This "Island Secret" is nestled only 900 feet from the Jamestown's most popular swimming beach, "Mackerel Cove" where you can peak at several summer "cottages" along the rugged cove leading to the open Atlantic ocean. You will unwind in the luxury and total privacy of this new "Coastal Cottage Loft" situated adjacent to our main house among mature landscaping, magnificent cedar trees, huge rhododendron and other beautiful plantings.
Up a single flight of stairs, is the completely private entrance to The Loft. You will enjoy both a Queen Bedroom and a convenient, Twin-Bed Bedroom. Each with its own private entrance, a large HD TV. The bedrooms share a full kitchen and bathroom as well as a magnificent private outdoor shower. (Please Note that VRBO calls this shower a "Half-Bath"). There is also a separate private driveway with parking for two cars.
A special feature of our location is the ability to take a 3 minute walk to the Town Beach at Mackerel Cove where parking is restricted. Our Coastal Cottage Loft offers our guests a peaceful and serene experience providing a unique privacy of being set back from the road on a half-acre site with stunning and mature landscaping of exotic trees and plantings. This historic island location, just across from renowned Newport with its picturesque, farms and dramatic coastline will relax, memorize and enchant you.
For your protection and peace of mind, we will secure your "Booking" by forwarding, a rental agreement confirming your dates and other important information. It will require obtaining your email address as well as a copy of your driver license or state issued ID card.
Jamestown is one of Rhode Island's best kept secrets. It is an idyllic, peaceful coastal gem with historic farms, stunning parks, award-winning restaurants, locally owned shops and art galleries. An ideal summertime retreat, Jamestown is located directly across the bay from Newport, RI and surrounded by the cool, clear waters of Narragansett Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy a scenic walk to Jamestown's Town Center revealing the beautiful, picturesque harbor and marina with the iconic Newport Bridge in the background. From the Harbor, you can view all of the beautiful boats and private yachts, stroll to several restaurants and shops and Jamestown's own Brewery. Of course you can take a short ride on the Jamestown-Newport Ferry across the bay to Newport with Hop-On Hop-Off stops at the Rose Island Lighthouse, Fort Adams, the downtown Ann Street Pier and Perrotti Park. This is the most convenient and pleasurable way to access Newport while avoiding bridge tolls and the hassle of locating parking downtown.
While on the Ferry, enjoy a cool cocktail and experience an unforgettable tour of Newport Harbor, the famous summer home to magnificent yachts from around the world. Of course no visit is complete without a walk along Bellevue Avenue to visit its many quaint shops and view or tour the historic mansions built by the industrialist tycoons of the "Gilded Age".
