Quiet oasis minutes from beaches, vineyards and downtown Newport

*****PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN MIDDLETOWN 1.5 MILES FROM MIDDLETOWN BEACHES AND NEWPORT!*****

The guest house has been recently renovated throughout and newly furnished. Several antique pieces give the home a historic flavor. A large yard with beautiful landscaping and gardens create a very peaceful setting, making meals on the deck most enjoyable. A hammock or bench provide a lazy place for a book or a nap.
Located in a country setting just minutes from Middletown's miles of beaches (both surf and calm water). Your vacation could include bicycle rides on country roads passing vineyards, farmstands, beaches or a National Wildlife Refuge. Hiking is close by at the shore or in wildlife sanctuaries. Tennis courts and a walking track are directly across the street from your door. Owners live on the property and are available for suggestions regarding local activities.

Comfortable and quiet stay

Home is a lovely quiet spot away from the bustle of Newport, only a short drive. After busy days of seeing the sites, escape the crowds and relax here. The back porch has a great view of the yard, perfect for morning coffee or evening glass of wine. Jack is a terrific host and is happy to provide recommendations for anything you need in the area.

Jack was a gracious host and had a wonderful property. There was plenty of space for everyone to sleep. The kitchen was fully stocked and the grounds were very well maintained and beautiful. We would definitely rent again if it were pet friendly.

Our favorite vacation

"Quiet oasis minutes from beaches, vineyards and downtown Newport" describes this property perfectly! It is peaceful and the yard is absolutely beautiful - we really enjoyed our time in the backyard... walking around, sitting on the bench, listening to the birds, and playing Pictionary. Everything you may need is available here, including awesome suggestions for local/nearby excursions from the host! We hope to return to this quiet oasis some day!

Felt like home

It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and close to everything we wanted to see. The hosts were available without being intrusive, full of good information, and treated us like friends. As someone else mentioned, the air conditioners were very loud, but we came on a record hot week. The private yard was a bonus. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck watching hummingbirds in the flowers.

Newport Wedding - June 2024

The pictures on this site do not give the true impressions of this beautiful, cozy, clean and overall most relaxing home. Everything was perfect. Completely enjoyed sitting on the deck, quiet, relaxing beautiful landscape. Jack was so accommodating, even with all the stress for me planning this trip including flight delays and my daughters broken leg. The only thing that would have made this stay better is if we could have stayed longer. Close to busy Newport, but not to far to enjoy the peace and quiet. Thank you Jack and Deb for allowing us to stay in your VRBO. Hope to see you both again.

Perfect Stay in Wonderful, Spotless Accommodations

This huge space was perfect in every way, hosted by a lovely couple, Jack and Deb, who communicated with me beforehand and even welcomed us a bit early and made our entire stay so enjoyable. The two bedrooms are great for couples, families, or extended families, or even a girlfriend-getaway. There is plenty of room to spread out. Sliding glass doors open from the kitchen onto a huge deck and gorgeous yard with many beautiful plantings and bird houses. Proximity to Newport, if that's your intention, is very easy. It was very, very clean and also had everything one would need to enjoy a comfortable stay. After leaving, Jack was kind enough to phone that he found a watch we'd inadvertently left behind, which was very much appreciated. Thank you both. We loved our time with you and I would enthusiastically recommend your property to anyone.

College drop off

Although the property was lovely, the location was surprisingly central, and the convenience was top notch, I am not used to staying in a property where the owner also lived. I felt like we were being watched most of the time. Also, after making the initial reservation, I spoke with the host to add on a day, which he said would be no problem...however, at the time of check in I was told that it would not be possible...so there I was without a place to stay for our last night. I had to scramble to find another place, on Labor Day weekend, during URI move in weekend. It was chaos.

location was perfect - close to everything but still far enough away that it was a nice quiet place to chill. Jack and Deb were the best hosts, gave great local recommendations - yoga on the beach, street festival in town, local seafood joint nearby etc. We had a great time and would def stay there again!
