The absolutely perfect place to stay for a relaxing summer getaway. We enjoyed coffee each morning on the upper deck, the town beach during the day and drinks at The Mist in the evening. Wish our stay was longer!

Cute house! Biggest downfall is the walls are paper thin so you can hear EVERYTHING the neighbors are doing or saying. I understand it's a shared house but stepping over the neighbors boogie boards, e scooters, and bags every time we had to leave wasn't fun. So keep that in mind that it's very, very shared when you're booking.

Perfect spot for a getaway in a great beach community

Matunuck is a special place near and dear to my heart and this little property was perfect for what I was looking for. If you haven't been and are looking for a summer New England getaway for a couple, small family, or group of friends, I couldn't recommend this enough. Cute, clean and comfortable, it offered us everything we needed for our stay. I would 100% book again, and hopefully for a longer stay next time!

Great spot!

We booked this stay to see a concert at Ocean Mist. The proximity to the venue was great. The little beach area walking distance away was lovely. The house was clean and a perfect 1 bedroom place for a couples weekend away. Only about 20-30 minutes from downtown Newport which was really fun to explore as well. Will definitely stay here again.

Birthday Beach Vacation

It was lovely! Very cute, everything we needed. Comfortable for 2 of us, not sure i would try to fit more than 3 people. Location is perfect! Beautiful walk to beach access. Decks are great for coffee, dinner, or just enjoying the sea breeze or sunrise/sunset. Good value!

Rhode Island find in Matunuck

The rooms seemed more spacious in real life than they did on the photos. We loved the marsh in the back yard. It gave a feeling of privacy. We would be happy to return.

Everything we needed

Great location, the unit had eveything we needed. Little boat launch the next street over for our 9.5 ft inflatable to go exploring. Great if youve got a dinghy or kayak. Walk to ocean mist for food and drinks. Lots of other close restaurants. Tak the drive to Dly Fox in Charlestown for breakfast Would stay again.

I found several problems with the unit. floors has significant slope; lights in kitchen didn't work; big step down to downstairs bathroom; drapes in bedroom were unworkable. On the positive side: nice location. We wouldn't stay in the unit again.

Beach house

Before i continue to express what i didn’t like the hostes tried to make things right. We had booked for 7 days and left after 3. The bedroom mattress was super hard to point my wife and i would not be able to sleep through the night. The closet doors were falling off the hinges. The second floor patio screen door fell off the track as soon as we opened it. There no normal size coffee cups so we went and bought some and donated them to the house. Great location if its a beach day otherwise not much to do in the immediate area.

Weekend getaway. We had a lovely stay. The layout of the first floor was cozy, yet spacious. Large bedroom with a private bath and balcony deck. Nicely decorated.

Just what we needed

This place was just what we needed. Location to everything in Mantunuck was within walking distance. Sitting on upper deck listening to the waves crash the shoreline, Potters Pond bounty of fresh clams, just the right amount of cooking items to put on a feast and how enjoyable that was. Cannot wait for next year. Host was great and very responsive to inquiries.

Spacious one bedroom Cottage

The condo was very clean, and spacious and charming. I loved both the upper deck that faces the street and Potter's Pond and and is an extension of the bedroom, and the lower small deck that extends from the lower floor's dining area. That lower deck houses the grill. The sunsets were beautiful from that deck. Meg the owner, was very responsive to all messages. One should be aware that sharing space with the other attached condo, while separated by slatted wood barriers, prohibits privacy. You will see and hear the other occupants if they are on those decks while you are. Additionally, I did find it noisy. I heard the other family talking, kids shouting, and also I could feel the vibrations and hear/feel the pounding of their feet as they moved around their attached condo. Furthermore, the description states it sleeps 3. There is a queen bed in the upper bedroom with a somewhat dilapidated futon couch in the same bedroom. We did not attempt to open the futon ,as it seemed complicated , heavy and the mattress in rough shape. The downstairs sectional couch is very comfortable to sit on, and I would imagine a child or small adult could sleep on that. It is not a pull out couch. So, a couple with a child could sleep there, but three platonic friends might find it difficult. I have rented numerous summer cottages and I did find the 4 pm check-in to be late( though I did get a message I could come earlier, at my request) and the 10 am check out to be very early. Also when you are coming from a distance and the cottage sleeps 3-- to only have 2 rolls of toilet paper, no kleenex, one roll of paper towels, etc., available does make it hard on travelers. Bringing everything is difficult and buying locally is expensive. When one is spending a lot of money to rent, it does feel inhospitable. For those reasons I would give it 4/5 stars. Otherwise, a very pretty and well placed cottage for your vacation-- very near to all beaches and I love Matunuck and have stayed there often. I'm afraid due to the privacy issue, I most likely would not stay here again.
