Charming cottage with short drive to the beach or the city!

Cora's Cottage was built by my husband, Kenny's grandfather Harry and is named for Harry's wife, Cora. We love this sweet cottage, it is so warm and welcoming - your home-away-from-home. A large eat-in kitchen provides a bright space for preparing meals, playing board games or planning your day. The portable dishwasher will make clean-ups easy! And to smooth wrinkles in your traveling clothes there is a full-sized ironing board and steam iron provided for your use. Two coffee makers (one Mr. Coffee and one single-cup brewer), blender and microwave are provided. A grill is available for outdoor bar-b-ques. A screened front porch makes a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or a bug-free respite on a nice evening. Parking for your car on the premises or just a short walk to the bus stop for transportation to the beaches or the capital city and all points in-between! Historic Wickford and East Greenwich are within minutes for great dining and shopping. Or if you want to take a little longer trip, the "Fast Ferry" to Martha's Vineyard is close by and historic Newport is within a half-hour drive for fabulous dining, scenery and tours of the Gilded Age Mansions! Our capital city, Providence offers terrific night life with "Water Fire", museums, theater and great restaurants! If your stay is work related, the second bedroom can serve as an office, with a writing desk, wifi and printer provided.

The house sleeps up to four (4) people. The main bedroom is spacious with a queen bed and windows for light and fresh air. The second bedroom sleeps two with a day-bed that can be configured as two twins or joined together to make a "king" bed for a couple. The cottage is sunny and bright with lots of windows. Room-darkening blinds are provided on all the windows. A large air conditioner cools the whole house quite well, but a smaller window air conditioner is provided in the main bedroom as well to assure your comfort.

There is a large, sunny back yard that includes a large vegetable garden. The flowering plants and the vegetable garden are maintained by the owners who live on the adjacent property. If we have a good growing season, a wonderful Rhode Island tomato may be in your future! We look forward to your arrival!

Cora's Cottage is a non-smoking property.

Comfortable Cottage in great location

Ruth and Kenny are great hosts; very friendly and kind but also very mindful about leaving us to our privacy and space. The grounds are pretty and the cottage is homey, clean, and well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would re-book if we visit the area again.

Charming property, Great Hosts & Location

We loved our stay with Kenny and Ruth. They are lovely hosts and the cottage is so cute and clean, and incredible history of the cottage construction by Kenny's grandfather. We found the cottage centrally located for all our interests, close to the bike path and Calf Pasture Beach, Audubon centers, and nature trails. Would definitely stay here again :)

Wonderful, perfect for us!

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at Cora's Cottage. It was comfortable, cozy, and relaxing there. Our hosts were more that gracious in attending to our needs. Ruth and Ken made our stay memorable. Thank you to both of them

Great stay at Cora’s Cottage

Comfortable and clean. The 4 of us had a great time in Rhode Island. This home has everything you need and the hosts go beyond to make you comfortable. It’s a small house with room for all. Thank you Ruth and Kenny.

Wonderful experience at a cozy, coastal inspired cottage

We arrived early and contacted our host to ask if we could check in early. She gladly accommodated our request and welcomed us an hour early. When we checked in, we found a eat off the floor clean house with fast working internet, multiple televisions, a fully stocked bathroom, complete with many towels, face cloths, soap, Q Tips, masks, makeup removers. There was everything and anything one could think of! The kitchen had coffee, muffins and orange juice so we did not have to rush out to buy anything for morning one upon arriving to the property. And there was plenty of ice in the freezer. Beds are very comfortable. Furniture is better quality than you would find in a hotel. The yard is large and very private. Our dog loved running around and fetching his ball in the back yard. The hosts are super nice people, which made our stay very special. I would highly recommend this property to an individual, a couple or a small family. I don't think you could be disappointed staying here.

Cora’s Cottage

Cora’s Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. The home has everything you might need to include a screened in porch and a large backyard. The property is centrally located in Rhode Island and close to beaches. Kenny and Ruth live next door and are the best property managers and neighbors you could ever have. They are both very communicative and ensure that you have everything you need every step of the way…to include going above and beyond by providing a small continental breakfast and coffee for your first morning and veggies from their garden if in season. We loved the home and Ruth and Kenny so much we came back for a second stay! Highly recommend!!
