Our trip was with 6 women for girls weekend!! The house was great. Plenty of beds, plenty of room to not feel crowded and we stayed on the deck crabbing. We would definitely come back again.

House was better than pictures showed. Very clean, great beds and linens. The house has a great layout, great for a large group, lots of space.
Very functional updated kitchen.
Owners are very responsive and accommodating.
Kayaked across the pond to our favorite Pvt beach.
Biked to Charlestown Breachway, Matunick, Greenhill beach and Charlestown Mini.
Hopped on the Ferry to BI for a self guided bike tour of the island. (Not recommended for recreational bikers)
Gathered lobster traps 1.5 miles off the coast with a haul of 16 lobster.
The house is a perfect location !

We had a wonderful time at this property for our family vacation (with adult children). The location is beautiful with access to so many activities. The welcome book is very detailed, so READ IT when you check in. Communication with host was outstanding. The pond is so nice for kayaks (2 supplied and we brought 2 and a paddle board) and the crabs coming to the dock were so cool. The inside of the house is very very nice. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, appliances, plastic reusable cups and more. The dehumidifier that self pumps keeps the basement humid free. The cool breeze made for great sleeping weather. The bedrooms are well supplied as well with a fan for each room, comfy pillows, extra blankets. The yard is big enough for bocce. The outdoor seating options were terrific. We enjoyed walking to the tennis / basketball courts in the morning. The local beach great and boat launch too. We will definitely recommend to friends and hope to come back again. Thanks for an awesome vacation spot!

The house is lovely, and the view is gorgeous. Really appreciate the care the owners have taken with making the house welcoming and comfortable. It's thoughtfully updated with a vintage vibe, and the care and use instructions are some of the best and clearest we've seen anywhere.

The house was wonderful, and the setting was beautiful. It was warm when we arrived, but when we opened the windows the breeze cooled the house off immediately. The kitchen had everything we needed to enjoy big meals together. We had a great vacation. I highly recommend.

Wonderful location! The windows overlooking the saltpond make you feel like you're sitting outside. It rained the whole week we stayed but we didn't mind! We watched the water from the kitchen table and played monopoly! Amazing house!

Everything was perfect, it was exactly as described in the listing.
The house has everything you will need, the breath taking views, the PEACE and QUIET, the low maintenance of the house, (no anxiety/worries about having 6 adults and 2 children and a dog and it not being your house.) NO interference from the homeowner, so if we had to use one word…PERFECT

First off the location and views are just wonderful.
The house is large and comfortable. Had the best time kayaking around the pond. The Swans are A+. Paul the owner was easy to reach and very accommodating. Definitely planning on returning.

We had such an enjoyable mini-cation at this lovely cottage on Green Hill Pond! It was raining for our first two days, but we were right on the water and could watch all the birds swooping about, as we read our books. Wednesday and Thursday we had absolutely perfect weather - lots of sunshine and mid 60's. We were tempted to take out the kayaks, but took a number of enjoyable walks throughout the neighborhood and parks instead.
The house was very clean and had everything we needed (and more). There's nothing more enjoyable than having water views and we "soaked up" every moment. Our little cavalier spaniel also greatly enjoyed her stay. We definitely plan to return!!

We lucked out with perfect weather this week (warm during day, cool at night), which made the house comfortable with windows open and fans (no A/C), but could see how it could get pretty warm. Loved sitting on the deck each morning with a beverage, taking in the views and wildlife. Enjoyed kayaking, crabbing, beach nearby, fire pit and more. Quiet, friendly neighborhood. House was clean and spacious. Only mishap was with lockbox and slider screen, but owner was very responsive. We all enjoyed the time spent at this location, and those that dropped in to visit, didn't want to leave!

We really enjoyed our stay, the house was perfect for our family! The house, dock & views are absolutely stunning, especially when the family of swans are out feeding on the Pond. The locations was perfectly central for the activities we had planned. We especially appreciated the added kayaks, games, fire pit, etc that allowed us to make the most of our family time!

The house is large and comfortably fit our family. The pond access and dock were great for kayaking and paddle boarding. Neighbors were friendly. We hope to rent this house again as it was perfect for our family vacation.

Property was as described. While we did not have the best weather, the beauty of Green Hill Pond was stunning. A quick paddle over to the beach was always fun. The kids loved crabbing off the dock. We bought our dinghy with us which was a blast going around the pond. Evenings were spent around the fire pit with lots of laughter and memories made. In near by neighborhoods you have the Ocean Mist for a yummy breakfast. The Matunuck Oyster is amazing, make sure to make reservations well in advance. A huge plus was that we were able to bring our Lily (dog).

The view from the deck is amazing! Property is super clean. Only negative is that stairwell should be scraped and repainted because I got a splinter in the railing and mattresses could be updated. We had a wonderful time however. Highly recommend!

The owner made our stay lovely,from start to finish! She was friendly and you could tell she takes pride in her rental. The house was easy to access and immaculate!! The house does give a vintage feel, but honestly it was one of the nicest Vrbos I’ve been too. The neighborhood was quiet and the lake was just beautiful! I would return and would highly recommend to others!

We enjoyed our long weekend winter break here. It is a spacious home and we were very comfortable- including our dog. We were worried it may be cold due to all the windows, but it was very cozy even when the temps dropped into the teens.
The views are spectacular- we saw lots of wildlife, including Deer!
Highly recommend this house for a family getaway!

What a wonderful home! The lake was picture perfect (we were rewarded with three sunny, warm days in october) and access to the local beaches was aplenty. The house is accurately described without any surprises. The added lawn games stored in the garage made for a sunny saturday by the lake. Local fare at Breachway grill warranted two stops and the staff were very helpful with accommodating our toddlers. Would love to return for a future stay!

Amazing weekend away for my family and my mother, who was turning 70. She loves the ocean and this could not have been more beautiful, peaceful and serene. The property has stunning views, plenty of room and plenty to do right at the property. We would go back in a heartbeat!

The house has the perfect layout for a family vacation. It has a large space for eating together, and visiting together. Along with a separate living area downstairs. The bedrooms offer plenty of space and the two bathrooms (3 showers) gave us no worries or waiting. The deck facing the water was away from the bugs and gave us a great view of the salt pond. We used the kayaks provided at the house, brought our bikes and rode for easy rides to the beaches and stores. This is a great location and a vacation house.

We had 2 families with kids stay at this property and everyone loved it! The kayaks and croquet were a huge hit. The water view was the highlight, we loved watching geese, swans, and boaters out on the water. We had everything we needed and looking forward to staying there again!
