Exactly as described. I agree with all positive reviews posted. Neighborhood is a mix of permanent residents and vacation homes. Felt welcomed among all. Great location for exploring the Ocean State. Appreciate the affordability of the rental, too. Cleaning is required, which keeps the rate down. We found it clean; We left it clean; All was great. The only caution is that you must be able to walk upstairs to second level to enter/exit. We are very glad to have found this "cottage" and are grateful for the experience.

I stayed with my dog at Anita’s cottage for two weeks and it was exactly what I was looking for - the cottage is stocked with anything you might need, and while it’s a bit of a trek to the beach on foot, the parking pass made going to/from the beach easy. Ningret park is huge and includes a dog park and plenty of space to walk. The cottage is not far from several RI favorites, including Watch Hill, Narragansett, and Matunuck. Charlestown is quiet, but it’s easy to get around. Anita texted back immediately whenever I had questions, and sent me some recommendations for the area. Great little beach cottage!

We loved staying at Anita's cottage. It was super clean and directly across from Green Hill Pond. We brought our bikes and kayaks, and we were out kayaking the pond almost every morning. Kayaked to an area where you could beach your kayaks and then walk a nice path to Charlestown Beach. The deck/screened porch, with an unobstructed view of the pond, was our favorite spot. Such a peaceful and friendly neighborhood. Kitchen was well stocked. Couldn't get the cable portion of the TV to work, so we played games and read instead, no biggie. Light blocking blinds in the main bedroom would be nice since the sun was up before 5:30, but it forced us up and out early to enjoy the day. We did a lot of exploring and found some interesting things to do in the area and Newport. Highly recommend Mews Tavern and Brickley's Ice Cream in Wakefield, Dan's Place in West Greenwich, Two Ten Oyster Bar in South Kingston (sit outside overlooking marina/food was good and reasonably priced) and Jiggers Diner South in North Kingston (fantastic breakfast - try the Johnny cakes). The Breachway Grille is good, too. Overall, we had a wonderful time!

Anita’s cottage is just about perfect for anyone looking for a simple, quiet, no-fuss holiday at the beach. The kitchen and bathroom are up-to-date, the screened-porch is just perfect and the rest of the home has everything you need. The sun sparkling across the pond in the morning is a great way to greet the day. All the beaches nearby are well above average. I had a delightful stay.

The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood across from Green Hill Pond. We spent most of our time either in the screened porch or on the deck taking in the beautiful water view. Anita is a wonderful host and ensures that the cottage is clean and the yard in great shape.

We had a wonderful stay at Anita’s cottage. The house was super clean and had everything we needed. We especially loved the bikes. We rode to yoga and the beach on the bikes. The pond access was awesome. Right across the street. We spent many sunrises on the shore of the pond. We definitely will be coming back!!
