My friends and I enjoyed staying at this property. One of the things we loved was that it was walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. The owner was easy to work with and we had a wonderful trip.

It is an absolutely amazing property. Clean, well-appointed, roomy, great location and awesome view. Everything was as advertised. It is obvious that the host takes pride in her property. The first two days we were there, it was pretty much ideal. When the upstairs guests showed up, it just wasn't the same. We really couldn't hear their voices even with the excitement of the NLCS going on except for a couple of times, but we could hear them whenever they walked around. The ceiling creaked quite a bit with their footsteps. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation!

This was a perfect location for us as my sister and her family were right next door. The grandkids had a fabulous time. The home was clean and well equipped. My only complaint or suggestions would be that the instructions for the downstairs were the same as the upstairs so there was a bit of confusion about who had what garage. Sharing the patio took some discussion with the upstairs renters as it’s not clear which property had which side of the patio, but we worked it out. Also the internet was pretty spotty. Since we were on vacation we should’ve not been on screens, but it was the olympics so trying to stream that was difficult. Perhaps a separate WiFi network for each floor would solve that? We have already booked this for next summer ! Can’t wait!

We rented this for my 80 year old mother who used to live in Newport but now is in the Northwest. This was the perfect location for her to get around the island. Sitting on the porch watching all the activities was the highlight. Pat was responsive to any needs she had over the 3 months we rented.
