we were there. Other than that, itâs a typically older home that can accommodate large groups.
The property was convenient for all wedding activities that took place in Portsmouth as well as the beach in Newport. Unfortunately the house is located on a very busy highway that created road noise at all hours of the day as well as a commercial business next door.
We had a great time and there was plenty of room and so many beds to choose from! The living room is a great hangout spot, and loved that there were multiple outdoor decks to sit at!
What a great place! Comfortable and large enough for a big group to spread out. We enjoyed a long weekend to celebrate a birthday and NYE. Hot tub was perfect too! Weâd stay again!
We came to town for an annual golf trip. The house was exactly what 14 of us guys were looking for. The hot tub and pool table were a hit and there were more than enough beds for everyone. Chris was very responsive and helpful.
We were a group thirteen adults here for a family wedding. There was plenty of beds for everyone. We enjoyed gathering in the den area and on the deck for games and conversation. The hot tub was a hit with several members. Overall, we had a great and memorable trip there.
Rented for the full family to stay. Was hosting a bridal shower at the vineyard and family came from out of town. Hot tub and pool table were a hit and proximity to venue was awesome!
Several of my high school friends and I celebrated our 46th reunion at Chris's house. The house is huge and extremely comfortable. It's a great place for a group to stay. The house has a large yard and parking area and three decks for lounging. We didn't try the hot tub but it was available for us. It's fifteen minutes to downtown Newport. It is on a main road, so the rooms in the front can be a little loud if you leave the windows open. The only issue we had was that there was a pesky mouse in the kitchen. This is an old farmhouse, so that's not totally unexpected. The house was spotless otherwise. We'd stay there again.
We were a multigenerational group of 14 plus a toddler coming into Newport from different states for the half marathon. Some were running, others were cheering. This house worked out perfect for us. It is not easy to find a reasonable priced house big enough to fit our group and this house was great. The bedrooms were big with King size beds. There was a bathroom on each floor. The main level had an open area kitchen, dining room and living room which gave us plenty of room to enjoy each other's company. We had intended to eat lunch and breakfast in the house and go out to dinner but the open space was so nice, we just stayed in for dinners also. The yard and decks are beautiful and the pool table and the hot tub were great extras. Any questions I had from Chris were answered very quickly. It was a great way to spend time with family and friends!
Perfect location near my brother. House was very big and the first floor was open that made getting together with all the family very easy. Kids loved the big driveway outback where they could ride their easy rollers. Plenty of space for all of us from great granny down to two 1-year-olds. Had a wonderful time!
We rented the home for a few days for my sisterâs bachelorette party. The location was perfect for what we needed - 10 minutes from second beach, and a 15 minute uber to downtown Newport. It was exactly what we wanted without being right in downtown. Reasonably priced for the busy season. The pictures honestly do not do it justice, itâs a beyond cool and beautiful home. There was more than enough space for all of us and had everything we needed. Owners were very responsive and easy to work with, had pretty much one rule that was more than reasonable and only asked for respect of their property. Beyond amazing experience and highly recommend the home and the owners to any prospective renters!
Our wedding party stayed in June 2019. The property is well maintained and clean. The check-in process was very easy! There was plenty of space for our party to enjoy themselves. It was close to our venue and not far from downtown Newport or any attractions in Middletown/Portsmouth.
The only issue we ran into was the lack of pillows in the house. Each king bed had two flat pillows, while the queen and twin each had one. Unfortunately, there were no other pillows in the house.
We had a great time in the space otherwise!
There was plenty of space for our entire party to stay the whole weekend. Unbelievable location right down the street from the beach. I would definitely stay here again.
