Middletown Stay

Great location for both walking to main drag and beach, and ease of getting into Newport. Upstairs bedrooms and bathrooms were very comfortable. Unfortunately the basement was unusable as it was too musty. Kitchen needed pot holders and DW detergent.

Easy access to the beach and to Newport. Great place for us and 5 of our kids. Enjoyed the games and air hockey table. Plenty of outdoor sitting areas to enjoy the cool RI breezes. Host was very communicative before or throughout our trip. Definitely recommend!

Our On Island get away

This property was lovely and worked well for us. Ideally situated within a short walk to the beach and downtown Middletown, we could all easily manage our own agenda. I loved the 2 living areas to give us some extra space with the kids and we hung in the private and relaxing backyard often. Beautifully decorated and it had everything we needed. Todd and Monica were easy to work with and we really enjoyed our stay here!

The perfect hideaway

My friends and I were in town for a wedding and our home away from home was the perfect location to reconnect, relax and recover from the festivities. Everyone commented on its charm and comfort. I can’t wait to come back soon!

We had a great experience from start to finish! The owner responded to our request that we could not find a frying pan by leaving one on the front step the next day! We loved the fire pit for night time s’mores and hope to return again if in the area.

Enjoyable stay

We stayed in the house for a week and the house was great for our family (includes 3 girls 11 to 15). The kitchen and bathrooms are new, and we had beds for everyone. Star of the house is the back yard with a deck that had a seating area and new grill where we ate every night. We also used the patio with firepit for smores on more than one occasion. Washer/Dryer were big and able to handle our towels. There were plenty of chairs and an umbrella, a couple of boogie boards and a wagon for the beach. Bring an extra umbrella if you usually use more than one. Bonus was a hammock that was well used. There are cleaning supplies everywhere and we had no issues with the cleanliness of the house or feeling that we were exposed to COVID. In the stores and town it seemed everyone was masked and social distancing. We ate in restaurants a few times, went tot he auto museum, and sat on the beach and at no times felt at risk. It is obvious the house is well cared for, updated, and has everything a family needs. The house is centrally located and has easy access to beaches, stores, restaurants and Newport. It sits between 1st and 2nd beach. 1st beach has parking for visitors but 2nd does not. I was able to drop the family at 2nd beach, drive home then jog the 1.5 mile to the beach. It is shaded most of the way and I saw a number of other folks doing the same. The cliff walk starts at 1st beach so we combined a day at the beach with the walk. There is a Cumberland Farms down the street, Stop n Shop / Shaws (i recommend the latter as it is much bigger) for food shopping and liquor stores within an easy drive. It was easy to communicate with the owners and they answered any questions we had quickly.

Wonderful vacation in a wonderful house

I have always been hesitant to rent a house from, but due to covid we needed to find a vaction that felt safe. The house was perfect for our family needs and the location was awesome. We loved how we could walk to the beach, the cliff walk and the town of Newport. Moncia and Todd were always available for any questions that we had and were happy help us with suggestions for restaurants. Hoping we can go back next summer!

This home is nicely decorated, well cared for and has everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay. The location is convenient to beaches, restaurants, mansions and downtown Newport and is in quiet neighborhood. The owners are extremely responsive and checked in throughout our stay.

Everything you need for a perfect Newport Vacatiom

This house was great! It had enough room for 8 people to easily fit without feeling like we were on top of each other. Closer to all the beaches and Newport attractions. Todd and Monica were very responsive and great to work with. All you have to bring is clothes and food and this house brings the rest. We look forward to booking again next year!

30 Year Anniversary Vacation Middletown was close to everything beaches and Newport!

We loved the house! The flower arrangement, card, and gift basket were such a pleasant surprise when we entered. Everything we needed was there.......fire pit, grill, fabulous deck where we ate all our meals, well stocked kitchen, anything and everything for the beach. The house was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. The downstairs provided room for the kids to have their own space and there was more than enough room for the five of us. We loved that it was in a nice, quiet area only a short distance to the beaches and Newport! We fell in love with the area and all its beauty. Monica and Todd were so gracious and helpful. Any question was promptly answered and we knew if we needed anything they would take care of it! They helped to make our thirty year anniversary perfect!! To the people of Middletown and Newport, thank you for making these Tennesseans feel so welcomed in your beautiful state! It was our first visit to the New England area, and our first impression was that you are very kind, gracious people. Thank you all for a memorable vacation!! The Manker Family Adams, TN.

This is a terrific property with terrific owners.

Our family gathered at Todd & Monica's place for 3 weeks this past summer (2016) and the house was great. The location is a good balance between closeness to 1st, 2nd and 3rd beaches, ease of getting downtown, and the quiet of a residential neighborhood. The house was immaculate on our arrival. Although the kitchen is compact, there is probably no utensil or cookware that any chef would want that wasn't there. In general, the house was incredibly well equipped. Plenty of towels. Not only were there a variety of beach toys, chairs, wagons, etc. waiting for us in the garage, but also lawn games. When I had a few questions about where to find or how to operate something, Todd or Monica got back to me almost instantly and solved my problem. With 2 seniors and 2 pre-schoolers, we always drove the 3 minutes to the beach. Really is lots of parking, but back yard sitting area too. Outdoor shower a big plus. The deck off the kitchen was a favorite spot for meals under the umbrella. "In law suite" on lower level is spacious, with TV, full bath, microwave, even an air-hockey table which got extensive use. My only hesitation about giving this good a review is that it might make it harder for us to book this house again next summer.
