About this property

Views, views and more views from every room in Oceanside Home

From the moment you walk into the lofty, light-filled entrance hall of this contemporary solar home, you know you’re in a beautifully appointed ocean-front house, where nearly every room boasts a commanding view of Martha’s Vineyard, the Elizabeth Islands, Buzzard’s Bay, Horseneck and Goosewing Beaches and Little Compton’s legendary Town Beach.

You’ll feel right at home cooking up meals simple or lavish in the eat-in kitchen, complete with stylish cookware and dishware, upgraded appliances and everything you need in one well-organized space. The kitchen opens onto an expansive multi-level deck with gas grill, dining and lounging furniture, equally suitable for lively entertaining or a quiet tete-a-tete, bird-watching, surfer watching, boat spotting or just taking in breathtaking 180-degree panoramic views.

With walls of glass, the living and dining rooms capture those same stunning views, connecting you to surrounding land and seascapes no matter where you are. An open floor plan, handsome hardwood floors, a massive stone fireplace with gas insert, modern whole-house HVAC systems and beachy furniture make these spaces equally comfortable and practical whether lounging or hosting.

The house boasts two master bedrooms with king be plus two queen bedrooms. The top floor king master bedroom is a true hideaway. With a soaring cathedral ceiling, private cantilevered deck for star gazing or solitude, unparalleled views and half-bath, it is a place to wake up gently with the rising sun or sleep late with the sound of the ocean waves crashing on the rocks below. On the main floor, the Sea Shell master bedroom, adjacent to the main bathroom, features floor-to-ceiling operable windows for maximum light and views, king bed with Casper mattress and built-in closet. The cozy Sea Glass room also adjacent to the main bathroom features a queen bed. The upgraded full bath with 50's-themed decor is shared by the bedrooms.

Downstairs on the first floor, a large room with separate entrance opens to a natural pollinator area. A secluded path bisects the wildlife garden and leads to an outdoor fire-pot and seating area. Inside, the home office suite with more glorious views of the North Atlantic, features a convertible futon couch, queen bed, and full bathroom with double shower. With hi-speed Internet throughout the house, a working vacation at this location is always an option.

Getting to your private rock beach is easy with a convenient stairway leading to the water’s edge and featuring a landing, just big enough for two people to enjoy cocktails above the surf. And after dinner you can toast marshmallows with a campfire at the on the rocks.

In addition to wi-fi, the house comes complete with cable TV with streaming option. Sumptuous all-cotton linens, towels and beach towels are included in the rental price; each bed is appointed with multiple pillows, a cotton blanket and a down comforter and towels.

Inside the two-car garage you will find EV power for your electric vehicle. Linger in the garage to admire the fabulous murals painted by the original owner, Grandpa Beau Garreau.

This one-of-a-kind house is located a short walk to the Town Beach, biking distance to the charming Commons, Sakonnet Point and Sakonnet Lobster. Also nearby are Wishing Stone Farm Market, Walker’s farm market and eatery, Young’s nursery and roadside market. Lee’s Market, the locally owned gourmet supermarket in cozy Westport, is just up the road. On the weekends, no fewer than five farmers markets are open each spring and summer.

PLEASE NOTE: Zoning ordinances in Little Compton prohibit the rental of residential properties as wedding venues. We deeply regret any inconvenience.

Second year
Can’t beat the ocean view from this property. The owner was very responsive at check-in. Deck furniture is well worn, but the house is well suited for our family and is well stocked. Nice not to have to bring beach things - plenty of chairs, towels, toys, etc.

Great view!
This is an authentic beach house with an amazing view. It is a perfect starting point for a walk or a bike ride. We appreciated the games and especially the boogie boards! The beds are comfortable. There is an outside shower with a view of the ocean! Air conditioning was appreciated on the few days it was necessary. The kitchen is small but extremely well-supplied including a spice rack!

Gals weekend getaway
The four of us really enjoyed the quiet setting and spectacular water views from this house. We found it to be in a very remote setting and we wished for closer shopping and at least a few possible daytime activities (we were there in winter sperhaps warmer weather offers activities). In general, the furnishings were adequate with some items in need of updating and/or replacement. The gas fireplace is gorgeous and the mattresses were great. The kitchen seating was not large enough for the 4 of us so we needed to eat in the larger, open space living/dining area. If you're looking for crashing waves and walks in the sand at water's edge this is not the place for you. It is a rocky shoreline and since it is not set directly on the open Atlantic Ocean, there were no crashing waves. Certainly this home is geared more toward rental in the warmer seasons.

Incredible location, great for the holidays!
This perfect house had everything we needed for a wonderful family Christmas! A kitchen with all the necessary tools, gas fireplace, comfy beds and the most amazing view of the ocean we’ve had in all our years of renting. Adrienne answered any messages right away and check in/out was simple. We can’t wait to come back again!

Great stay at the shore
We had a great week by the water, sitting on the deck watching the waves roll in. The house was a nice set up for a one year old and the rest of the family. The yard was perfect for corn hole. The location was great with a short walk to South Shore Beach.

Best location in Little Compton
Unbeatable location, a short walk/drive from South Shore beach, with a dramatic cliffside view of the ocean, beach, and Martha's Vineyard in the distance. We had dinner every night on the lovely deck, conveniently located just off the kitchen (no steps!). The house is perfectly air-conditioned, a blessing during the hot summer weather. Can't wait to return!

Wonderful view
Classic beach house with a beautiful view of the ocean. The kitchen has everything you need for gourmet cooking, including an alphabetized spice rack! You can sit on the deck and listen to the waves or watch the sun rise. This is a great place for walkers, runners and bikers. The beach is less than a mile away, as is a local farm stand that also sells delicious bread . Little Compton has a good general store, cheap bike rentals and a coffee cafe. We felt very fortunate to spend a week here.

Wonderful house with amazing views of the ocean
My family and I fell in love with this house as soon as we stepped into the living room. The views are out of this world! We even saw dolphins two mornings in a row. There were lots of wonderful touches at the house too - like the nice fluffy towels! Adrienne was very quick with email replies and super helpful. We found the local area delightful. I highly recommend Art Cafe for coffee and the nicest staff. Groundswell for amazing croissants.

Beautiful views!
The owners provided everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. They were very responsive and accommodating. Since we stayed in December, we spent a lot of time indoors, preparing meals and and enjoying each other's company. The kitchen is very well equipped and the living area provides comfortable seating for 5. The LR, kitchen, and 3 of the 4 BRs have gorgeous views of the ocean. Puzzles and games are provided for down time entertainment. The area is ideal for long, pleasant walks.

About the host

Hosted by Adrienne Garreau

Host profile image
The Garreau house has been the family vacation home since 1953 when Beau Garreau built a modest two-bedroom bungalow for him and his wife and son. Joel grew up spending every summer leaping rock to rock along the edge of the water; clamming in Tunipus Pond and exploring the open fields and marshes around the house with his summer friends. In 1975 Beau and Glo expanded the house to its current size. Now, Joel and Adrienne live in Virginia but continued the family tradition of summer vacations in Little Compton, bringing the next two generations of Garreaus with them. Their two daughters grew up here also and, even though now busy with their own lives, they each come every year for some part of the summer. With the arrival in 2017 of Louis, a fourth generation of Garreaus is now enjoying summer vacations in Little Compton. Joel is professor emeritus attached to the office of the president at Arizona State University in Tempe. Adrienne works in community development in the county where they live in Virginia. When they are not in Virginia or traveling, they spend as much time as they can in Little Compton.
