Every year just gets better and better. Love the town of Wakefield and the close proximity to the beach but far enough away from the crowd if you want some quiet time. Excellent hosts and a beautiful , cozy home. Can’t wait for next year,
This is our third year staying here and this house is beautiful, truly one of a kind. The location is ideal for us, being away from crowds but in close proximity to plenty of amenities and only a short drive to the beach. The owners are amazing, very responsive and they go above and beyond to make sure you’re enjoying your stay and have everything you need. My girls love having the upstairs level to themselves and the yard is perfectly sized for them to play. It’s such a great rental!
This is our second year staying and it was just as wonderful as the first! The property is in a great location close to lots of shops and restaurants. The house has great amenities and is very clean and well maintained. Looking forward to next year!
Lisa's home was perfect for our two young kids over the course of a month. It truly felt like a home away from home. Clear throughout, with fully stocked kitchen. We never felt like we needed anything for the entire stay. If we needed anything, Lisa was super responsive by text and communicated throughout. We would stay again!
A good home base for travels in the Newport/Wakefield/Narragansett RI area. Near historic town, with good food and ice cream. Well equipped home, including stand mixer, herbs, pots and pans supply, utensils, paper products and more. Decorating makes it feel uber cozy.We were there for a Boomer generation reunion of 7 of us. It was a little tricky getting in (some stairs and narrowish doorway), but I addressed this with the owners. They are really easy to contact and work with.We spent large portions if time gathered in the living room watching old family movies and having spirited discussions. I recommend this property for a family gathering or as a home base for local exploration and discoveries.
Our stay was amazing! The house accommodated our family well, giving us space as well as places to gather. The location was ideal-proximity to varied places of interest for all. Lisa and Steve are the best hosts we have ever had for Vrbo vacations- friendly, accommodating and thoughtful.
Thank you!!!
First time staying here. Our graduation celebration week was made very comfortable at this house. Will definitely try to stay here again! We were all very happy with the spacious, well-lit and thoroughly stocked house. Plenty of parking too. We were treated to a large welcome basket of snacks and wine. Thank you!This was a no-contact check-in went smoothly. Never saw host, but our texts were responded to fairly quickly for questions. Spotlessly clean rooms and comfy beds made it great to sleep. Quiet neighborhood with nice yard and deck to relax. Very close to south beaches. We did not use any of their beach gear except some chairs for a track meet. They could use a bit of WD40. The AC was very efficient when needed. Everyone complimented me on choosing such a nice place. Glad I chose it too! Thank you for your lovely house and hospitality. Marianne
With all sincerity, I can honestly say that this was the best vacation rental that I've ever stayed in. They provide all necessities and then some. The house is immaculate. My family and I will definitely be renting it again next year! Thank you so much Lisa and Steve for your generosity and hospitality.
This is our second year staying at the Allen House and it was just as good, if not better, than the first! Lisa and Steve go out of their way to make you feel like their personal guests. The house is also incredibly comfortable and has anything you might possibly need for a great vacation. We especially love all of the beach items-- boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc. We cannot wait to come back again next summer!
Our family considers this spot in Wakefield Rhode Island our summer home! It is 10 minutes to Scarborough or Narragansett Beach and it is five minutes from downtown Wakefield. Both of which my family of all ages enjoy tremendously. The house is absolutely adorable and very well maintained. it is spotless when we arrive and has everything we need. Honestly, I just can’t imagine a summer without a stay on Allen Street.
Look no further. This house is amazing. So cozy, very clean, and has everything you need! Great location- walking distance with sidewalks to downtown and bike path. The homeowners made you feel very welcome and were just a text away if you needed anything. Would highly recommend it!
The property was very cozy. We were traveling around surrounding states and the location was convenient no matter where we went. After long days of traveling it was nice to come home to this property for some rest and family time playing games and watching movies.
We appreciated the quality, cleanliness, and comfort of this beautiful south county home. Lots of thoughtful little extras that were a treat for these tired parents vacationing with three kids under 12. From welcome snacks to bubbles to bug spray, we had everything we needed. AC is actually ductless, not central, but it kept us nice and cool all the same. The beach supplies were wonderful. Thank you and we hope to return in the future!
We had an awesome time at this beautiful home. We have been renting in South County for 13 years and this house was definitely top notch. The owners were very friendly and responsive and went above and beyond to provide everything we could possibly need. The house was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The deck/yard was perfect for my girls to play and for us to relax. I would definitely recommend!!
We had another amazing vacation on Allen Street. The house is clean, has a wonderful layout, and is very nicely decorated. It is also well-equipped and comes with an abundance of welcome treats. Lisa and Steve have thought of everything! We hope to go back again next summer! Thank you so much!
Our family stayed at the Allen House for two weeks this summer and had an amazing stay. When it comes to this vacation rental, the owners have truly thought of everything! We were greeted with two bountiful gift baskets-- the perfect surprise after a long day of traveling. The home was clean and beautifully decorated and included everything we needed for a fun beach vacation. The drive to the beach is quick and easy, and we loved being able to escape the crowds and come back to our little relaxing haven each day. Wakefield is also super cute and has lots of little stores and restaurants to check out. I would highly recommend this home to anyone vacationing in RI and hope to stay here again in the future!
2nd year renting this house and I’m hopeful we can rent again next summer. It’s perfect for us and close enough to everything we enjoy doing as a family. Love it
Our family of five adults had a wonderful week at this great, spacious house! It is updated beautifully, very clean, and had all the necessities (and more) supplied.
Our stay at the Allen House was perfect. Steve and Lisa went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed, and the house was clean, roomy, and so relaxing.
The house is a short and easy 7-8 minute drive to the beaches in Narragansett and a very leisurely, short, and beautiful walk to downtown Wakefield. We especially loved being able to walk downtown to the ice cream shop and apothecary/soda fountain each day and sitting outside in the picturesque backyard each morning and evening. This house is an absolutely wonderful place to stay! Thank you, Steve and Lisa!
We chose this property because it looked so peaceful and we wanted space for everyone. The pictures were right on the money. It was exactly as pictured and it was a vibe for sure. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and will be back. It was centrally located to shops, restaurants and beaches all within 15-30 minutes depending on what you are looking for. The owners thought of every detail from a fully equipped kitchen right down to the spices to all the beach items needed for a day at the beach. We celebrated my daughter’s high school graduation with a trip to RI with close family, and could not have asked for a more wonderful time. Thank you to the Walsh”s!!!
